Floyd / Janice,
I like this a lot - excellent big sound. Love the arrangement as well - great vocals too.
Bob Thanks, Bob... we appreciate your support.. Charlie - again, thanks for your input on the craft - very well done (crafted  ) Dan - it is good of you to bring this aspect to light - if anyone gets the slightest nudge from it, it's a good thing...

There's nothing to add...
I liked reading your comment on crafted songwriting and I couldn't agree more.
Making a song sound great on headphones, and on speakers, and on tablet, and on smartphone... That's well crafted to ☺
Enjoyed a lot Fred Thanks, Fred. Nice of you to say... Excellent, excellent, excellent. I love duets and would love to try writing one sometime. I guess I need some more school fees before I can even attempt to match something like this. Thanks, Joanne - I think you are doing just fine, as is... I'm of the "I love this song" persuasion!
You guitar selections are always inspired.
Hats off to the two of you! Lawrence - we appreciate that....

Hi Floyd and Janice, A little humor, a lot of craft, and just the right dose of sentiment!! A real treat in every way. Excellent vocals, perfect use of the boys in the box (that solo guitar really nailed it!). Enjoyed it very much!! Couldn't say it better. It was a pleasure listening (not only once). Guenter Thank you Guenter! Janice Good write. Love the way your voices blend so well together.
I especially liked the melodic rhythm phrasing in the chorus which gave that pretty melody such a really nice flow.
Only tiny nit on the mix is Janice comes in a bit noticeably louder in the first verse but that's not much of a nit. Cool arrangement both musical and vocal.
I thoroughly enjoyed it. My new fav of your duets so far.
Josie Thank you so much Josie. Floyd makes it easy to sing with him. It was a lot of fun. Janice floyd and Janice,
What can be said?!?!
What a vocal combo! Janice and floyd, or floyd and Janice as I don't want to put either first, both are EXCELLENT!
On my speakers Janice is a tad louder that floyd in the mic but as the song progresses that seems to settle down, but it does not detract from a wonderful song.
You lot produce songs that SHOULD be famous.
Thoroughly enjoyed as usual
Alyn
Thanks Alyn! I really do appreciate that. Janice Historically speaking, (A duet. In the grand tradition of Country Duets...
George and Tammy...Conway and Loretta...Kenny and Dolly...) this is an 'almost cliche' song that works wonderfully well staying just short of being 'cliche' but being a fun song and enjoyable listen without the theme distracting. This is a well-crafted song, performance and production. Great job by the trio.
enjoyed my listen.
Charlie Thank you Charlie. I grew up listening to some of the classic duets and it is so much fun to get to do one! Janice Outstanding guys.
Very professional.
Rob. Floyd and Janice,
This is outstanding. Wow! Every aspect of this is top notch. Loved it!
SD Floyd / Janice,
I like this a lot - excellent big sound. Love the arrangement as well - great vocals too.
Bob Thanks y'all!!! Janice

THIS SHOULD BE REQUIRED READING FOR EVERY SONGWRITER ON THIS FORUM! Thanks for sharing your insights in such a thoughtful and concise manner. Tom That's nice of you to say, Tom.... Hi Floyd/Jane; great song, Nothing but quality is obtain when two great voices joint together. Very good mix too.
Thanks for sharing.
Mike B. Mike - Thanks for stopping by. We appreciate it... If I wanted an example of how to write a theme for a television show, it's all right here. Tight writing to quickly lay out the scenario, and then hammer in the hook. Gerald McRaney as Floyd, and Loni Anderson as Janice. Friday nights at 7:00... I'll be watching! Great stuff!  HA! I like Gerald! What ever happened to Loni??? Now you've got "Green Acres" stuck in my head!!!!
