Hi, buena Gente !:))

Well, Spain is a beautiful
country that can be quite cold
at night during wintertime though
the temp rises considerably during
the day ! So I did get miself a
little cold and had to take some
medication back home ! I guess it
can be heard here in my latest lovesong for Li :))

Cheers

Darlin´ Please Give Me That Smile (by Dani) ©Dani Lindroos 2015

My little Darlin´ I just can´t wait
to have you end my lone and lonely fate
´cause I have missed you more than you could ever know
let me show

I haven’t seen you for a day or two
you´ve been away and that has made me go blue
but now I know that soon I´ll get to hold you tight
all night

I love your features and I love your eyes
I love to kiss you ´cause your lips are so nice
I´m just in seventh heaven when I see your smile
so smile! :))
So Darlin´please give me that smile it´s so worthwhile
your smile ! Smile!

We´ve been together but not for so long
and still we´ve been singing the same ol´song
I hope we´ll stay together for now on
and that our troubles are forever gone

I love your features and I love your eyes
I love to kiss you ´cause your lips are so nice
´cause I have missed you more than you could ever know
let me show
but now I know that soon I´ll get to hold you tight
all night
I´m just in seventh heaven when I see your smile
so smile! :))
So Darlin´please give me that smile it´s so worthwhile
your smile ! Smile!

+1 for this song Dani. Sorry about your cold. I had one when I did my last song too. You still were able to do a nice job on the vocals.

Hi Dani,

hope your cold gets better soon. You seem a little out of breath in this one. Nice tune. Especially liked your bass parts.
Enjoyable listen.

Hehehe. Nice song, nice ending.

I find writing "happy" songs a hard thing to do, and it's always nice to hear an upbeat song.

Thank you Greg so much
for those warm and kind words !
Yes, I am trying to compose
in different styles for maximum
variation asnd not to get
too stuck in one or two ?
Besides, it is a real challenge to
try out styles I´m not really
too much familiar with from the past !

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.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

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.
