Hi Floyd ...
Musically, quite a bit different than what you usually do. But I like it!
As always, your track selection and mix is spot on. The lyric says it all. But I think your chorus, in it's simplicity and very appropriate message really captures the heart of the song. Well done and the best advice possible. When a song is well conceived, well constructed, well delivered, and says something worthwhile ... you can't do much better. Just my thoughts.
Take care and be safe.

FJ, raising a bar in turbulent times takes skill and will. Excellent supportive song! You really got a hang of using contemporary sounds and still have a traditional Country feel of your tunes. Listens very smooth. When I try to do something like this, it either sounds too banal or too weird, you on the other hand found a solid middle ground fusing styles. Mix & vocals are A+ (I would not expect less ) Thank you for sharing! Misha.

Man, you are the master, floyd. You make me wanna kneel on the floor raising my arms up and down while bending my head low. Whenever I hear one of your productions, I always feel, "Yeah, that's what I want to be able to do." Well done! Well said!

Dear Floyd,
WOW - I wouldn't be surprised if this song would break the charts...
Thanks a lot for chosing the subject, and thanks a lot for working it out with such a heck of a tune. Top-notch lyrics, fantastic melody (and what a chorus...), a great backing track and your vocals are simply gorgeous and very convincing.
Good, good, good....
Stay healthy, silverback !!!
Stefan

1st verse...aw, a love song. Chorus-See, this is nice 2nd verse-those people are idiots and they get what's coming to them. (Exaggeration) lol Chorus to End-See, this is nice Great section builds in this. Just the perfect song for current events. I hope it makes some people on both sides of the fence think! What a cool song! So, I responded and am now left with nothing to do. I guess I'll just sit here and wait until you post your next song later this morning.

That's the way it's done. It's got the plausible deniability of appearing to be "just" a love song, with the specifics being vague enough to apply to just about any relationship. Of course, well written, sung, and produced. Pop and fun to listen to - loved the claps and other loops.

Floyd you knocked it out of the park again!
A great message here.
This should be on the radio ASAP.

That's cool - a U2 style ballad in the backing and an fj style narrative & melody on top. Works wonderfully well.

This song will be around and relevant as a great song long after Covid-19. The lyrics are as appropriate to general 'love' as they may pertain to the virus.
Instrumentally and lyrically you've written a song that's as pertinent to life after Covid-19 as it is to our current circumstances. Every now and then a song comes along that touches us. You've hit on every now and on every then. You sure pulled it off with this one. It makes my list of favorite Floyd Jane songs...
Enjoyed my listen.
