so every single day you'll find a fresh rose waiting or love notes on the seat of your car every single day... i'll try to win your heart
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

Floyd & Janice, Lots of skill in that one - beautiful phrasing and harmonizing - you make it sound so easy. 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.

Hi Janice & Floyd.
Great song, Floyd, with everything working together, just as it should. Perfect.
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...
ROG.

Floyd & Janice, Your voices sound so good together (I had to read the intro again to see that you weren`t in the same room together). 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.

Yep.... good duet. Nice work and a good job on the write.

Thanks, Dave... we appreciate that... Floyd, You both sound great!! That chorus should appeal to everyone! I really like the phrasing of the lines in the chorus. A positive feel good song. Thanks Torrey. Torrey - glad you enjoyed this... when you are in pitching situations (back when that existed), "positive, upbeat love songs" is pretty much all they are/were looking for...

Hi Floyd and Janice, A song with a commercial potential  This shows in the song structure, the bridge, and especially the choruses, which sound like typical commercial pop country. And by "commercial" we mean GOOD!

Floyd and Janice,
What a great uplifting duet. Your voices blend so perfectly together. 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, Jez
