Joanne,

Stellar vocals as usual.
I entirely agree with rayc.
I don't hear anything synthetic in the harmonies, either.
A really nice arrangement to support the song based around a lovely melody and chord progression.
Top stuff.
I'm always impressed with your constant challenges to the competitions.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Joanne,

Beautiful vocal . . . lovely harmonies . . . nah, check that, KILLER harmonies. Nice hook going into that chorus; definitely an ear worm vibe going on there. This is solid from start to finish. Deserves a ton of listens, and a ton more after that. Very pretty.

Humble regards,

Deej

Good Morning (It's still early morning here in Alabama).

Ray said most of what I was gonna say ... probably said it better than I would have. I get a hint of Nancy Griffith in your voice. And that's a good thing in my opinion. You always post some of the nicest music on this forum. This was a real pleasure to listen to. Wishing you & yours the very best ...

Hi Joanne,

This is a very nice example of how Folkmusic must be made.
Your voice(s) gave it a sentimental touch that made me smile.
And the mandolin gave some sort of contrast to the soft tones of the song/voices.
I like how that worked out.

But you have to explain what you have to do to win that 50/90 contest.
I don't get it and Google wouldn't help me with it.

Hi! My second time to chime in on this great song ...

I have to fully agree with Beatmaster. This is so darn beautiful. Your voice is lush but so explicitly clear. That was quite a musical treat! Totally loved it! Wishing everything good ...

Lovely song with engaging vocals and well done harmonies. The vocals are mixed "strong" without drowning the instruments. Enjoyed the listen.

Yep... a great folk song for sure. Loved the work you put into this. Great selection of tracks too.
