Hi John, This is a very well written and performed song. I think your vocal rings of classic Ricky Nelson. I wanted to ask you if you perform at any live venues in Alabama? You really should, you've got some really great material. Very Good Work!
Thanks so much, Linus! I sure do appreciate the comparison to classic Ricky Nelson, cause I always loved his music. I perform a little at open mic nights and I used to play at coffee shops and a sandwich place. It was fun, but I didn't really draw a crowd. I'm gonna start playing at a farmer's market in the summer and that should be fun. Don't think I've ever been to Alabama though.
Great song! Thanks for posting a comment on my old "Tecumsehshawnee" page - a while ago I moved that song over to a new "davidhardy0101" page and posted several more originals.
Incredible song and addition to Beckys love song week. Terrific harmonies to. I wish I could listen to you tube driving to work instead of the radio. Way better songs on here
I think sometimes I'm still stuck in the 70's. Lotta great music back then. I don't have this song on a cd yet, but if you message me your e-mail address, I'll be happy to send ya the mp3 file.
Great love song John, really happy nllleonard shared it with me. I wish this sharing thing worked better, as i often miss your new post. I totally enjoyed this one my friend. Mark
What a good songwriter you are!!! This is sweet! Thanks! 5***** again for ya! I like your "take all our problems and put em in a box". I have a lyric in one of my original songs, which I'll upload soon, "When you're walking through life's roughest patch, take your troubles and put them all in a batch, Throw them up into the wind to blow away, and know in your heart there'll come a better day".
Thanks so much, Robin! I appreciate it a lot! I'm looking forward to your original, cause your line sounds better than the one I wrote. I was going to use the box line as the chorus, but ended up changing it.
Thanks so much to both of you! I appreciate it and even though it's March now, I still love watching your Jingle Bells video. You guys are great, and it would be cool to see you sing more songs!
Thanks Derek! The original chorus was the 'take all of our problems and put 'em in a box' but then I just left it as part of the verse. Glad ya liked it!
Very good one John. Liked the nice touch of harmony on the chours too. There is a hint of "America" [the group] in your songs I find, a good influence for sure. -Ron
Thanks Ron! That would be very cool with me since I've always held that band in very high regard! Like many of my musical heros, I'm sure they have influenced me in some way.
Thanks Eddie! I added the harmony cause I was too lazy to write a new melody for the chorus. Glad ya liked it and I hope you're havin' a great Sunday yourself!
Thanks Becky, if you hadn't done your challenge, the song might have sat in a drawer for who knows how long, so I'm glad I got it finished this morning.
John.. this is a beautiful love song and i just love the lyrics! and i love the harmony you added to it toooooo!! just beautiful!! cant say it any better than that! my signature approval: beautfiul!
Thanks so much, Kathy! I got the idea for one of the lines from when we were talking about some of the old songs that take us back to a simpler time, so I owe you some money if the song ever sells.
LOL... nah u dont.. its your song!... but i had a feeling that maybe that was part of it.. cus thats exactly what u made me think of in that line!!!! but thats what friends are for, and if we cant help inspire a song well what the heck!? LOL.. i am just happy i helped inspire an idea or an line!! that makes me smile and that s enough for me!
oh my gosh.. i had to stop the song before it even started as i enjoy a new song better if i read the lyrics first, then just sit back and relax while i listen.. but JOhn, i have to tell u beforei even listen, that i know i am sooooo gonna love this.. i loveeeeeeeeeeeee the lyricsssssssss so much! now here i go to listen! i will be back in 4:24 after i have heard it all!
GREAT song John! I really love these lyrics, and you sound beautiful! I feel better just hearing this one... I think this is my favorite song of all yours!!! Faved!
I'm wondering when you will stop amazing me... I'm on the verge of needing a CD... you're a great songwriter,passion and wisdom, I love it man.

Really like the harmonies to this one. One voice is calm and the other a bit strained and the contrast sounds lovely.
