    Awesome Frank. She does a great job. That said, I don't know if it's any better than your voc. But, her's might shop better.

    Glad you fixed the lyric. That "worth" line was really bugging me:)

    Thanks Tim... That line bugged us too...

    Shawna Rodreguiz is moving to Nashville this weekend...
    I hate to see her leave (my area), but she'll have a better shot up there...

    Great piece of work with the female vocals, but like Tim said, don't know if its any better than when you sang it. Female vocalists do seem to sell better, so go with it. Shawna has a beautiful voice. What ever you decide, I liked both songs. Nice arrangement, nicely sung and a great mix. Great song Frank, I like it.

    Peace and blessings, John

    Great voice and the song and production is right there.  Nice gospel edge put on this one.

    She's impressive... Very talented, what a score to get a chick with pipes like this. Gave me chills actually, like when Bobby said he was outta here again.

    She got me on the first note.

    I could hear the song of the south in the first syllable.

    Honest.





    Sort of reminds me of Marcia Ball's lower range.

    Thanks for sharing Frank.

    I've heard a great song sung by two terrific singers, now.  A song this good could inspire any number of singers to a great performance.  That's the value of good writing.

    All the best,

    GREAT vocal delivery.  Shawna's vocals really added a different twist to this piece.  At times she reminded me of Sheryl Crow . . . only with better voice control.  Shawna, good luck in Nashville.

    Very, very nice.  I just wish the piano wasn't quite so thin on the low mids.  Otherwise it's just about perfect.

    "Robby, Bobby? did he come back?"   He goes by Seriousnoise these days? But he's many people here on the forum, and said specifically that we're stupid if we think his name is Bobby? Several people on here right now, I'm not sure if he has MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder) or if it's just a game, but he's several people here... Last several posts?

    Nevermind......................


    But his other pseudonyms make various different comments. It remains to be seen if the persona who calls itself "Bobby" will re-emerge or not? 

    While I have posted under different names (unfortunately) it's because my temper used to get the better of me? And people would push those buttons... In fairness? I put those buttons out there? They are hidden keys at this point ;-) 

    But back on topic? This girl? Much respect... And some people say I'm a singer? :-) She "is a singer..." A natural born one. And she's developed that natural gift. She has a rare and special talent, and I look forward to hearing her on your stuff in the future (hopefully it wasn't a 1 time thing)

    Frank, is this the NEW UPDATED GUITAR VERSION? Because the guitar sounds pretty good... And as an "ACTUAL" guitar player? I know you could release a NEW UPDATED GUITAR VERSION. But I know you didn't actually play the guitars, so this could be a parody of another thread here talking about the NEW UPDATED GUITAR VERSION!!

    But still? I always enjoy/appreciate your "ACTUAL" guitar performances.

    And if you could post a picture? It doesn't need to be of her? It could be a swimsuit model? It just helps with the spank bank while I listen to her beautiful vocal performance... And by spank bank I mean, aummmm, I mean? It helps with the... Ahhhhh, it helps with... Ahhh, OH It helps with the ability to ahhh? Well, it would just be nice to have a picture? And we're all trying to save money in the bank? (trying to increase our amount? i.e, spank it?)  So please don't mistake my meaning? It should be clear...

    This version is really nice. A female singing it takers it to a different level emotionally.... well done.

    I've learnt to turn down my volume whenever I get ready to listen to one of your tracks, as they are always mixed to perfection. 

    This was just beautiful Frank. Shawna has a wonderful voice and will do very well.

    After this version finished, it rolled onto the same song with your vocals. Loved both of the equally.

    Thanks very much for sharing these Frank.
