I remember this one. Loved it then and I love it now!! Really like the traditional folk feel with the romantic lyrics. Fiddle works great (don't remember if that was in the original), and as Floyd says "two of my favorite singers"! Great stuff!! Take care. Greg Thank you Greg. The fiddle was in the original. I think I was able to balance the mix better this time.

Enjoyed the lyrics and melody.
Top vocal performance by both of you and a very strong arrangement.
The song builds really nicely.
Just really well done. Thank you Peter. Glad you liked it.

Congratulations Lawrence (and janice ;-), jolie valse !
I must confess that I prefer the accoustic parts, and particulary the fiddle.
Cheers
Pascal Caloo, thank you for listening and commenting.

HOLY CRAP! This is GREAT! Absolutely inspiring on every level! First of all, the lyrics are amazing... they have the feel of something traditional .. enhanced by your use of somewhat antiquated terminology...
the style itself is also reminiscent of an 1800s era ballad! I experienced shiver rushes the whole time it played, from start to finish!
Janice, this is such a new and wonderful sound for you! It's different from most of what I've heard from you til now , but JEEZ! You both knocked this ball clean out of the park and into the next county!
Right from the beginning with the acoustic guitar I knew this was going to be a favorite... and then the lyrics started flowing... and then the fiddle came in... and then Janice came in... and by the time the drums made their entrance, that just pushed it over the top and clean out of sight!
Great use of dynamics, bringing instruments in and out of the mix to build and release tension... And that distorted bass!
I'm impressed beyond words... I'll be dreaming about this one! It's embedded in my subconscious now! Two enthusiastic thumbs up!
(PS this song needs to go on your GREATEST HITS collection...) Pat, thank you for such generous comments. The lyrics being inspired by a quote from Mark Twain, lent themselves to language barrowed from another era. It was fun to write. Janice certainly did knock it out of the county! Arranging is one of my favorite aspects of writing. And with BIAB you can play around with so many instruments it becomes a joy to work the arrangement out. I'm using some tricks on bass that I've learned on YouTube. Sometimes I'll use parallel processing. And on the second track I'll take most of the low end out and emphasis the HF. Then blend it in with the original track. I have also recently began using Guitar Rig's bass amp sim and am happy with the results. And finally I apply a "channel tool" plug-in that treats the mid-side. I eliminate as much of the L-R side output as I can and it really sets the bass in the middle of the stereo field. Thank you again for your kind remarks.

Great arrangement! Two of the best singers on the forum together here. What could be better than this? This treatment suits the song better than the original where if I remember correctly the vocals intertwined. Sounds fantastic! Tom

Yes you are right I slightly re-wrote my vocal and sent it to Janice and she re-wrote hers and then I went for a more traditional lead/harmony approach.
