Steve,
Best wishes to your wife as she goes through the stem cell therapy.
What an incredible song you and Janice created. Can't enough good about it. I hope you'll continue to collaborate.
Again, good luck to your wife.

Hi everybody,
Just wanted to drop in and thank all of you for such kind words about this song, and especially for your well wishes for my wife (Rachel). This has been a rough journey for her with a lot of ups and downs. I got her out of the hospital over last weekend, and we have been in clinics and dr visits a good bit of the week. Her numbers are holding good, and she is finally starting to get an appetite (after 9 months.) We have one more visit with her transplant specialist on Tuesday, and if all is still well, they will remove her port on Wednesday morning, and we will be free to drive back to Texas. Once back home, they will resume regular clinics and treatments as needed in San Antonio. We continue to ask for your prayers, as this is about a 2 year journey. I am so proud of my wife. She has stayed positive and full of faith throughout this very difficult time. We are confident of victory.
About this song, I have been wanting to work with Janice for a long time. Bud and Janice have been good forum family friends for some time, and they both do incredible work. Janice knocked this one out of the park, and Bud did a superb job (as he always does) of capturing Janice's voice. I am very grateful that they agreed to add to this song. This was fun, Janice! Let's do this again, when we can...
Once again, thank you to all my forum friends for your kindness. And thank you for your patience with me, as I go through this journey to victory with Rachel. I especially thank Bud and Janice for stepping up, not only with the recording, but with responding to your comments.
All of you guys and gals (I apologize for breaking any woke/cancel culture laws) are awesome!

Beautifully written song, Steve and the vocals from you and Janice are just superb.
Best wishes to you and your wife.
Regards,
Leon Thank you Leon! Janice Fantastic! What a lovely recording. The vocal recordings from both of you are so clear. Wonderful collaboration. Great song. Great recording. Great band. Thanks! Janice Hi Stephen and Janice,
A nice, sensitive song and so well performed by the both of you.
The lyrics are very good. You can see this 'struggle with love' happening before your eyes.
And all that in 'close harmony'!
I have listened with great pleasure,
Hans Thanks Hans! It was an enjoyable project working with Steve. Janice

That was absolutely outstanding, loved it. The first thing to come to my mind was this is something that John Prine would sing!
I really like the backing tracks and especially the lyrics, very poetic. I loved how Janice change harmonies during the choruses, brilliant.
This should be on the radio. Thank you Mario. I appreciate you mentioning the harmony! Janice It is a lovely song.
I was reminded of "Old church hymns and nursery rhymes" flow wise.
Just one sugg to keep or sweep:
shorten the pause between the third and last line here and there.
Not sure if it'll add interest but may be worth a try.
Vic Sounds great Steve! Lovely breakdown arrangement, and gorgeous harmonies with Janice.  Thanks y’all! Janice

What a pleasure that duet is to listen to! Great vocals, Janice and Steve. The openness of the arrangement really lets them shine. The ticking clock was especially inspired. Really nice bits on the piano, too. Thanks David. I too really liked that clock! Janice That's something you really don't hear much of anymore. Good country duets.
Nice work from both of you. Thank you Herb! Janice I like how Janice went into character. Thank you Ed. Bud often says the same thing! Janice Lovely, lovely song!!! Great to hear two of my forum favorites collab!! I've always liked duets. Wish we heard more of them these days! Beautiful job by both of you!!! Take care. Greg Thank you Greg! Janice Steve,
Best wishes to your wife as she goes through the stem cell therapy.
What an incredible song you and Janice created. Can't enough good about it. I hope you'll continue to collaborate.
Again, good luck to your wife. That is much appreciated Jim! Janice

from a lovesick fool:
simply beautiful song, so true
you made my day !
yes, the clock was a nice idea; in commercial speak we would say it is a nice hook for the song
I love another song of yours but I don't remember the title right now
It is in my bookmarks, though
I wish the best to your wife and you
best regards

Hi Steve and Janice Oh wow! The first thought that occurred to me as I sat at my computer listening was "This is magnificent." And I write that without any hint of exaggeration. To explain what I mean, here is the definition of "magnificent," courtesy of Google.  When I read through this definition, my head nodded non-stop. ✓ extremely beautiful ✓ impressive ✓ very good ✓ excellent Steve, your production and presentation are superb. You have a knack for being able to home in on the important elements of a melody and lyric and to mix and create exactly the right sound and right strength of sound to highlight the performance. The way you perform and craft your mixes is something that I admire greatly. I love the AAA format. It's not one I have a lot of experience with. You've shown us all how it's done. Janice, your vocals are wonderful. Your countermelody in duet against Steve's melody sent shivers down my spine. The sound of the two of you together is THAT good. This was marvelous listening. This song and its performance and production are a joy to listen to. Yes. It's definitely magnificent. All the best, Noel

On Steve’s behalf as well as mine thank you so much Noel for that magnificent review! I was delighted to be a part of this beautiful song and also happy to help Steve with a bit of music therapy. Although he and Rachel are back home he still is pretty busy with her care but I know he will appreciate your comments immensely. Thank you, my friend.
Janice

Bravo, you guys did an outstand job with this. One of those songs I will go back and listen to from time to time in the future. Both of you are doing a really good job of vocal recording. Good job Bud and you also Steve. Oh, and I am not forgetting you Janice. I have just come to expect that everything you do will be great. You always live up to my expectations.
All the best,
Billy
