Ms. 'Sundance'... After listening to Mercy (God is Good), I realized with a sense of pleasant surprise that I had forgotten what a fine singer you are . Your vocal intro was sung in as gentle a manner as a mother would sing to her new-born infant, but at the same time, it also sounded like a quiet, two-note wake-up call to the masses to come to you, to listen to you, and heed your reassuring message. And then, those drums! POW! They really put the song 'on wheels' and sent it on its jam-tastic, upbeat way. But, most of all, I'm very impressed with the song's arrangement! Lots of instruments: sax, strings, a choir, your voice and its harmonization, changes in the drums' rhythms, bass, piano, acoustic guitar, all really smoothly blended in an imgainative way, musically and mix-wise. Your husband has a commanding, yet warm voice that was perfect for the monologue he provided -- wouldn't be surprised if he was a minister !!! Truly, LOREN (a.k.a. 'bluage') Wow Loren, what a descriptive review. I'm so happy you liked it. Thank you! My husband was in broadcasting most of his working life.

Hey! It's great that you posted this. Really nice song. Loving the vocals. Especially the held out ones.
When you said a special guest, you husband, I was expecting singing. I caught me off guard; but worked really well!
Now, keep 'em comin'! Good stuff! Thank you HTL! So glad you liked it. BTW, check out the new avatar - it took time but the scars really did fade - just like you said! Hug your wife for me.

Josie,
I have not heard this before. What a great set of lyrics and of course the wonderful delivery.
Perfect timing for this song as well - something we can all use right now.

We are happy that you have returned to the forum community! We enjoyed the upbeat lyric, the vocal and the guest! The mix sounds good on the monitors. There is a lot happening with the tracks but everything has it's own nice little spot and the mix has an airy feel. Excellent vid image also. Nice! J&B PS: I Saw Elvis At The Quick Stop came up on our playlist the other day Thanks so much J&B! That's so nice to hear from y'all.

Nice one. It's good to hear something from you. It's been a while.
This is really good. Loved the intro and the harmonies are spot on. You have such a smooth relaxing voice.
I never heard the longer "epic" version but this goes to show you CAN shorten those songs that are really long and still have a great song. Thank you Herb! I appreciate that.

I really like this one, Josie!
Lovely vocal, and excellent job on the vocal production, very cool what you did there. Your husband sounds good too!
Great to see you with a new song. Thanks Dave! I needed that. Sometimes I feel like a mad scientist in there with all the production choices.

Hi Josie, It's great to see you wandering around in Users Showcase once more. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to your singing again. This song is a wonderful showcase for your outstanding voice. I love this arrangement. Throughout, you kept my imagination piqued with interest. Not only that, but the calibre of the production is fantastic. I know that I'm stating the obvious but I'll say it anyway... you really are a very talented woman. Stay safe and all the best, Noel

Hi Josie,
I wish I would have been listening to Christian music in 2008. This would have been on the play list. Your voice has hints of Karen Carpenter sometimes through the song.

Nice song Josie. So good to be reminded of God's love for all of us. The song has a lot of variety and I can hear a large church choir singing it. Very uplifting worship song. Thank you Donna! Yeah, I love the Brooklyn Tabernacle choir's "His Favorite Song Of All" - I bawl like a baby every time I watch the video. When I was a kid I had an album of choir music that I loved and played until I wore it out. I only got to sing in one really big choir - it was a classical thing. The room was hot with those robes on. I was on the front row and right after the last song ended - thank God - I made it through the whole thing - I passed clean out. LOL! I was so embarrassed. I still laugh at myself over that one.

Nice song Josie. So good to be reminded of God's love for all of us. The song has a lot of variety and I can hear a large church choir singing it. Very uplifting worship song. Exactly! This is the best new worship song I have heard in a long time. Everything about this is just plain perfect. This should be played on not only radio stations but all radio stations. Everyone needs to hear this right now! Mario thank you so much. What a nice thing to say.

This sounds great Josie! Great to see you again! I have been away a while myself. So glad to hear you again! Thanks David! Right back at you. Josie, The original was way before my time here- its a lovely uplifting song in this new guise with your sweetly held notes the highlight. Welcome back! Robert Thank you Robert. It's never been posted here or anywhere before - i started messing with it last year but I still wasn't able to be at the computer for very long at a time. I finally get well and now there's coronavirus....I digress.

Hi Josie ...
This song could not have come at a more appropriate time for us. We just learned our daughter has stage 3 cervical cancer.
It's wonderful sing ... well-written and arranged. And yours and your husband's vocals were perfect. The message is what we need at these times ... all of us, not just my wife and I.
Excellent in every way! You should be very proud of this one!
Wishing you the very best. Please be safe ...
Alan
