my lyrical content

April 2010
I’m finally glad to get my music out there so you can get it on my site. I have written about a  thousand songs and I have other older albums but these 3 that I have out now are the ones that I am the most proud of. My lyrics deal with some of the issues that many people young and old deal with in their lives. I try to put a positive spin on most of the songs but there are a couple on “The Showman Empire” that I wrote when I was in the midst of my recovery from some neurological brain damage. I was in despair at the time, to say the least, and the song is quite intense. I really don’t know how I managed to get through that album with the sickness that I was feeling but my writing and music was all that I had. The song is called “Why Me” if you would like to check that out when I get my albums ready for download.
I have experienced much anxiety and depression in my life and I know that many people also feel that emptiness inside so I try to express my feelings in my songs and also try to put a positive spin on it because there is always hope in everyone’s life and all things pass eventually. That’s how it’s been in my life so most of my lyrics are geared towards that but also I have lyrics with some general thoughts about life. I wrote a song for my brother’s BYU team and I will eventually have that as a free download but until then I hope you will be patient with the construction of my site.

Thanks for stopping by. 

Later…….

TJ

    If you’re going to be a “true” artist, you have to bring your audience along for the ride. That means that your songs should be honest explorations into the things you’re dealing with in life. Thanks for doing this.

    ..and I, personally, really like the “Showman Empire” CD.
