Tasteful guitar work. Backing nicely restrained. Like it. Cheers.


Thanks Richard... you hit the high points there...

But this study in contrast between the members of a couple really opens up some interesting possibilities, and I found myself wishing the song were longer so you could keep exploring them.

I liked this line the best:

I've got shoes for every occasion
he's of the one-pair-of-boots persuasion


I also like this line:
Quote:
we might not always see eye-to-eye
but we're heart-to-heart 'til the day we die


Greg mentioned that the vocals sounded hot to him. I'm not sure I'd describe what I heard quite that way, but there was a stark clarity to them on this end. They definitely aren't obscured by the mix.

You both sing so well individually, and together you really shine. The obvious pop-culture parallel that comes to mind is Green Acres, and when Janice sang
Quote:
he calls me a "society girl"
I like living in my champagne world
her Georgia accent didn't conjure up an Eva Gabor image. wink ... so I had to ditch that comparison and let the song be itself.

I like the song that it is, and all that you both put into it.

Pat - appreciate all that... This is actually a very common theme in Country Duets (as Charlie alludes to further down)...
For instance, here is one of the classic ones - You're The Reason God Made Oklahoma

or how about Donnie and Marie (this was a VERY bad era for Country)

Janice and I are working on the Arm Swing...

That boots line is my favorite, too...
