Michael Grimm won America's Got Talent last night, besting 10-year-old Jackie Evancho. Jackie's career is already in high gear. What an amazing voice she has. See her in the second video below singing with her idol, Sarah Brightman, and in the first video Michael Grimm sings When a Man Loves a Woman.

James Kole: Songs for Freedom
I received an email from James Kole whose new album Songs for Freedom is out. I like it! Go to his You Tube channel to watch and listen.
My favorite is The Liberty Tree:
Lyrics:
While they danced around the liberty tree
Their backs were turned, they could not see
The axe and the irons of captivity
While they danced around the liberty tree
They'd been eating the fruit that the tree had grown
From the seeds that forgotten fathers had sown
They'd not tilled new earth, no sweat no toil
Their hands had never touched the soil
While they danced around the liberty tree
Their backs were turned, they could not see
The axe and the irons of captivity
While they danced around the liberty tree
Under the tree's branches they dozed in the shade
In the cool afternoon they laughed and played
They leaned on the trunk to rest their bones
The sacred fire was turning to stone
While they danced around the liberty tree
Their backs were turned, they could not see
The axe and the irons of captivity
While they danced around the liberty tree
And around the tree they lived their lives
Free from struggle and sacrifice
An extravagant party, a royal masquerade
The debt must be repaid
While they danced around the liberty tree
Their backs were turned, they could not see
The axe and the irons of captivity
While they danced around the liberty tree

Kevin Skinner is America's Got Talent Super Singer
Kevin Skinner is a self-described "country boy." He is an unemployed farmer. The video isn't great but the audio is plenty good. Enjoy this country boy's singing!
