Nice. I love creating a narrative around objects - such great opportunities for metaphors. I had a song about cassette tapes like this. We read in our house. Big readers since we were very young. Reposted!

Wow, this is ea vice idea for a song. I like it!

Nice ！　good vocal and rock guitar play !!

🎭🎭Fantastic Track Jeff🎭🎭
🎭I use to read a lot back in my early years until I got my first Accordion/Recorder/drums/Trumpet/piano
since then I rarely pick up a book..
As I got older it got even worse since I became a Pro Photographer ..
Then computers came along and I became an IT computer tech (Security & Network)

So I never found time to read …but I do live vicariously through my wife ( Jodi ) who reads & reviews books for famous authors 
She (we) also owns 2 small libraries etc etc
I can’t walk anywhere in my house without stumbling through piles of donated books waiting to be read & stamped and added to our libraries 

So I fully get your song Jeff 😊😊😊

fun sitar sound and production jim. solid original

Awesomeness, Jimmy! I agree… I used to be a voracious reader! I blame it on Smartphones and rabbit holes!!🥵…now.. I just read talking points and conspiracy theories and propaganda! Ha!! Good and catchy! Great play and singing, duder!!! Yes!! Good production on this, as well! Tops!!!Yes!!🏆🔥🙌🕺🏼🙏🙏🙏

Cool track – it’s got its own vibe and tells a story that sticks with you. 🎶❤️🎶

Awesome production and lyrics. Great video 👍👏

Takes me back to my librarian days ☺️ Great track Jimmy

A truly awesome work in every way, Jimmy!

This is a another song written during the pandemic in 2022. It's about the joy of reading! I know we don't read hardly anymore that's why we are pretty ignorant about science and math, look it up, don't take my word for it!! I still enjoy reading, it sparks my creativity, and opens up my imagination! It's really fabulous the trips we can make with our imagination by just reading. I whipped up seveal tales and weaved them all together into a Rock song. It is also about what happens to unread books that just turn to dust on our shelves. (Read H.G. Wells "The Time Machine" or at least watch the 1960 film!). I guess we will soon have no need for libraries!  Just I-phones! This is an adventure song, my Indiana Jones song!

      The video is brand new with loads of eye-candy for everybody. I thnk I finished it a few months ago. It'll take you on several exciting adventures!! I hope people enjoy it, we must continue to read books because when we stop reading books, then we will stop having independent thought and we become nothing more than brain dead sheep!  I'm sure that's what some evil people actually want! (Look what they did to Jimmy Kimmel!!). Read a book before they censor them and take them away! Take a look, crack a book, I guarenteed that you'll get hooked! Take care!🙏😎✌🏼

“UNREAD BOOK”

READ ME WHILE YOU CAN,     
I MIGHT JUST TURN TO DUST AND CRUMBLE IN YOUR HANDS,   
BUT I'LL NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME,               
LET ME PROVE TO YOU,    
I'M MORE THAN BORING WORDS DOWN POINTLESS AVENUES,      
I'M ALWAYS WORTH A SECOND LOOK, 
               
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,         
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,
  
READ ME, IF YOU CARE,    
WE'LL GO TO PLACES WHERE YOUR HEART WOULD NEVER DARE,      
IN A JOURNEY OF THE MIND,    
LEAVE IT UP TO ME,   
ALL YOU NEED IS THE YEARNING AND THE COURAGE TO BELIEVE,
JUST ONE LOOK WILL GET YOU HOOKED,
                       
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,           
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,     
     
A TRIP TO THE MOON OR AN ADVENTURE AT SEA,              
LET MY WORDS SET YOUR MIND FREE,                
A ROMANTIC RENDEZVOUS OR BUBBLE BATH BY CANDLELIGHT,
A CHRISTMAS DAY OR AN ARABIAN NIGHT,
            
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,             
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK, 

IF YOU'RE LONELY, COUNT ON ME,  
THERE'S NO END OF THE ROAD ONLY POSSIBILITIES,   
IMAGINATION'S ALL IT TOOK,
             
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,             
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK.

**I NEVER USE A.I. IN ANY OF MY SONGS OR VIDEOS!** Hi everybody, my name is Jim and I’m a songwriter, I've written over 300 songs, I play guitar, bass, piano, and am an okay lyricist.  I play all types of music and have my own recording studio.  I use no A.I. or DAW or any computers to make my songs or my videos, all the instruments are played by me live on a multitrack studio recorder and Charlie, my vocalist, sings most of my songs and also plays the Harmonica on several tracks. I use video clips from Motion Array or Pexals or Pixabay for my videos. I'm not a pro or a great musician but I do what I can with the tools that I have! I belong to the "Keep Humans In Music Movement" (KHMM)! We're NOT perfect but we're REAL! Thanks everyone for listening and the world needs more music now, real music made by HUMANS not MACHINES! So let's all sing a song with our own voices, please! I do not consent to any of my songs or videos being used or sampled or lifted in any way or fashion. Take care!👍😎✌🏼.
