Another Anniversary song for the best wife in the world. https://90dbband.bandcamp.com/track/first-danceFirst Dance ©2014 Robert Randall Burke If I could If you would Just have this one dance with me We could be You would see Just how good One dance can be. I think I've been waiting for you For all of my life So do me the honor Of the first dance with my wife. I hate to presume But you lit up the room With your smile And I've been so lonely and sad For such a long while. I know I've been waiting for you All of my life Please do me the honor Of the first dance with my wife. I got up the courage To ask you to dance Could this be the start Of the greatest romance? Sometimes you just have to Leave it to chance And just dance. If I could If you would Just have this one dance with me We could be You would see Just how good One dance can be.

Well you've just provided me with a special song to play for my wife on our upcoming wedding anniversary on valentine's day...
The story really fits us well. Dancing is very much a part of her social personality. She's always danced. Me, not so much.
The hardest thing now is to not get impatient. It will be difficult for me to not play it for her until February...
Really enjoyed the song. It's another good one in your arsenal.

Awww Shucks!
How good is that!
Before the song started I was already tapping 1,2,3...2.2.3
Really great lyrics Bob, the style and instruments are perfect.
Your wife is a very lucky woman. (I'll bet she probably tells you you're a very lucky man)
In a word: Nice

This is terrific! It has 'classic' and 'standard' written all over it.
'I hate to presume But you lit up the room'
Love that!
Well done, Sir:)

Hi Bob,
A superb creation... I find it impossible to listen to music like this and not feel like dancing. Everything about this words, music, singing, production is terrific.

What a wonderful, wonderful song!! I could see this at a very sentimental part of a film with still images (you might even want to make a slide show-perfect for this song). As Scott said, it has a very classic feel. I could imagine BJ Thomas singing it. Very, very nice Bob!! Take care. Greg

Hi, Bob !
What a lovely tune ! I loved everything about it ! I cannot challenge you regarding the best wife as my wife is nnot with us anymore, but the most important thing is that you both love each other resulting in such a wonderful song !
There´s nothing that beats one´s own emotions in composing and songwriting !
May you both have a most wonderful time for now and for the future !
Cheers Dani

Hi Bob.
What a super song.
As ever, beautifully sung with lots of emotion and I love the way you left introducing the harmonies until the very end - clever piece of arranging.
This sounds like film music to me - it generates images as I listen to it.
Congrats to you both on the anniversary.
ROG

Nice song. I heard a classic Merle Haggard vibe in there in several places. It also has a sort of Willie Nelson songwriting vibe as well. Seashores of old Mexico kept coming to mind.
Loved the song.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

"Marriage is the most natural state of man, and... the state in which you will find solid happiness." Ben Franklin
Absolutely begs a video to complement the wonderful imagery. We love the write and vocal delivery. It has heartfelt and sincerity all over it w/o a hint of being overwrought.
The production is perfect for the song and as others have mentioned it would be perfect in film.
Exceptional!
J&B

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."
