My wife and I are celebrating our 40th. Here are a few of the reasons why... LITTLE THINGS you always know where i leave my keys pick up my clothes, say "can't you please" let me read the paper before you're done hand me sunglasses, "don't squint in the sun" letting me know when i cross a line always reminding me to be on time the little things that say you'll always be my girl they make all the difference in the world the little things we sometimes don't recall the little things that make a big man fall you think they don't mean much but let me tell you girl the little things make all the difference in the world it's the vitamin you make me take each day the look i get for stupid things i say that touch that tell me "it'll be all right" that soft, sweet kiss in the middle of the night the way you tease me 'bout that little bit of gray how when you make up your mind there's nothing left to say the little things let me know you'll always be my girl they make all the difference in the world the little things we sometimes don't recall the little things that make a big man fall you think they don't mean much but let me tell you girl the little things make all the difference in the world And here is the BAND: RealTracks in song: ~684:Bass, Electric, PopHalfNotesSync Ev 120 RealTracks in song: ~2201:Guitar, Nylon, Background CountryBrent Ev 120 MIDI SuperTracks in song: 2106:Piano, Rhythm PopUpliftA-B Ev16 120 RealTracks in song: ~522:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 120 RealTracks in song: ~1677:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking CountryBrent Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 698:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm ElecRockDirty Ev 120 (A:muted) RealTracks in song: 633:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopAmericanMuted Ev 120 (A:sync) RealDrums in Song: NashvilleEven16^1-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride RealDrums in Song: BossaRockPerc^1-a:Congas , b:Percussion Busy We've had fun.

floyd,
Congratulations to you and your wife!!!! That's an outstanding milestone.
As I'm typing this, I'm listening to "Little Things". It's definitely a song to be proud of... very easy-on-the-ears and very catchy, too. I don't know that I've heard "Thank you" said so well before.
May everything good come your wife's and your way, Noel

Floyd, I got goosebumps. When a song is this good, there is not much to say. Every line is good. Every note is good. This thing is alive, it has an unstoppable heartbeat, it is country pop genre crossing majestic, unbelievably touching and perfect. It feels like you took everything good and great about your talent and stuffed it into one moment of pure perfection. I hope your wife gave you a hug. I tip my hat, sir. Amazing. Now let me see if I can get to work and write one like it.

Classic. I'll share that your song "Little Things" is quite different of my tune from 1971 of the same name.
The devil is always in the details.
Enjoyed my listen.
Charlie
EDIT: My gracious, I overlooked your actual anniversary and reason for song.... Happy Anniversary

Floyd, Man, WHAT A SONG!!! I'm pretty much incommunicado (vacationing in Costa Rica) but I had to put my two cents in here. This is so incredibly GOOD!! Such a wonderful heartfelt lyric, and music that is so sweet and pleasant to carry it along. I agree with David's comments-this song just knocks you out! On my laptop speakers, I can't appreciate the production as much as I will later but I had to drop the quick note of "Congrats" and SO WELL DONE!!!! Take care. Greg

I would also like to congratulations on your milestone. Your lyrics put a smile on my face. I have had a few moments like that as well with my wife. The vocal, harmonies and backtracks sit so tight together. I think when happens one can really experience the imagery in the song. Well done..

Hi Floyd.
A super song and a wonderful tribute to your wife.
Many congratulations on your 40th from your friends and fans over here in (the original) York.
What can I say about the song, except that it's everything we've come to expect from you in regards to content, performance, production and sheer professionalism.
All the best to you both for the future.
Cheers, ROG.

floyd, In this world of wholesale divorce where over 50 percent of new marriages fail, you are certainly in rarefied air. Aside from the great lyrics, melody, performance and production, the real standout is the event itself. The fact that you and your wife have succeeded in nurturing the relationship is evidence that you have found what is really important in life. Happy 40th to you both and I wish you many more. By the way I really liked the song, Tom

