This is a great track Floyd.
Lyrically, musically, vocally and production-wise it's top-notch. The harmony with Janice is great too.
Love that baritone guitar RealTrack.
Cheers,
Mike Thank you Mike! Janice

Yes, what Charlie said. Exactly. You have a really fine style that is always recognizable as your own. Expectations are always met and the ear is always pleased, the heart engaged.  Thanks, David!!! FJ + Janice
Powerful slower tempo song. Excellent, deep vocals and smooth harmonies. Ace work on the drums (I assume these are the loops?) and overall production is a very PRO level. Solid collaboration. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Much appreciated, Misha....

Floyd / Janice,
Great, great song... A beautifully constructed and produced track.
You two bring it home every time.
Loved it!
Bob Really nice work. Excellent job on the writing, singing, recording, and mix.
What's not to like about one of your songs? You generally check all the right boxes and this one is no exception to that rule.
Quite an enjoyable listen. What a great use of a great hook! Fantastic vocals to match! Thanks y’all for the vocal comments! Janice

Hi Floyd,
I enjoyed your heartbraking song a lot! And I read all the posts on it and can only admit what was written.
You are at your very, very best with these heartbraking themes. Like it's your own personal experience.
You are -to me- a master on these kind of lyrics.
Nothing I just wrote is new to you. I wrote most of it before (except that 'master' thing)...
I almost forgot to mention how I liked the chorusses and harmonies with Janice. They sound so powerfull. A golden choice!
I conclude, quoting a comment from Dave: Top notch!
Hans

Floyd,
the delivery of
"i still miss"
says it all for me.
You know when & how.
Excellent mic technique doesn't go astray either.
Janice's harmonies with you have that sibling thing.
Thanks, ray.... This is a great track Floyd.
Lyrically, musically, vocally and production-wise it's top-notch. The harmony with Janice is great too.
Love that baritone guitar RealTrack.
Cheers,
Mike Thanks, Mike....

Beautiful song Floyd! Great title! Perfect backing on every instrument! Really liked the piano sound! Janice really knows how to compliment your lead vocal...sitting perfectly in there without overpowering you! Another FJ classic!
Thanks, Torrey

STANDING OVATION, and I'm only at the first chorus, so far (as I type). WOW.
Janice is the icing on the cake.
BRAVI, BRAVI, BRAVI. You ought to frame this one. One of your very best, without question. Glad I stopped by to listen.

om om - thanks.... Thanks, Floyd and Janice. "Beautiful heartbreak" is no longer an oxymoron, but an apt description of the magic you guys bring out with this song. Floyd you check all of the boxes in writing, producing and presenting such fine quality. I'm really looking forward to an 8-hour driving trip alone tomorrow. You'll both be with me to shorten the distance and make the inevitable road delays bearable. Stopped in traffic, I'll roll down the window and won't be surprise if many will leave their cars and dance to the music. - hope you had a good trip!!!

Floyd....Wow! what a great piece of music...I think this is my favorite song of yours I've heard and that's saying a lot...the lyrics are exquisite and the delivery and vocals are so good! your use of BiaB is flawless...this is so pro sounding and I hope it finds it's way to some producer somewhere...this is the quality of song and type of production that most of us aim for but haven't hit yet...bullseye! Wow, I felt that one!
Beautiful composition and very well sung (love the harmonies!).
Rob floyd
Simply beautiful. A great production and as usual you and Janice harmonize perfectly and sound great together.
The mix is superb as the backing.
Wonderful song.
Peter Lovely song Floyd. Loved the backing track. Beautiful vocal and lyric. Janice's harmonies were excellent as well. +1 what Rob said. Really felt the emotion of the song.. Thanks y’all for mentioning my small part! Janice

A fine example of lyric writing: saying what needs to be said with no extraneous verbiage. Beautifully produced and performed. Nice one!
