That's a a real tear jerker you made, Floyd!
A genuine 'FJ' song: heartbreaking, wonderful lyrics and lovely melody.
All brightly recorded as all of your songs.
I thought: Christmas has started here!
I enjoyed it, but that is nothing special; that is the case with all your songs.
Hans

A slow-dancing classic in the making.
The lyrics, melody, production--This is one of those songs that goes straight to the heart.
Nice work, Floyd.

So many'forevers' end up that way. So glad I hit the bullseye when I did.
Sad song with top class lyrics and expertly sung andvproduced as ever.
Bests
Ian Ian - good to see you drop by. Thanks. FJ,
Beautiful tune. Lyrics and vocals are fantastic! Your arrangement and mix never disappoint.
Strings work extremely well. The only thing I found a bit of distraction is kick drum. I think I understand what you were aiming for, and it might be very likely have to do with my headphones, but they sound a bit hot to me.
In any case, this is a VERY successful tune. Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thanks, Misha. THe kick has been "called out" by several people...so I guess it is a bit hot. Part of the experimenting and searching as the sound evolves. I appreciate that you "get the new stuff" and seem to be embracing the journey as well...

What a lovely intro Floyd. Set the song up for a awesome vocal and lyric. Storytelling at its finest. Beautiful song. One of my favs. Well done Thanks, Scott... You keep setting the bar high on this forum. Saying " Good job " just doesn't do it proper justice.
It's all good. From the writing, to the choice of tracks, to the singing, to the production. Appreciate that, Herb... The song, lyrics, performance, backing, production are all great.
Everyone else else beat me to all the superlatives this deserves.
Very tasty indeed,
Cheers,
Mike Thanks, Mike!!

"that's a lack of commitment that i regret a huge chunk of stupid that i won't soon forget" Well, that nailed the feeling. "Two verses and chorus and I'm outa here." Easy to say and hard for many to do. But someone once told me that if you can't say it in two you may have nothing to say.  Well you can do that and the resulting lyric never seems too sparse. The story is there. Your great vocal (that phrasing) and the fine band and mix have amply been praised so we'll add but mega dittos! Loving your art also. Outstanding mr jane, J&B aka usual suspect Thanks, y'all! And, again...thanks for noting the art work! Here we go again! Another great write and production. Your vocal also reminds me of Ronnie Dunn. This is a beautiful ballad to add to a long list of fine compositions. Could it possibly be that you’re getting better at this? I thought you passed that can’t get any better than this mark a long time ago. You are definitely a songwriter’s songwriter, Tom I certainly appreciate that, Tom. Hope we'll se more of you this year!!!

BEAUTIFUL!!!! POWERFUL!!!! EMOTIONAL!!!! One of your best lyrics ever Floyd, and that's saying a hell of a lot!!! Really love the arrangement, and the way you processed the vocal!!! Chorus totally POPS!!.......GRABS YOU!! Great work my friend!! Take care. Greg Much appreciated, Greg. Thanks!!! Floyd,
Too many great lines in this song to quote.
Production is completely dialed in. You are singing at such a high level - not sure it could get any better.
Sounds like the opening cut on side two of your album...
You are giving us your best!
Bob
Thanks for the great comments, Bob....

Floyd,
I'm extremely late to the party but I'm glad I caught this one! I immediately noticed the lovely cello, it's perfect! The background oohs were very effective! Your voice sounds fresh and has been recorded very nicely! This is another hit worthy song that fits very well with your awesome catalog of work! Thanks, Torrey

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."
