Hi, all my friends ! I am afraid I am falling in love again ! My girlfriend from the past (it was over 50 years since we broke up and I have not seen her ever since) was visiting me on thursday and I had made a very good dinner for her and for my quartet friends. Me and my quartet sang quite a few songs during the evening and when we were left alone we continued to talk about everything we had missed during those 50 years. It was a superb evening that I will remember for the rest of my life and it is with great sadness I have to bide her farewell today as she is going back to Norway where she works and lives and where her husband and family are ! The evening was magic as we thrived so well in the company of each other. I am going to miss her very much, but hopefully she´ll show up again maybe next year ? I had to write her this tune " You Came To Me" with words straight from my heart ! You can surely feel my double pain having lost my dear wife and not being allowed to show my love for my dear old girlfriend also ! At the same time I must confess I have been blessed to have had such wonderful women in my life ! I have felt and still feel privileged ! The link: http://app.box.com/s/jqi9qw5fxadnwoda0wgtRecorded with Mixcraft 6 on my laptop Vocal recorded thru zoom H4n Style: CTRWZPS Slow Country Waltz w Pedal (85RS) Instruments: Bass: 1121 Piano: 1126 Drums: RD Nash Classic Guitar: 824 Strumming Strings: 822 Fingerpicking Soloist: 26 AC Guitar Lyrics: YOU CAME TO ME (by Dani) You came to me, my dear old friend, I fell again I fell for you, I always do, I fought in vain and it´s true it´s true that I kept lovin´you all of these years I just loved you too To you my friend, I sing this song If only I, could go beside you, all along down your way hoping you´ll be there to stay and never to go away Darling when, you came to me you opened my eyes, again to see just how wonderful,the world can be when you do, allow, yourself to be free You lit the flame, I thought had died, so deep inside and so my friend, my love for you, I cannot hide anymore day by day, I love you more a feeling I can´t ignore it´s just like before © Dani Lindroos 2014 This song is dedicated to my good old girlfriend Babben!

Excellent job Dani. Vocals were eloquent and I loved how you held the vocal on the word 'true' around the .28 second mark.

Charlie

Really beautiful!! I love what comes through musically and lyrically-innocence, purity, and enthusiasm of young love. Really love the music too. Burt Bacharach would be envious! This may be my favorite of yours so far. Take care. Greg

Sweet song Dani, straight from the heart. Like the way you held true too. Nice sounding mix.
Now the backstory, I don't know whether to feel happy for you or sad.....I guess it's a mixed bag.

Thank you so much for your most kind comments ! Yes, it is exactly as you say, it is a bit bittersweet, as I did not in any case want to mix up here present marriage ! It seemed to us both, though, that there are still very deep feelings between us !:))

Dear Jo !:))
I feel humbled by your most kind and warm words ! You are so right, during this evening we both traveled back 50 years in time, we became young again, we sat till three and held each others hands and we found ourselves so incredibly comfortable in each others company that it was exactly as if it was yesterday we had parted !!
Cheers Dani

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."
