Happy Valentine's Day!
We’re snowed in
So what to do
Well sweet thing
I’m looking at you
How about it
What do you say
A great thing
To do today
That was good
You did just fine
That was really
A good time
How about another
It would be great
A real good reason
To celebrate
Are you sure
You have it in you
Remember you
Are not twenty-two
I can do it
Yes my dear
Pass that crossword
Over here

I listened to this numerous times, but hadn't been able to comment any of them. I loved the lyric when my dad read it to me. He was worried maybe he shouldn't post it, but I loved the twist and how light hearted and fun it was. The song only adds to that. You two made a remarkably timeless sounding song that is just a joy to listen to. I really couldn't love this any more and it has been a highlight of my FAWM! :)
@tunecat Mar 2022
Ha ha twist in the tail!! Great confident rendition of this tongue in cheek risqué lyric that plays on our dirty minds
@sheslin Mar 2022
Oh yeah this is awesome! Love the vocals - you sound great together. Very nice guitar also. Wonderful musical treatment for these sweet lyrics. Such an engaging melody and fantastic performance. Great collab!
@yewnorker Mar 2022
Really fantastic duet. Great lyric. Well done
@elainedimasi Mar 2022
Love this old-timey duet even before the punch line drops. And then the punch line drops. And then the genius spoken outro! What a great collab!
@guatecoop Feb 2022
oh your collaborations are so cool! Your voices work so well together in a classic way. This could be on one of those old movies with Fred Astaire or something. Great Great Great! These collaborations are becoming something to look forward to each year! I hope that this continues--more please!
@arthurrossi Feb 2022
Funny lyrics with a lovely twist at the end, that´s genius. Such a gorgeous upbeat tune and what a fantastic duet you two! Made me smile throughout, beautifully done!
@ofishell Feb 2022
LOL - the bae reference at the end! Ah, the kids and their words.
So sweet, and y'all's harmonies are perfect. Such a lovely find this morning. @srcoops - really great lyrics!
@bethdesombre Feb 2022
Yes! So much fun, so sexy, so playful, so . . . wordy?
@vomvorton Feb 2022
So cute and old-timey! Love your voices together, this is great :)
@rayboneor Feb 2022
I listened to this twice without even thinking about what I was going to say. What other homage do you need--it's so good, so sweet, so funny, and the performances are perfect
@metalfoot Feb 2022
I don't know that there's a more iconic FAWM vocal duet team than cleanshoes/jeustan. The two of you have such a great vocal blend and your styles merge so well.
I love the playfulness of the lyric as well, which comes out splendidly in what you've done musically!
@johncrossman Feb 2022
Sweet stuff and such gentle fun, what a complete little number. So natural. Very nice.
@mandolinda Feb 2022
Very nice lyric @srcoops, you have just the right touch of fun and sensible. Love the duo singers, playful and provocative. Really nice listen.
@hbusse Feb 2022
How can you not like this song?! So incredibly charming. And great punch line at the end there :) (from someone who loves crosswords)
I also had the She & Him thought!
@majordanby Feb 2022
Ooh, I do love a male/female duo, especially one as great as this.
The hmmm harmony bits are especially nice. The simple composition leaves lots of space for the vocals. Very good collab of three.
@radiobenedetto Feb 2022
Love the humming harmony solo! What a sweet ditty. Great lyrics and the singing and harmonies throughout are wonderful. it has a great old timey feel. There’s a scene in Only Murders in the Building where Steve Martin has a faux romantic montage that’s actually a game of double entendre scrabble.this would fit perfectly over it. Nicely done!
@thetau Feb 2022
Oh so very nice this is... I especially like the way you manipulate the Lyrics rhythmically.
@adforperu Feb 2022
Ah this is such a joy. Lovely matter-of-fact lyrics from @srcoops , and the little country inflections from @jeustan and @cleanshoes are a delight. This is most "sung" thing I've heard from Leah (if that makes sense) and it sounds so so great. Is it too obvious for me to say this reminds me of She & Him?
@popmythology Feb 2022
Aww, that was sweet. Really enjoyed it, both of your voices are wonderful and complement each other so well. Also loved the spoken dialogue towards the end. Oh, but just one thing: when I hear, "You did just fine," I usually interpret it as the opposite, LOL.
@davidtaro Feb 2022
The ‘remember you are not 22’ and the ‘pass the crossword’ denouement are glorious, great writing! Such a perfect collab - as others have said the chemistry between your voices is incredible, love the ad libs at the end, and overall it’s just so goddamn sweet, really brightened the day - thanks guys!
@danvaillancourt Feb 2022
YES! Your collabs are the best. Swinging and lovely to listen to. Love the build up throughout the song to end on the kicker in the last stanza.
@markg Feb 2022
Oh no, that ending! At least it probably lasted longer than a Wordle.
Nice jazzy swing vocals.
a sweet song for Valentine's day
@guitarpatz83 Feb 2022
Ah how gorgeous is this! Great harmonies, loads of fun, like a Randy Newman lost cut from Toy Story. Lovely lyrical twist and the mmms are placed so well. Spoken word crossword clues at the end! Amazing. Did you ad Lib those bits? Great work all!
@crisp1 Feb 2022
I knew there had to be a twist coming! Cute lyrics and a wonderful performance by Justin and Leah for a wonderful three-way collaboration! All kinds of good!
@ampersandman Feb 2022
Ha, these lyrics! Such a classy delivery of them too, the duet form makes me think of classics like ‚Baby it‘s cold outside’.
@ayehahmur Feb 2022
Well this has masses of charm. A lovely, knowing coyness to the lyric. Some wonderfully non-obvious chord choices and two simply perfect voices. Love hearing you two singing together. This one is a favourite.
@coolparadiso Feb 2022
a great line up! I knew Leah and Justin would sound great well played y'all @srcoops you getting the big guns out what a bunch you have this year!
@kenmattsson Feb 2022
Lovely harmonies, and a lovely feeling of "not much going on here". The spoken words at the end are so good!
@jonmeta Feb 2022
Hahaha, love the punchline! Indeed, a good crossword may be better than the other (sometimes!). And of course — it had to be a duet. This has the laid backness of a Welch-Rawlings tune, delivered with the wink the @srcoops lyrics deserve. Love the mmmmmms.
@gwyn1234 Feb 2022
This makes me so happy listening to such a deftly delivered organically perfect duet...love it so much!
@katestantonsings Feb 2022
This is incredibly charming. Your voices sound so good together. Nice lyrics--love the twist!
@wrenarcher Feb 2022
I am grinning so hard my cheeks hurt.
Kudos to @srcoops on the lyrics.
The harmony and individual singing was just magical.
I love this so much.
So glad this song came into my life. It is awesome.
@srcoops Feb 2022
You sing very nicely together. Nice job on a kind of goofy lyric.
@dzdandcunfsd Feb 2022
Always happy when you two sing together, both your voices compliment each others so well. Those harmonized hmmm's are magical, and love the chit-chat!
This is such a sweet and charming lyric as well.... no double entrendre here no siree
@tseaver Feb 2022
Lovely Western Swing duet, and such a great tip of the hat to the day. Great twist in the ending.
