This song could be about anyones long journey to reach their goal, or just a romantic story about someone coming home. The person taking the journey can be male or female, whatever you're comfortable with. It's not exactly cheery, but it's not sad either!
I hope you like it.

You really sound great....and I'm not a songwriting critic, but know what I like...and I think you have great talent. Since you don't want to sing in front of a group.... make some CD's! Share that beautiful music!

Jomi · #17 May 22nd, 2007

Thanks Aunt doty, you may not be a critic but your views are welcome.
It's not that I don't want to sing to a group, I'd really love to!
I was at a little club just last night where people sing, some with musical instruments, some without. There's a whole range of types and abilities and I know that I'd fit right in, they've asked me a few times to sing a song or two, but I always refuse, I'm just a nervous wreck! Maybe I'll try hypnotherapy.......again!

Hi Jomi,

who can argue? it has a classic, more like epic quallity. I like it alot. Somehow, it reminds me of a young Gordon Lightfoot. and the recording is pristine with clean finger picking and just the ominescence of reverb.

pamelody · #19 May 22nd, 2007

I agree with Aunt Doty that a CD would be wonderful. As far as I can see that little club is missing out, but with all the places around the globe represented with your family here, you really get around Jomi -

Can't wait for the next one!!

Jomi · #20 May 22nd, 2007

Pamelody, I've made a few CDs for family and friends, I'd be happy to send one to you and Aunt Doty.

I was going to re-record most of the songs I've done, I have a new mic now AND I know how to use the noise removal tool in my software.

pamelody · #21 May 22nd, 2007

I am grateful Joni for your generous offer - a million thanks!!

Another great one Jomi

I'm listening to it (for the third time) as I type. You have the wonderful ability to touch the heart, and create images in the mind with your songs.
I truly hope you can get over the nerves and perform live, imagine real people clapping, instead of smilies

beautiful jomi, like the soft touch

Jomi · #24 May 23rd, 2007

Thanks a lot Skinnymanager, I'm really happy that you like the songs, especially that you empathise with them.

Thank you Tomg123

Pamelody - your welcome

A few more of these and I've got a free Jomi CD. I'm beginning to think you should stop posting so you don't mess up a future record deal.

Jomi · #26 May 23rd, 2007

Thanks Fly135, I hope I can keep writing so that you can fill that CD, I'm really proud that I can finally share my music - even though it's not live - you're very welcome to that for free!

Thank you Starsailor

I've been thinking about the uk 'get together', but I'm not big on drinking and I don't think I can get an industrial strength tambourine.

That's cool Jomi the most important thing is that you love playing your music and we love listening to your songs.

Regards

Chris

+1. Three of Jomi's songs are already on my iPod - just awaiting the rest of the album!

cshude · #29 May 23rd, 2007

Another great one. I love the atmosphere created by the reverb. Enough to create space, but the vocals still come through clear. Well done.

Aunt Doty · #30 May 23rd, 2007

Jomi, The CD offer is so nice! Tell me what I need to do! Sounds like everybody is interested, so maybe you just need to post them all and we could download and make our own CD. Thanks!!
