Another great write, supported by a fine vocal. That tremolo guitar is a standout and is so present it sounds like it’s right here in the room. You certainly seem to have a large seed bank of song ideas! Your manipulation of the real tracks is nothing short of remarkable. The attention to detail not only in the write but also in the arrangement and production is a hallmark in all your songs. I expect we are in for a lot more of these musical gems in 2019. Outstanding job, Tom I appreciate all of that, Tom - coming from someone how also pays a lot of attention to detail in their writes, arrangements and productions... Thanks!!

I could open wide while the heavens cried! Dang! Why ain't you famous? Your lyrics always blow me away! As a former professional drunk I approve this song!  - very nice to see you drop in for a listen, Tommy...!! What a tune! Love the sincerity in both your vocals and instruments here. Really hits the soul. Nicely catchy on the hook to - it manages to be an earworm while still tugging at the heart string. I personally loved it! Nothing I'd change here - thanks for sharing Thanks for dropping by, Deryk!! floyd,
Beautiful modern country ballad!
I completely agree with Rob.
What a great title and hook. You always have this talent for putting a new and original slant onto a heartbreak story.
And I also completely agree with HearToLearn.
The rhymes you build is wonderful.
And super vocal as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Hey floyd, According to Soundcloud, I first listened to this song 2 months ago. After I listened, I set the song aside to come back and write a couple of thoughts... Where did all that time go? As late as late can be, here are those thoughts What first grabbed my attention here is how you've use the rhyme scheme for the limerick, i.e. AABBA, to present the verses. A long time ago, I read in a songwriting book that this rhyme scheme is a good one if humour is required. At the time I read that, I didn't agree because, for me at least, the humour in limericks is about the words and the rhyme scheme is just how that word content is delivered. For example... - A writer of songs named floyd
Had wonderful skills he employed
And he delivered his words
As if they were chauffeured
And all who heard them, enjoyed
While the above maybe creates a small smile, I'm pretty certain that that's not due to the rhyme scheme. (If my students at school heard or read this, they would definitely groan!) What you've shown us all in "Raining Whisky" is that the AABBA rhyme scheme presents serious lyrics with pizzazz. It also flows along well. All the best, Noel

Well,
It looks like I missed this one when you posted it. It's a sad day to miss a new Floyd Jane song. Your professionalism shines on this in every aspect. It's a rhyming scheme I used to use a lot, but not too much recently. Maybe I need to rethink that.
Love the higher EQ accent on the drums in the chorus - it's a great drum track! Typing through a smile. I like that!