The "little things" are expressed here in a BIG manner. A lovely tribute to a lovely lady. It would be easy to appreciate all the goodness of this production irrespective of the relationship one might be in but when you have one like the two of us it just makes this song all the more special. Janice says the melody and the band alone will make one happy. Then with the terrific vocal and production. Wow! As i type Janice keeps naming things about it that make her happy. OK, girl, I get it! Happy Anniversary! J&B

Dear "floydjane"... Man, I'm jealous of you ! I only made it through seven years in my marriage. When you gonna write the book that explains the secrets of the longevity of your relationship with your wife? The addition of the congas RealTracks was inspired! The lyrics -- and the way you croon them -- had the effect of causing me to listen very closely and introspectively to them. They kept my ears (and my heart) focused on the details of the "little things" you described so endearingly in your song. The sound of your production was clear and ringing, as though it had been recorded in the open air of an outdoor music festival. I found myself imagining a wave of applause beginning as the song ended and you stood up to take your bow, and then pointed out your obviously much-loved wife in the audience so everyone would know who you were singing about. "floydlane", congratulations on honoring the truly sacred vow that the marriage rite demands from all who betroth themselves to a life partner: "'Til death do us part." Most sincerely, LOREN

Floyd,
Congrats! Wishing you and your wife a bunch more.
Well, I'm out of superlatives. I think I've already bankrupted the English language of it's superlatives. This is about as close to perfect as a production can be in all respects. I should know better, but I'm always amazed every time I click onto one of your songs. No matter how good I expect it to be, it's better.
Best to you and your beautiful wife.
Alan

Floyd,
first of all, congratulations on 40 years of marriage! That's quite an accomplishment! And a pretty good reason to write a song, if I may say so!
I thought your lyrics zeroed in perfectly on what you called the "little things" that perhaps don't get identified in marriages of shorter duration, but which are the insider information that help to keep good marriages rocking.
That wasn't a song that could be written by anybody... but you nailed it!

Hi, Floyd !:))
This is very nostalgic as I did pass 42 years with my wife that died 7 years ago !
What a great tribute to a long lasting marriage, may it last for long still !
Cheers Dani Thanks, Dani... Hi Floyd.
A super song and a wonderful tribute to your wife.
Many congratulations on your 40th from your friends and fans over here in (the original) York.
What can I say about the song, except that it's everything we've come to expect from you in regards to content, performance, production and sheer professionalism.
All the best to you both for the future.
Cheers, ROG. Appreciate that, ROG... Beautiful love song. Nice melody and great lyrics. I agree with all you say in lyrics. the same situations for people with a long relationship.
For me and my wife are 29 years Congratulations for your 40 years.
Sergio
Thanks, Sergio...

floyd,
Congratulations to you and your wife!!!! That's an outstanding milestone.
As I'm typing this, I'm listening to "Little Things". It's definitely a song to be proud of... very easy-on-the-ears and very catchy, too. I don't know that I've heard "Thank you" said so well before.
May everything good come your wife's and your way, Noel Well Floyd, Congratulations from the both of us! And this was supported by a really nice song surely up to your usual high standard ;-) Rob & Anne-Marie Thanks, y'all... appreciate it.. Lovely song, Floyd, and congratulations to you both Thanks, Graham... floyd, In this world of wholesale divorce where over 50 percent of new marriages fail, you are certainly in rarefied air. Aside from the great lyrics, melody, performance and production, the real standout is the event itself. The fact that you and your wife have succeeded in nurturing the relationship is evidence that you have found what is really important in life. Happy 40th to you both and I wish you many more. By the way I really liked the song, Tom Thanks, Tom.... She did holler at me for putting her picture up...

