[@danieljm1976]

Awesome!

[@jaygavinmusic]

Yes she's great isn't she, sings like her mom!

[@danieljm1976]

@@jaygavinmusic i never heard this tune before i stumbled across your version. Was reminded heavily of loretta lynn. Then found out it was origonally loretta. She dont sound exactly like her, but she does really good at puttin you in mind of her . And you made the sound of the mic n recording sound like that old sound of an old tine recording studio. I dont know how to explain it. I guess it sounds like she's singing through the same exact sound system they used back then. I love that more eaw sound to the music. Your version is better imo cause i can hear everything better . That electric piano riff really makes the music. In the origonal its more blended in and not as pronounced. I love it. I like your other songs too. What ive listened to so far. You're awesome man!
