Hi, Friends !:)) I thought you might want a little harmony to start off the new year !:)) http://soundcloud.com/dani-lindroos/sad-girl http://app.box.com/s/dh59rhmdv46cev9d33dk58ei10z6k0bvThis tune is about a melancholic girl who goes around trying to find a true companion to love ! Sadly enough this is based on a true story ! the style is UKPOP66.STY and the instruments are: Bass: 36 fretless Elbass Piano: 2 Bright piano Drums: Realdrums = Country Shuffle Guitar: 30 Overdrive guitar Organ: 19 Rock Organ Guitar: 28 Clean el guitar Recorded and mixed with mixcraft 6 Zoom H4n used as mic. Solo by me and fills by biab Lyrics: MELANCHOLY GIRL (lyrics and music by Dani) Why is everything so grey? Why am I so sad and blue? Is there noone in this world for me? Is this really where I´m supposed to be? I´ve been down and out, they say When you´re sad you´rnt really you gotta raise me up and start to live gotta take and most of all to give Bound to walk my path and pray that I´ll find a love so true all my life I´ve been waiting on my part for the one to come, to give my heart I have so much love inside, you see waiting for someone to give it to and I´m still both young and oh so free waiting for that love me do (solo) all my life I´ve been waiting on my part for the one to come, to give my heart I have so much love inside, you see waiting for someone to give it to and I´m still both young and oh so free waiting for that love me do waiting for that love me do

Hi, Friends !:))

Yep, good harmony is a fine way to start the new year for sure and this tune has plenty of it to show off.
You have a wonderful signature style and we always look forward to hearing your latest...and this one certainly did not disappoint. The write, the vocals and the arrangement really showcase your unique talents.
We enjoyed the spin!

Hi Dani.
Having read the lyrics before playing the track, I wasn't expecting something which swung as much as this did!
Great backing and excellent vocals + harmonies.
A sad song, but with a happy feel.
ROG.

HI Dani ...
You have your own, very recognizable style ... and we love it! The music tracks reminded us a little bit of the Partridge Family. You have a soft and pleasant vice ... so easy to listen to. The harmony was terrific! Nice solo, too! We loved it ... thank you ... in harmony from both of us ...

Dani, It's great hearing those harmonies. Reminds me Brian Wilson. Super chord progression and and arrangement. Well mixed. I don't remember you playing on anything before. So you've got a few tricks up your sleeve. Way to go! Tom

Really cool music and harmonies!! The way the music wanders, never resolving but always keeping the listener going, reminds me of Todd Rundgren. This is very sweet Dani! Enjoyed it much!! Glad to see you around! Take care. Greg

You know Tom !
I am an old rhytm guitarrist and it is only lately that I have taken up lead guitar playing which is not my strongest side.......learning all the time, though !
I started playing lead when one of my old band members ( The Bananas) wanted me to join his band ! We have just started and we try to play a lot of old Shads´and Ventures´hits from way back ! I´ll send you a demo attached to a PM ! Now, my good Tom, I must thank you for your most kind words really much appreciated !
Cheers Dani

Hi Dani, It's great to see another song from you! This is superb. The melody and the accompaniment are fantastic. I love the way this upbeat backing gives a sense of hope to the lyrics. Great harmony, too. I have to hand it to you, there's no other Finnish crooner like you Best wishes for a great 2016, Noel

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."
