Started this song back in 50/90 2013, but I ran out of steam so I finished writing and recording it for FAWM 2014. Probably still need to do some cleanup (as always!). I used Floyd jane's handclaps real drum user track -- quite nice!

Shout It Out
© Emmrich 2014

(verse)
She wears a yellow dress
she smiles like the sun
and when you think you've
figured her out
she surprises you again
with the little things she does

(chorus)
and I've got to shout
there's no hiding inside
she makes life fun
and I haven't shouted out
for a long, long time

(verse)
She picks up the leaves
been scattered by the breeze
red and green and gold and brown
she throws them in the wind
and spreads her radiating grin

(chorus again)

Gotta shout it out
shout it out
Gotta shout it out
shout it out

(verse)
now that I've been exposed
to her charms and her ways
I never wanna go back
to those gray days

(chorus again)

Gotta shout it out
shout it out
Gotta shout it out
shout it out

(outro)
and I haven't shouted out
for a long, long time

That one just gets more and more catchy as it goes along.

Enjoyable. Nice use of the claps!

Nice. And it sticks with you. Listened, went and had a cup of joe, came back to the mac and still had it on my mind. Cool. And, yup, the claps sit nicely. Glad you revived this one!

Kevin,

Catchy song with a very cool vocal and arrangement. One thing you might consider is to put it more in the "indie" sound pocket so it's a wee bit drier on the instruments with more raw edge. To me, it's a tad smooth sounding for the style. Not a criticism in any way - only a consideration or not...<grin>

I'm loving it here.


Josie

Hello Kevin,

This is a very cozy song.
In the beginning of the song it sounds a little bit like some of the real tracks are not completely in sync with each other?
Anyways, very well done and very nice vocals!

And now we are going to search for Floyd's handclaps here on this site.

Regards,

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."
