A beautiful song and almost faultless in every respect.
Right up to the highest standard that we've come to expect from your work and the addition of Janice's voice is just the icing on the cake. Icing... indeed. Did I say ALMOST faultless? Well, I have to agree with Josie - I'd have liked the harmony on the start of the lines, but yes, that's being really picky! OK, then... I re-mix it. I appreciate the input. After all... faultless is the goal... An absolute classic of the genre.
ROG.
ROG - thanks so much.

Hi Floyd
playing catch up again - as usual.
Fancy you once throwing this away.
Very archetypical Country Waltz with broken heated lyrics. (Not being cynical)
Interesting to me that there is only one Verse but two full choruses. Unusual but very effective.
The Mix is tops too. I really enjoyed the solo piano - dunno why I think it but it had a Floyd Cramer touch to it - but thats just me. It worked perfectly.
cheers
ian

I can appreciate the "this line has to stay" as there are times I have battled with my co-writer to keep a certain line in a song that she thinks should be rewritten.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hey y'all, thank you so very much for the nice comments about my part in this song. I appreciate them all. I really enjoyed this project because Bud and I have listened to "country heart" songs for many years. Singing with floyd on such a great write made everything even more fun!

I always know I'm in for a treat when you post and this one somehow stands out even more so.
I absolutely love the vocal only intro - ghost of the ol' possum his 'self.
and I'm in the corner for keeping "broken" it is a very vivid image and completes the lyric "on the tiniest part"
And of course the vocals and harmonies are sweet!
much enjoyed

Floyd,
What a nice country waltz. The vocals are great, as is the mix! The piano is very cool, but the steel guitar is working for me!
I really like it!

ian Thanks ian. That one verse seemed to have worked out pretty well. I may have to try that again. Cramer practically invented that style piano playing. Appreciate you droppin' in...

much enjoyed Lawrence - appreciate that. A good friend of mine told me that he "wasn't sure" about that beginning. I said "too bad... I like it!" And I appreciate the vote on "the line". Thanks.

It lives up to your motto "Music the way we like it."
It's good to hear a song that takes it's time, and lets the music breathe.
But I agree with Josie that "broken" breaks the flow in a disagreeable way.

Floyd,
I've been out for a while, fighting some of the battles of life. I almost missed this one, and really glad I caught it.
First class stuff from the very first note til the last. Great vocals. You and Janice really blend well together. And in my opinion, the lyrics are very well crafted. Really holds your attention all the way through. Really like this one.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
