I threw a small challenge to you my
good friends regarding harmonizing on

got Lawrence Olivier to do a second
harmony voice on the chorus parts !:))
I do thank you Lawrence for your
excellent input on a part that in
fact was not so easy as one might think !:))

YOU ARE GETTING MY HEART TO SING (by Dani) © Dani Lindroos 2015

My friends wanna see me glad
they´re wishing me well
they don´t wanna see me sad
´cause they wanna feel good when I tell
I tell them I´m in love again

You know that it´s so, darling
you know that it´s true
you´re gettin’my heart to sing
and my chords to ring
by all the sweet things you do, yes you do

There´s love in the air again
every time when we meet
It makes me feel good just when
I hold you my darlin´so sweet
and I tell you I´m in love again

You know that it´s so, darling
you know that it´s true
you´re gettin´my heart to sing
and my chords to ring
by all the small things you do, yes you do

You know that it´s so, darling
you know that it´s true
you´re gettin´my heart to sing
and my chords to ring
by all the small things you do, yes you do
Darling !

Cheers
Dani

Hi Dani,

your present situation does you good.
I like that 6/8 groove. Nice chords.
Wonder if you find some collab. I would also like you doing your harmonies yourself.
Good luck.

Hi, Guenter !:))

Thank you for your most
kind words !

I think you are right !:))
There has been some interest
regarding harmonizing and it
will be very exciting to see
(or more rightly to hear)
what can come out of it ?

I thought of giving the
harmonizing part to all
my friends to check how
they sound together with me ?

There is no demands no pune
intended and if it does not work
I can always come back to the
harmonizing ?

Cheers
Dani

Dani,

Sweet song. You sound terrific on this.

(like Guenter, I want to hear your 5th Dimension harmonies on this...)

I'm sure wherever you land on this it will be wonderful...

You have created a delightful wall of sound, and I want to thank you for letting me play a role in it!

It was in fact trickier than it appeared upon first listen. The transitions you wrote blend the superb key changes together seamlessly!

Thank you again!

Always love hearing your stuff Dani!! Your tunes have an innocence and enthusiasm in them that has mostly been lost in the present day. You always bring me back to the time when I fell in love with music. Really enjoyable track, and great addition to have Gruverider. You really get around the forum and each mixture adds something fun!! Take care. Greg

Definitely want to see you happy Dani!
Something quite haunting about the song.
Maybe the chords.
Great job on the vocal and the harmonies.
Sounds difficult.
Cheers.

Hi Dani,

I don't think that there is anyone more romantic than you on the forum! Without any doubt, you are the songwriting specialist in this field. Yet another enjoyable listen.

Good harmonies, Lawrence!

All the best,
Noel

Hi Greg !:))


We do not really know how
best to thank you for your
kind and sincere words !
Hope that the tune speaks
for itself ? Now, you know
Greg, most of us belong to
an era long gone by and f.i.
I am still stuck musically
in that era (chuckle):))
Back to yesterday ?:))

Thank you Greg !

Hello Dani,
Flowers in your belly? A good song, and a smart idea to get Laurence in. The backings make it so much richer.
Think this will make my compilation CD for the holidays ☺

Dear Noel !!:))

We are so thankful for
your most kind words. Noel,
dear ol´friend I am a romantic
yes I do agree ! Every time
I try to write lyrics and think
that this time I´ll sure write
of something else than love
I seem to end up writing love songs ?
Why ? my mental gearbox must have
got stuck on a certain gear ?? (chuckle) !!

Dani, Your chord progressions always require me to sit up and pay attention. This time you did that with the time signature. Great work Lawrence! Smooth all around. I enjoyed it. Tom

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
