The Songs Of Angels

©2016 Robert Randall Burke


I heard the Songs Of Angels
On the wings of night
A star appeared above me
And bathed the world in light
For there within a manger
I saw an awesome sight
For the King of Kings was born tonight.

I heard the songs of angels
Over Bethlehem
Songs of peace on earth they sang
And goodwill to all men
A promise for the keeping
A promise for the light
For the King of Kings was born tonight.

They sang
Emmanuel
He is with us all
Emmanuel
I heard the angels call.

I heard the Songs Of Angels
On the wings of night
A star appeared above me
And bathed the world in light
For there within a manger
I saw an awesome sight
For the King of Kings was born tonight.

Bob,

Through the years I have heard a number of newly penned Christmas songs (who wouldn't want to have a good Christmas cut?!). Very few are worthy. Most, not even close.

THIS is THE best I've ever heard. Perhaps the only "traditional" Christmas song I've heard that "works". This should be on a dozen new Christmas records. It sounds like a "classic" on first listen.

Hope you've got someone pitching this. You could live the rest of your life on the sheet music sales alone.

My thoughts exactly.... and I'd add that you have all the right skills, Bob... The right mix of time in front of audiences to know what works... the years of instrumental practice and application, and many years of experience with sequencing MIDI to get all those awesome orchestral sounds... you are the real deal! A true pro in every way!

Hi Bob.

I always like your songs and especially the way you put your heart and soul into the vocals.

This is an exceptionally good track, despite it's strange release date!

Tommy,


Thanks for the listen and comments. Funny thing - the first publisher I pitched this to (who specializes in Christmas music, by the way) said he really liked it, but it was "too religious" for him to publish.


"Too 'religious'"?????? It's a CHRISTMAS SONG, OK? grin

floyd has already been quoted by Pat....but he said it so well. It is stunning. This is a genre that had it not been your song I likely would not have listened to due to the incredible amount of bland material put out seasonally. There's something for everybody here. Like floyd said "it works." I would be exceptionally proud of this were it mine.

Apparently that publisher doesn't specialize in CHRISTmas music at all, but in HOLIDAY music.

Really glad someone brought this one back!! Beautifully written and sung!! The best Christmas songs aren't always written at Xmas. I heard The Christmas Song was written in July. This is another gem that came out of season. Great one Bob!! Take care. Greg

Bob,

I missed this first time around. I'm really glad that it's resurfaced. You've done a terrific job with this one. Like other before me have said... this is songwriting quality plus! It deserves to be out there on the world stage.

Merry Christmas to you and Penny.

Wow! This sounds like it should be on the radio for others to enjoy. It sounds instantly classic!

To me, it's one of the songs that if you were watching a Christmas movie and this came on at one of "those" moments, I would get choked up. I think it's that cool!

One last thing, the addition of the voice/pad (whatever it is) at 50 seconds was atmospherically perfect! I loved that!

Thanks for sharing this with us!

I saw J&B's post from 5 years back saying "Sorry to be so late on this..."

They've got nothing on me. wink

Glad the Christmas Bump brought it 'round for me to hear! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Beautiful... Well done. Vocals is outstanding, but could benefit from a sibilance de-esser in a few spots... I really enjoyed this.

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!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

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."
