I am a huge fan of James and Bob, I read all the books and I love them. I would be very happy if James would write a new sequel. James and Bob are both real heroes and nothing will ever change that! ♥ ♥ ♥

Gde ste nabavili sve knjige o Bobu? Ja sam takodje veliki fan, pokusavam da nadjem u regionu ali nema ih. Moram ih naci

[@aleksandra068]

@@TheKjarax na engleskom sam ih čitala, ali ima i prevoda sigurno. Probajte da nađete. Na hrvatskom je naslov Fantastični mačak Bob

[@TheKjarax]

@@aleksandra068 nema ih sada nigde, ni u Hrvatsko jgdesuradili prevode svh knjiga. Citala sam prvu to ima i u Srbiji, ali ostale ne mogu da nadjem u celom regionu. Ima na Scribdu online ali ja bih knjigu.

[@starquant]

RIP Bob... 🌈🌈🌈. They say memories are golden well maybe that is true. I never wanted memories, I only wanted you. A million times I needed you, a million times I cried. If love alone could have saved you you never would have died. In life I loved you dearly, In death I love you still. In my heart you hold a place no one could ever fill. If tears could build a stairway and heartache make a lane, I’d walk the path to heaven and bring you back again. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Good performance - James has the right voice for this song ! From Germany with love to James & Bob !! 😽😘

[@pamslicklen1946]

I just love James and Bob, hopefully Bob is still with us, love to see another book in the near future!

[@connellwalker7873]

A great look for James and great sound for him and The Strays. A challenging piece well done.

[@No4Marise]

Greetings from across the miles, James and Monika. I am so touched by your life story, James and SO incredibly heartbroken 💔 by the passing of your sweetest best friend. I adore cats and am still trying to mend my very own broken heart and crushed spirit as I (we), lost 5 of our precious fur babies all in a matter of 10 months. You're so spot on, James when you said 2020 was a shitty year 😭 I cannot get enough of you dear James and your incredible BOB. I've watched all your videos and LOVE ALL your songs. I am truly happy that you have Monika, Bandit & Gizmo to fill that hole in your soul. With warm Christian Love, Flo from SOUTH AFRICA Sunshine 🌞 and 🎶 Music 🎤🎸 🎵 🎶 is a healing to my soul

Bob ❤️❤️❤️❤️ James

[@luluuularekaso3582]

James, I like your song! Love to you and Bob. God Bless you both

[@janebrown1937]

Really impressive feedback. I have been following you since I think, 2015 when I first found your book. You and Bob have accomplished so m uch good work since your success and its wonderful you have given back. All of us that have read about and seen the movie of your life have fallen in love with you and Bob. I hope the rest of your life and Bobs are wonderful and fulfilling. PS-I have a cat, too that can give me a high five! Love, Jane, age 74

[@mattimikkonen2747]

You remind me of Shannon Hoon. I'm glad that you and Bob found each other. Maybe if Shannon had a cat like him, he would still be here. My wife's cats lift me up when I'm going through bad times

[@raincloud7817]

Very good !!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@janesouth2943]

A powerful song, cheered me up

[@MikkeMan]

Yes, this is a very upbeat and positive song. Puts your face into smile immediately.

Awesome performance. Greetings from the US.

[@Edboy691]

It's great to see James still doing public performances I really hope when I eventually go to London to meet him and hopefully bob, early on January 2017 I found a stray kitten that changed my life the mother cat did not have the ability to feed all her kittens and the only one that hardly survived my eddy and I had to save him he was full of fleas low in blood and could hardly walk his back legs would shake uncontrollably and we thought he would only live thru the week but ones year and a month later he is strong and healthy and most of all happy, I am so happy since I have found my boy he has made my life change drastically for the better, from what James has let us all know about his dark times I really understand how much something like a cat can be so much more than just a pet they can literally save a life or two

[@Tezhars]

Bless you and your cat! Wishing you the best.

[@FromHere2Where]

He's still doing public performances because he has too. Look at my other comment posted above: Just saw your 8 mins. Docu - What the heck??? Those scumbags just use James to sell millions of books and made a movie and they didn't even give him enough to buy his house outright? Didn't you get an honest agent, James? Get yourself a good lawyer mate. Bloodsuckers will all go to HELL!!! Your story will not end there, keep telling your story, James, we are with you!!!

[@Edboy691]

FromHere2Where nice, I hope James does some exclusive type sales where his fans can buy stuff from him so he and bob can live comfortably for life, wow the studio done that to James I’m not surprised a studio fucked a person over but to do use your life story than not compensate you for exploiting you that’s some serial killer type of mentality, I really hope James and bob get the treatment they deserve and the studio gets a black eye on its name so people can know to get a good deal with them so they can’t use anyone for monetary gain

[@FromHere2Where]

@@Edboy691 Bob passed away last week. James is probably devastated.

One of my favourite NIN songs (and Cash songs too). Such a powerful piece. You put a lot of emotion into it. It suits your voice.

[@viroxxx]

Yo creo que James tiene un tono de voz que es apropiada para cantar rock y pop, pero necesita estudiar y trabajar un poco en esa voz. Tiene potencial vocal.

[@f1s372]

😍i wish i can stroke BOB one day.... love malaysia

[@wendymaree]

James, love you and Bob, but can I ask for/suggest more upbeat, positive type of songs? This would help your emotional equilibrium as well as attracting a wider audience. We love your story for the light it shines into our lives. I just wish your music did as well.

[@marianp.741]

Wendy Peterson James writes his own words about his terrible past life. Hence the songs are not always ‘upbeat’ and ‘positive ‘ as you say you would like. No offence.

[@MikkeMan]

What makes you think James is targeting for larger audience?

[@lydia5649]

Hurt is a masterpiece Did you have listen to "Hurt" by NIN both with David Bowie and Cover by Johnny Cash. Just musical gem 🎶

[@jjcat2011]

ボブがほとんど映らないね＾＾

[@user-bm9ty5eh9r]

You are talented, brilliant.This song touch my soul.l respect you James.

[@mintleaves1393]

Man, talk about singing off key. Wow, he's really hard to listen to! I'm suprised Bob didn't run away. However, James sound is winey like a cat, maybe that's their common ground connection.

[@MikkeMan]

Guitars were great! James's voice was out of tune and that really bothered me throughout the whole song. Seems like nobody wants to say this tedious truth. However as much as every James fan hates me now, I still love James and Bob's story.

[@lydia5649]

"Hurt" isn't easy to play. Only genius such as David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails and Johnny Cash are able to make it perfect. James Bowen did it great with strays friends. it's a great tribute and he deserved respect as he didn't choose easy songs. NIN lover it's always a pleasure to listen to this masterpiece. Lyrics and music

[@clintdenman3037]

Good story but does he realise that he definatly is out of tune.?.
