"AH! But can you dance to it?" Excellent production Floyd. No "nits" from the north. {Where after a cold spell we are having a 'spring' type thaw.} I had once asked you your story and ask again. You are a talent how come you are not out there? Douglas

Slick production Floyd and I love how it drives along at a great passe. The hook is ace and the vocal are fantastic. All of the guitar parts are fantastic!! My only nit would be with the drums and how they sit in the mix. They need a bit more punch to stop them sounding like a computer program. I record using live drums and also program midi parts so I know how hard it to get a great drum sound. It's a great track but I think if you improve the drum sound it will lift the track to the next level.
Work for hire Producer. I will also produce and master any old/new work tapes up to demo standards. :-) Just PM or email: Email -- mork1976@gmail.com

Boot Scootin' Boogie, baby. Diggin them vocals- and the production is as always... On Point.
Love the sentiment in the lyrics...

You are a talent how come you are not out there? Douglas Douglas - thanks for the spin... I spent a number of years out there... I've got stories....

Andy - thanks for this. I am working on a new mix. This one was done a while ago, in an old DAW with very little processing (plugins). I work differently now (a different DAW - a wider range of processors) - and drums in newer mixes are quite a bit punchier... So if you happen back by when I get the new one up, I would appreciate your thoughts again....

Hi Floyd!
I loved the up-tempo beat of this song--we need a few more of them around here (including me). I can see there were some challenging timings with this mix, you did well. I especially like the phonetics of "Holly & Heart." This song puts me a little of a country/pop song that Rick Nelson might have done. Nice melody/nice key change.
Another one down de hatch!

Lisa What she said. Your top notch productions get well deserved praises regarding every aspect of the recording process but w/o the awesome vocal they would not be nearly as memorable. Congrats on another fine one Mr jane! J&B

No "nits" from the South either, Floyd!
Toe tappin' absolutely entertaining music. The kind you seldom hear on the radio any more these days... but they sure need to wake up. This one is a winner. So many clever lines and it is a great song. Thanks for sharing.

Really cool feel to this one. I like all the inner rhymes and the hook is unique and clever.
Holly's got a heart and she's not afraid to use it.
Very nice, an all around winner!
