LAKE NAVERONE ON YOUTUBE

LAKE NAVERONE ON FACEBOOK

My family and I spent a wonderful Easter weekend at Lake Naverone in the Drakensberg. I wrote this song while we were there last year but this year I got round to taking some footage and putting together a video and I don't think I ever posted it to the forum.

Lyrics:
Its six am the sun is rising
The mist is floating on the lake
It lifts its veil long enough for you to see
The shimmering of the day

The first sweet moments of the day unfold
The quiet like a whisper creeps
Time stands before you hours come and go
And open up the space to dream

By yourself but not alone
When you're out at Naverone
Easy like when you're at home
Lake Naverone

You can’t imagine somewhere so beautiful
Could be outside your door
Nothing can take away those memories
Find the peace you're looking for

By yourself but not alone
When you're out at Naverone
Easy like when you're at home
Lake Naverone

Something deep inside of you says that
This is the right thing to do

By yourself but not alone
When you're out at Naverone
Easy like when you're at home
Lake Naverone

You pack your bag stop for one last look
Egyptian geese slip past
You sadly walk away with sorry footsteps
The time has come to say goodbye

By yourself but not alone
When you're out at Naverone
Easy like when you're at home
Lake Naverone

Beautiful chorus! You could have repeated it a few times at the end. It's just lovely.

And your harmonies are delightful.

What a wonderful uplifting song!

much enjoyed

Joanne, you knocked another one out of the park!

Everything about this is top shelf.

Your voice is getting better and better with each song.

A wonderful vacation I just took and I didn't even leave the house.

Super job!

Hi Joanne

I certainly have to agree with all the others. The song is as pretty as the film footage, which is gorgeous. We loved the several interludes with the mandolin - that really topped it off for us.

That's a lovely place ... it doesn't get much prettier than that. We can see the inspiration for your writing. Beautiful song and equally wonderful video. This is just so good!

Lawrence said it, and we totally agree! We would also like to add that we love the video that came with the song.

Some quite extraordinary lyrics here.

"The first sweet moments of the day unfold
The quiet like a whisper creeps
Time stands before you hours come and go
And open up the space to dream"

This song has a fantastic vibe throughout. The choice of instruments is perfect, everything just works together so well.

David, Yes, thanks, we did have a lovely time doing things like bike riding, playing tennis, hiking and playing board games that we never get to do when we have our computers and the TV.

Mario. Ha ha. yes I hoped to convey that feeling. It is the most beautiful place.

Al and Di - Thank you! I actually did record the song last year shortly after returning from our Easter break but this year I got round to doing the video.

Steve. Thanks! It was too short unfortunately

Rob and Anne-Marie. Glad you liked the video.

Tommy. It certainly does make you wish for more vacation time.

Beautifully performed, written, arranged and produced.

It's nice to see you back around the user forum!

Personalizing the images for the video was a great idea. It brings a lot of feeling to the lyric.

BTW, Janice and I watched a travel show on your lovely country the other night. It was very enjoyable as was this production!

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.

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."
