Life IS a long hard labor
Here are the lyrics in case you don't get the full effect from the video
Life can sometimes come
in an uncomfortable direction
But although that life is hard and long
it's good
Life is a hard type of labor
Life is a long type of labor
But it's good
Life, although it's hard, and long,
it's good
Life is hard
is long
is good

riley, i think i'm in love with you. i would love to have that on my ipod. jack johnson has nothin on you!!
For all you people out there who don't know this.......he wrote that song and about 5 others. Heeelarious.
Ok. So part of me is laughing to the point of peeing my pants, and the other part of me wants to slit my wrists it's so depressing. But the kids is actually, really talented! I was really hoping you'd post this. Thanks!!!
Riley is ONE OF A KIND! That boy has my heart.
I see some U2-ish type of truths budding from Riley's lyrics (although not obvious, I cannot think of a higher compliment for an upcoming artist)! Put me at the top of the waiting list for the album, please. Is it on Amazon yet?
Riley you Rock!!! Go on you tube and watch Tyler Talbot. He's Awesome too. Girlfriend there is a special post on my blog just for you. Check it out!
SO FLIPPING CUTE!! How can you stand it EM. I think I would be pinching him all day, is he for real??? I really hope he will look up my MCKINLEY when he gets home from his mission.
But Amanda--life is long and hard but it is "good". I sense the optimism coming through there. But yeah, I found it used all my energy to suppress the giggles when he sang it to me. He's a way cool kid that one.
Becky we will keep McKinley on the short list. ::wink wink::
Wow that was deep. Do you think he could write something for me to sing at Molly's wedding? Wait...maybe he should sing that song.
#1--omg...I love the guitar chords and the song seems like it could actually be a real hit, however...
#2--I am thinking of calling Health & Welfare--what kind of a sweatshop does that kid live in?
Wow! I see some serious raw talent. That was angst ridden! Where does that come from? I'm thinking a future Kurt Cobain.
I have NO clue how you contained yourself on that one. I kept waiting to hear a snicker, chuckle or a complete teary belly laugh like I would have done!
The jump off the bed at the end definantly my very favorite part. Someday he might possibly hate you for that. Or maybe he'll be a rich star?
He is a good sport to let you video him and share it with us! It was cute, good memories!

He begged me to put it up so everyone can see. "Are you done uploading it yet mom?" I can't believe I have such a cool kid.
Hey! I found you through Jessica. Watch out girls, boys with guitars seem to always have good luck with the ladies.
Too cute!! Great mother's day gifts too!
Wow!!!! has he grown up. How cute was that??? American Idol watch out.
Does he take lessons? When I first read it, I thought childbirth type of labor for some reason. And I was wondering why your son would be writing and singing a song about childbirth. But, I get it now. He needs to hook up with "Destiny's Mama"!
