As always, solid work. But... (and I feel a bit guilty saying this) it felt a bit like the fiddle player treated the song like an extended solo, and played over that fabulous singing. Just an opinion.  Fun listen!

Unlike the title, I'd say this is "Fun Central"!! Really well put together. Clean, tight, and creative writing and production. Vocals are great (Janice and FJ nailed it). From the credits, it looks like it was painstaking (lots of instruments, and multiple generations) but the result was worth it-not a note out of place. Great job!! Take care. Greg +1, Greg says it best. Terrific job on the remix and the video. Tom Thanks Tom. Glad the redo worked for you.
Hello Janice and Bud,
The good old country !
Who has played the guitar solo ? is it a Real track ?
It reminds me of a very good movie about country, Nashville Blues, with River Phoenix
bravo for the video
Thanks! The guitars are all RealTracks.

Thank you! Janice Everything that I wanted to say already has been said.
Like I have said a number of times you guys should be on the radio! What you, Floyd and a number of others do is definitely much better than what is on the radio today ---period. Thank you so much. That is very kind! Janice Thanks again, guys, for letting me be a small part of this. I like it more every time I hear it. Some very cool lines in the writing. The new mix is great. Janice "She Could Sing The Phonebook" Merritt doing her usual. Bud showing his new-found talent for lyric videos. Exceptional. Really. fj Aw shucks! Thank you floyd. Janice

Just an opinion. Fun listen! There's always one of those guys in the band! In our bluegrass band it was the banjo player. I'm gonna have to talk to that fiddle man...or maybe to the guy who mixed this Thanks!! J&B J&B&F
This is outstanding. I really enjoyed it!

Hi Janice and Bud, I've been lurking in the background and popping in periodically to listen. Hope you don't mind Mostly, I've watched the Youtube clip. The one time that I listened to the song on Soundcloud, I came away thinking that the audio sounded slightly higher fidelity. Maybe that's just my ears and how they focused more when the visual was taken out of the equation! I really like this song. It's catchy. Every time I've listened, I've found my feet tapping and my head nodding to and fro. You two really know how to create the BEST music listening experiences. Then, when you grab hold of floyd's voice for harmony... well.... it doesn't get any better. Loved it! Noel

What a great toe-tappin' number
You never fail to disappoint, top job, all around
Trev Yes indeed. Floyd's tenor works perfectly on this. Another fine vocal from Janice, and now we know what Bud does because we read it right there in the credits:) These collaborations are terrific. Y'all are just Pro's and every song you produce is radio ready. Take a bow.
