James Taylor's "October Road" I looove this cd!
There's a song on it called "Belfast To Boston" check out the lyrics: Belfast To Boston (James Taylor) There are rifles buried in the countryside By the rising of the moon May they lie there long forgotten Till they rust away into the ground Who will bend this ancient hatred Will the killing to an end Who will swallow long injustice Take the devil for a countryman Who will say "This far no further, O' Lord If I die today" Send no weapons, no more money Send no vengeance across these seas Just the blessing of forgiveness For my new countryman and me Missing brothers, martyred fellows Silent children in the ground Could we but hear them would they not tell us "Time to lay God's rifle down" Anyway... nice stuff. Good old James Taylor... still got it! He entered the pop charts on billboard at number 4 with this album... amazing! Check it out. |

Get the special edition with the extra tracks and video | |

Yeah, this new album was actually good enough to be my favorite James Taylor CD. And actually it's probably in my top 30 favorites of all time.
Belfast to Boston is the weakest song on there though My favorite is Caroline, I See You. | |

That's a great one 2, but I wouldn't consider "Belfast To Boston" weak... then again, I loved "Shed A Little Light" also (from the New Moonshine cd). I'm just really diggin' this one, much better than Hourglass. |

Yeah, Shed a little Light was a great song too.
I loved Hourglass, but I find October Road to be more consistent. Not a weak song on it really. | |
