Floyd.
As a writer of gloomy, sombre songs I still can appreciate well produced happy ones.
Thumbs up from me.

It does the job, Floyd, of putting feel-good into love. Some songs, like this one, are simple and sing-able while putting a smile on the listener's face. Good co-write to be sure.

I don't know ... it sounds old. Old in the sense of "older than OLD dust". My grandma would probably have listened to that.
But if you put it on a "Songs from the Fifties/Sixties" album, it could find a nice home somewhere between "Bye Bye Love" and "Pretty Woman" and no one would say it was cringy. BD - It never occurred to me that this would sound that "old". It was the kind of thing that would pop up regularly in Country music from the late '70's through the 90's A couple of examples? Elvira - The Oak Ridge Boys - 1981 or Achy Breaky Heart - Billy Ray Cyrus - 1992The second one sounds more modern to me, but Elvira (which I probably would have put in the late 50s/early 60s as well) does sound like your song, so of course you're right. I guess it's a cultural thing. Unless you pick a specific country station, you usually don't hear any country stuff on the radio in my neck of the woods, except for a few old things here and there when someone has died. You learn something new every day

Darn catchy tune. It has the right dose of cliches to make this a big hit.
Production and band sound ace. The BGVs sit just right in the mix for me and sound rich. Hats off to the Janettes!

Contemporary? Not really. Toe-tapping goodness that sounds great? Yes, really.  I never intended to imply that this was contemporary (did I do that?). But, I do think it's "fun". Thanks for listening. Feel good country pop with the Janettes? Definitely a smile raiser...love Janice's tag too. Thanks, ray. I thought you might have something to say about the bass. I don't "know" bass and I struggle with getting it "right". It often gets away from me. I experiment more than I should.

Floyd,
Nothing wrong with this song at all. Yes, it's a lighthearted love song - it does not pretend to be anything else.
I think it sounds great - your vocal with Janice, as always, sounds awesome. Production is stellar.
No cringe here - I enjoyed this immensely.
Bob floyd
I can see why they were interested in this.
I really enjoyed it - (great outro with Janice & you trading vocals)
As always you and Janice sound great together.
Enjoyed the production notes.
Peter Thanks guys for mentioning my small contribution! Janice

Sometimes I get the feeling, that the moment when you try to apologize for a song or a lyric snippet is exactly the moment to realize, that you have created a really remarkable piece of music ...  I really like your song. It's catchy, fun and positive

I don't this is stupid love song.
I think the lyrics on spot on and reflects life.
Loved this one Floyd.

Floyd,
“Stupid Love Song” . . . didn’t Lennon say something similarly disparaging with regard to McCartney’s tunes. Thing is, folks like a simple, straightforward love tune . . . it’s what we can all relate to. This has a very 50’s feel, with a country twang to it. Probably outdated from a contemporary perspective, but it’s still catchy as hell . . . and I can see why you pitched it and why it had some interest. Amazing what a little stupid love song can do!
Good tune, well executed!
My best regards,
Deej Much appreciated, Deej Some people say the world has had enough of stupid love songs and I lie awake are the people right?? some people say the world doesn't need another stupid love song and it keeps me awake all day and night Then I grab my mouse and I pick a chord and I write a song so I won't be bored with ebony and ivory! side by side on my midi keyboard cant' you see!!!!! Oh no! This world will never get enough of stupid love songs! Oh no! Or Christmas Toys! Or guys named Floyd!! Man, that was both the best and most stupid song I have ever heard. Great job!!! I do hope this will be on SoundCloud soon. Looking forward to it!! "Stupid is as stupid does" to quote the great philosopher Forrest Grump and writing this was anything but that...it's fun and refreshing and optimistic...no one in love who feels like the song portrays thinks it's stupid...that's why writer's have gotten rich with simple, sing able, silly, swinging...dare I say stupid love songs...well written...well constructed...very well performed...and that's my opinion (unless you think I'm stupid!) Thanks, Dan! (I do not think you are stupid)

I love this song! It has the joyful love-themed lyrics that I'd like to hear a lot more of, plus it's full of joy as a whole piece. Really well done, Floyd. Thanks! Appreciate the listen... Hi floyd. This is GREAT!!! I don't know if it's an insult, it's not meant to be, but this is exactly the kind of song that I can really get behind and empathise with From beginning to end, my feet were tapping up and down, relentlessly. It was quite a podiatric workout. I love songs that you open with a chorus. They're not all that common, but they immediately get the listener into the meaty part of the story telling. This is a winner. Your and Janices vocals sit so well together! Kudos to you and your two colleagues for creating a fine song. All the best! --Noel Much appreciated, Noel...

I love your vocals, I love the Janettes, and thanks for the interesting story behind the resurrection of this song ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif) Thanks for mentioning the Janettes! 😀 Janice

Hi Floyd,
Very good song - a real toe tapper with an excellent chorus.
Well done

Superb. Brilliant. And no; not stupid at all, to my ears (what does that say about me? haha!) Especially loved the clapped off-beat section, and the Janettes were simply wonderful (the moniker is PERFECT) . If that's you being "silly", I'm in trouble Thanks, James... Floyd and team,
Yet through all the silliness you put together an entertaining song! Vocals and harmonies are wonderful! Pitch it to the same people that put Achy Breaky Heart on the map. Your tune is much classier than that one!
Seriously Floyd, I don't think you can produce a silly or bad song! They are always great! Performance and production!
Thanks, T Much appreciated, Torrey...

FJ,
"You cannot help but think "...it took THREE songwriters to write THAT?!?"
LOL just from reading this! Ok, got to get to my "listening" mode.
FJ and Crew,
Fun, optimistic, easy listening tune. Well (re) arranged and recorded. Solid vocals and Janice is a perfect choice for song partner. Interesting back story and tech walkthrough. Good one, no pun intended. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. I have some tunes from ~25 years back, I am afraid to touch them, so thumbs up for bravery and skill in resurrecting this.

I can be pretty stupid sometimes, actually most of the time, but I was smart enough to listen to this. It is wonderful! I don't know why but I was expecting something other than a shuffle. However it was the correct choice. It works perfectly. Very good vocal and the harmonies are spot on. Of course the mix and production are excellent. You and Danny must have had some fun. I would have loved to have been writing at the time I lived there. I think it was 1991. This is another one of many of yours that deserved to be cut by someone. I liked it, Tom Thanks, Tom. It's a fun song, I've enjoyed reviving it. 1991 - that was the PERFECT time to be writing in Nashville. The beginning of what would be the best (and last) "Golden Age of Songwriting". A shame you didn't stay. You've got all the right chops. And we would have likely met, then.... HAHAHA. I'm still laughing at what you wrote and I'm sure to smiling the rest of the day. Man, it would be great to sit and listen to your stories.
Yep, the song is also wonderful. It says it all --in all the ways. Terrific harmony from Mrs. Wonderful. Hats off to Danny for curating all the catchy stuff. Man, it only took three of ya to write that? Seriously folks, it IS quite catchy and hooky --not hokey at all. Hats off to the 4 of you.
Know what you mean about "sort of" separating the stems. Man, I saw the making of The Beatles new one, Now And Then, and the quality of separation of vocal from piano from John's old cassette is amazing. There is hope for the future. Appreciated, Marty...
