This song has a simple message, kind of a reminder to myself also: small thoughtful words can be of great importance to someone and one true fan is more valuable than number of listeners or likes in the social media.
Thanks again to Miira for her great vocals. At first I thought that this song would not fit her voice, but she managed to sing so well that I don't have to look for another singer.

Lyrics:
You don't need a crowd to praise you when you play guitar You only need one to tell you how important you are you only need one to find you among brighter stars to show you your worth you are her caviar.
Often I look for more favor but I am too blind to see my own greed one is enough for the blessing of life I already have what I really need.
You don't have to live from the likes of the virtual mind you only need one whose feedback is thoughtful and kind you only need one who follows the path you've designed who's honest and real and won't leave you behind.
[Chorus]
I still cling to the fleeting moments those time grains in a sandglass, I should seek the rare things that won't go with the first tide dissolve when decades pass but stay by your side.
Are you the one not afraid of throwing herself out off the safe ground? Are you the one who wants to dive deep knowing there's a pearl waiting to be found?
Very nice song with an interesting chord pattern. Miira has such a lovely voice. And yes, this song is a perfect fit for her voice. Everything works so good in this recording - the backing tracks, the chord pattern, Miira's voice - everything.
small thoughtful words can be of great importance to someone and one true fan is more valuable than number of listeners or likes in the social media................AMEN!!! This is beautifully done!! I think Mira is perfect for it. It has sort of a Cranberries vibe. Very pleasant, very melodic, and well arranged/mixed. Excellent job with this one!! Take care. Greg
Cool song! I love where the melody and chords go some unexpected but beautiful turns very nice vocals Super mix, super song enjoyed the video too Kenny
Thanks Kenny for your nice feedback, especially about the vocals and video I'm really glad you found the chord turns beautiful
This is very nice! Miira's voice and way of singing strongly reminds me of the female singer of the cranberries (Dolores). Good and thorough musical arrangement.

Thank you Shigeki for your kind comment I'm pleased you liked the chord progression and the bridge melody - I'm satisfied with it also, because it is bit unusual, but still close to my own style.

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.
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.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
