Songs about James
 
howdy,
I'm trying to get together some songs that are about a james (or jim or jimmy)... i thought here might be the place to ask, does anyone know songs with the name in their title?
I've only found two, through previous exposure to the artist, and even then I've only somewhat stumbled across them.
James- Blue October
The Facts About Jimmy- Shawn Colvin.

my boyfriends name is james, ive found that a few of these songs kinda describe him, and that its a generic enough name that theres a few out there. plus its a good way of discovering new musicians. I tried my own name, but there wasnt much ellen out there

If a girl did something like this for me i'd think she was a bit psycho , but you never know he might enjoy it.

Anyway

Jimmy The Exploder - White Stripes

I'm sure you're in a much better position to say if that describes him or not.

"Ohh Jimmy, where you want to an explosion now?
Ohhh monkey, are you seeing red now?"

Very romantic.

You never know , that might describe him perfectly
Ellen might tell us.

You totally stole mine! I love that song "...so goodnight you moonlight ladies..."

um...You can put a James Dio song on there! (probably not what you were looking for though...I don't think theres a Dio song about James)

I'm not doing it for him. Bah ha ha. No, its more a way to fight boredom, and yeah, find new music. It's interesting to do it with names and find songs similar to people, but random words work just as well... sometimes. Aardvark probably wouldn't.

There's no such thing as a good song. Its all a matter of taste. And some people just have no taste. Like me. At least I recognise it. Woohoo, David Bowie.

Hehe... monkey. describes him well.
