This tune may resonate with some who have had a loved my go missing for some years.
Its totally a fictional write.
Used harmonies through out, not sure if it overpowers the tune.
Anyway you be the judge.
All comments welcome.

Why Don't You Come Home

Why don't you come home where your well know and you belong.
The seasons been rough the season been long.

Why don't you come where your kin is waiting or you with their arm open wide.
Why don't you come home its cold out side we'll welcome you home.

......................................................................................................
Youve been gone such a very long time and its great to have you here.
We have your picture on the wall but faded through the years.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We waited so long for you, thought we'd never see this day.
So full of anticipation through clouds of silver and grey.
The rel be a crowd of smiley faces and be no lack of tears.
Why dont you come home its cold out side we'll welcome you home.

Rob,

Very cool song. Good mix and vocals. I could almost hear a hint of the Kingston Trio in this one. Great job.

Rob,

You've sure pulled out a few dozen stops in writing and creating this one. It's a credit to you! I really enjoyed listening.... nice and catchy rhythm and very memorable melody. Without any hesitation at all, it's two thumbs up from me!

All the best,
Noel

Every part of this is a winner Rob

The harmonies have given the delivery depth and dimension.

Sensational effort.

Wicked tune, Rob smile It reminds me of Beach Boys, which in my books is never a bad thing! This one really resonates with me.

Great harmonies, great arrangement, and a great mix. Thanks so much for sharing!

Kingston Trio, Beach Boys...dunno. We're hearing a mellow Elvis swing. And we like that!

The harmonies sound in the pocket and work for us.

As Tom said it is "catchy and memorable."

Nice one Rob!

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."
