Hi, friends !:)

Been awfully long since I was around
partly because I have been in Spain
down at Marianico and I do not have
any means there to write or record so....
Please, forgive me for the delay, but
here is my latest just home again
after a long sejour down there !

It is written for my dearest !

Here are the links:

No Bodhran:

and here are the lyrics:

MY LOVE IS YOU (words and music by Norman Wibe)

Can feel the sunshine
can sense the upcomin´rain
it´s goin´to fall, a sky I can see
so dark as can be

It´s goin´to rain now
I´ll see a rainbow
but I do not care, as long as I share
your love my dear
right here

So when you´re away ev´rythin´looks gray and darker still
how much I try can´t bend it on to my will

For you I´m yearnin´
For you I´m burnin´
I´m lovin´your smile, it is so worthwile
and I love your style

I need you darlin´
I want you darlin´
I love you so true, you know that I do
my love is you
only you

solo

I need you darlin´
I want you darlin´
I love you so true, you know that I do
my love is you
only you

Nice to hear another of your compositions, Dani.

The Bodhran was an interesting inclusion smile

Sweet song, lovely lyrics...

The Bodhran seemed like an unusual choice.

Dani, using that Bodhran and its groove was an interesting choice but you made it work!

As usual a super vocal.

Excellent song my friend.

Hi, Mario !:))

Long time no hear !
I´ve been away from all my friends
for too long - but at my age you´ll try
to use as much time as possible down
in Marianico for the sun and warm
weather ! Up here in Kyrkslätt (Churchmoor)
I have all my electronics for making music !

I am very glad for your most kind words
truly really much appreciated and I hope
I´ll be able to listen to some of the super
music composed and put up on our website !

Cheers
Dani

Good the hear you back again!

The bodhran felt a bit like it was competing against the melody, but I ignored it and enjoyed the song anyway! wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi David !

You are perfectly right, the Bodhran
do feel a bit strange or is it the
other instruments that inflict with the
Bodhran ? Anyway I´m so glad you had
the tenacity to endure the piece to the end
and am very grateful for your most kind
words ! Thank you David !

Cheers
Dani

Hi, to jump in late, I didn't care much for the bodhran, either. With that in the mix it feels like listening to two unrelated songs at the same time, and I like the other one better.

Listening right now, enjoying but I feel like I'm between radio stations. =8^)

Dani,

Always nice to see you drop back in.

A sweet love song. Nicely sung.

As others have said, I think the bodhran gets in the way a bit.
The rest of the track is nice.

Hi, Josie !:))


Thank you for your most kind
comments ! Romeo ? well not
me anyway, but flattered I am, really !

I did add a choice taking
away the Bodhran completely,
maybe I should have altered
the whole style at the same
time, but ...oh...alright
it is just what it is !:))

Cheers
Romeo

Dani,
Smooth song. I liked the version without bodhran better. The acoustic rhythm guitar takes care of the that inner rhythm smile Good vocals & mix. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Hi, Mark !

Thank you for your most kind words
truly much appreciated !

I did in fact take off the Bodhran
and posted a version without it
but am not sure it was quite okay, I think
there may still be some discrepancies
between the jig guitar and the country
shuffle ! hm....

Cheers
Dani

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.

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