This is such a sweet and lovely song. I really love what you guys did with it and really enjoy the lyrics, especially:
"In everything I think and do there's a hint of you".
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Ember

Great duo. Both the vocals are really good, sounds as if you've been singing together a long time.
Enjoyed my listen.

very well written sang and blended, definitely a kick back in time when songs were well thought out and delivered with adult phrasing rather than the " lets get drunk and screw " mentality of much of today's music. Much enjoyed !!!

Reminds a little of a song called "Something stupid" performed by Nancy Sinatra and Dean Martin. Very clever writing and performing style. Congrats to both of you. Rob

Really nice. floydjane used exactly the right words: clever writing, nice instrumentation, good vocals. Only he used more adjectives, which were much deserved!
You nailed the string sound, too.
So cool. Way cool!

Hello, Tom
This is so cute and lovely! I can feel the influence of Bacharach and Jobim in this tune, but your originality is also strong. The chord progression from "in everything I think and do" is really nice. It is rather fresh that there is no reverb (or little reverb). The duet also seems to be very fun. It reminds me of "Something Stupid" sung by Sinatra and his daughter long ago. I was carried out. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Sensational and innovative.
Lyrically you have produced an outstanding combination.
This has to be one of the best BiaB productions seen in many years.
And the scat and the breaks add great color.
Did I say sensational? Yes, but I'll say it again: Sensational!

Wow - what a tune! The male and female vocals on this one pair together perfectly. It sounds so sweet and sincere. Very pretty, and very nice on the ears It makes me think of a musical for some reason. A very solid listen - the groove and melodies are addictive! Great work and thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

Very fun and clever!! Very well delivered (female vocal is great). The vibe is perfect. I could see this playing with a silly love scene in a movie...two young lovers walking along the boardwalk and being playful...something like that. Enjoyed much!! Take care. Greg

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
