"She was all about the town" < cool line.
"Walking sharply west and north
Toward the Macys on 34th" <<<<< love that rhyme! and those lines...
"She was packing up boxes
And getting back on the horse" <<< nice.
Nice grouping of instrument. Original. Works well with the lyric and seems so right for it... great mix...
Well done, Bob.

Greg, thanks - much appreciated. Believe it or not, the sax was the longest part of the project. I pieced that together from three separately generated tracks. Thanks for the Lou Reed reference - another musical hero of mine...  Bob

Cool write Bob. You really have a talent for writing and you did a great job with the BIAB RTs. I enjoyed listening.

Hey there rsdean, great track, were would we be without Band In A Box, and our home studios, I wrote this song for my wife, I also Used Band In A Box but then transferred the audio files into Logic Pro X to mix the song.. the Band In A Box style is Jazz Funk Breezy Rhythem {75 rs} which was great for this song, I also added some extra BIAB tracks acoustic gtr and synth. you can hear the track at https://soundcloud.com/geir-borholm/i-live-to-love-you-by-geir-apra-2016I truly hope you like it, I've been using BIAB since 1993, and just about every song I've ever recorded has been with BIAB. to check out other tracks please visit www.geirborholm.comKeep up the great work rsdean, Kind Regards Geir

Hello Bob
I think that's one of your best song.
I like the style you use used and the chord progression.
The start remembers me the beginning of B.Springsteen's "streets of Philadelphia"
Well sung.

Loved the song...it was like Bob Dylan (your voice had that texture and nuance) meeting hip-hop with a little thematic Carly Simon "You're So Vain" crossed with the Eagles "Busy Being Fabulous"...really cool!

Hi Bob.
Now I DID like that!
A hypnotic track with clever phrasing, a great vocal, a super storyline and a classic mix.
I mean, what's not to like.
ROG.
