Happy New Year - song by cheryl anne

Hello Band in the Box friends,

Sorry its been some time since I last posted or visited the forum. I had another stroke this year and then had brain surgery. Its been a little slow going but starting to heal and wanting to pick up with my music again using Band in the Box, I feel good about writing again. My first song of the year, Happy New Year was completely made using Band in Box, no other Daw programs.

I paid and downloaded new 2024 Band in Box and wanted to write new song for new year for friends.

But then I remembered watching BBB videos and I really wanted to test out new chord builder. Who doesn’t want to learn how to better their songs using cool chords right?
So I got playing with chord area using the progression builder and had some fun. I kept playing the chords over, and then prayed for new song and this is what came out.
Sorta bummed I was not feeling my best and had sore throat, but its all about the love of the song and fun in creating. So I hope it blesses others despite my voice. Happy New Year you all !!
