My first thought is to mix it in only for the chorus. "Long as Me" has some of the best lyrics you've written, and I really appreciate that you're stretching yourself stylistically. Next: nerdcore?

Not that the original didn't work — it did (when did you learn mandolin?). But the addition of the fiddle rounds things out even better. The extra voice doesn't hurt either. They all add up to something I certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear on the Opry. Impressive! Not that the original didn’t work — it did (when did you learn mandolin?).
