I'm such a sucker for old soul so when I heard this song on the radio I couldn't help but create a cover of it. I used a MIDI file of the song for the song and found the Texas Blues Style 12/8 in Band in a Box to create the rhythm tracks. Of course as usual all vocals are mine and the tracks are exported/imported into Sonar for vocal recording and mixing and mastering. The video attached is a short version of me singing the song on camera but there is also a full version of the song on my You Tube channel. One thing I like about BIAB is that I can recreate covers of songs I love pretty quickly changing keys so I can sing them or just adding a new dimension to the tracks. Hope you enjoy this cover.

Nice one!


My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.

Sounds radio ready (and streaming, cd, cassette, vinyl, live stage) to me... Nothing like the music from back in the day.

Enjoyed this.

Thanks Charlie but this one will stay in the can. It was just a fun experiment of a song I just wanted to sing :-)

Brilliant, Henry.

What a fantastic delivery. Reminds me of Billy Paul (Me and Mrs Jones).

You make it all look so effortless, but we all know that's not the case. Great!

Very well done Henry!
You have a great voice.
Did you also sing the backing vocals, or are they BIAB?

Thanks for the kind comments. I sing my own background vocals. I have to. BIAB background vocals usually do not work for me because they are just oohs and aahs. A lot of my background vocals are phrases. Just for fun you can check out this video of my new release. You'll hear more background vocal "phrases" which is not possible in BIAB. https://youtu.be/twFxTQ_FTdc

Another brilliant performance, Henry. You really captured the moment by associating it with fantastic vision.
Icing on the cake.

Yes, here you can hear that's you singing the backing vocals. Cool song BTW.
We also sing our own backing vocals, but we're 2, so that's easier smile

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."
