Thumbs up from me.

Thanks, Dewey...

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 - 1992
The 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.

Production and band sound ace. The BGVs sit just right in the mix for me and sound rich. Hats off to the Janettes!

Thanks, Scott...
