Boy do I loved this song Floyd. You hit this one out of the park. What an awesome vocal. Beautiful lyric and backtrack. Well done Thanks, Scott... appreciate all that... Wow - a very strong write, and perfectly executed. This is one of my favourites I'v heard from you. The vocals are powerful and sincere, and man - that chorus! It is very, very powerful. It almost has an epic feel to it. You should be proud of this one - thanks so much for sharing  Deryk - Thanks for stopping in for a listen...and the fine review... Beautiful song Floyd. We especially like the choruses. And Brent is doing a fine job agai!
Rob and Anne-Marie Thanks, y'all...

Hi, Floyd!:))
Wonderful ! Wow that strong vocals you owe ! You know I like it as everything else too !
Cheers Dani Thanks, Dani... This is one of my favorite medium pop-rock ballad types with the familiar chording. You have really made it as powerful as it is possible. Excellent production, drums sound especially strong. Your vocals backing included sound great and lyrics are simply perfectly simple  This has everything it needs, nothing unnecessary. Janne I Appreciate that... Thanks, Janne...

Beautiful ballad
I love that Pop Modern Groove Acoustic guitar
I'll be checking that out
the vocals, mix, and arrangement show skills
that are stratospheric!
a wonderful gentle touch with this song, just what was needed
to make it special
Kenny Thanks for that, Kenny... Sometimes simple equals BRILLIANT!!! One of those songs that makes you say "Why didn't I write that?". Elegantly simple and heartfelt, and GORGEOUS!! The arrangement and vocals are beautiful and instantly memorable (still singing in my head now). I would love to hear a pop diva type (Celine Dion or similar) just nail this with a rhodes and strings type of arrangement. Singers can show their best stuff on those soaring melodies. Beautiful work here Floyd!!! Take care. Greg Greg - when a writer such as you uses words like "brilliant" and "gorgeous" and, especially "why didin't I think of that"... well that is certainly appreciated... If you run into Celine, have her drop by here...

We've known for six years that you have a helluva set of pipes....but man does this ever showcase them!
We hear a power but not over the top ballad. The harmony is exquisite.
And the lyric...wow. So simple and yet so strong. The epitome of the old adage that perfection is when there is nothing left to take away.
Your band is perfecto and the beat track provides just enough hint of modern.
Yeah, we love it.
J&B
Six years. That's longer than I ever stick with anything (except my wife. of course). I value your friendship as much as your musicianship. Both of ya... There's so much about that song and the performance that's absolutely stellar.... Great choice of tracks, well executed, smooth vocal performance, and economy of words, in other words... it says a lot with a few words.
It had a very laid back easy going groove to it.
One of your best in a while. Thanks, Herb. Appreciate that.

The BIG rhythm section is a huge contrast to the vocal and guitars EXCELLENT. Big ballad, without turning into a hairmetal power ballad, is a hard thing to pull off. You did it. The bass tone is the star of the rhythm section too. A lovely growl/drive edge. ACE
Thanks for having a go at this, Ray...

Hi Floyd,
Ha! That chorus is pure Brian Adams!
I love Brian Adams stuff. What more can I say?

Hello, floyd
Very very catchy! I agree with Robert. One of the simplest and best ballads I've heard you sing. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Shigeki Adachi - Thanks so much! A superb song. Simple as that.
And that goose-bump chorus - wow.
John
Appreciate that, John. Always great to have you drop by...

This is an elegant piece. The choice of electric guitars and their arrangement worked really well for me. I enjoyed this from start to finish. Great song, arrangement and performance.
"I could see a crooner of days gone by singing this; OR Bruno Mars, Ed Sherran, dare I say...Charlie Puth. It's got universal appeal and in my opinion, it's timeless." HTL
Hear To Learn scared me until I read the word 'Puth'... His buildup to a Charlie Fogle comeback was perfect...
Thanks, Charlie. Speaking of a Charlie Fogle comeback - when might we hear another from you????? floyd,
What can I say?
the production is excellent. So much so that I had to open the door and wind up to 12 to let my neighbours enjoy this as well.
Alyn
ps Haha, started their dog barking LOL. Monty's a fan and he is only 6 months old...
Woof! Woof! Woof!!! Glad to see ya back, Alyn! Hoping to hear a bunch of new stuff from you....

I love the intro. The production is exceptional. The write is perfect for the melody. The vocal is superb as are the backing vocals. Nice touch having the instrumentation drop out. This is about as perfect as can be in all regards. Beautifully and expertly done. Tom
