Very well done, jannesan I love how gentle and delicate this tune is. I can just close my eyes and get lost in the music. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for me, and the lyricism here helps solidify that sensation. Great work - thanks for sharing! Thanks Deryk for your very kind words Really nice to hear that I've managed to evoke nostalgia with my song Janne

Janne, There is such beautiful emotional and moving imagery in this song. The arrangement fits the mood so well. I thought it was great.

Very pretty song Janne!! The lyrics are very poetic. I really like your vocal for this style. You always have really cool chord changes in your songs (just heard another about an hour ago)! Very much enjoyed this!! Take care. Greg

Jannesan..what I really liked about this is the length of your lyric...I struggle to get enough words to make AABA, but you continued with expanded thoughts and images on your topic. I guess your winters are REALLY long and you think about these gentle breezes alot during the cold months!
Also, it seems like your song construction is somewhat unorthodox--maybe additional bars beyond the normal 4 or 8--it is something that captures your ear, so that you think "oh, this chorus isn't over quite yet--I need to continue to listen". And then you are rewarded by a nice, smooth conclusion of that part.
Finally, I think that your simple orchestration is perfect for this type of narrative: the singer is sitting alone, maybe looking out the window, waiting for the season to break--it's a quiet moment, and the arrangement matches it.
You have given me a lot of composition ideas to think about---when is the week that it is warm in Finland, I might want to visit!! Thanks for your enjoyable analysis of my song Lyrics just pour out of me, more than enough of verses for a song so I have to leave out some parts. Recently winters have been quite mild here, and in average also this winter, but February was very cold and March seems to be snowy and cold also, so I'm still waiting for the breeze I probably have got some subconscious inspiration for this kind of acoustic folk song from a band called Shoormal (from Shetland), their song Between Weathers tells about how winter won't let go. I'm glad you noticed my unorthodox song structure, I don't follow rules, I just do what feels good to my ear Some 'fans' of mine have said the same, that my song require several times to listen to. Welcome to Finland, although it is difficult to say what is going to be the warm week this year Janne

Well Janne, you seem to do quite good on the your own! Still this has sort of a different sound from the kind of songs we did for you. But we are pleasantly surprised! Very well done. Rob Thanks Rob for your positive words, I'm glad I've managed surprise you Your vocals and your feedback has been an important step on my 'career'. When a right song comes, too difficult for my vocal range, I might ask for your vocals once more Janne

Janne, There is such beautiful emotional and moving imagery in this song. The arrangement fits the mood so well. I thought it was great. it would be hard to better express what Josie said. We'll only add that the soundstage sounded full and lush on our monitors. Kudos! J&B

Very nice melody and chord progression! I think that this song is very well expressing the heart that waits for springs all the time. Really good song! Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi
Thanks Shigeki Adachi, I'm glad you felt the spirit of waiting for the spring in my song And thanks for mentioning the chord progression, it really works well with the acoustic guitar RT here, no noticeable issues. I think Roddy Frame's music and guitar playing is one of my inspiration here. Janne

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."
