Hi David, this explains your confusion. I applaud your honesty regarding being uneducated. You might consider earning a degree in biology. This would allow you to understand peer-reviewed journal papers, mRNA technology, antibodies and other important subjects. Who knows, you may go on to contribute something scientifically important to mankind.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677 BiaB 2026 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.
The first thing I thought was the vocals were too low in the mix, you want to hear these lyrics clearly.
Well this is where the music was left behind. Put it in a song musocity & I might listen but dropping a line of critique to take the opportunity to throw a marginal rant into the thread isn't useful or respectful. If you want to trade Qdrops with the O.P. use the message service. 1st it was someone trying to shut down the music becasue of a vague relationship with forum norms and now another using it as a springboard to a deep bore. Given the current time frame within the USA the post could & should be read as party political campaign material.

Really good arrangement and excellent performances. The lyrics fold back on themselves in a few spots - reference to the aged being one. The message is clear though proposing capital punishment for governments, the great reset, demonizing groups are all just a stones throw away from Q tropes or worse. We're having a royal commission into the pandemic management of the govt. as well as instituting an Anti Corruption Commission as we progress from that crisis deeper into the climate one. Terrific package though not one from which I would consume the contents.
That was long before I said a thing, am I the one giving the user a hard time ? you guys were at it 5 days before I said anything to support the user. The video said everything I said, should we ban it ? Get onto "The Ministry of Truth" to get them to delete from youtube, cancel the user ? They are many ways to be enlightened, it could come easy or you may need to go through years of suffering, hospitals life support machines.... I would look at respecting those that have been through something like this and don't take what they say lightly as these things can happen when we least expect it and come back to bite. If you are of the world the world will love you, if you are not of this world the world will hate you.
ps. you can cancel Bob's Masters of War also:
Come you masters of war You that build the big guns You that build the death planes You that build all the bombs You that hide behind walls You that hide behind desks I just want you to know I can see through your masks .... .... And I hope that you die And your death'll come soon I will follow your casket In the pale afternoon And I'll watch while you're lowered Down to your deathbed And I'll stand over your grave 'Til I'm sure that you're dead
What your song states can only happen via extra-judicial means.
You write here about "trials", but there's no mention of that in your song, only of "hang" and "hung".
You write here "if people are guilty", but your song states unequivocally that these people are guilty.
As for the "punishment should fit the crime", hanging in the UK has been abolished since 1969, and capital punishment since 1998. The UK is a signee of the 13th Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights, which prohibits the restoration of the death penalty.
Your song is literally a call to violence.
Hi David, it does say when the truth all comes clear, and there are the Nuremberg trial images in the video. I did have to stop writing as there were already too many verses ( you might think 8 too many :-) ) and had to take some out, though that was around the PCR tests and the mandates.
It doesn't matter if I think they're guilty, it has to be proved so it's down to the courts etc, who I'm sure we can trust to do the right thing.
Personally I think the world would be a much better place if the punishment did fit the crime and would gladly turn back the clock to when man didn't walk on the moon :-)
Thanks again for the comments, I have previously thought about putting a disclaimer on some of my songs, like they used to do in the letters page, "Views expressed in this song are not necessarily the views of the singer or the writer".
I wonder if Morrisey had thought about it when he sang "Hang The DJ", unless he was talking about a tuxedo :-) or if you're from the UK, Mike Read - only joking, he's a really nice bloke and didn't seem to be in a Panic about it.

If we go back in history we see propaganda sweep whole countries away to do pure evil. If you spoke out it was the end of you, but then what happened in the end, the name of this song ! to those that caused the problem and those in the media that pushed the propaganda narrative. It's just happening because leaders are following a global evil cabal. I have zero to do with politics. It's no coincidence that a US president is got rid of by dubious means then since then everything is going down the drain world wide and on the brink of WWIII. All that's happened over these last few years is to wake people up. Pipelines cancelled and blown up. What's going on now around the world is a waking up, a Near Death Experience on a massive global scale. I don't need no waking up, I had my Near Death Experience 32 years ago, my sensitivity level is on 100 not the normal 10. One thing that is guaranteed to work without fail 100% to let you see the truth is get out of your body then you are not accessing all the information stored in you brain from school, university, media etc.. when you are out of that brain you have an expanse of consciousness and understanding. You don't come back from something like that and get your information from CNN, you see from a trillion miles away what the story is. I'm sorry if I offend anyone but everything that I have been through would be useless and pointless if I don't say anything. How many of us if we were back in the late 1930's in Europe now would be following the main street narrative or would we be speaking out and saying such n such should happen to them. The US fought along with England and Russia to defeat the N@zis, they didn't side with N@zis to fight Russia.
Now is an important time to discern the truth to lift humanities consciousness up to a higher level.
Hi Musocity, that had been my initial concern too but we seem to be in the minority. Pretty sure it's not the first time for either of us, eh :-)
There's definitely an awakening ongoing! Slowly.

