Truly blessed. One of the most recognizable, versatile, hauntingly beautiful, and powerful voices in music. Should have had a lot more attention. For those who are just discovering, welcome to a world of songs that will stay with you.
this was one of the first Dishwalla songs I was exposed to, i remember listening to your voice singing this song on repeat for hours in headphones. It still resonates inside my chest. Was so glad to see you were still making music so I could keep listening to your gift.
5 years ago today we had the conversation about me coming out to Santa Barbara to provide backing vocals. Fast forward to today, and you have helped me co-write as well produce my debut EP-Cotswold. I can never thank you enough for everything, and the beautiful music my brother. Cheers ! 😀🎶
When I listen to this song now I see visions of the memorials that spring up too often these days - Paris, Brussels.... this 'stripped' version touches me so deeply, it makes me want to immediately hug my daughter. Thank you for including it on Stripped.
I certainly will do that, JR! She enjoys your music as well - which is quite a compliment, coming from a 14-yr-old. Happy New Year to you and your family - I hope 2017 is full of all good things for you.
just got in my CD from jr . Richards what a nice guy he sent me a post card with his a message of thanks for buying a beautiful album. love this music if you enjoyed it send a little love his way ! buy a CD enjoy ! I saw Diswalla in Nashville TN back in the 90s at exit in I've always liked this band and jr. Richards voice is awesome.
I love how this clean version focuses on the power of your voice. The original used to give me chills. This one brings them back. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Dr. J.R.This song has made me ball my eyes out over the years! It used make think of my wife Traci but I am learning after 15 years my candle shrine has almost burned to the ground for HER!
2022 and still loving this stripped version on candleburn. Awesome voice and performance. This stripped album needs a vinyl release!! ( I can dream) lol
I find it absolutely amazing that an artist as talented and busy as J.R. has the humility to make the time to acknowledge comments from his fans on this and every other website where his music could be found. I am a fan not just because of his musical talents and songwriting abilities, but that humility is a huge part of it as well. He is the ultimate rock star. God bless you, brother!
Merci JR pour ton talent et pour nous faire voyager par ta musique et ta voix si unique. Je ne me lasse pas d'écouter tes chansons et j'espère un jour te voir en France!
Love your music,voice,and lyrics.Simply one of the best.i look up to you with what I do in my own band,and the way I write and sing.Never stop making music!
On Vineland past the candle shrine that burns on every night for someone she lets herself go like an angel in the snow she lays down on her back down on her back - she goes take me over when I'm gone take me over make me strong take me over when I'm gone will they burn for me On Vineland past the candle shrine that melts into the street design she waits - for someone tonight she'll give herself away she'll break apart all by her by herself its so easy how we come undone and take me over when I'm gone take me over make me strong take me over when I'm gone will they burn for me she pulls me in and strips me down she pulls me in and turns me out she pulls me in and strips me down to the ground On Vineland past the candle shrine that melts into the street design she waits tonight she'll give herself away she'll break apart all by her by herself its so easy how we come undone take me over when I'm gone take me over make me strong take me over when I'm gone will they burn will they burn for me (take me over) will they burn for me (take me over) will they burn for me (take me over) will they burn for me (take me over) come on make me strong (take me over) will they burn for me take me over come on will they burn for me (take me over) will they burn for me ooohh take me over

Will they burn for me?
On Vineland past the candle shrine that burns on every night
for someone
she lets herself go
like an angel in the snow
she lays down on her back
down on her back - she goes
take me over when I'm gone
take me over make me strong
take me over when I'm gone
will they burn for me
On Vineland past the candle shrine that melts into the street design
she waits
- for someone
tonight she'll give herself away
she'll break apart all by her by herself
its so easy how we come undone
and take me over when I'm gone
take me over make me strong
take me over when I'm gone
will they burn for me
she pulls me in and strips me down
she pulls me in and turns me out
she pulls me in and strips me down
to the ground
On Vineland past the candle shrine that melts into the street design
she waits
tonight she'll give herself away
she'll break apart all by her by herself
its so easy how we come undone
take me over when I'm gone
take me over make me strong
take me over when I'm gone
will they burn
will they burn for me
(take me over)
will they burn for me
(take me over)
will they burn for me
(take me over)
will they burn for me
(take me over)
come on make me strong
(take me over)
will they burn for me
take me over
come on will they burn for me
(take me over)
will they burn for me
ooohh
take me over
:-)
JR you're the man bro. Dishwalla is always the first choice when I want music my fingers just sort of find their way on your albums, weather a CD (what's that!?) or Spotify. Looooove your music and thank you for making it

이분 아는 한국인은 드물 듯 DISHWALLA 노래 좋아했는데

I don't yet... but I am working on it :)
