To be totally honest here . . . Not my style or genre and with all the synth talk I really expected not to care for it . . . I've listened to it three times now while doing some paperwork at my desk. I found this very enjoyable and have added it to my (already bizarre) playlist. That was very well done and the synth leads were very well done. Thanks for expanding my musical tastes a bit!

Yes, with that menu command just given, you may linger on those messages as long as you like. It’s not a joke; some of those messages have been valuable for troubleshooting. And if you’ve been along here long enough, you get to see things happen in a few seconds that used to take long enough to go make a sandwich.

Based on our meeting nearly ten years ago when Pat Marr coordinated, I am reasonably sure this birthday is a quite special level. Happy Birthday Mario! Thanks for all you do here.

That is a very good and appropriate comment, Laurent. It's the current regime that is shocking, not the song, and our natural reaction is to use foul language to express our dismay and distress. And the song does just that and wonderfully well. It is a lot different than using foul language to shock or just for the sake of using it to sound cool and trendy. I fully agree, John. Laurent put it better than I ever could ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif)

Pretty cool song, even though I wasn't quite sure what to make of it at first. But it really grows on you. A good story of life well told (and sung) in a slightly mysterious way. Interesting (and I mean that in a positive way)

Everything is in the default location on the internal HD. Thanks for the suggestion, but booting in Safe Mode didn't help. I just booted into SM, then rebooted into standard mode, and before opening anything else started BIAB and hit the Song Picker. Instant beach ball. I do occasionally get popups like ""Band-in-a-Box" would like to access data from other apps." which I take as a sign that something is working behind the scenes, but like I said, it remains frozen for hours, forcing me to force quit. Could it be an issue with going from 2024 UltraPAK to the 2025 PlusPAK? Should I have just spent the extra $ for the 2025 UltraPAK upgrade?

Been there, have the t-shirt... On the Help/Utilities pulldown menu, the first command, Display Log Text File, will provide a list of all those pesky boxes.

You know that I love the blues so you know that I will love these blues! As usual outstanding vocal, arrangement, guitar leads, and mix. This is better than many of the songs on Alligator records. Loved everything about this song Thanks Mario. We appreciate your kind remarks indeed. J&B

PS. yeah I know, there must be a setting buried in the mountain of other settings somewhere, but I suppose I'll never bother figuring out how it works, too busy with actual music.

Ok I really like when BB message thingy in the lower right appears: since it requires one to read it in a millionth of a second, I never manage to read it, or if I do, by the time I try to click on it so that whatever it asks me to do, it disappears. Ok that's good enough, but it could be improved, please make it a bit faster, so that it disappears more quickly unless one stops doing whatever he's doing, and immediately turns his head to read it in the hope that he'll succeed. Hopefully one day I'll learn to turn my head as fast as Bruce Lee so that I can read what these messages say. I am intrigued! Thank you PG Music.

Cool song, Andrew. Definitely captured that Split Enz vibe. The Finn brothers are amazing. Super theme and lyrics. A very clean arrangement, though I can see/hear that a LOT of work went into building the sections. It all fits together seamlessly and sounds GREAT. Love your vocals and vocal FX chain on this. Quite a lovely sound and worth repeating in my opinion. Another bright, shiny pop gem. Love it.
