Taylor Hicks - Record Company Blues

Even as early as March 2007, it seemed Taylor and his record company were not the best fit as he seems to drop a few clues with his tag of Van Morrison's St Dominic Preview (thanks to Cochem for tag info and lyrics)

And we're over in a 52nd Street apartment,
Socializing with the whino few,
Just to be hip and get wet with the jet set.
But they're flying too high to see my point of view.


"And the restaurant tables are completely covered.
The record company has paid out for the wine.
You got everything in the world you ever wanted
Right about now your face should wear a smile."

Contrary to media reports, both Hicks and J Records confirm the split was mutual.

IdolMashups...Van Morrison tags from St Dominic Preview

And we're over in a 52nd Street apartment,

Socializing with the whino few,

Just to be hip and get wet with the jet set.

But they're flying too high to see my point of view.

And the restaurant tables are completely covered.

The record company has paid out for the wine.

You got everything in the world you ever wanted

Right about now your face should wear a smile.

Cochem, thanks for the info. I will edit my description

[artbychristine]

explain to me again why he was dropped... It's unreal.

Guess it's just too hard to sell MUSIC these days.

LOL Clive's the one who got the boot today. There is justice after all.

[sriteisrite]

Taylor Hicks is the real deal!

[rajrae]

Wow, that is so incredible....

[oldikins]

The Distance comes out on March 10th. Give it a listen. Its more Taylor style. Also, check out the video Whats Right Is Right.

Taylor you are the best.

Your new CD is awesome too.

If anyone hasn't bought it yet....get to Target and buy at least one. It was released August 12,2008 of course and all I can say is WOW.

Clive is going to rue the day he lost Taylor. He's got a fan in me for life.

[dsstroud]

Clive sucks. If he would give this guy some money and a studio and leave him alone he could produce some great stuff. The thing about Taylor is he is authentic. The best compliment I think an artist can get.

Josh's guitar - "you send me!" and that gray-haired guy, well he's not too bad either! :-)

The record label and him were fighting for creative control.
