Loved what you've done with the core RT style (has endless potentials), and the "Wicked" allusion is certainly there but just subtle enough not to distract or take anything away from this being yours through & through.
The slowdown on the piano intro is just brill, how did you pull that off? Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I'm a big fan of Chris Isaak and always liked "Wicked Games". This calypso style did a good job capturing that feel I thought. The slowdown during the solo piano intro was accomplished by changing the tempo -5bpm in the bar settings just before the pause. The following bar where all the instruments begin, I changed the tempo back to the original tempo.

Nice Charlie. Has a Neil Young kind of feel to it. Thanks. I appreciate your comments.

The following bar where all the instruments begin, I changed the tempo back to the original tempo. Interesting. For a "whole bar" type of slow-down (which I wouldn't have guessed), I have to say it's quite effective.

Charlie nice song both music and lyrics (ditto on what everyone else said). I am constantly reminded (as I have heard a few songs now from others) that you guys have a handle on the use of BIAB. It is such a remarkable tool for people who like to create music. I never get tired of what it is capable of doing.

For a "whole bar" type of slow-down (which I wouldn't have guessed), I have to say it's quite effective. I saw the technique demonstrated in the very first Biab tutorial I ever watched. It was a fairly old video then and was done by a gentleman showing the Biab basics by doing a country song classic. I don't recall the song but it slowed at the end. I've used the technique periodically in songs all along in places where a riff or turn around plays to fast. This is the first time it has been noticed.

Sonny Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Yep, the User Showcase is a great place to learn. Knowledgeable, friendly and creative people abound. With Biab having more than 4,000 styles, it's a good place to find new styles as well. So far, most of the drama of the world has remained contained in the songs and not in the forum comments. A complete joy to be here and listen to better music than what graces our radios today.
