Although I didn't understand one word I really enjoyed the song! I thought that the song mix was very professional sounding.
To be honest I was a little confused about the video. Maybe that was because I don't know the language. Anyway I didn't get the baby part of it.
Great song!
Love is grand. Divorce is twenty grand!

Mario and Pat – thanks for listening and watching!
I'll try to translate the norwegian lyrics to english later on – meanwhile, here's some info about this project:
Got a challenge a couple of weeks ago – make a song and music video that will catch the attention of youths that want to be professional truck or bus drivers.
OK, then what… Well, truck and bus drivers in my country listen to country music, kids likes metal or modern machine music…
So, I ended up with this country-metal-arpeggiated tune:
StorBil / Big Cars
Again, with great help from BiaB – I just love this software! Thanks to everyone at PG Music!
Tracks used: RealTracks in style: ~520:Bass, Electric, Pop HalfNotes Ev 165 RealTracks in style: ~690:Organ, B3, Background Pop Ev 165 RealTracks in style: 1682:Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 165 RealTracks in style: ~524:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 165 RealDrums: RealDrums in Style: NashvilleOutlaw^10-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride
…and for the next weeks, it's time for the second part of the challenge; trying to make a catchy music video. Is there a ViaB-program anywhere? (Video-in-a-Box) Peter or anyone? ;-)

Hei broder !
Mitt norske hjaerta slår for din musikk ! :)) Som du vet är jag norsk på mödernesidan och Norge (det vackraste landet i världen) appellerar häftigt på mig, spesiellt fjaellen och de underbara vattenfallen !:)) (förutom Gudsbrandsdalsost och kransekake naturligtvis) !! Din video är helt enkelt fantastisk, det borde kunna locka nya elever att bli yrkesförare vilket på vägarna i ditt land nog kräver mera än en hel del !!!!!
Tack för den härliga videon vilken gjorde mig heldig och .......
Lycka till !!!!
Cheers Your halfnorwegian brother Daniel

very impressive project! I look forward to hearing more from you!
And I totally agree that PGMusic products really provide the tools for musically creative people to actualize their ideas into solid projects without getting bogged down by the technology. (which is what happened to me with every other DAW I tried before BIAB/RB)

Great fun and excellent use of BIAB! A pretty pro video also. I watched all the way through even though I had no idea what was being sung! Anyway, I like Norwegians because they send us an enormous Christmas tree every year for Trafalgar Square!  John

Hi Molsenhouse,
I already commented about the music. You might not have read it, at least you didn't answer it. So here is the video at last. It's great. Must have been a lot of work to get all these people under one roof. Impressive.

Thanks a lot for nice words, Dani (goda skandinaviska broder:) John, Charlie, Floyd and Guenter.
Sorry Guenter for not responding on your earlier comment – haven't been on the PG sites for weeks making this video. Glad you liked it!
And Pat and Mario…
…with a little help from a friend (GoogleTranselate) here comes a technical, not a poetical translation:
Big Trucks
If you’re going to learn to drive big trucks; COME TO US! Be safe on the narrow road from Sauda to Voss Fill up a large truck To run it many hundreds of miles
We will teach you to drive big trucks; HEAVY TRANSPORT! We will teach you to drive big trucks; HEAVY TRANSPORT!
Dangerous goods, oil-related shipping In traffic you need to learn and be alert If you come from a part of Rogaland With your own moving loads to Sauda
(Well, then ...) We shall teach you to drive big trucks; HEAVY TRANSPORT! (and a little LOGISTICS) We shall teach you to drive big trucks; PASSENGER! (and PASSENGER TRAFFIC)
Living in a bedsit away from mother Be well-known inside the Sauda Fjord
(But tell me;) Have you finished VG1? And will try to stand on "your own feet"? Then you should apply to join VG2 Proceed to VG3 and become a real professional driver
We shall teach you to drive big trucks; HEAVY TRANSPORT! (and a little LOGISTICS) We shall teach you to drive the bus; PASSENGERS! (and PASSENGERS TRAFFIC) You shall learn to drive big trucks; HEAVY TRANSPORT! (and LOGISTICS, yes LOGISTICS) You shall learn to drive the bus; PASSENGERS! (PASSENGER TRAFFICS with eagle eyes)
Logistics and trucks – driving several thousand miles Sleeping time and old food – filling fuel and packing goods Moving into bedsits - mope a little, playing the blues Gear down and then accelerate - brake a little to make room La-la-la-la-la-la ... La-la-la-la-la-la ...

Hi Molsenhouse,
A very nice production indeed. The song also sounds quite well. As for your question about video programms: we use a) Power Director and b) Serif MoviePlus (which is very simple and cheap). It has less effects, but a much better "zoom function" than Power Director, which has many more possibilities and effects.
Rob and Anne-Marie
