Songs about James (blues, member, title, cover, classic)

abscenceofsanity · 04-26-2008, 04:57 AM

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
