Hi Paddy,
nice song. No matter if you use Midi or not as long as it sounds good. And this sounds good.
Enjoyable listen.
I'd like to see the lyrics printed.

It is true that sometimes MIDI tracks have a freshness and tightness that simply works in a song.
This is another very fine contribution to the forum.
Good composition, lyrics and vocals.

Nice one, Paddy.
Had a good "Gordon Lightfoot feel" to it.
Nice job on this - your vocal is confident.
Enjoyed it.

Enjoyed that nice and catchy chorus. Agree with Floyd a bit of Gordon Lightfoot there.

We're also down with the Lightfoot feel.
Very engaging with a clean airy mix.
Enjoyed it!

Paddy, I enjoyed it. Your vocal sounds very good on this one. Some of the midi super tracks sound better than the real tracks. Whatever gets the job done. Tom

© Broken Memories
Hey mister she said put that whisky bottle down come and dance with me
I can see it on your lonesome face // your down that road of broken memories
I have been there so many times myself // I know the forest from the trees
So I will teach you every step I know// to the dance of broken memories
She said I once danced with princess and kings // from London Paris to Rome
Till I could see that really wasn’t me // I had left all the gold back at home
I had a good man a man of the soil // he could not see the gypsy in me
So I left to dance on my own // and him with broken memories
People ask why I dance alone with tears in my eyes
But I dance with the ghosts of the past // and I dance to broken lullabies
So mister put that whisky bottle down come and dances with me
I will teach you every step I know to the dance of broken memories
I will teach you every step I know to the dance of broken memories
Thanks for all the encouraging comments. I was told it good practice to add the lyrics if you can. I can see the value of that, hence the above

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
