Ricky wrote this lovely song, and he and I have been trading e-mails. I asked his permission to use Real Tracks to create a new arrangement of his song "I Lost My Friend". The first link is his demo, the second is the new arrangement. All comments are welcomed. This is another way RealBand can be used!!!

I kept waiting for drums, probably around the 1 20 mark or so. It would punch it up. The frills I heard were ok, but at somepoint it would drive it...

I'd also hold the chord with the voice at the end....

I did not add a drum track yet, as Ricky did not include that in his demo. Without a doubt, drums should launch at the chorus of this song.

If Ricky provides us with the .sgu file, perhaps others can take a stab at this nice song.

Everyone is welcome to the .sgu file. Just let me know how to go about posting it somewhere. I personally tried drums on the file when I first wrote it but the pushes caused me issues so I took them out. Hopefully you musical wizards can figure out what I couldn't.

I've got several songs that I play to do demos for and having folks like y'all work on them would be fantastic. If anyone wants other songs to play with, let me know. I can post a capella versions or I can create barebones chord-only versions and you guys and gals can have at them. Would be an interesting exercise to see the differences in ideas and processes.

Mooey,

What can I say? I really like the way you express yourself musically on everything I've heard so far. Great job here. Add drums and it's a wrap.

There's nothing I can say that hasn't already been said. I really enjoyed listening to this arrangement of Ricky's song, Moo.

Ricky,

You will need a website to upload the file to first (.sgu). Then copy that link and post it in this forum via the URL function in the reply options. One website is Box.net, (free to use) for uploading files with. I enjoyed this song very much. I know writing songs is NOT an easy thing to do and this one was great.

Moo,

Great job with the RealTracks and the new arrangement.

Moo you did good with this. The backing track added a peaceful feeling. Very pro sounding. You've come a long way baby. It helps doing this stuff when you've got a good singer like Rickie to work with.
