This time I remade it with RealTracks. Now I introduce it to you. Title:友達以上恋人未満(Translation: More Than Friends, Less Than Lovers) Vocal by me Accompanied with Rock Band. Style is _TEXASRK.STY (Bar Settings: Time Sig to 3/4) RealTracks in style: 1419:Bass, Electric, TexasRock Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 657:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm TexasRockChop Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 660:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm TexasRockCrisp Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 671:Organ, B3, Background Southern Ev 120 RealDrums: RealDrums in Style: RockTexas^1-a:HiHat, b:OpenHat Additional Style is 60S44ROK.STY(MIDI) (Bar Settings: Time Sig to 3/4) MIDI Drums played with Groove Agent One Additional Guitars: Played by students of Yamaha Music School Guitar Class Link: https://soundcloud.com/animarorecords/more-than-friends-2016ver Best Regards. Shigeki Adachi Translation of lyrics: (Please forgive my poor English.) “More Than Friends, Less Than Lovers” I can’t go back ever again, can’t return to the previous condition. We were only friends a little while ago Drawing you close to me, but you don’t escape from my arms I’m so happy to kiss you over and over again, You don’t remove my palm placed on your knee You are leaning your soft body on me deliberately Blaming the cocktails, you are picking a quarrel with me and behaving like a baby Clearly your behavior is different from as usual My heart is flared up by your behavior To tell the truth, I have loved you from a long time ago Soaring with joy because you are intimately in my arms now And you are obedient unusually I never could have imagined such a day would come I will hold you tight and never let you go Hiding my heart sometimes quietly and sometimes struggling But maybe you have been aware of my feeling for you Pretending not to be aware of such feeling Remaining friends is sometimes wisdom as adult But this must be a greatest happiness I should grasp the good luck in front me without hesitation You are so precious to me as you are breathing a little hard all this while Entangling our lips and I squeeze you again Please stay and we should not miss the chance because you already came up to my room We are going to be lovers surely tonight

The other part worked very well. The music from the students worked great! Good mix and production. Nice job all the way around!! Take care. Greg

Bach like chord progression and your vocal style make this song very special in a positive way. The lead guitars are great. I enjoyed my listen.

Throw in some Texas and some Japan - and you have a multicultural hit! Nice. Enjoyed. Well sung. floyd 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

My daughter was adopted from Asia, and now that she is older she celebrates her roots by exploring the cultures and music of the region. Upshot for me is that, any time she's home the house is filled with K-pop, J-pop, Theme songs from popular Anime series, OST from Korean dramas, etc... so this song fits right into my normal listening environment! You are a very talented musician, Shigeki Adachi! Thanks for sharing your work with us! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ey71h8ep047758h/AAC12jNM0Hz9Q8zsh5iDeqNHa?dl=0

OP animarorecords Veteran Joined: May 2015 Posts: 3,213 Aichi, Japan	Hello, Pat Many thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. And kind words every time. I sympathize a little bit with the house is filled with K-pop, J-pop, Theme songs from popular Anime series. Because they are fairly noisy if not accustomed to hear. Though I much prefer American and European Pops, ironically, you feel something like the flavor of J-Pop in my music, don’t you? But I am glad to hear your comments very much. Best Regards. Shigeki Adachi
