hmmmm I never thought about that way. I really just thought he made it up for fun...he may really be on to something there. lol Especially since we know he doesn't fit into a pre existing genre or mold.

:) Definitely an interesting article. As far as the name goes I like it and yes it does set Taylor apart in a way from just being known as a "soul" or "r&b" singer I think. Taylor has made so many songs sound so good in my opinion. One of the pop songs he sang on the show "Trouble" by Ray LaMontage was one of my favorite performances during Season 5. Also look how well he did with the Beatles classic "Something In The Way She Moves".

for posting this.

Good article. I, for one, believe Taylor is simply creating his own path. He just wants people to enjoy his music and how he delivers it. With passion and soul. That's our Taylor....period.

I fully agree - Taylor is making his own road, and it's up to us who love him to decide if we follow him or leave him behind. Me? I'm in it for the long haul.

Me too! As long as he keeps singing I'll keep listening. There is something so different about my "obsession" with Taylor. He has a style and personality that's so down to earth and real. I'll be a fan forever.

I think that's just one of the reasons I enjoy him. He's a real person, not a "rock god."

AMEN TO THAT!!!!!!!!

OMG, dinner smells so good right now. I'll be back later. :)

*salivating* What is it? My family brought my brother and daughter dinner and I don't get any (as usual).....

dont feel bad Tyggy its the end of the month when I go to bed hungry and wake up hungry and stay awake all day hungry.. (sigh) this is getting old

*sighs* I know, honey. I wish I could do more for you.

Me too sweetie.

It sucks when you go to bed hungry and get up knowing there is nothing in the cupboards. For two and half years I went without so my boys, Jonathan and Eric, would have something to eat. I was always angry at my daughter for not doing better especially after her food stamps ended. *)

BTW, it was a simple meal of cube steak cooked in gravy and poured over sliced potatoes. Nothing fancy!

That sounds pretty good. And just you wait until we get up north - I can cook some really yummy stuff if Connie'll let me take over her kitchen.....
