The piano/cello/Janice combination - well, that's about as good as it gets... a gorgeous vocal.

Floyd,
Thank you, I couldn`t agree more about all the praise for Janice`s singing!

You two should be very proud of this one.


That`s very kind, Mario!

What an absolutely beautiful song! I love the write, and the simple arrangement allows all the feelings and emotions to ring out in this intimately personal song. Of course, Janice is a great choice for the vocals. As usual, you nailed it, Janice.

Loved this one!

Thanks y'all. I was very touched when Robert asked me to sing a composition that was so personal to him. I'm glad you liked it!

Tom,
I was a fairly new writer when this song began and remember getting help from my guitar teacher to make that low part fit with the chords I had. I also really like the way Janice phrased those parts here.
Many thanks for your listen and comments.

What a cool composition, and I am pretty sure that this is Janice's best vocal performance so far.

Rob


Rob,
Thank you!
This song is probably a a departure from J&B`s Americana material - I`m biased,of course, but I also think it brought out the best in her voice.

What a fantastic ballad.

The unmistakable genius of Janice's voice, and with such a perfect clean backing.

Very, very nice.

Torrey,
I`m glad you enjoyed this song.It was harder than I`d thought to find the right piano track,and Bud`s tweaking really helped it sit nicely behind Janice`s vocal.
