Janice could sing entries out of the phone book and I'd like it, but even allowing for that, this one shines through. A wonderful performance which she does so effortlessly.

Super backing, loved the slide and an excellent mix to finish it off.

Good work.

ROG.


Thank you ROG! The first time I heard the song I realized that the lyric just sings. It was a fun project and I'm so glad you liked it.

This song is so cute! I absolutely love the lyrics, especially this part! Sometimes the person you want to be with just isn't ready for that sort of a commitment. You know it's true love when the other person is willing to wait until they are ready.

Keep up the great work!


Thanks Ember,

you summed it up perfectly, I don't know how cute it is but I'll take it

appreciate your kind words

Sounds to me like Janice is "gettin' her Bonnie Raitt on". Just one more tool in an incredible kit.

Excellent job, y'all.

Thanks floyd,

I love that chorus and Janice delivers it so well,

I didn't think about Bonnie Raitt but now that you say that, yeah, I hear it

Appreciate your kind words always

how did I miss this til now?

This song has the feel of a classic to me... like something you'd hear on an oldies station for 50 years in a row because it has such resonance with a generation!

Good call getting the Merritts involved! They should change their last name to Midas because everything they touch turns to gold!

But it helps to start with a good song in the first place, and that's surely the case here!

Bright little tune and that I really liked. It shows how not over-thinking things can be a great asset at times!

Now, about the singer...I'll just say a perfect choice. I will "click on" every song I see her name attached to smile Which is getting to be a fair amount of clicks these days! There is an obvious reason for that. Really well done!


Thank you HearToLearn,

appreciate the very kind words, I think we're all in love with Janice's voice

and I don't think anyone's ever accused me of over-thinking anything .

Janice, Bud, and Kenny, you've delivered a real winner here. This song has got absolutely everything.

The rhythm section is keeping everything held together perfectly, lot's of drive, and all embraced in a superb set of lyrics delivered with Janice's usual perfection.

Hello, Kenny, Janice & Bud

Very nice collaboration!
Very happy tune.
Wonderful Vocal.
As Dave said, Janice's vocal performance also reminds me a little of Linda Ronstadt, very pure with great tone as usual.
Electric Vintage Piano is very effective.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Great song, Kenny. Love the lyric, melody and backing tracks, particularly the slide guitar. And Janice's vocals are always top shelf. This is another great job by her. Terrific in all ways. Standing "O" for all involved!
