My boots are pretty old also! Tom


I've got jeans just as old! Thanks for the wonderful review. Everything you said has even greater meaning to us because of the consistent high quality of your writes and productions. We appreciate your support!

Such an enjoyable number. Superb vocals, amazing guitar work and a very remarkable melody.

Anyway, not surprising, because this is coming from some of the best talent on the forum.

Great job (again).


Thanks! With vocal tracks from Janice and floyd it's hard for me to go wrong at the mixing board smile

Janice, Bud and floyd,

This is such a great listen on all fronts. The lyric video is also very well done. In addition, the lyrics flow and develop the situation so well that everything about the story is 100% believable.

I've listened a few times since the song was first posted and each time, I find myself thinking "I really like how this is done" when the song moves into the chorus. When Janice sings "I'm leaving, some might think on a wing and prayer", there's a feeling of resolution and a sense of 'this is the right thing to do' that is created by the combination of performance, lyric, melody and arrangement. I don't know how you've all done this but the effect is outstanding. Janice, your vocal delivery is perfect for the main character's circumstances. As I listened to you unfold the situation, I found it impossible not to become personally involved in the story.

There is a great deal of talent on display in every aspect of this song. However I measure it, it's first class work.

Regards,
Noel
