Hello, The Too Good To Be True Trio,
Excellence all around. The scenery in the video was gorgous - almost as much so as the singer. This is a thought-provoking, beautiful lyric. And the music ... well, I have to be redundant and say it's exceptional. Peter's guitar fit perfectly in the middle of all that.
Simply put, y'all know how to write and produce some simply wonderful sounds. The musical ear couldn't have a better friend than what you folks create.
Happy Birthday, Janice! Di turnerd 78 this past Friday. I'm not far behind her - just a few months.
Di and I wish nothing but the very best for your families in North Carolina. And, of course, everyone else whose lives have been altered by Helene.
Take care and be well,
Alan

That voice sounds decades younger than 67. Beautiful and soulful interpretation of a lovely melody. I love the scenery shots throughout the video.

Lovely song you three! Enjoyed watching Janice do her cool thing, but was hoping for some footage of Peter during the solo sections  Well done, enjoyed. Thanks Dave! Since the intent was to shoot it all at the arboretum we decided a round trip from Australia might take too much time. 😀 J&B

The steeple & church hand motions were a fun treat.
Excellent song, mix, performances and a video that illustrates it really, really well.
The lush hills of your world are gorgeous.
Fabulous vocal & fabulous Peter punctuation and statements too.
Nice narrative Bud, really cool.
Cheers

Really nice sound from you all, especially those acoustics and of course, the vocal.
We are lucky to reach a certain age and be able to write about it.
Vic Yes we are Vic. Thanks for the nice comments! J&B

Love the border collie, but I love the song video and video more. Though if I met the dog, my favourite breed, that could change.  Glad you like the vid! You would like Heart more. She was an amazingly smart, friendly and loyal dog. We had two border collies over 28 years. Thanks again! J&B

Very nice. I like the overall tone of this song. Fantastic job on the vocals, harmonies, counter-points. Its a little bit folk, a little bit country. Nice lyrical ideas. Like the guitar leads, very smooth. Excellent Job!!

A lovely video for a lovely song!! Everything is in perfect balance with the mother nature. The lyrics crystallize the simple, but clever saying very thoughtfully and the video strengthens its beauty.
The arrangement, Peter's guitars and mix are top quality as expected. And Janice is the finest flower at the arboretum and her performance expresses all the goodness in the world.
Janne That is so nice of you to say all of that. And that last sentence means so much to Janice. We will share your comments with the arboretum. We hugely appreciated it! J&B

Alan Thank you for that very positive and thoughtful review Al and for the time to listen and write it. We appreciate absolutely every word of it! J&B PS Thanks for mentioning our families. They are well but dealing with the aftermath. And, hey, you are younger than Bud. 😀

Great stuff by all of you. I started with my eyes closed at first, so as to just concentrate on the music. With the first notes a smile came across my face and I remembered hearing this for the first time. I liked it then too! On my second time through I watched the video. Great stuff guys! It looks like a video would be fun to do, but I'm having a difficult time just doing the music - though maybe one of these days maybe I'll try, thanks to your inspiration.
Brad