This song really tells the story about what it's like to be in a long, loving, and fully committed relationship. It's all the little things that we do for one another that really show just how much we love one another.
It sounds like you and your wife are doing it right. Nowadays, a lot of people don't understand that relationships take work, maintenance and unconditional love. Sounds like you guys have these three things down pat.
Congratulations on this amazing milestone, and here's to many more years for you two ahead!

fj,
I can only echo what Tom said. Excellent song. and congratulations on your Anniversary.
Regards,
Lefty Thanks, Lefty! I do hope you are doing well... it's the little things, ya know... Congrats Floyd! Not many folks these days can say they've made it 40 years. Great song and testimony of your wife's care for you! Thanks, T Thanks, Torrey.... The "little things" are expressed here in a BIG manner. A lovely tribute to a lovely lady. It would be easy to appreciate all the goodness of this production irrespective of the relationship one might be in but when you have one like the two of us it just makes this song all the more special. Janice says the melody and the band alone will make one happy. Then with the terrific vocal and production. Wow! As i type Janice keeps naming things about it that make her happy. OK, girl, I get it! Happy Anniversary! J&B Y'all are too kind... as always... Thanks!

My oh my i'd love to be a fly on the wall of your studio.Talent is a word used far too often on shows EG X factor lol.my friend you have it in a bundance .what a great song as many of yours are ,thank you so much for sharing . cheers Brad Brad - thanks for such a very nice comment!! We'll have to see what can be done about the fly-on-the-wall thing.... Dear "floydjane"... Man, I'm jealous of you ! I only made it through seven years in my marriage. When you gonna write the book that explains the secrets of the longevity of your relationship with your wife? The addition of the congas RealTracks was inspired! The lyrics -- and the way you croon them -- had the effect of causing me to listen very closely and introspectively to them. They kept my ears (and my heart) focused on the details of the "little things" you described so endearingly in your song. The sound of your production was clear and ringing, as though it had been recorded in the open air of an outdoor music festival. I found myself imagining a wave of applause beginning as the song ended and you stood up to take your bow, and then pointed out your obviously much-loved wife in the audience so everyone would know who you were singing about. "floydlane", congratulations on honoring the truly sacred vow that the marriage rite demands from all who betroth themselves to a life partner: "'Til death do us part." Most sincerely, LOREN Loren - Thanks for a lovely review. Glad to see the congas noticed...

Floyd,
Congrats! Wishing you and your wife a bunch more.
Well, I'm out of superlatives. I think I've already bankrupted the English language of it's superlatives. This is about as close to perfect as a production can be in all respects. I should know better, but I'm always amazed every time I click onto one of your songs. No matter how good I expect it to be, it's better.
Best to you and your beautiful wife.
Alan Thanks, Alan... appreciate that... and best to you both!... hi Floyd Congratulations to you and your wife 40 years that's awesome great write everthing perfect on this peace thanks eric Glad you stopped by for a listen, Eric... Floyd,
Sweet, real and very catchy. Everything done right on the backing, vocals and harmonies. Congrats on your milestone- this is a beautiful gift.
Robert I couldn't have said it better. Always good to see you, Lawrence.... thanks... Hi Floyd.
A super song and a wonderful tribute to your wife.
Many congratulations on your 40th from your friends and fans over here in Chicago.
What can I say about the song, except that it's everything we've come to expect from you in regards to content, performance, production and sheer professionalism.
All the best to you both for the future.
Cheers, ROG. Can't say it better than ROG. ditto from me. Dan! You are almost becoming a regular Always appreciate you stopping in for a listen... Thanks for supporting my music from the first day I stepped foot in PG-Land...

Floyd,
first of all, congratulations on 40 years of marriage! That's quite an accomplishment! And a pretty good reason to write a song, if I may say so!
I thought your lyrics zeroed in perfectly on what you called the "little things" that perhaps don't get identified in marriages of shorter duration, but which are the insider information that help to keep good marriages rocking.
That wasn't a song that could be written by anybody... but you nailed it! Thanks, Pat! Hello, floyd
Congratulations on 40 years of marriage! As Peter said, wonderful melody, lovely lyric, beautifully sung. A very wonderful tribute to your wife. Please continue to make super tunes for us more than ever. I am always looking forward to your new songs. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Shigeki Adachi - I appreciate that... thanks for listening...
