Hi, all This song has been co-written with David Cuny. There would be so much things to say about D-Day. Because I'm french, I only will say "Thank you, Boys!" https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/on-june-6-forty-four-with-david-cunyOn june 6, forty four You landed on this sand Stormed the beach at Omaha With a grease gun in your hand Under heavy german fire Fought to make it up the shore Up into the breach And to the killing floor Bodies lying on the ground Drowned soldiers in cold water Though death was all around You survived the slaughter So many friends have fallen So many lives were lost Still, you had a job to do No matter what the cost Today in Normandy You weep for the losses Of your brothers resting deep Under these white stone crosses And though eighty years have passed Since they have paid the price We always will remember And thank them for their sacrifice RD Americana Brushes and Shaker (Multi) RD BluesRockFunky16ths^6 RT 3119 Acoustic Bass RT 3703 Acoustic Guitar RT 3700 Solo Acoustic Guitar RT 1765 Fingerpicking Guitar RT 3245 Electric Guitar RT 3247 Solo Electric Guitar Synthesizer v: Natalie

Bonjour Christian
Ta chanson me rappelle un jour ou je suis allé au cimetière d'Omaha. Il devait y avoir la relève de la garde de l'armée américaine et un Gi jouez de la trompette, il y avait toutes ses tombes blanches avec l'âge des gars dessus et la plage en contrebas. Ca te prend aux tripes et tu pense à tout ces jeunes, mort sur la plage. Comme les vieux de 14 tu te dis: plus jamais ça mais il y a toujours un gros con pour remettre le couvert. Ca fait pitié. Merci pour eux , merci pour nous.
Amicalement
Laurent

Pretty cool song about an important historical event in your country, nicely narrated by Natalie.
I think you guys did a really good job. The song says "I am French" without being too "Chanson".
Love it!

Christian and David,
I love this, the lyrics are a wonderful tribute to those that fell in that operation.
And to me, your "singer" has that small French Cafe sound.
Well done and great job.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Very cool composition. Natalie does a nice job, and the band sounds just right. The electric guitar solo was a brave choice, but sounds perfect to me. The sanctity of Normandy is still understood by many over here. Nice to hear this tune!

Christian and David,
An outstanding tribute to those whom perished on that most important day of the war.
Everything is perfect.
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

Thank you all,
It was important to me to create a song about this so special day.
David's linguistic help was very valuable to me.

LOVE IT! Very good song, Chris and David. Well-written and the lyrics are so good. Natalie is becoming one of my favorite singers ---surely the top choice of synths. My wife and I were in Normandy for the 70th anniversary.

Fantastic song you two. "Since they have paid the price We always will remember And thank them for their sacrifice" That ought to be on a bumper sticker to help more folks remember.

Thanks Brad,
This song is my way of paying tribute to all those young Americans who risked their lives to free us. Many lost their lives there! We are so indebted to them...

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."
