Peter, Leon, Janice & Bud,
This is an excellent refresh of a great song. Love the RTs and the lead guitar.
Janice as always sounds tremendous. The new backing vocals are perfect.
Bud is a wizard - this version sets a high bar for mastering. Just an incredible sound.
Loved it all!
Bob

When Peter, Leon, Janice & Bud get together you know you are in for some real ear candy and this was no exception!
As usual all parts fit perfectly together: Janice's vocal was perfect, Peter's guitar was perfect, Bud's mix was perfect, and Leon's lyrics were great!
Loved it.
PS - I was smiling all through this one. A friend was over with girlfriend #1 and called her girlfriend #2's name. All hell broke lose! Thus I can, as an observer to the crime, really get this one!

"Should’ve known that you were twisted" Excellent jibe. My ONLY nit is the non English/Australian pronunciation of "a" though o many folk in Australia use the Americanism that I'm a small cricket in the distant night. The "package", if I may be so crude, is fabulous.

Thank you, Peter! I wasn't here 7 years ago, and this is way too good to miss. Love the long title. This is why players call their partners Babe or something similar. Such a fine guitar solo --no surprise. Janice --well, who knew in the 60s I would ever end up saying the best Janice voice has much more merit than what was currently available. YES! You picked the master for the mastering. An excellent choice for an excellent song -- or any song really.

WOW. This is good! The Mix is EXCELLENT. The sound of the Bass and Drums is exceptional. Solid backing.
OMG, those vocals! And here's the kicker...those HARMONIES might be even better than the main! GOOSEBUMPS.
Peter's guitar work - gems all over the place.
A Good Write. The chorus is especially nice. One of your best.
Great Listening.

The write is solid, vocals excellent, clear mix, and the guitar solo is short (sorry, couldn't resist  ). Excellent!
