Dani, you could sing the PG Music BIAB users manual and make it sound like a heartfelt love song.
Good job, I enjoyed this a lot.

Hi Dani,
Wow! 22 years ago you were also writing love songs. That's a lot of practice!!! No wonder your work is always a pleasure to listen to.
All the best,

Very pretty!! I could imagine the Stylistics singing this. Really beautiful ballad-cool lyrics and some really interesting musical changes. Great stuff, as usual!! Take care. Greg

"and now my life is like a shadow
fadin, fadin´"
Great line! Greg said it so well above for the whole song. And like Noel said 23 years is quite a run for writing songs like this....I now understand why you are so dang good at it. Nice production in all aspects and the intimate vocal works so well.

Hi Dani,
+1 to what's said above.
I like the arrangement of the original. Especially the strings and harmonies. But you made some changes to the chords which I prefer in the newer version.
Again an enjoyable listen.

Hello, Noel !:))
You are just too kind
with this grey haired
ol´fella !:))
I do thank you so much for
your most kind words !:))
Yes, I did write some love
songs way back then and
you have probably already heard
"My Wife" from 1992 in the original version,
but I started to write love
songs in earnest when I
became a pensioner and was able
to devote more time to my hobbies !
Cheers
Dani

Hi, Alyn !:))
You are also way too kind with
me, but I do appreciate your
more than kind words truly much !:))
I must admit that I do not feel
like a love song expert but taking
my recent history in view it has been
difficult for me to write anything
else than love songs ! Firstly it
was to my dear wife and then to
my old girlfriend, wonderful women
both !
Cheers
Dani

Hi, Guenter !:))
No wonder you liked the
arrangement of the original
better as it was produced
with real musicians playing
real strings ! I think the
strings are a point that could
be enhanced in later versions !:))
Thank you Guenter so much for
your most kind words !:))
Cheers
Dani

"it's the song of you that I recall when you're gone" - what a pretty line - especially for us songwriters.
Good mix. Can't think of a nicer way to mellow out than with a smooth Dani love song.

"it´s the song of you
that I recall when you´re gone"
I see that Josie pick up on that, too...
Terrific line!
Something a little Barry-White like to this one...

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."
