You're a real class act, you two. Such a full yet open sound throughout. Drums, guitar, vocals... all really really top notch.

Fun song. Well written, arranged, mixed and produced.

The vocals are stellar together - A match made in country. They play off each other like you two have worked together every day for years.

Enjoyed my listen.

I LOVE THAT!!! What a great way to end a chorus-lyrically and melodically so full of impact. This is such a positive, feelgood song. I always enjoy this kind of duet and this one does it right. The melody just takes off at the beginning of the chorus and the harmonies are so sweet. And, of course, Janice nails her part. This is simply a GREAT song!! Well done guys!! Take care. Greg


Greg - it is always nice to read your thoughts - you are an incredible song man in every regard... which makes this especially nice... Isn't Janice amazing???

Great mix with a really professional sound, you sound like you're in the same room singing(Janice nicely recorded by Bud), good set of lyrics and strong catchy chorus melody.
Very nice indeed.

Sweet and uplifting. And I love sweet and uplifting.

You both sound super. Love the stops. Love the guitars - the arrangement is great. Really nice work on those drums.
Personally I like a little more bass but that's just me.

Great job.

Janice, what can I say? When you sing in that register it gives me goosebumps.

A fabulous performance, you two - just SO professional throughout.

Must listen again...

Making this very good song a duet raises it to another level- I`m curious if you wrote it with that in mind?
A highly professional production throughout as usual.

And by "commercial" we mean GOOD!

A great write AGAIN. Some great performances AGAIN. The three of you have standards that are so high that you never disappoint. I really liked the tight, locked in harmony. That's how it should be done. I also agree with Josie a little more bass would be nice. This is a fine example of songwriting, vocal performance and mastery of production. Some high skill level on display. Tom

Bud also did a great job on Janice's vocal.

All rounded off with a perfectly recorded RT band. Especially love the solid drum sound.
What's not to love about this.

Excellent work,

Thanks, Jez. I do love singing duets with Mrs. Merritt...
