Wow! What a beautiful, haunting song! I agree with Tommy. This one's a keeper! Very well written, and very good arrangement.

I love that Robert. A seriously competent song. A lot of artists would be pretty chuffed to cover that IMHO.

I appreciate the kind comments. Thanks to BIAB, I am resurrecting some old songs that I never got around to recording. This one is over 20 years old.
Once again, I love this program!

That is the beauty of these programs, that is the reason I started to use it back in the early days.
Really nice tune and arrangement; can't wait to hear more, Robert. By the way, the next time could you post the lyrics for the deafies out here - that would be me that I know of.
Cheers - Ian

Hi Robert, I LOVE this. It's soooo soulful! Beautiful vocal and melody. And I like the denial twist. My only criticism - which you can obviously totally ignore  is that I would like it to be longer. With either an added lyrical bridge or an additional new verse, I think it could be even better.

Hi Robert, This is absolutely superb. This is now way up on my list of "Songs I Wish I'd Written". But I also have to agree with Josie above - if you had a lyrical bridge at 1.38 where the instrumental break occurs followed by that last verse - this would be perfect. Having said that, it's not far short now and I can't stop playing it.Even if I do seem to get a little grit in my eye each time!  Great job fella. Martin
Music is what feelings sound like.

Thanks for the comments. I can appreciate the perceived need for a bridge to make the song “complete”, but in this case, I had said all I wanted to say. It's the difference between a sketch and a completed painting. Sometimes I just prefer the sketch.
Thanks for listening.

Very nicely done. Good job. I love the piano part.
Is that piano part totally generated by BIAB?
Is it MIDI or audio?
If you regenerated it(did it over again), would it come out differently.
I am so interested in this program.
I have been searching far and wide for a composition collaborator, but now I think I just found an alternative paradigm.
Really nice song.
My wife loved it too, she told me to say, just listening at the breakfast table, and she is not at all musical.

Thanks Kent.
Yes, the piano is all BIAB, and each time you compose it it plays differently. It was a Real Track, not MIDI. If you are looking for a musical partner, BIAB is the one you need.
Regards,
Bob

Hi, Robert -
I really liked this piece; it's very intimate.
If I had any criticism, it would be that I never heard you breathe once in the piece. I would leave in a few breath inhalations, because that (at least for me) makes the song that much more real.
But, great song!

Thanks John. The reason for the lack of breath sounds is that I am using a very hot, sensitive mic (Studio Projects T3 Tube), so I always gate my vocal tracks to eliminate any extraneous noise. My recording space is less than ideal, and this mic will pick up a dog barking two blocks away.
