I tell you that you're pretty
And that dress looks nice
Later we'll go dancin
And we'll have a good time
But lately, you've been distant
Like you've got a lot of things on your mind
Lately, you're so busy
That I'm finally startin' to find
You don't care enough to give a damn
Don't care enough to give a damn

I sent flowers to the office
Just to show you that you're on my mind
You never even notice or
Acknowledge that I'm tryin'
Now I start to wonder
If you're seeing somebody new
But you are so indifferent
So I know it just can't be true
You don't care enough to give a damn
Don't care enough to give a damn

How did it happen, how did we drift so far apart
When did we reach the point of no return

Now I have somebody special
Who has come into my life
I tell her that she's pretty
And her dress looks nice
Now I realize I haven't thought
Of you in such a long time
Lately, I'm so busy
That I'm finally startin' to find
I don't care enough to give a damn
Don't care enough to give a damn

Are those Real Tracks in this? I really enjoyed the E. Piano sound ya used as well.

Nice harmonies, love the backing vocal structure you came up with.

Song sounds great !!! Excellent axe riffs, perfect for my taste.

Trax,

The only real tracks I have in this song is the drums. I had tried some other
real tracks but could not get them to fit right. The electric piano for this
tune came from Native Instruments Electrik Piano vst plug-in with me adding delay
and reverb to the track. Thanks for the listen and the
comments.

Powderman,

I start off with BiaB and work out the chord structure and arrangement with all midi tracks if possible.
This way rebuilding the song is fast. As soon as I get the arrangement and structure complete or close, I start
adding or substituting real tracks. If they match what's in my head, they stay, if not, I'll try other
instruments or cut and paste. Then I'll export the RT's as wav files and import them into Sonar. Then
I add vocals, guitars and other keys if necessary.

Mick,

Thanks for listening and commenting

Danny,

I describe most of my instrumentation and production in my response to Powderman. The interesting thing
is how much I use BiaB even if there aren't many Real Tracks in the final production. It is such a wonderful
tool that allows me great flexibility over arrangement choices. I love this product and the real tracks are
great.

Sounds really good and nice composition too. Are you playing the guitars or are they realtracks? And the drums are they RD drums, and if so, which style?

Brilliant work!

Howard,

Thanks for listening and commenting

Skyline,

Thanks for listening and commenting. Don't believe I've ever heard the term
"Plank spanking" but I like it a lot

Stratocaster,

Thanks, I played everything except the drums which are indeed real tracks
