Hi, friends

I must confess I don´t write much music
nowadays but after a week in Norway together
with my sweet little ladyfriend I just had
to write down this tune. I wondered if I
should post this as I am not as active as
I once was but I wanted to show my friends
(if there are any left) that I was still alive
and kickin´

pictures from our Norway trip (visitig my half cousins):

The Style is: NWORSUF.STY (New Orleans Shuffle Band)
and the instrumets are:

Bass: 2435
Piano: 2437
Drums: Realdrums NO Shuffle
Guitar: 2436
Strings: 51 Synth Strings 1

Recorded and mixed with Mixcraft 6, Zoom h4n used as mic.
The lyrics are as follows:

OH, MY BABE, LOVE ME BABE (Dani)

Gimme some time
and I´ll come up with a rhyme
as I´ve been talkin´
while I´m walkin´
I´ll put the words on a line

Thinkin´of you
and all the things that we do
I wanna feel you so close and near
I wanna feel the love that we share
Oh, my babe, love me babe
Oh, my babe, love me babe

Walkin´the floor
I think of you more and more
I doubt if ever
or close to never
I´ve been so happy before

It´s all your fault
that my soul turned default
you got me caught in a loving craze
I love to be in your wonderful maze
Oh, my babe, love me babe
Oh, my babe, love me babe

When we´re together we´ll change the weather and the sun will shine again
every time that you touch my hand it´ll feel so grand and then
I wanna hug you dear and kiss your lips and then I´ll take you far away
without a trace to a secret place to the land of love, our love will grow
in the good ol´ land of Norway

When we´re together we´ll change the weather and the sun will shine again
every time that you touch my hand it´ll feel so grand and then
I wanna hug you dear and kiss your lips and then I´ll take you far away
without a trace to a secret place to the land of love, our love will grow
in the good ol´ land of Norway
land of love, our love will grow
in the good ol´ land of Norway

Cheers
Dani

Dani, you should know you'll always have friends here. This is a really cute song!! Starts out with a little Sinatra feel. The music/lyrics are both very fun and catchy. Please keep posting-we love hearing from you!!! Take care. Greg

"I doubt if ever
or close to never..."

Dani. Has anybody every told you that you are a complete softy? grin
Nobody writes and sings these love songs like you do. And as Floyd says...once a month, once a year we don't care!

Hi Dani,

This song shows you're happy and it's never too late to let people know you are!
Is that HER next to the SoundCloud song? We guess so. Lovely!
And.... lovely song too!

Dani,

So good to hear from you again.
You certainly know how to write a good love song.
Excellent vocals as usual.

Keep letting us know, in song, how your love progresses. She is a lucky lady to have such beautiful songs written about her.

Take care both!

Alyn

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.
