Hi Janice & Bud,
I am really glad I got to hear this tune. The intro was a first rate pro vocal. Actually I really enjoyed the listen. Bud, you did a very professional job with your part of this.
This song is better than most of the stuff I hear on the radio.
I have been working sixteen hours a day for the last few weeks. This was a nice thing to come home too.
Sorry for all the stuff I have missed but I think next week things will return to normal in my life.
Put it on the internet....I will pay a dollar to download a copy!!
Best of everything to you folks.
Billy

Check out the Biab Facebook page!!! Well, the family and friends loved that!  Bud Love the bluesy path you took on this rendition, completely fit the bill for my liking  Thanks! It's hard to keep Janice off of that bluesy path. Bud Janice / Bud,
This is excellent. Love the arrangement and delivery - so nice all around. Great mix as well.

Janice and Bud,
I have been out of commission for the past few weeks, and almost missed this one. Usually when I have been away from the forum for any length of time, when I return I look for anything you, Floyd, or Tom have posted, as I am never disappointed with anything you guys do. I sure am glad I got to hear this one.
Up to your usual standard of excellence. Love the vocal intro. Love everything about this one.

Now this little tune was a big dose of encouragement with the breezy arrangement and heart sung vocal. Rats - (pun intended LOL!) It's really hard to be one of the last commenters because there's nothing left to say....other than thanks y'all I needed that. Josie

Hi J&B,
Public domain sure is a good source for redoing songs with BIAB.
Like all your recordings this one sounds very professional (good mix).
The acapella intro part works great, the subtle buildup after that and of course Janice's excellent vocal.
Rob

I love what you did with this song. I listened to the original first and man you guys did a super job with your version. Great vocal and instrumentation!
Sonny Thanks Sonny. We tried to get away from the way so many versions had been presented. Hi Janice & Bud,

"This song is better than most of the stuff I hear on the radio." a recurring theme any time Bud and Janice post a song! Coincidence? I'm thinking that the statistical probability that everyone would conspire to lie in exactly the same way is so low that what everyone says must be true!
