But I'm baffled by the © date as it can't have been written in 1951 (my birth year)!
Thanks, Chay. Also my birth year --also Fender's first electric bass guitar, and Jaco, Rocco and Stanley were born in 1951. The 1951-current is my way of saying Copyrght is for money, Creativity is lifelong.

Thanks, Elliott. I used two sax players so I added a beginning and end for them to fill.

Great vocal
You found the perfect sax part for sure
Tomorrow, 7/1, is our 57th wedding anniversary so the timing of this song is extra special to me
Loved it
YEOW, MARIO!! 57 is usually on ketchup bottles not weddings. Dang, you guys must have been married the old fashioned way --at age 13. Thank you!

These two lines really stood out for us:

“I knew before two I needed you, and you were the only one.” and also
“We knew that we would live our life as one”

The sax solo fits very well and the additions from Dan give that extra lush quality.
Your vocal shines here, full of emotion.

Those sunset scenes in the vid are beautiful too.

Love it!

Thanks, you two who are one. Those lines were written with you in mind. Tell Janice I remember dates as numbers, and whenever I see those numbers I'm reminded. Like whenever I see 1021, I think of her. Whenever I see 703, I think of this day. It's just something weird my brain did since I was a kid.


Enjoy whatever happens!
