David,
An excellent Love-Song-write.
"And when you’re praying late at night
I know sometimes you pray for me
So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need"
Nice!
A very strong chorus, too.
A very sincere sounding vocal. Special.

David,
it's a sweet song carried by a good arrangement and lovely positive lyric but the rendition of the melody clunks at the end of the 1st line.
Cheers

"And when you’re praying late at night
I know sometimes you pray for me
So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need'
Were I (Bud) a talented song writer I would write something like this from me to Janice immediately!
Wonderful theme, lyric and production and so emotionally performed.
Wow!!

David, what a great start to a new year and what a fantastic love song.
"So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need"
This is so true. I thank him everyday for my wife.
As you said "that's what love will do"!
I think this one of if not the best you have ever done. Great vocal and backing tracks. But man those lyrics really took it over the top for me.
Life is short so make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet arguing with strangers.

Well, David, that's what I call a nice habit...
But you're far too fast for me - I'm still turning over in my mind what I might comment on WHITE WRAPPING. The Kanye + DJT video is still haunting me in my nightmares, gimme a break... No song for European sissies, I suppose...
So it's a treat to listen to WHAT LOVE CAN DO - it's so nice... Just love everything about it: great backing track, excellently sung, very impressive.
Thanks for soothing my mixed-up mind and again Happy New Year.
Stefan

Very strong chorus that is musically climactic without being overwhelming. I like where the melody went at the end of the second verse on the line "Even when there’s pouring rain." Thanks for sharing your positive and heartfelt song.

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.
