Super performances from Leon and Janice and some
delightful guitar work - wonderful "twang" on the solos.

Excellent lyrics and story-line.

Cheers, ROG.

Prayers to Morpheus in a country song - dark, deep country.
Terrific song - there's a vocal dip at the beginning of a phase at around 1.10 that should be addressed.
Fun and really well done. the solo tones are SPOT ON.
Congrats all round.


Cheers

Great work, and thanks for sharing smile

Peter: you guitar work, arrangement and mixing are excellent. The country-swing feel grabbed hold of my feet and refused to let them rest. From the beginning, I was tapping my toes along with your presentation. I always love hearing your play.

Leon: your ear-catching melody, clever lyrics and relaxed, easy singing make this an impossible song to put down once it starts. I have never come across 'contagion' in a lyric before. Also your use of 'thee' is incredibly clever. You've taken an archaic word and managed to make it sound conversational in a modern way. Then there are all those other lyric gems... the journey from coffee to knitting to Marvel comics to viruses to... you weave a very entertaining story!

Janice: it is always a delight to hear you sing. Whether it's solo, duet, background or foreground, you nail it every time! And every time I find myself just drifting along listening to you.

All the best,
Noel


Noel

Scott said it better than I could.

This is a great toe tapper that you all should be very proud of.

Super guitar chops also.

This is a keeper.
