Hi, friends !

I wrote this tune a long time ago
but only now when I´ve got the
Daniettes backing up my vocals
have I been able to get it done !:))

It is a jazzy tune with a small solo
played on my fender !:))

Written in BIAB, mixed with Mixcraft 8,
compression and reverb used sparsely

The Style used is _SJCOOLG.STY (Smooth Jazz Cool Swsw 16)
and the instros are:

Bass:902, Piano:1995,Drums: Realdrums Smoot Jazz Cool,
Guitar 1: 1228, Daniettes: 3063 Vocal AAhs

Here are the links:

http://app.box.com/s/bzme9zm2tejhw4vs01s2hhhgbxhhkhbz

...and here are the lyrics:

It´s Only Just A Dream (Words & Music by Norman Wibe)

When day turns into night, babe
and you´re not here beside me, dear
I´ll dream that I can feel you there
beneath my quilt, so light
I can hear your breathin´,almost quitely
it lessens my anxiety

´cause I know you, I feel your scent so sweet
and I love you, just more by every beat,
beat of my heart, that is the part
that is struck by Love´s own dart. Oh, babe !!!

I´ll turn around t´wards you, babe
I wanna hug you so sweetly dear
I wanna feel you close and near
and that is what I´ll do
caressin´ you so quitely, gently,
lovin´ you so dearly, dear

cause I know you, I feel your scent so sweet
and I love you, just more by every beat,
beat of my heart, that is the part
that is struck by Love´s own dart. Oh, babe !!!

Solo

You kiss me cutely in my sleep, bahe
I can feel the moist right on my lip
I can touch your tongue with my own tip
and I know I´m in it deep
you turn me on, my darlin, spiritually
though it´s only just virtually

cause I know you, I feel your scent so sweet
and I love you, just more by every beat,
beat of my heart, that is the part
that is struck by Love´s own dart. Oh, babe !!!

It´s only just a dream
You know I´m in it deep
You know I´m deep in sleep
It´s only just a dream
You know I´m in it deep
You know I´m deep in sleep,
sleep

Cheers
Dani

Dani, this is one great song with a very nice guitar lead thrown into the mix.

Two thumbs up.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.

Yes! That jazz sound is very nice with the smooth vocal.

And a swing feel is ALWAYS good for us.

"It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!"

Great vocal and a fine mix too.

Enjoyed it!

Really nice job on this smile The groove is fantastic, and your vocals compliment the jazzy vibes perfectly. Plus - as someone else mentioned, the chords selection here is very unique. The whole experience is just really nice on the ears.

Great work and thanks for sharing!

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.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

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."
