Hi Jane, Janice, Bud and Andi,

Thanks a lot for your lovely comments!
Like I said, the song is meant to be a bit lighthearted; of course, I don't have any secrets. Otherwise, I would have told you them ;-)

Nice lyrics, glad that you didn't share your secrets in more detail, because I don't want my mind to be blown away wink Enjoyable vocal delivery once again.

Janne

Hi Janne, yes, I used some Logic Pro samples to make the song sound more exciting in some parts. That didn't take me too long, but all I had to do was convince myself I liked them all...
The resonator was a challenge. I'd never used it before. I've only used a steel guitar once (his nephew?). I don't always like the sound of it, but here it was a perfect fit!

As always your vocals, the write, the band and the mix are excellent/
The resonator works very nicely … nice little accents.
Keep those secrets to yourself if you like …
but we’re glad you didn’t keep the song to yourself.

Well done and we enjoyed it!
J&B

Hi J&B: I have to admit, I don't know what a RT genre is. I think it has something to do with the story (which wasn't that hard to guess...).
We all have secrets, but I also thought I was usually pretty open about them. Until I started thinking more deeply..., and then there was the song!
Thanks for your comments.
