HIGHLAND GIRL 03/12/2016


LOOKING BACK ON HOW WE MET
ITS A NIGHT ILL NEVER FOREGT
TOSS OF A COIN AND I HELD MY BREATH
AS YOU WALKED IN THE ROOM

GUESS I KNEW RIGHT THERE RIGHT THEN
ID NEVER LET YOU GO AGAIN
BUT THE NIGHT WOULD COME TO AN END
WE SAID GOODBYE TO SOON

OH OH MY HIGHLAND GIRL
BORN TO THE HEATHER
AND THE SOUND OF A DIFFERENT WORLD
FROM BERNERAY TO ROMAY BAY
YOU MAKE MY DREAMS COME TRUE
OH HIGHLAND GIRL I LOVE YOU

REMEMBER HOW THE TIME FLEW BY
YOU WAVED TO ME AS I SAILED TO SKYE
I SAW THOSE TEARS IN YOUR EYES
AND I SWORE ID BE BACK SOON

NOW THOSE DAYS SEEM SO LONG AGO
AND THAT WEDDING BAND TELLS ME SO
AND EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT HOW I FEEL FOR YOU

OH OH MY HIGHLAND GIRL
BORN TO THE HEATHER
AND THE SOUND OF A DIFFERENT WORLD
FROM BERNERAY TO ROMAY BAY
YOU MAKE MY DREAMS COME TRUE
OH HIGHLAND GIRL I LOVE YOU

TWO LITTLES CAME ALONG
AND WE TOOK THEM BACK TO THE ISLES
WERE FAMILY LIVE IN HAPPINESS
ALONG GODS GOLDEN MILES


hope you enjoy

Brad,
Very enjoyable - especially your vocals.I also enjoyed picturing the song sung to the anniversary couple in the location you describe ( sandwiched between a few celtic tunes?).
Nice work.

Hi Biglad!

I haven't been active on this forum in a while, so this is the first song I've heard from you! I like the way you've assembled and mixed the song, and the lyrics are certainly compelling. I can't help but think it would have worked as a Celtic song too.

I like your telecaster, by the way!

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
