This song has a simple message, kind of a reminder to myself also: small thoughtful words can be of great importance to someone and one true fan is more valuable than number of listeners or likes in the social media.
Thanks again to Miira for her great vocals. At first I thought that this song would not fit her voice, but she managed to sing so well that I don't have to look for another singer.

Lyrics:
You don't need a crowd to praise you when you play guitar You only need one to tell you how important you are you only need one to find you among brighter stars to show you your worth you are her caviar.
Often I look for more favor but I am too blind to see my own greed one is enough for the blessing of life I already have what I really need.
You don't have to live from the likes of the virtual mind you only need one whose feedback is thoughtful and kind you only need one who follows the path you've designed who's honest and real and won't leave you behind.
[Chorus]
I still cling to the fleeting moments those time grains in a sandglass, I should seek the rare things that won't go with the first tide dissolve when decades pass but stay by your side.
Are you the one not afraid of throwing herself out off the safe ground? Are you the one who wants to dive deep knowing there's a pearl waiting to be found?
Very nice song with an interesting chord pattern. Miira has such a lovely voice. And yes, this song is a perfect fit for her voice. Everything works so good in this recording - the backing tracks, the chord pattern, Miira's voice - everything.
small thoughtful words can be of great importance to someone and one true fan is more valuable than number of listeners or likes in the social media................AMEN!!! This is beautifully done!! I think Mira is perfect for it. It has sort of a Cranberries vibe. Very pleasant, very melodic, and well arranged/mixed. Excellent job with this one!! Take care. Greg
Cool song! I love where the melody and chords go some unexpected but beautiful turns very nice vocals Super mix, super song enjoyed the video too Kenny
Thanks Kenny for your nice feedback, especially about the vocals and video I'm really glad you found the chord turns beautiful
This is very nice! Miira's voice and way of singing strongly reminds me of the female singer of the cranberries (Dolores). Good and thorough musical arrangement.

Thanks Alan & Di, I'm really glad to hear you liked the song and Miira's voice And mentioning the chord pattern, twice, makes me happy also Hope you to hear more songs from you, too.
Very good song as usual. Very nice melody with very nice chord progression. I especially love the bridge melody. Mira's vocal is very very pleasant. Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Thanks Rob for liking I'm now listening to new Cranberries album, so hopefully I can hear the connection between Dolores and Miira.

Thank you Shigeki for your kind comment I'm pleased you liked the chord progression and the bridge melody - I'm satisfied with it also, because it is bit unusual, but still close to my own style.

With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
