J&B and Tom,
My, oh, my . . isn’t that just killer. I like Janice’s voice here in a bit of her upper range—it just slays . . . man, terrific tune. The lyrics sing and rolls so smoothly; the internal and near rhymes sit perfectly. And the production . . . perfect. Love, love, love it!
Hope you are all doing well,
Deej Thank you Deej! That was a very nice thing to say about my vocal. And you are right - Tom is the rhyme man. It's a lot of fun working with him. Janice

OUTSTANDING. Absolutely entertaining. What a great vocal and brilliant hook line with the Bad A$$ Lady. Terrific all around, Janice. Man, Tommy Adams, what a wonderfully tasteful guitar! Wow, you 3 are a FUN team. Bud, I think you underestimate your contribution, man. You are VERY inspirational in so many ways, and I feel it wouldn't happen without you. Love it! Marty, thanks for giving it a spin and commenting, Tom

All of you done Brilliant , Well done !!.

WOW, this is one hell of a great song! I loved everything about this. Smoking hot Tele, great vocal, super mix, and outstanding lyrics like "I’m a better version of a Redneck Mother Never gonna trade my truck for a luxury car Bad A$$ Ladies don’t drive Mercedes".
This is much better then anything on the radio today!

Are you sure that's method acting? She wasn't playing to type? Fantastic song-writing. Fantastic singing, Fantastic band. Love that little break before the solo (it's pretty on the wave-form too). And the solo. JUST enough. Outstanding. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment, Tom
