A healing spell-song for sick little ones everywhere

https://soundcloud.com/japokeapeg/sleep-tonight-little-one-heal-tonight

Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)

Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

Your laughter and smiles and goo goos
Take away all the world's blues
Spending our day making christmas pud
We got covered but the spoon tasted good
Calm days, warm and sunny
With smiles as sweet as honey
Then black clouds storms and rain
You hardly showed your pain

Chorus Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
The spell has been woven by granny and mum
Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

Tears in my eyes watching you play on your swing
You say “don’t cry mummy, there are worse things”
Telling silly jokes to make us laugh
Because you didn’t want to see us so sad

Chorus Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
The spell has been woven by granny and mum
Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

M8 In your dreams you’ll be running, running through the trees.
Playing on the beach and swimming, swimming in the sea.
But pretty soon it’ll be real, the sun upon your skin.
Then you’ll find yourself dancing with kings.
Then you’ll find yourself dancing with kings.

Chorus Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
The spell has been cast by granny and mum
Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

A warm and gently humorous song; a lullaby with pop touches.
I enjoyed the bits of British-sounding detail ( a Beatlesque touch).
Well done.

Nice write, good subject.
I was a little overwhelmed with the heavy nature of the vocals (perhaps some EQ is in order) but, I think you've got a winner here.

As parents and guardians, people do everything they can to take care of the children in their care and make sure they're not hurting, but so much healing comes to parents and guardians just from being around kids and their caring hearts. This was a lovely song and a nice lullaby, thanks for taking the time to share!


Cheers,

I couldn't have said this any better. This is a very lovely lullaby. Super vocal, backing tracks, and mix.

Two thumbs up.

Hi,

Nice song - melody, lyrics and well mixed.

Vocals - as mentioned above - they are very lower mid and bass heavy and hence boomy. Perhaps roll off the bass on all vocals (lead and harmony) starting at 125Hz.

Best Regards
Nigel

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."
