Thank you John.
I am pleasantly surprised and happy that you took the trouble to listen and comment because I didn't think that this would be your "cup of tea" type of music.
Thanks John.

Hi Gary,
I think this is the first dance tune I have heard on these forums. Excellent work on this. Your mixing skills are second to none! Great use of those RTs.
I liked this a lot.

Hi Gary,
Yeah, I'll give it an A+
A great beat, cleverly arranged and put together, with an excellent mix as well.
It gave my sub-woofer a good work-out!
Once the chorus kicked in it reminded me of Bronski Beat from the 80s, but anyone outside of
the UK might not be familiar with their stuff.
This genre is a lot harder to get to work than some people imagine, but I think you've
done an excellent job. Looking forward to hearing your next offering.
Cheers,
ROG.

This song really made me smile  Lots of imagination used, very clever use of realtracks creating a full sound and catchy rhythm. Great singing, fits the disco mood. I can hear some British influence from the 80's, The Prodigy and many crossover artists. I would gladly hear you continue on this path  Janne

Lots of obvious creativity went into this production. Great vocals deliver a most cool lyric. Yep, mr jane is the man. Man, that number of tracks is WAY above our pay grade And your mix took all those tracks and set up a very impressive sound stage on our monitors. We'll play it some more on the "big system" and watch the sub dance across the floor. Excellent! J&B

Wow, this has to be one of the best of the year! Captured the genre perfectly and related it lyrically to the showcase. I especially liked the vox. Great work!

As others mentioned, we don't get much of this style here, and you knocked it out of the park. Clever write, musical, and perhaps most importantly, the chorus sticks in my ear after the song's done - something that doesn't happen that often for me. Thanks for posting, this was a blast to listen to.

Hello Gary,
I don't know if I can top the other compliments you got on this great House song! What a good idea to write about writing lyrics.
I thought in a House song there is no singing, but if there is, it was soaked in reverb. You showed me on both topics I was wrong.
Very good work you produced while driving your car!
Hans

This did more to wake me up early this morning than a strong cup of coffee! Rating = 9 out of 10. Forceful, well-tailored, great lyric, etc., etc. Yeah, loved it.
