Excellent interpretation.
Very interesting arrangement and selection of instruments. Janice sounds as though she is pouring her heart out.
Thank you! I felt like she did also. Bud Excellent all round as usual.
Lovely lyrics beautifully interpenetrated.
Top marks to all on this one.
Rob

Hi Janice, Bud and Lawrence, I nearly missed this. Glad I didn't. With a song by Lawrence and a vocal by Janice, I knew it would be great. And IT WAS!! Really nicely done. I love the longing and heartbreak in the lyrics, and Janice delivers beautifully. Arrangement and mix are great. Enjoyed very much!! Another great one in the wave of collabs. Guenter

Beautiful. Every aspect.
The write. Beautiful.
The arrangement and instrumentation and mix. Beautiful.
Vocal (do I need to say it?) - Beautiful.
The video is just what a lyric video ought to be. Show the lyric to the song without getting in the way of hearing the music. A single picture is all you need - any more would take your attention from the write, the music, the singing - the song.
Great combination.
Beautiful.
floyd Thank you floyd. Your positive comments go a LONG ways toward offering us some validation of what we are doing. We do appreciate it. J&B Janice, Bud and Lawrence.
This is just terrific. Terrific write, terrific vocals and terrific production. Loved it.
Me too. Plus #1 from me. Great arrangement and production. Charlie Thanks Charlie! J&B

J & B & L, A terrific project. Great mix and a great write. A vocal that is among your best. This is pro quality from every angle. Nothing more than downright excellent. Tom Thank you Tom. Considering the quality of your work we are even more appreciative! J&B Nice presentation from start to finish! I love the photo of Janice! Even when she doesn't smile with her mouth, she smiles with her eyes! That's the perfect cover for her next album... (hint hint)
aside: JUMPSTART can provide crowd funding to cover studio costs for talented artists who don't have deep pockets. Just sayin'.
Janice could sing the phone book and it would melt my heart... but when she teams up with a song writer of Lawrence's ability, it really sparkles! Every verse had a clever line... my favorite being " I drank to happiness, then I drank to excess..." that's downright inspired!
I'd never seen the format you used for the video.. with a photo on the right accompanied by a verse at a time on the left, presented in a matching font! Now that was artsy!
And I also really like the idea of reinterpreting the songs of others on the forum. It brings a newness to a song when somebody else presents it in a different style.
What can I say? Lawrence is one of my very favorite forum song writers, Bud always has he magic production touch and Janice is one of my favorite singers... that was a total pleasure! Thanks to everyone involved!
Pat that is all very kind of you. And yes her eyes do indeed smile! Lawrence certainly wrote a good one and we are really glad that we had this chance to record it. Singing the phonebook? Hmmmmm now that might be just the ticket for my songwriting frustrations. We appreciate you! J&B

Hi folks, I cleaned up the video a bit via changing some font sizes, etc. Thanks fj for the great feedback on the vid. So, here's a link to the new vid since youtube doesn't allow replacing files. Missing You J&B

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!

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."
