Bud Janice & Floyd
I "discovered" this a while ago - it now has the feel of one of those songs you know & look forward to when it plays.
It has a great melody, and is beautifully performed. Love everything about it.
Peter
Thanks Peter. It's a great compliment to know that you look forward to hearing it. We appreciate that. J&B

Hello, Janice & Bud and floyd
Great Rock song with Janice's beautiful voice.
Well produced video.
Superb Mix.
And very nice collaboration.
This song is so good.
I much prefer your rock songs.
Because, to tell the truth, I am weak in real blues songs a little bit though I like blues feelings.
Very enjoyable listen.
Best Regards.

B,J&f, this is a great write. Beautifully sung and the production is pro all the way. Nice comping on the guitar parts and floyd's finishing touches on the harmonies adds a lot. I also really liked the effect on the vocal. Your usual high standard applies to all areas and it's good to see you exploring further out into other genres. It showcases your versatility. My boots are pretty old also! Tom

Bud Janice and Floyd,
You have really excelled yourselves on this one! I liked everything about it.
Great production and sound and catchy melody.
Janice your voice is like velvet and when Floyd joins in for the harmonies it's just stunning.
I also loved Floyd's vocal sound on the "don't go" bit near the end.
Superb,
Rec Thanks a lot for commenting and particularly for mentioning the vocals...I know Janice and floyd appreciate it!! Bud

Good work guys, solid standing arrangement, cool lyrics and a beautiful vocal of Janice. We especially liked the choruses, Floyd does a great job here with a subtle mixed harmony, which has some very interesting notes in it.
Bud, these lyric videos seem to come more and more easy to you, nice one!
Rob & Anne-Marie Thanks for the kind comments and we appreciate you mentioning the video...especially from you two masters of the video! J&B

The songs you turn out are always so top notch. This is very professional in every aspect. The BGV's are outstanding and add a lot to the overall feeling of the song. Janice's vocals and your mixing skills are stellar.
And... by the way ... I like this one ... a lot. A whole lot.

Nice job to all.
Good job on the songwriting.
The production was pretty good too. I like the comped solo/fills. Mostly they are tasty and fit nicely.
Excellent. Thanks Herb J&B Awesome collaboration. Loved the lyric and the vocal was awesome as usual. Love to listen to your songs We appreciate that Scott. Hope we can do it again. J&B
