listener request:

add the lyrics and a little about how the song was constructed, including anything you may have played, real tracks used, style used, midi instruments, synth used, day of the week it was recorded on, the name of your dog, your favorite color, your mother's maiden name etc

You know the drill

no disrespect or offence meant, truly...but why?

And in any case Pat, I thought you couldn't listen to them anyway, with your browser or whatever it was that was causing the problem...did you sort it out? I did ask you on the other thread but you missed it or forgot to reply or something??

Okay (and I would still like to know why it is important to insert this info wink ) here is some further data:

BIAB Style _BRSOLC2 - all real drums and real tracks - Drums, Bass and Guitar, piano part is me, vocals is me.

I had a little difficulty making out some of the lyrics.
But if you don't want to post them, no big deal.

Hi Dennis,

Congratulations on writing a country song smile Doesn't BIAB make songwriting in different genres so easy! Quite honestly, if it wasn't for PG Music, I'd still be stuck in ballads circa 1970.

I really liked this - great driving beat and a liberally applied touch of good old fashioned style rhythm 'n' blues in the backing and melody. You're arrangement is first class! It's easy to hear that you're a man who knows his music.

Regards,
Noel

Thanks Noel smile It's nice to have people enjoying the tunes unconditionally wink

Dennis

PS: Yes I agree BIAB is such a great tool for writing songs. These tunes would not have seen the light of day, albeit only as demos, if not for BIAB.

Aces!!

Enunciation and diction are super important in country since it is a more "lyric" oriented genre. The music and melody are pretty good. Good job on your first country song.

______________________________________________________________________

Here are the instructions at the top of the Forum section:

Quote:
With the posts, please provide:
Link to the song (it is not hosted on our site, it is hosted on your site).

Indicate which tracks were recorded by you, and which tracks were generated by Band-in-a-Box or RealBand.
If Band-in-a-Box or RealBand have been used, please provide information as to which styles or RealTracks were used. (tip: In Band-in-a-Box, the Song Memo contains the names of the RealTracks used, and you can copy/paste from that.)
List other programs used in the production (Sonar, Cubase etc.)
Describe what effects were used in the production (reverb, auto-tune etc).


The User Showcase is to enjoy others' BIAB creations, but also to learn how folks are using the program to create original tunes. That's the only reason Pat asked for that, ne need to jump all over him.

I did reply to your previous query, but not with a new post, I added a post script to my original post saying that I was finally able to listen.

and regarding the question of why to add all that stuff (minus the obviously goofy things like name of dog and mom's maiden name) forum guidelines issued by Peter Gannon suggest doing that, And we've become accustomed to seeing it. I wasn't trying to be difficult, honest.. I was just requesting more info because I was interested. Thats a GOOD thing, right?

wink

kevin, you must have been typing at the same time I was! only your answer was better. Thanks!

Thanks for the song comment but as for the rest, sorry but I didn't jump all over anyone...I DID preface it by saying no disrespect and no offence...and with a smiley too...

I agree Pat, no problems. It is just not something I normally would do. I just assumed it did not really matter all that much.

I certainly hope you DON'T think "Kevins" post is better when he asserts "I jumped all over you??"
I did preface the quesdtion with a no offence/disrespect comment, which was sincere. I am sorry you seem to have taken it the wrong way and not in the spirit in which it was meant.

Dennis

PS: Sorry about missing the postscript on the other thread, I was sort of anticipating a reply directly under my post in which I posed the question.

no, I meant his post was better than mine because he actually posted the forum header instead of paraphrasing it as I did. It was simply a more powerful way to make the point. But then, that's what song writers are really GOOD at... making powerful points with words

Quote:

actually, I didn't take offense at all... I took what you said pretty much exactly as you have reiterated here. No problems at all. Unless I can see a reason why somebody might feel the need for confrontation, it is my nature to presume there is no confrontation intended.

