I like this Paddy, but I hope it isn't an autobiographical song! It's kind of a bummer!

The guitars mixed with the fiddle make a nice combination, especially for your voice... and I like your chord progression. The backup vocals interspersed here and there were a nice touch too!

It was a fun listen, and it left me feeling a little introspective... wondering if my life's decisions had the effect of making it harder for old friends to remain friends. Interesting song.

Like Pat it certainly will make one a bit introspective. Thought provoking indeed.

Your vocal, the rhythm groove and the write all work together well. Nice mix too.

We enjoyed the spin!

As others have said, very heavy. But very well done! The steady beat and instrumentation is perfect for the song. The chord changes and melody work well with the lyrics, and your vocal is full of conviction. Great job Paddy!! Take care. Greg

Definitely a cool write!
Is there anything else but introspective songs? :-) (it's virtually the only thing I write myself).
In my opinion, lyrics can never be too heavy....
Another job very well done Paddy!

Nice, Paddy.

Well put together and well mixed. A good rhythm to the production (and the song). You ought to post the lyrics to these...

Enjoyed it.

Hi Pat,

Autobiographical, Nope, I am too gregarious and “loving’ to be ever trapped in that zone He, He, I wrote that song around some resent ‘high flyers’ around here, that shot straight up, then straight down mainly using other people’s money that they lost.
Thanks for the comments on the song arrangements, I always value your depth of analysis’ it is not lost on me.

Thank you all for your kind comments, I see now that maybe I could, should, ? add a small break (riff) at 1:37 I will see if it’s possible with a re mix.

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."
