Aching for the Secret

I am Aching, for the secret to your heart.
Aching, don’t know where to start
See me aching, just a broken man
Aching so much no one can understand.

Don’t know what to say, you affect that way
Cain’t see myself with no one else,
don’t wanna live without you for another day.
Aching, till you hear me say
Ain’t aching for no one but you
Just a aching today.

I am Aching, for the key to your soul.
Aching, now it’s taken it’s toll.
You’d stop my aching, with a single glance
till then I’ll be aching for you, like I’m in a trance.

Don’t know what to say, you affect that way
Cain’t see myself with no one else,
don’t wanna live without you for another day.
Aching, until you hear me say.
Ain’t aching for no one but you,
yes I’m aching today.


Don’t know what to say, you affect that way
Cain’t see myself with no one else,
don’t wanna live without you for another day.
Aching until you hear me say
Ain’t aching for no one but you
Just a aching today.

Excellent! A cross betwee Santananana and outright Blues.
Loved that guitar and great lyrics.
I met a girl like that once - 54 years ago. I'm still hanging around her. LMAO!

What a tune! Right from the first few moments, I knew I'd like this. Delightfully catchy with some awesome progressions, and a top notch mix. It sounds really professional. Loved the guitar work here as well.

A solid write all around - thanks for sharing smile

The mood of the melody complements the mood of the lyrics--the aching, the angst is palpable in the music and the distinct character of the vocal.

It's a loud mix Tommy. I think, but can't be sure, that there's some mild to bad clipping on the louder sections of the vocal.
The mix is pretty tidy and the parts are well stitched together.
Is the solo guitar you?
Cool stuff.


Cheers

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
