Catchy melody, great singing, gospel harmony, good write, solid backing... Nice bits on the piano! It's all there.

Dan,
Great, great song and vocal. This sounds like it could have been done by The Stamps Quartet...
Loved the production as well.

That's just as spot on as it can be. Need a bunch of strong vocals to pull this off, and you brought all of them. Had to rewind when the spoken part kicks off in the background about 2/3 of the way through. Thought it was the neighbors. Nope, just a cool detail in your tune. Ha! Thanks!

Dan,
Solid. (of course!)
Amazing vocals.
Nice piano. The fiddle solo is put together nicely.
Mix is good. Jumps out of the speakers!

I've heard of the 39 Steps, the 12-step program, and an undetermined amount of steps before the queen, but the two-step to heaven? Man, wish it were that easy, huh? Well, this song is an easy way to have fun on the way. Another good write, Dan. So well produced. Sounds terrific. This could be a great song for the credit-roll of a great movie. What an ending, too, with everyone happily two-stepping into the fade.

You have a very laid back mellow feel to this one and it fits with the lyric well.
Fine vocals and a tight band too!

Dan,
What a great vibe on this one! Catchy toe-tapper with an uplifting message. That last line of the chorus is just terrific—very sing-along-able . . . in fact, the whole song is. Your usual great vocal work and production. Impressive outing . . . just a wonderful tune.
All my best to you,
Deej

Hi Dan.
This is outstanding listening. The music, the lyrics, the arrangement, the singing and the production are all really well put together. It's easy to hear that you are a very skillful musician across the many aspects of song creation. As soon as the song started playing, the first thing I did was smile, because the song immediately felt comfortable and enjoyable.
I really enjoyed going where this song took me.
All the best,
--Noel
