"Lost in the unknown Where destinies blend
Caught in the mystery As time twists and bends"

Love that! Bob I really like this tender ballad! The lyrics, melody and chord progression! It's a beautiful song! You just keep knocking out very good work at a fast rate! Wish I could do that!

Thanks, TB

Bob,

Another great offering from you . . . such a pro sounding production . . . just really good stuff. Beautiful write as well, compelling vocal as always. Floyd has it right . . . you should have one of those enviable careers.

Best regards,

Deej

Bob,
Smooth musical bed. Very good instrument choices. Excellent poetic, slightly sad lyrics. Well performed. Mix is clear and listens well.
Thank you for sharing.

Sir, you are a POET.

One of the most beautiful songs I have heard on this forum. The lyrics are extraordinarily beautiful and poetic, the music is stunning (minimalistic or otherwise), its calm nature reminding me of one of the more serene Preludes by J. S. Bach. And the performance is also heavenly ... that hoarse voice of yours somehow adding to the calm (on the surface, at least) nature of the song.

Bravo. Loved it.

Hi Bob,

A very touching song with those beautiful lyrics, the gray stars...
Very well done!
I'm getting emotional, so it must be a good song, Bob

Great work.

First what a great arrangement, especially near the end. Wow!

Your vocal gives the lyric an abundance of pure soul.

The electric piano is perfect for the open, airy and laid back mix. Love it.

We were gonna quote some fav sections of the lyric but Janice said we'd have to quote it in it's entirety. smile

That really hit home with us seniors ... another Wow!

Enjoyed it!

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe

This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