And, no problem regarding the other post... I figure you probably didn't get around to seeing that I had already replied yet, but that you would eventually see it and all would make sense.

so, no worries on this end. Apologies if any of my replies were stated awkwardly enough to be ambiguous. I try to keep that from happening, but not very well it seems.

Cool Pat, I am relieved no offence was taken smile fwiw, I really dislike confrontation as well. I won't walk away if I have been slighted, but I ALWAYS try to avoid it.

I probs should couch questions in a less direct manner..face to face it is not problem but in text it is so much more difficult.

And re Kevins post, sure I get that too as in what he WAS trying to do) smile I just felt he was actually jumping on me...probably an incorrect assumption on my part as well blush

Okay all good now - group hug smile

Hi again, Dennis!

I just popped in for another listen. I'm still liking your song a great deal and I'm still convinced you're a very competent musician wink

I hope you don't mind but I received a bit of a surprise after reading through the above exchange of comments and I couldn't leave without adding a few thoughts. My feelings were that for someone who is pretty much a brand new song poster on this forum, you're being given a bit of a hard time.

I'm on your side. For what it's worth, I did not read you as "jumping" over anyone. To me, your post sounded polite and sincere. I'm a bit bamboozled as to how it's been interpreted it any other way.

I've seen it happen before, though. Because writing lacks the tone of speech, every once in a while, things get taken the wrong way.

  • I have to confess. That happened to me just a couple of days ago! A good friend, and someone I respect a great deal in this forum, posted a comment directed at me that I read completely out of context. I was tired and could not see past my initial interpretation of what I'd read! I felt like an idiot afterwards when I realised I'd jumped off the deep end for no reason. Luckily this friend is very understanding *phew*! LOL!!! Oh well, the positive side is that it's good to know I still need to learn a few things in Life. Just when I thought I was on top of all that, too ...

Back to my thoughts ...

I never used to post lyrics to my songs. Then, one day, it occurred to me that by posting my lyrics, a few things happen.

  • My lyrics are time-stamped by the forum software and, as such, another aspect of copyright protection is added.
  • Google indexes my lyrics. This allows people to check the work of others to see if they are infringing any aspect of copyright. For example, if you put "dancing and dreaming in gentle arms" into Google, the latest song I've posted here is at the top of the search results. That link will then lead the researcher to my audio recording. They can then compare what they hear with the work of others. With an audio recording alone, it's more complicated to find via a simple search. (Because I'm a school teacher, I'm always using Google to double-check whether students have copied and pasted from the internet as a shortcut on assignments.)
  • People from all the countries around the world might not understand every word I'm singing (that good ole Aussie accent doesn't work for everyone!). Having the lyrics helps them out.

These are simply my thoughts. I just wanted to share them for what they're worth. Please feel free to ignore them completely.

My main reason for writing this post is to say that I sincerely hope you are not discouraged from posting more songs. After listening to "On Our Own" for the 5th time, I have the feeling that I, and others, are going to learn a lot from hearing your work smile

All the best,
Noel

It is what it is. It just seemed that you were mildly upset that the background info was being asked for (and PG Music wants us to include that info). If you weren't, then that is great.

With respect Kevin, you should really put in the FULL sentences of what I said, not remove bits to make it suit your original post.

Removing the rest of the sentences does make them appear to be the way you suggested, however, below are the exact words used in reply to Pat which, imho, paint an entirely different picture (and even Pat acknowledged no offence taken) :

no disrespect or offence meant, truly...but why?

And in any case Pat, I thought you couldn't listen to them anyway, with your browser or whatever it was that was causing the problem...did you sort it out? I did ask you on the other thread but you missed it or forgot to reply or something??

Okay (and I would still like to know why it is important to insert this info ) here is some further info.



And your other line from a later post re an unconditional listen is not really directed at anyone, just I appreciated the unqualified words of encouragement Noel gave me. So why you have included it in your return post above is beyond me.

Fairs fair after all.

However if you are prepared to move on then I am too smile

Thanks

Dennis
