Bud and Janice,
Cute lyrics, great groove to the backing and, yes, that is a "sultry" vocal performance. I can hear why this would get the attention on songtradr ( your info is very informative and useful to many here).
Not blowing your horn at all- but you could with just about all your songs!
Best of luck in that final round.
Robert
We appreciate that Robert. This was the rare one that came together quickly. Thanks for checking it out. J&B

I was not with the company two years ago, so this is my first time hearing the song! I'm glad I got to hear it at all, and am really grateful that you reposted it. It's such a smooth song, and when I think about the criteria you mentioned above for your entry—while your song was made before they put out the call—that criteria is all I can think about now! Sensual; smooth; jazzy, just like you mentioned. It's totally a perfect fit and I can see why you got short-listed.  That on its own is a great feat! Congrats. Can't wait to hear the next one, old or new! Thanks Ember. We’re glad you felt that way about the song fitting the request. I guess Songtradr folks made it through Janice’s southern accent! We always appreciate your comments. J&B

Congrats for going for it and hope it gets on!!! Terrific sound. Excellent job by all! BTW, I really like that rope heart that opens the video - small thing but it's really cool. Thanks Josie and we’re glad you liked the rope image. We also felt it worked well. We try to put a lot of thought into the images to hit a sweet spot where they support the lyric without distracting from it. J&B Janice, Bud & Tom
Song has been described so far as:
Killer, exceptional, masterful, pro, incredible, sultry, sensual, smooth & terrific.
That about sums it up for me!
Peter Thanks Peter! Janice, Bud & Tom,
Kudos! This is simply wonderful - pro all the way! Janet is always the best friend a song can have. Great picking by Tom, Janice sounds as classy as always and the mix has the "Bud" touch - and that's a good thing!
Good luck with the pitch and congrats on making to the final review. Several years ago I got a cut on a Gypsy Jazz documentary in the UK. It's quite a feather in your hat when that happens - and the money spends pretty good, too!
Best to you - sounds like a winner to me.
Alan Thanks Alan. Given that we have no idea how many finalist songs were referred to the music director the chances may be slim. But as long as we have the songs why not give it a go; however we have zero interest in creating songs for the express purpose of pitching. That sounds like work! Cool that you got that placement.

Love the overall sound, mix, and of course those gorgeous vocals.
Sounds like an old classic standard.
Super guitar playing, lyrics, mix and arrangement.
Great job y'all.

J&b, Tom, everything about this production is wonderful! Above all, Janice's vocal, IMHO, is this the best I've heard so far from you all! And that is saying something! The production doesn't get any better than this! Your mix couldn't be any better and Toms playing, well it just sounds great! Congrats on getting some buzz on this 'cause you deserve it! Take care, Torrey Thanks Torrey! We appreciate your comments as does Tom who is, unfortunately, still in the recovery mode from Irma. We admire your productions and it is great to hear that you like this one. J&B

A very orthodox blues!
Janice's vocal has a tremendous expression.

The usual high standard has definitely been reproduced again.
This is really neat, the song has class, with no side effects.
Thanks! Glad you experienced no side effects...  J&B

Hi Bud, Janice and Tom
Very very nice! Janice's vocal is wonderful and smooth as usual. Great production too.
Well done on the songtradr selection. I have been submitting to them for a couple of months now and have 25 songs licensed so far but these are for the "deals" rather than the "music wanted". I have two currently in "final selection" for "music wanted".
I think the "music wanted" ones are quite lucrative because they are specific requests for a specific song whereas the "deals" are generally for libraries or compilations. There is currently a request for a public domain spiritual that I think Janice would just knock out of the park if you have time to record before the 5th October (or if you have something already?).
Best of luck!

Best of luck! Thanks Joannne. We have seven in the finals for music wanted including this one. And two of them are in the PD spiritual request you mentioned. We had a couple of BiaB productions we’d done 4-5 years ago that seemed to fit that request. We haven’t submitted any to the Deals. I can see submitting when a request resembles something in our catalog but putting a new production together to meet a request seems a wee bit like work! Thanks again for listening and making such a nice comment. J&B
