Janne, A clever write. Some lines made me laugh out loud. A super catchy melody - especially on the chorus - had the flavor of songs we used to listen to on AM Hits radio. Nice. The musical combinations work well. Enjoyed it. fj Thanks Floyd for your kind review, I can almost hear you laughing  it's the singalong chorus that made me come back for this one after so many years, felt like it truly needed real vocals. Janne

Great write, recorded and sang well even if written 15 years ago, it's very catchy has humor and nostalgia I like the ending tag very enjoyable, Kenny Thanks Kenny for enjoying and giving positive feedback  I'm happy you found humor and nostalgia, it's really rewarding to hear that my little song evokes different emotions. Janne

You have a very creative approach to this production. There is a modicum of delightful quirkiness that makes this song so endearing. Clever lyrics!

Hi Janne, Nicely layered vocals Janne. It turns out that your musical creativity was already present at a very young age  Rob and Anne-Marie

Well after that first verse you know it's going to be fun! "mama it's not alright" Hahahahaha! And what a great choice of seemingly disparate RTs...but they worked together excellently. And nice harmonies also. Fun!!! J&B
Thanks Janice and Bud for your positive comment  I remember that this 'mama' part was the last part I wrote for the song, I was looking for an Elvis song to rhyme with tonight and I found 'it's alright mama', so I just turned it around, thanks for the laugh  Janne

Awesome backtrack Janne. Love the way you double tracked the vocal. Well done. Glad you resurrected it Thanks Scott for your kind words  It was fun to make the vocal track, doubled in the chorus, plus one track singing bass line and then the second voice. It would be nice to find more ideas for layering vocals and also time to work on those ideas... Janne

Janne,
Really fun song! It's a kind of unusual song from you. The mating vocals and the piano are particularly fun. The ending is also fun. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