Hi Bass Thumper, ouch, I didn't say I was uneducated but thanks :-) I did start and run two very successful businesses, some would say partly due to seeing things 'outside of the box', so being uneducated hasn't been too much of a hinderence for me.
And I'm sorry but these experts that you have a lot of faith in still don't know what is causing the current excess death rates of 15% in the UK, as much as 20-25% in parts of Europe, or the lower birth rates of 10-15% in the same areas or increased stillborn & miscarriage rates of up to 20% in Scotland etc. So far they seem to have come up with amongst others, gardening, falling asleep watching TV, skipping breakfast, living under a flight path, being a lonely older woman and good old climate change.
My uneducated non peer-reviewed contribution as a guess would be to have a look at the jab.
You're welcome :-) Will I have to make a speech when the award is announced as I'm not very good at public speaking, or is there a cash alternative?
Cheers :-)

Ah, thanks Rayc, I see what you mean - "They euthenised the old" related to the initial care homes scandal and the increase in the use of Midazolam in the UK, and "Protect the old to hell with the young" related to them jabbing children so as not to kill Granny. Sadly I wasn't able to fit all the memes and images that parts were inspired by or related to.
Really good arrangement and excellent performances. The lyrics fold back on themselves in a few spots - reference to the aged being one. .... Terrific package though not one from which I would consume the contents.
You're a hoot: you're always right, your experiences are paramount and your arguments can't be countered as per the Qbook on argument. You didn't offer music or a real critique - you offered a very large jumble of stuff that's a reflection of your values and politics. I hope I wrote that correctly - it had to be about you after all. Your political scree isn't appropriate unless in a musical frame. The O.P. posted a contentious lyric in a very, very good song. He seems open to dialogue as he responded effectively and pleasantly.
As to Bob Dylan, well, wrote a lot of great stuff BUT he out weights that with his tosh, his born again music, (bad music regardless of the text), and his last 40 plus years of treading water. I'm not sure he'd be happy being co-opted. Rather like almost most artists & the Rump campaign feel I suspect.
Enjoy yourself.

No worries, djames. An excellent submission. Thank you for clarifying the tracks you used from Band in a Box, it helps us tremendously.
Many of us know how difficult it is and the considerable amount of work that can go into putting songs together.
Have a good one,
Tom Marvan / dunbar7376

Hi Tom, apologies for the omission - for the background keyboard I used 2406:Synth, Rhythm from _NEWWAVE.STY. I did also use 3627:Guitar, Electric in the same style to give the guitarist the feel I wanted for one of the tracks - a sort of Andy Summers (Police) sound which helped as well.
No idea on effects used as I outsourced the final stage.

fair comment but, to be sure, many (I have not heard them all) of those other folk have not posted anything musically that asks me, "which tracks are BIAB, which are not?" as this one did. If a post here contains no trace of BIAB and was intentional, then it may be considered insincere.
I think the minimum "rule" hurdle here is that a song possess something from BIAB (we certainly don't want to micro-manage out those that don't follow every scintilla of the rules - it's uncreative, a waste of time, and could exclude many gems unfairly). Still, if one were to poll the more (than me) erudite members of the forum on which parts of this tune are BIAB, and which are not, then be would get many varied answers. Assuming this conclusion to be correct, then this may speak to how this song may stand apart from the other folks'. Or not.
My first submission contained several positive, negative (maybe harsh) and mixed comments, but I appreciated them all, certainly more than no feedback at all.
And I appreciate your feedback on my own comments to this, too. It allowed me to clarify some potential misunderstandings. Thank you, rayc.

dunbar7376. [/quote] I think that's a little harsh. Several regular regular posters give minimal detail on their BIAB components. Occasionally folk give none. As this seems to be the 1st post from this person a little latitude might be considered an act of sincerity regarding an interest in posters abiding by "the rules". I posted a song that I'd written with BIAB but the end result contained no RT/Midi etc. If your interest/ negative attention was secured by way of the narrative of the song then your response might even be hypocritical or very selective at least.

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
