Colin James
Colin James (born Colin James Munn, August 17, 1964) is a Canadian singer-songwriter, guitarist, and record producer, who plays in the blues, rock, and neo-swing genres.
Biography
Early years
James was born in Regina, Saskatchewan. He and his band The Hoodoo Men opened for Stevie Ray Vaughan for several tour dates in the United States. According to legend, Vaughan himself suggested the stage name "Colin James", because when announced over arena P.A. systems, "Munn" sounded like "Mud". James also played guitar on Richard Marx's song "Thunder and Lightning".
Rock and swing band careers
In 1988, following his association with Vaughan, James released his self-titled debut album, which yielded several international hit singles, as did the followup Sudden Stop. He presaged the mid-1990s swing music revival with his Colin James and the Little Big Band project, which released a successful first CD in 1993, followed by two others in 1998 and 2006, as well as a Christmas album in 2007.
James's worldwide popularity waned somewhat in the late 1990s, but he continued to release albums in rock, blues, and acoustic styles, in addition to his Little Big Band. In 2005, he gave a command performance for Queen Elizabeth II during her visit to his home province of Saskatchewan.
Colin James (bishop)
Colin Clement Walter James (20 September 1926–10 December 2009) was an Anglican bishop in the Church of England.
James was educated at Aldenham School and King's College, Cambridge before his ordained ministry which began with a curacy at Stepney, after which he was a chaplain of Stowe School. He was ordained a deacon at Trinitytide 1952 and priest a year later, both by William Wand, Bishop of London, at St Paul's Cathedral.
Following his title, he was a producer of religious programmes for the BBC and then (his final appointment before being ordained to the episcopate) vicar of St Peter's Bournemouth. James was the first suffragan Bishop of Basingstoke in the Diocese of Winchester, beginning with his consecration as a bishop on 2 February 1973 at St Paul's Cathedral by Michael Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury. He held his suffragan see with a residentiary canonry of Winchester Cathedral.
He was translated to become diocesan Bishop of Wakefield and was enthroned at Wakefield Cathedral on 9 February 1977. He was returned to the Diocese of Winchester as the diocesan Bishop of Winchester; he was enthroned at Winchester Cathedral on 28 June 1985, having been elected two weeks prior and confirmed (officially becoming the Bishop) at some intervening point. He retired in April 1995.
Colin James (journalist)
Colin Charles James (born 25 November 1944) is an experienced New Zealand political journalist and commentator. He is a life member of the Parliament of New Zealand's press gallery and has a focus on party and election politics. He has correctly forecast the winner of 14 of the last 15 general elections.
James writes a weekly column in the Otago Daily Times, a monthly column in Management Magazine and previously wrote a weekly column in The New Zealand Herald. He was formerly editor of the National Business Review and has also written for the Far Eastern Economic Review.
He is the New Zealand correspondent of Oxford Analytica and has written a number of books and presented numerous papers at conferences both in New Zealand and overseas, including through his role with the Institute for Governance and Policy Studies at the University of Victoria.

Lonely Avenue
by: Colin JamesWell, my room has got two windows
But the sun don't ever shine through
And I've been so sad and lonely
Since I broke off, baby, with you
I live on a lonely avenue
Since you said that we were through
I feel so sad and lonely
And it's all because of you
I could cry or I could die
I live on a lonely avenue
Yes I do, lonely avenue
Well, my pillow is made of lead
And my cover is made of stone
And I toss and turn every night
I'm not used to being alone
I live on a lonely avenue
Since you said that we were through
And I feel so sad and lonely
And it's all because of you, baby
I could cry, yeah, I could die
I live on a lonely avenue
Don't you know children it's a lonely avenue
Play your guitar
Oh children, this is a lonely avenue
Well, my pillow is made of lead
And my cover is made of stone
But I toss and turn every night
I'm not used to being alone
I live on a lonely avenue
Since you said that we were through
And I feel so sad and lonely
And it's all because of you
I could cry or I could die
Oh, I live on a lonely avenue
Lord, ain't this a lonely avenue
Well, well, it's a lonely avenue, tell him now
