This is a fun write! Leon and Janice do a great job on the vocals and the guitars sound perfect for the song. The mix holds up really well. I enjoyed my listen, Tom Thanks a lot Tom. Peter

This is a fun write! Leon and Janice do a great job on the vocals and the guitars sound perfect for the song. The mix holds up really well. I enjoyed my listen, Tom Wonderful song, love the melody --especially in the chorus. Yes, Janice can make anything better --especially songs. Good band, especially that 12-string. Enjoy everything about, including that clock in the pic (notice I didn't say especialy). You're always such a treat to listen to, Peter. Thanks guys! It was fun to join in. Janice

Peter & Leon,
A very catchy song. Good write.
The references to 60's Radio Pop are appropriate...
That repeating guitar lick serves both of those purposes well.
Nice mix.
Good vocals. Janice's harmonies are a perfect fit.

Peter,
Great 60’s folk sound here . . . very appealing to the ear and gravitating melody. Sad thematically, but well executed in the write. Terrific harmonies, catchy chorus. Liked this one a lot. Good stuff!
All my best to you,
Deej

Good song! Well done. The lyrics made me smile :-) - more than just a little tongue-in-cheek ... right? haha. More, please :-) Appreciate that and yes it is tongue in cheek. Peter Wonderful song, love the melody --especially in the chorus. Yes, Janice can make anything better --especially songs. Good band, especially that 12-string. Enjoy everything about, including that clock in the pic (notice I didn't say especialy). You're always such a treat to listen to, Peter. Thanks Marty Peter

Peter...a'60s British ballad reborn...this so reminiscent of those great Beatle's, Chad and Jeremy, etc...and even Everly Brothers tunes...being a child of that era...I love it...the music is so cool and the vocals are stellar...your blend with Janice is so good and so tight...lyrically so sweet and so cynical...loved it all! Thanks you too kind with those references. Peter

I agree and will add Peter and Gordon. Super groove and fantastic vocals and the usual outstanding mix. Great lyrics also. Appreciate those comments Mario, Peter

Great job Peter. Loved the writing and who knew you could play sitar with a country flavor? Nice sound and excellent choice for a background singer.
Brad Thanks Brad Peter

Hello Peter and Janice,
What a nice song and vocal harmonies. Oh man, loved it from the start!
You and Janice did a very good job here.
The lyrics are not giving much hope on love, but I think singing that is hoping for the opposite, isn't it? (only in this case!)
And I was glad you used the sitar too, though a little modestly, yet...
Have a nice day,
Hans Thanks Hans Hi Peter,
Good song - very enjoyable.
I must admit I was waiting for your guitar solo - next time!
Best Regards
Nigel
Thanks Nigel - quite possibly a solo in the next one. Peter

Yes, reminds me of 1960's Brit Pop.
Not my favourite genre but this has a sweetness to the melody that I like.
I like the harmonies too.
Vic
Thanks Vic Peter

Good song and I like the lyrics and how you deliver them. I'm not a fan of the sitar in the intro, but it works quite well in the outro. And of course the chorus and Janice harmonies are the icing on the cake. I would have loved to have her in the verses after the first chorus, but I guess she gets a lot of requests and the day only has 24 hours. Overall, everyone involved did a great job   Thanks for the comments appreciate them. Peter

Hi Peter, Leon, and Janice,
What a fun song! Excellent write. Good vocal Leon, and of course, always enjoy hearing Janice doing her cool thing.
Sitar, especially the outro part, was very cool indeed!
Good one, enjoyed. Thanks Dave The Variax is nice and versatile and makes recording easy by not having to change guitars around. Peter

I feeling all gushy about this one. Fantastic song! This is one of my favorite genres. And you have done it well.
Vocals are one of Leon's best, and Janice's harmony is perfect for the chorus.
Love the 12-string sound!!!

Happy love song with a dark tone, makes me smile.
The intro reminds me of The Beatles and the 60's feel is present pleasantly.
Very enjoyable chorus with nice wistful melody and chording.
Good band, guitars sparkle nicely and sitar fits well also.
Good vocals, Leon's and Janice's voices blend together beautifully.
Janne
