OP RnAM Veteran Joined: May 2014 Posts: 4,067 The Netherlands	What is this, a Dutch song? Yes, I decided to post a song in my native language for a change The song itself is actually quite old. The original recording was done on a Fostex 4 track cassette recorder in 1994. I recorded this new 2014 Band in a Box version 2 days ago. The vocals were recorded with an AKG D 310 microphone. The relatively short time it took to create this (approximately a total of 8 hours), and the improved quality is one of the many examples of the power of Band in a Box. As a comparison I included the link to the original version at the end of this post. If you're not Dutch, Belgian or German the lyrics probably won't make much sense. Therefore I included an English translation. Nog 1x met jou Style: _kebmo.sty crossover (85 rs) Real Tracks : 379 bass electric country doubletime ev 088 381 guitar electric rhythm syncopated sugar ev 102 382 guitar slide background blues ev 085 1582 guitar high strung acoustic rhythm folkie 16th 1608 guitar high strung acoustic rhythm pop 16th 1002 guitar 12 string acoustic rhythm classic rock ev 16 689 organ B3 background pop ev 85 2203 guitar electric Pop promise Brent (soloist) MIDI track: gm2 6-3 ep legend real drums: Nashville pop 16 Original 1994 version lyrics: Nog een keer met jou Hee, ga je niet mee? Ik wacht al zo lang Woorden tekort Nog een keer met jou. Zoals het toen was Zolang het er was Want eenmaal alleen loop ik door een lege straat En ik zie mezelf als een ander Soms denk ik hoe ik ook praat. Het lijkt steeds te laat Om jou aandacht te vangen Voor het eerst in zes jaar. Lijkt het zo waar Ik kan jou niet meer vervangen Maar ik neem met me mee wat ik niet vergeten kan En ik zie mezelf als geen ander Eenmaal weg gekeken. Is eenmaal laten gaan Maar je denkt toch telkens weer Dat dan een ander je ziet staan Zeg nu niet nee Je was heel dichtbij. Maar toch niet van mij Je hebt me niets willen zeggen Toen was ik de koning te rijk. Maar nu ik terugkijk Hoef je me niets meer uit te leggen Ik neem met me mee wat ik niet vergeten kan En ik zie mezelf als een ander Als een ander English translation: One more time with you hey, won't you come along? I've been waiting for so long lost for words just one more time with you. like it was back then. as long as we were cause once I'm alone I walk the empty streets and I feel like someone else sometimes no matter what I say, it always seems too late to get your attention for the first time in six years it seems so real there's no replacing you but I'm taking along all the things I can't forget and I feel like everyone else The minute I looked away is the moment you were gone but you always think someone else will notice you please don't say no but I'm taking along all the things I can't forget and I feel like everyone else You were very close still you weren't mine you didn't want to say back then I felt like a king. but looking back now there's no need to explain but I'm taking along all the things I can't forget and I feel like someone else like someone else Hope you like it, regards, Rob We are Rob Meulman and Anne-Marie Bovenkamp from The Netherlands. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1gsdNLE7_Gy8qavoOplQow/videos http://rnam.net/

Being from South African and Afrikaans being similar to Dutch I could pick up a few of the lyrics but was glad of the translation! Isn't it interesting what you can create in 8 hours using BIAB. I enjoyed both versions. LyricLab – Where words become music https://www.lyriclab.net/

And you guys are are such good songwriters and vocalists. I (Alan) speak fairly good German and given the subtle similarities of the two languages, I was able to understand parts of the Dutch. Very nicely done. We totally enjoyed our listen. great song!!!!!!

In a way it's easier for us to compose in our own language, however we love the English language. We find it more subtle and melodic in a way.
