Marty I'm late to this party but mighty glad that I came.
I agree with everything that has been said.
You know when she is the one.
Outstanding song.

Great photo!

This is a wonderful Valentine tune and sung with obvious joy in your heart
Nice mix, band and a fine sax choice.

We love the vid with the fields of flowers and the waterfall

Us two can relate and love the line, “She's the one who makes me whole” but Janice substitute “He’s” smile

It certainly made us smile!
Sweet!

Yes, Tom. Thanks so much for your comment, and my favorite part is where you sugested you do the same. It's cool when someone likes your song, but it's way cooler when they are moved to do something by it. Let's hear it, please.

I have a big smile on my face now smile
Thanks, Brain. It's also cool to know it brought out a smile.

Thanks, Chay. That sax solo was mostly right out of the box --the Band in a Box. He was going along so well with hardly a tweak, so I let him have an extended solo.

The all-conquering positivity is present in the gently flowing melody, in the smooth band, lovely sax and of course Marty vocals delivering Marty smile around the world, thank you!

Janne
Haha. Thanks, Janne. Not only do you write great songs, but always have the best comments, too. It's easy to be positive. When you find something negative, find another; put together 2 negatives and they equal a positive. Of course, apathy is often the catalyst. So in that case I just sing the chant from the movie Metballs. "It just doesn't matter." wink


Enjoy whatever happens!

Never a black moment..., at least you can hide that very good.
I love this lovesong. Also because the words you used. So lovely.
I think even my wife can fall in love with you (if she didn't have me, of course)
On YT I wrote what a nice song you made here, but I have to do that in this forum too!
Because you made a very lovely song.

Hans
Thanks, Hans. You make me smile --heck, just thinking of you I smile.

Cute pic of you two on SoundCloud.

I can hear the inspiration in the melody of the song, one of the best melodies you've written. Band, including TB Player, and the mix sound great. My top Marty song. I hope she thinks so too.
