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...

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..

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!

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! smile smile

Happy Anniversary!

J&B



Y'all are too kind... as always... Thanks!

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...

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!...

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!
