Hi, friends !

My girlfriend from the past was over
to see me and I enjoyed every minute
I got to spend together with her !
She opened up my eyes to many things
I had not paid enough attention to like
f.i. the need to get in a really good shape
to be able to get rid of unnecessary diseases
as f.i. diabetes type 2 (if possible) !
Most of you already know
the story from my earlier songs, this is
probably the final one in that trilogy !

Lyrics:

DARLING (by Dani)

My Darling
you came at last, my love from the past
and I fell for you
now you´ll always be, the one for me
and I´ll love you true
I hope someday, you´ll find my way
and I hope you´ll be, forever you´ll be
here to stay
I´ve been dreamin´ about your love
every night and day
it´s been this way, every single day
since you went away

and Darling
I would like to show, how I love you so
I´m forbidden though
even if I found , to your love I´m bound
and my love will grow
I will have to do, with the thought of you
and I miss you so that it hurts and makes me blue
I´ve been dreamin´ about your love
every night and day
it´s been this way, every single day
since you went away

Love, I was your first true love
and then you were mine, for a time so fine
and now, my love, I really don´t know how
but you fired up my body and my mind

So Darling
you came at last, my love from the past
and I fell for you
now you´ll always be, the one for me
and I´ll love you true
I hope someday, you´ll find my way
and I hope you´ll be, forever you´ll be
here to stay

Love, I was your first true love
and then you were mine, for a time so fine
and now, my love, I really don´t know how
but you fired up my body and my mind

Oh Dani, absolutely my favorite of your originals you've done so far that I've heard. The backup vocal was superb. Great job.

Regards,

Charlie

Really nice Dani!! You have an amazing falsetto! This one has a bit of a motown vibe to me. Did you listen to motown much growing up? Great work! Greg

Hi Dani,

What a very original song! And a very nice "collaboration" of the high and low voice. The pedal steel guitar is also very functional in this song.
And yes, ex-girlfriend's are always a nice topic for a song whistle

regards,
Rob

Hi Dani,

it's got you pretty badly. So I hope this won't be the last song from that series.
This is easy listening at its best.
Like that falsetto harmonies. Would have wished some more voices.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi, Greg !:))

I am truly glad and
humbled by your most
kind words ! Yes, you are
right, I have always loved
Motown music (like Diana
Ross and the Supremes etc.)!

I´ve got to sing a lot of falsetto
as I usually sing tenor (in falsetto)
in a barbershop quartet !:)), but
in fact I am a II base !

Cheers
Dani

Hi, Rob and Anne- Marie !:))

I am very glad
you liked this
little tune of mine !
The echo device i.e. to
repeat the lead derives
from barbershop where we
use to call it " Call and Response"
or "Echo" ! :))

Cheers
Dani

Hi, Guenter !:))


Thank you so very much
my friend for your most
kind assessment ! Yes,it
got me really badly I must
admit, but then again, you
know how it is, I just could
not help it !!!! :))
You may be right regarding
the story still continuing.....?

Maybe I resing this tune
at a later stage and add
a lot more voices, I don´t know
yet, I did ponder on the issue, though !

Cheers
Dani

Hi, Jo !

That was really very nicely said from you !
I think you are completely right in your
assessment as she really opened my mind
to see the world anew ! I have been exercising
since she left and have dropped 4 kilos so
far (I promised myself I will drop at least 10
so I am heading towards the target fast) !!!:))
I know how to do it as I have done it before
when I stopped smoking but that was some 25 years
ago and it ain´t quite that easy now (but
I am determined to get rid of my diabetes )!!!!

Jo, thank you for your kind words, I will be at
home today so I will watch your and Danny´s show
tonight !:))Really looking forward to it !!
I think I´ll send you a message !!!:))


Cheers
Dani

Very nice harmonies. Great control and sound
with the falsetto. A wonderful chronicle of
a sentinel event. And a nice airy mix to wrap
It all up.

Your muse is always active... I'm
waiting to hear from mine!!

Hi, Janice & Bud !:))


You are all too kind with this
old crooner, but you know that
your kind words really lift me
up ! :)) My muse, yes, went back,
but the nearness of her still
lingers in my mind and memory
forcing me to express my feelings
in one way or another presumably
thru writing songs !:))

Cheers
Dani

Cool song, Dani... good mix...smooth.

Excellent falsetto! You could do a duet with yourself!

A silky sound.

Hi, Floyd, my friend !!:))

You are all too kind with
me, but you know your most
kind words are much appreciated !
I could sing a duet with myself, yes,
but I would have to write one
first (chuckle) !! :))

Maybe I´ll write one some
day ? :))

Thank you for your most kind
and inspiring words !:))

Cheers
Dani

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
