Wildflowers In Springtime Tom (tommyad) did all the heavy lifting on this one. He handled all of the production/mix/mastering, played guitar/steel, created the arrangement and wrote the lyric. Janice created the melody and sings. Bud engineered Janice’s vocal, took the photo and went along for the ride  Thank you Tom for inviting Janice in on this! And thank you forum folks for your time to hopefully both listen and comment.

I've listened to this a few times since I saw the upload a few days ago.
Can't really add to the comments I made over on SC other than to say that this song is one the best you guys have ever done, and you have done a lot of great songs!
Just a very special song, well done everyone!

Janice, Bud, Tom,
Stunning. Beautiful. Perfect.
The song, the production, and the performances - stellar! Top shelf. Radio ready.
This is going straight to the top of the PG Music charts.
Standing ovation.

Janice, Bud & Tom,
This is stunning and beautiful... A crystal clear vocal and arrangement filled with emotion.
There are not enough good things to say about this song...
It's like listening to a combination of Emmylou Harris, Amy Helm & Alison Krauss backed by The Band.
Tremendous!
Bob

Beautiful song, winning backing, and honey-smooth voice laying out a lyric that makes me either want to go kiss somebody, or want somebody to come kiss me. Don't fret, Bud. I don't cut in. Misty eyed and smiling here. Thanks all.

Just a very special song, well done everyone! Thanks Dave. Tom and Janice have done several collabs where he hands her a vocal free production and lets her create a melody. All of them have been fun and we are happy you like this one! J&B

Starts with a neo folk feel but soon sounds like something trad Emmy Lou Harris might do. Very nice!

That is just DAMN BEAUTIFUL!!! Some wonderful lyrics, a great arrangement, great vocal, and knockout production! Just got back from a day trip to check out some wild flowers about an hour ago. They were beautiful but paled in comparison to this song! AWESOME!!! Take care. Greg

I knew when I saw the names of who did this in the title that I was going to like this song, before I ever heard it. Three of my favorites working together to produce another fine example of good music.
There is something special about this one. The message, of course is very powerful. The arrangement and mix are spot on. The vocals are very emotive and excellent, as usual. The delivery, and the haunting melody are so compelling and memorable. The mixture of all these things make up a recipe for a most delicious serving of song.
The bar keeps getting raised around this place.
So good!
