Catchy tune in a laid back style, just the way a song should be.
I like the "medal for mediocrity" I have a trophy case full of them.
Haha. You and me both. Thanks Bjorn

This is great. It has the whole package -- good lyrics, catchy hooks, solid instrumentation, and the vocals are a good match with the tune. Like the hot ending.
Well done guys.
Thanks so much.

I really liked the lyrics and chorus - the arrangement of the song as well. I enjoy your vocal - it's laid back.

Daryl, you most definitely have your own sound. All of the songs I've heard of yours have something in them that links them together, sound wise. That's what I love about the great Burt Bacharach. You know from the first bar or two that it's a Bacharach song. Yours are becoming that way too. Not saying all of your tunes sound the same, but are in the same style and same overall sound. The Staypress Sound. Be proud of it.
Your comments made my day :) Thanks so much John

Serious_Noize!
Enjoyed hearing this one very much! The Vocals are right in front of you and easy to hear. That's not always the case in a lot of songs. But what I really like, while the vocals are right in front, you can still hear everyone else also. I'm no mix master that's for sure, but I like what I hear with the mix.
Even more so, I love the song!!!
Thanks so much Bobby my mate.

Love does mature in different ways but still can be there. This is nothing but a terrific number. I tried really hard to come up with a crit. but just couldn't find one. Parts of this song remind me a bit of Brazil '66 and I love them. You two have really put out some great songs but I would put this one at the top of the list. Excellent!!!
Wow. Thanks so much Freddy

Really clean mix. Cool song too. Like the middle bit where it drops to just bass and synth for a minute.
Thanks a lot Glennbo

Great work, mate! Every sound is a piece of art, dipped in saturation and mixed together to an quirky master-piece (pun embedded). Catchy chorus with the portamento synth following the bass living it up. Great playing as well, James! Lovely transition from wild west solo back to the chorus.
Awww thanks so much Lasse. Very nice of you pal.

Love it (except for that 90's percussion bell sound, which should be banned from ever being used again, lol).
Great song and I totally get the meaning; I've been married 20 years. Nice solo too James!
Regards,
Dan
