Extremely late on this one. Mea Culpa. It's all been said. Well done.
Regards,
Bob Thank you Bob! Janice OK...y'all need to be aware that this song killed my tea kettle. I had water on to boil, but when this song came on I had to crank up the volume and listen to it over and over. Consequently, I didn't hear the kettle whistling, and it boiled all the water out and turned the kettle red hod, melting the plastic handle. Bummer.
Very fun song, well delivered by all parties involved! Loved the guitar work, and Janice had her ABCs in order with a very Animated, Believable and Compelling performance!
You have more song-writing nerve than I do.. I'm not so sure I'd be willing (as a man) to write a song about what women want. But it certainly works as one point of view on a very complex topic! Pat, it is very nice to see you back here. Thank you for the kind remarks and I guess I owe you a tea kettle Janice

Of course, Janice nailed the vocals. Who wouldn't expect that? Great job on the guitar work. And a good solid write from Leon and you. Makes for a really nice song, fun to listen to!
Steve Much appreciated Steve. Peter

Well, well, well... Ms. Janice, I would presume the lyrics were especially meaningful to you. The way you laid them down in the flow of the music -- the laid-back timing and the (seemingly) casual placement of them -- causes me to imagine that you'd probably know your way around a jazz ballad. To my ears, you possess the quality that the late Rosemary Clooney described as "talking a song", meaning that you make the lyrics sound like a story is being told. Personally, I'd love to hear you perform something a capella. "PeterF" (as in Frampton? ), I didn't know you played the gee-tar, boss, but I sho' know it, now! You're really slick with your "pick", dude! Also, the rhythm, the horn arrangement, along with the rest of the instruments, makes the song a whole bunch'a fun t' lissen to... "Leon", your lyrics command attention. As "Pat Marr" stated, "you have more song-writing nerve than I do.. I'm not so sure I'd be willing (as a man) to write a song about what women want. But it certainly works as one point of view on a very complex topic!"Agreed! But then, again, I don't think it would be all that complex to "write a song about what women want". Myself, I'd just fill in the verses with all of the things I've done "wrong" in a relationship, and then add the line, "Baby, I'm sorry!" to each and every one of them! Hah! Also, take note of the fact that, according to the genetic scientists, the "X" -- the female chromosome, which women have two of -- is present also alongside the "Y", in the male chromosome configuration, "XY". The "female" side that "peterF" mentioned is almost without exception in all of us males... Now, where did I put that dog-gone "X" chromosome??? I just know it's in here, somewhere... LOREN (a.k.a. "bluage") Thank you Loren. Bud has told me the same thing about talking a song. I appreciate your kind words. We both feel that the most important thing for any song of any genre is that it has soul. That makes it for us and I do my best to try to sing that way. And when you get handed a great song like this it is so much fun. Janice To Peter, Leon and "the incomparable Janice Merritt"
