Hi, Floyd and Janice !
Well, I´m awestruck, this was just so good !
Wonderful in everyway !
Cheers
Dani Thanks, Dani... I don't listen to country rock that often, so of course I'm not an expert, but if you had told me, "This is currently #1 on the US Country Charts" (or whatever those charts are called there), I would have said "of course". Excellent arrangement and a mix where all those millions of guitars still have room to shine. Very, very well done. But topped by Janice's vocal performance, not only because of her great voice (even I know she's good by now), but also because of the way she sings, with that slightly ironic tone in her voice. Super   Thanks, BD... Wonderful! A production done with aplomb, expertise and not just a little sense of humour. Love the, as someone has already mentioned, slightly ironic tone in Janice's voice. And, as we all know by now, what a voice. Love it how she goes just underneath the note, at times, to create the perfect sound and the perfect harmonies for this song. The mark of a singing expert, that :-) . The writing is stellar, the arrangement spectacular. What a team. Congratulations, everyone involved! Thanks, James... Floyd, Janice and Bud...ditto to everything that's been said...very clever write and professional sounding production all round...Floyd, you captured the female perspective quite well and Janice you sang it so well...super effort by all!
(BTW Danny's song, 'The Keeper of the Stars' is one of my favorites of all time) Thanks, Dan. It was cool to see Danny pick up the award for Song Of The Year for "The Keeper of the Stars" at the ACMs. I wrote with Danny quite a bit and knew his writing style well - so when I hear the song I'm always thinking "oh...that's a Danny line..." (mostly the verses)

floyd & Janice
Excellent work all round. Great mix, write, production and performance.
How all the guitar parts work together is very impressive.
The vocal is genre perfect and I loved the outro.
Great work.
Peter Thanks, Peter.... Hi Janice and Floyd
Very cool catchy song
Taking Janice as the singer was a very good idea
Really fun to listen to
Even with guitar solo ;-)))
More of it, Floyd
Really good work
Many greetings
Andi ;-) Thanks, Andi.... Super clear sound,positive rollin all the way
Jona Thanks, Jona... I agree with everything that has been said!
All I can add is that I am always amazed at your professionalism on each and every song. That goes for all three of you. Thanks, Mario....

A lovely rocker if you can say it like that!
I read a post from bass Thumber and i can't agree more with what he wrote: If I had to pick a song, it would be this one (or something like that).
I was expecting to hear your vocals to, Floyd. Say, somewhere in the chorusses or just in between.
But I'm not complaining, because Janices' voice is so nice to listen to. And this song fits her as that 'famous' glove.
Enjoyed it!
Hans Thanks Hans! Janice Ahhh! Good old country rocker.
Great mix and vocal.
Vic Thank you! Janice That is a million dollar chorus. Sounds like hit material to me.
Janice's vocal is top-notch professional.
Another one of my top Floyd songs. I appreciate that! Janice Floyd and Janice,
First I had to look up what was meant by "to pitch to the crop of sassy-girl-singers".
Although I know what "sassy singers" are now, Google translate didn't make any sense as far as the Dutch translation was concerned.
So I just paid attention to the song itself.
Great rocksong!!!!
Music that makes you moving and fabulous vocals, especially in the chorus!.
Wonderful job.
Anne-Marie Thank you! Janice aka Sassy Girl

Yeah, this sure is a sassy little number! Sass and swagger. That is a double double shot of trouble and I like it. So does my best friend Tater. He said good job. Thank you David. Trying to get that double shot was fun! Janice

Wow, where have I been? I love it. I could hear Mary Chapin Carpenter singing this one all the way to the top of the country charts. Well done.

A sassy little tune by a sassy 'lil' vocalist. Great groove to the song and it really sets well with with Janice on vocals.
Enjoyed this one.
Charlie Thanks, Charlie... Well, this didn't get its chance on the charts, but it's Number One with a bullet on Tunemonger's ReTreaded Tracks to Watch! Janice was ace on the vocal and the production is the usual primo job. Great work, enjoyed it a lot! Appreciated, Bob... A lovely rocker if you can say it like that!

Hans Thanks, Hans. I tried adding a harmony, but it sounded awful, so I asked Janice to provide that, too (and she did a great job of that, too). Ahhh! Good old country rocker.
Great mix and vocal.
Vic Thanks, Vic...

What they said! Excellent vocal, great backing, clean mix. The tracks sound like they were custom recorded for the song. I'm sure you could fit in at least one more guitar track!  One weird thing I noticed after listening - I couldn't remember the title of the song! I guess that fit in so naturally with the lyric that it didn't stick out when I was listening to it. I wonder if that had anything to do with people passing on the song, because it's got sass and attitude and good vibes for miles! Thanks! I tried to get that sass and attitude thing down. Jao

Floyd,
Yes, I can definitely hear sassy singers you might have pitched to doing this one—right up their alley. But Janice does it just as well as any of them, IMHO. Terrific mix, great write. Great effort all around!
Best wishes for a Happy Holiday,
Deej

Rock me baby. Nothing like a good old 1-4-5 rock and roll song.
Nicely done
Absolutely. Thanks Herb! Janice Hi floyd jane,

David - It is always satisfying when someone says "The tracks sound like they were custom recorded for the song." Thanks for that! Interesting comment about the title. Guess we just needed it to be a huge hit so that when you hear that phrase, you think of the song Rock me baby. Nothing like a good old 1-4-5 rock and roll song.

Boy did you ever pick the right person to sing this! This is right down Janice's alley! I think this my favorite vocal performance of hers!
This track rocks and can't believe nobody picked this up....still could happen!
The mix can't be improved in any way IMO!
Thanks, T
