What a trip! Love the commitment to the old-school vibe. Janice is absolutely rocking the "ageless enchantress in the woods" look. And Peter, a glimpse of the Les Paul is always appreciated – it's like spotting a rock and roll unicorn.
Janice, your "play acting" (as Bud so modestly puts it!) is captivating. It makes a refreshing change from the rapid-fire edits that can sometimes feel like a visual caffeine overdose.
Seriously though, that swampy blues arrangement is fantastic. Taking a dark lyric from the 20s and giving it this new life? Brilliant. It's like the music crawled right out of the Mississippi Delta and into your iPhone.
Janice's vocals are incredibly convincing and those swampy woods totally sell the whole thing. Well done, all!"
Overall, I love the blend of old and new. You've taken a dusty piece of public domain history and breathed new life into it. I can see why you wanted to give this gem a new life. Remarkable stuff ! 💗 👋👋👋 💯 👍 🆗 ✔️✔️

- and Janice, don't reveal the hair-dye secret! 🤣

Izzy, thanks so much from all three of us for such a gracious review. We were surprised at how few musicians had recorded it and could immediately picture some of the scenes for the lyric. My younger sister sends a big thank you to you also as my “play acting” began when we were children playing make believe. 😉
