Nice work... really good dynamics between the verses and chorus. The only thing missing is a soaring guitar solo.....
Good work on the collab

A beautiful soar to the melody on the chorus made the best of by the fine vocal - my favourite of your collaborations so far!
I could also hear a guitar solo in there... maybe David Lindley style slide.

David and Floyd,

"this is radio ready!"
Definitely your best collab so far.

ALERT, ALERT!! Apparently Bruce Springsteen is auditioning new songs on our forum under the pseudonyms Floyd Jane and David Snyder!! Seriously guys, this is fantastic!!! Chorus is magical. And Floyd, who always delivers a strong vocal knocked this one out of the park. Love the song, love the arrangement, love the vocal, and LOVE THE CHORUS!! A real treat to listen to. AWESOME!!! Take care. Greg

Charlie We thank you, Charlie.. Nice work... really good dynamics between the verses and chorus. The only thing missing is a soaring guitar solo.....
Good work on the collab Adding a solo would make this too long... there is "soaring" in the bridge...more (from a solo) would get to be too much...

HI Guys.
Another classic track and professional in every respect.
I was going to go with Herb about the solo, but maybe you're right? If it was up to me, I'd have found room for some unobtrusive lead guitar ornamentation in the spaces during the last chorus - just trying it out now as the track is playing. Maybe it's not so easy to do with RTs.
Anyway, loved it as it is.
Cheers, ROG.

f&D, This is the sound of modern country. That steel is a great real track! The drums are absolutely killer! Top notch lyrics and arrangement as well as vocals. A brilliant collab and it's good to see you are both drinking the same kool-aid. Loved everything about this. Tom

This one deserves a lot of replays, there's like a great sweet spot when then song reaches the title line. The melody and the chords just open up and soar. I agree with all that's being said here, except no solo needed. This is a learning opportunity for me, great
skills at work here.

Nice collaboration! Modern country at it's best in my opinion.
P.S. Floyd, I noticed in the song description that you are using loops from Drums on Demand. If you don't mind my asking, are you using BIAB to add these loops to the song, or do you use your DAW and add them after the fact?
(I am so out of the loop when it comes to this stuff, pardon the pun :P)

Great write, Floyd and David.
I love the muted electric guitar--it really locks in the groove.

Wow! This is so well done. I always like your work, Floyd, but I think this is probably the best I have heard from you. The production is superb, and this one sounds like it was just made for your voice. You and David are really on a roll!
Great work from both of you!

floyd and David, I like the lyrics, whoever wrote them, we kiss... it's lightning brilliant and your vocals, floyd, were excellent! I really enjoyed that and so gave the neighbours a treat yesterday! Volume at 11 and doors wide open, No complaints so far  Amazingly, as I live in the middle of a town, a couple of Herons dropped in for a rest during the 2nd play of the song so even the local wildlife appreciates your music The story in the lyrics will be re-enacted in town this week, not by me ...too old  , as it is Fair Week and, as usual, it is raining and a bit windy, no where near a hurricane tho' thankfully. thoroughly enjoyed thanks for sharing Alyn
