Hi Kenny.
A great song with a fabulous feel-good factor.
Yeah, certainly sounds like more than an hour's work to me - boy you must work fast!
Janice could sing entries out of the phone book and I'd like it, but even allowing for that, this one shines through. A wonderful performance which she does so effortlessly.
Super backing, loved the slide and an excellent mix to finish it off.
Good work.
ROG. Thank you ROG! The first time I heard the song I realized that the lyric just sings. It was a fun project and I'm so glad you liked it. Janice

"Someday you’ll look out your window
And maybe feel like you want something more
Until then you know I’ll be waiting"
This song is so cute! I absolutely love the lyrics, especially this part! Sometimes the person you want to be with just isn't ready for that sort of a commitment. You know it's true love when the other person is willing to wait until they are ready.
Keep up the great work! Thanks Ember, you summed it up perfectly, I don't know how cute it is but I'll take it appreciate your kind words

Kenny & Janice,
Super.
The rhythm/cadence of the chorus is exceptional - catchy in the best way! Nice write.
The band does a good job of being "just right". The slide is a good choice...
Sounds to me like Janice is "gettin' her Bonnie Raitt on". Just one more tool in an incredible kit.
Excellent job, y'all.
floyd Thanks floyd, I love that chorus and Janice delivers it so well, I didn't think about Bonnie Raitt but now that you say that, yeah, I hear it Appreciate your kind words always

how did I miss this til now?
This song has the feel of a classic to me... like something you'd hear on an oldies station for 50 years in a row because it has such resonance with a generation!
Good call getting the Merritts involved! They should change their last name to Midas because everything they touch turns to gold!
But it helps to start with a good song in the first place, and that's surely the case here!

Well that was a fun listen! You know those songs where the first time you hear them, you feel like you know it really fast...there ya go. Not like it's been done before, like it just feels right. Bright little tune and that I really liked. It shows how not over-thinking things can be a great asset at times! Now, about the singer...I'll just say a perfect choice. I will "click on" every song I see her name attached to  Which is getting to be a fair amount of clicks these days! There is an obvious reason for that. Really well done! Thank you HearToLearn, appreciate the very kind words, I think we're all in love with Janice's voice and I don't think anyone's ever accused me of over-thinking anything .

This has a really cool almost gospel style feel too it, with country mixed in.
I really dig the vocals by Janice and the all around production.
Great piece of work.
Thanks David, Comes from that New Orleans style, it's got some gospel feel in there Appreciate your kind words

Janice, Bud, and Kenny, you've delivered a real winner here. This song has got absolutely everything.
The rhythm section is keeping everything held together perfectly, lot's of drive, and all embraced in a superb set of lyrics delivered with Janice's usual perfection.

Hello, Kenny, Janice & Bud
Very nice collaboration!
Very happy tune.
Wonderful Vocal.
As Dave said, Janice's vocal performance also reminds me a little of Linda Ronstadt, very pure with great tone as usual.
Electric Vintage Piano is very effective.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Hey You Two...
What a great song and terrific production. Not sure what you "frpg-haired" but this sounds super.
Great song, Kenny. Love the lyric, melody and backing tracks, particularly the slide guitar. And Janice's vocals are always top shelf. This is another great job by her. Terrific in all ways. Standing "O" for all involved!
Alan & Di Alan and Di, thanks so much for the listen and kind words
