This is a song collaboration with Wien Sam.
** Sam - your mail box is full and you obviously should hear the finished product first, but I'm going to publish and be damned as they say, as I think the song sounds pretty good now, and hope you don't mind! Sorry it took so long to put it all together! **
A few months ago I posted an earlier version which wasn't up to my usual standard (well, I wasn't well... ) but I think I've got it nailed now. Sam wrote the lyrics and I did all the music. I think it all hangs together a lot better now, anyway, here it is for better or for worse!

I'll have to listen again thru the good speaks--I only heard it through my GF's little Dell speakers. Sounds solid, clean, and fully professional from here. Nice work.

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.

Sounds good here too. Nice tune, nice lyrics, nice melody and well recorded. Can't ask for better than that.

Too bad some of these tunes like this don't get on the radio rather than some of the crap that is on now. Especially the ones who put out a few good tunes then ride on their good name and put out garbage.

Just listened again in the studio. I'm blown away by the production. The groove is reminescent of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams", one of my all-time favorite rock mixes, tinged with the shades of Jeff Beck and Mark Knopfler. Compared with the FM greatest hits disc in my player it seems like it could use more electric bass, but that's a quibble. I wish I could get the clarity in my mixes that I hear here. (Love the Wired-era tremolo on the piano at the end, too.)

The lyrics are elevated by the music. Any band should be proud of a piece produced this well.

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."
