    I appreciate that Jeffrey really got into the spirit of it, dancing like a crooner of the time would, and the ladies' little gestures (especially the last ones at the end). It really gives that finishing touch and nicely completes the vibe that the song style starts, and the set and costume design continues.

      So, seeing as you were a high schooler from this time period, would this version of the song/performance raise concerns or be "off" if this was played in your - say - school dances/proms?

      @@AsianShadowrunner Not in the least, That Guy! Not even from my Prom Date…Mozart! 😉😄 Seriously, we were a very small, close-knit , rural high school, and community. Any thought given to the lyrics, or this version of ‘Lucky’, would probably have been considered as just ‘a sad, but danceable ballad’! Great times…sweet memories! 👍

    This has that classic PMJ feel to it that reminds me of the first year or so of your music on YT. Solid arrangements, great vocals and performances by everyone.
    Oh and Jeffrey James, it's good to hear you killing it on the vocals and working again with PMJ!

    Great decision having it sung by a man, especially as the lyrics were written in the third person anyway, and the genre choice just adds to the sadness of the words

      That 50's/60's doo-wop will do that. Also, the original is only devastating because of Britney Spears' fall from grace for most of the 2000s.
