Pure country indeed...but not the sort I railed against as a youngster.
Nothing formulaic or insincere about this one.
Two excellent voices entwined in melody. Thanks, ray, as always... Hi Floyd & Janice,
Good work you two - a good song and very well sung.
Best Regards
Nigel Thanks, Nigel...

Janice and Floyd, this is pure country, which is a genre that I like a lot, and you more than did it justice.
Super vocals, lyrics, and mix.
Loved it.

Three things-
1-This was FANTASTIC. I think I would rather have a conversation than type out all that I like with this song. I think what's hard at times is I want to mention all of the things I hear so you realize we do hear that stuff!
So...call me...  2-I got an earful because of your song! My dad happened to be in when I was listening to it. I was going to turn it off when he walked in so we could talk and he said "don't turn that off! You finally have some REAL music you're playing. He listened to the whole thing and loved it! He asked who it was, and I told him it was Florida Georgia Line. I probably should correct him before he has too many conversations with my relatives about how he likes this Florida Georgia Line.  You should always listen to your father. 3-This HAS to be written on piano? Even if it wasn't the piano made this song even better! The perfect way to heighten a gorgeous song. That's a GREAT sounding piano btw! Nope. Written on guitar. (the piano is the Grand from EZKeys) 4 of 3-Sorry I can't NOT mention Janice. But then again he talent is so obvious do I need to. Again, you two(three) work so well together. Between her vocal and Bud's knowing how to process to what you need, it's all there.[quote] Well, of course... [quote] Thanks for sharing this one. Many listens will continue with this one! And thanks for adding your voice...

Floyd and Janice ...
I'll make this short and to the point. If someone asked me to define country music of the 80s and 90s, I'd simply give them the URL to this song. What else needs to be said? Basically, nothing.

HeartoLearn Chad, I love what your Dad said about this song being “real” music and I agree. I always love singing with floyd and truly appreciate your comments about my singing and mine and Bud’s teamwork. Babu Thanks so much Marty. And Bud and I are sure thankful that floyd is here too! Olemon, Thanks Scott! We agreed years ago that floyd and I are musical siblings.  Janice

I love it all! It's got that classic country music sound. You and Danny really wrote some good stories. It's got a conversational tone, tells the story while feeling natural, and has a "feel good" ending. My favorite line: now isn't this better, they think we're togetherAnd of course, excellent heartfelt singing. Janice perfect here - as you said, a no brainer. I like the way you snuck the drum in one bit at a time. Great arrangement. As I said - I love it all.

Misha, Andi, Peter and Torrey, Thank you for appreciating my harmony with floyd. Like y’all, I thought floyd and Danny should’ve had a hit with this one. Of course, I think that about every one of floyd’s songs! Janice

Greg, Mario, Al-David, DCuny and Scott, Thank you for the listens and mentions of my harmony. Singing with floyd is such a joy for me and I agree with y’all about his capturing the “classic country” sound. I’m hoping for many more years of our sibling harmony.

How can I write about the smile on my face? You two bring it there and keep it there. Hell, this will last much longer than 3 weeks. Sorry for smiling through your two broken hearts, so I had to listen again with more empathy. Nope. Still smiling.
Here's some of the things I say for every Floyd Jane song: Love those lyrics, man. No one says it better. Great write. If music moguls cared more about good music rather than what they sell, this would be on every radio. Like C.Aaron (Chad) said about his dad "REAL music." Vocals are outstanding, and Janice is such an intelligent choice. What a wonderful blend. The mix was obviously done by a professional.
Thanks for being here, Floyd. Excellent song/mix/master. As usual!
Gosh, you two, your voices blend so well!!
Like the piano too:)
I'm not familiar with Danny Mayo, though I recognize some of the songs he wrote. His death must have been a terrible shock. So sorry, Floyd.
Scott Thanks, Scott. Danny's death WAS a shock. It happened on his birthday. A bunch of us had gathered at the main writer's night to sing songs that we had written with Danny. Danny had booked a room at the hotel next door. That was a bad night...

FJ, Danny & Janice
Excellent country tune all around. In every genre there is always right, left, up, down. This seems to be right at the heart. I don't know Country music well, but that is how it sounds to untrained ear. Solid set of lyrics and excellent vocals by you and Janice. Mix is spotless. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. "Break my heart if you must, but comment anyway..." LOL
Fine, here is my amateur critical comment. Because of similar "crying" feel I would choose only one, either Pedal steel or fiddle.
Thanks, Misha. (It's a long standing tradition for Country to have a steel and a fiddle trading tears...)

It's all been said above. This is classic top shelf Floyd and Janice vocal work, great, sad love lyrics and superb band.
Pro all the way.

Now that's a slow dancing, beer nursing song. Your voice is in top form here. Janice's harmony lifts an already good chorus to a new level.

Excellent old school Floyd! Really love the nostalgic vibe on this! Thanks, David. Floyd,
It's a disgrace when top level work like this slips through the cracks! This is chart topping country if I've ever heard it! Somebody making decisions in Nashville really dropped the ball on this!
What a great vocal performance by both of you! Enjoyed it all the way!
Thanks, TB Very nice of you to say, Torrey...
