The songs of the mockingbirds carry
Through the sweet gum and the pines
As the sun brings another Georgia morning
And the heat of the summer time

When I was young and foolish
And anxious for this war
Left my loved ones safely far behind
But they ain’t safe no more

We’ll die trying to stop them
From taking everything
Fires in the distance
So we know the Devil’s near
Judgement Day is on us now
General Sherman’s here

Our regiment was shattered
And I tried to walk away
But this rich man’s war has followed me
And left me with no say

They came south from Chattanooga
One hundred thousand strong
John Bell Hood can’t hold em back
Not for very long

We’ll die trying to stop them
From taking everything
Seen the fires in the distance
So we know the Devil’s near
Judgement Day is on us now
General Sherman’s here
A bloody day of reckoning
General Sherman’s here

Really cool Kenny!! You have such a great style, musically and lyrically. This song brings home the suffering and destruction of war. I thought it was really interesting the way you changed the chords on the second time through-kind of unresolved emotion. Great stuff! Take care. Greg

Kenny, nice image filled write, vocal and production. I like that
held bass -- something I did every now and then during my
bluegrass years.

It is a very well done story song that has it all. Vivid imagery,
sparse but effective backing tracks and a heartfelt vocal.

We like it!

Thanks Video Track, I appreciate the kind words always. I'm so glad that you commented, I was afraid that my little song with the odd title was gonna fall off page one without being noticed! and then what? thank goodness, the international crew came to my rescue, two Australians and a German. Thanks so much gentlemen, my faith is restored.

Hey Bud and Janice,
You might have noticed that the song was written in 2012, I dug it out and kinda thought of you Bud and my Georgia roots, if you remember we touched on it briefly after I posted Macon Lights that I mentioned that my Dad was from there and I was born there and lived in GA. until my teens. I've always been kind of a history buff and this idea of what happened just a couple of generations before mine right here to civilians authorized by the American government to break the backbone of the South just felt very natural for me to write about. So, I dusted off an old piano arrangement and gave it a new better set of clothes to wear. I was very looking forward to your comments and I am not disappointed. If you guys ever come up to PA, would love to take you on Gettysburg tour.
Kenny

Kenny, I agree with what Greg said...l!m typing on a phone, so it's a bit hard....

Excellent write, just the right production. Love the vocal...

Absolutely outstanding Kenny! One of your best imo. The lyrics are super, your voice and the arrangement are terrific. One of the best civil war songs I've heard.

Love it!

Nice work.

The minor chords fit the mood of the song.

The section at 2:30 with the strange chords, I think, doesn't fit well. I see some other folks thought it was good...I disagree. I'd look at that section and figure out how to impart the emotion in a better way that stays more "in tune" with the song.

All in all, a good tune.

Thanks Herb,
I do appreciate your critical engineer/producer type ear and that you listen closely and take the time to point out what you find less than good. The song was written a few years ago on piano with a slightly different arrangement and the section you're referring to is a bridge that stood out with a different rhythmic feel and sounded just fine in the original.
I really liked this new version with BIAB but struggled with what to do with this section, it's just Dm to G no strange chords. I tried dropping instruments out and several other things, maybe my background vocals clutter it too much. I love the melody line of this section also, so I wouldn't change it by much. Please understand, I appreciate your input and comments as much as others and there is no anger from me, I want to do better, I want to make better songs, so keep bringing it and thanks for listening.

Hi Kenny,

I like the song... funny how until Sherman is mentioned, most of what is said could apply to any war. In fact, I presumed it was a VietNam era war song until you made it clear to the contrary.

I tend to agree with Herb about that one section... not in terms of "right" or "wrong", because I feel like the artist gets to make his own rules as part of the creative rite of passage. I only mention it at all because you had successfully built a mood and sucked me into the magic spell of it, but that passage changed the mood for me. Again, not saying its right or wrong, just relating how that affected my listening experience. The artist is free to make the rules, and the listener is free to decide whether it appeals to his sensibilities.

anyway, that was a very small observation about a very big song!

Beyond the song, I like your style of presentation... I find it to be very natural and believable. You have a great voice for the songs you write, and your lyrics are interesting.

On a different note, where are you in Pennsylvania? I'm originally from there...

I agree.

What I did really like was your vocal, lyrics and backing tracks. Everything is perfectly clear and that is what a good mix is all about.

We've visited battlefields from Vicksburg to Petersburg but have not been to Gettysburg. I know it is a powerful experience. Hope we can make it up that way some time and take you up on the tour.

Definitively a good song ! The bluegrass mandolin fit very well with this rather slow tempo and the voice installs a true atmosphere.

Like Guitarhacker, I noticed this odd harmony at 2:34 and 2:45. But you have explained that yet and I respect your opinion cause it remains a very efficient achievement.

Cheers

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."

Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!

The User Showcase Forum is an excellent place to share your Band-in-a-Box® songs and listen to songs other program users are creating!

There are other places you can listen to these songs too! Visit our User Showcase page to sort by genre, artist (forum name), song title, and date - each listing will direct you to the forum post for that song.

If you'd rather listen to these songs in one place, head to our Band-in-a-Box® Radio, where you'll have the option to select the genre playlist for your listening pleasure. This page has SoundCloud built in, so it won't redirect you. We've also added the link to the Artists SoundCloud page here, and a link to their forum post.

We hope you find some inspiration from this amazing collection of User Showcase Songs!
