#209029 - 07/08/13 10:28 AM [User Showcase] Can't Find the Words
Registered: 03/11/13 Posts: 11 Blorg Newbie Registered: 03/11/13 Posts: 11	This one's a little newer than my previous post: Someone on here posted a video a while back with some great songwriting tips in it, and I thought I'd try to follow as many of them as I could. This is the result... Boy, after not writing a song or doing any recording for nearly 10 years, you sure get rusty. Hoping my vocal technique, among other things, improves with practice. Here're the stats: Backing tracks created entirely w/BIAB v. 2009, style was POPH085. I didn't do anything to customize it at all. Just used it out of the box. I hope to be more creative with this stuff in the future, but there's a big learning curve for me here. Used Realband for recording vocals and mixing. https://soundcloud.com/blorg123/cant-find-the-words Can't find the words I'd like to write a song today Take all the things I feel and send them on their way I'd like someone to understand Someone who's suffered too At their own hand I've got so many So many words inside So many things I've never said But I can't find a way To make those words come out They're stuck inside my brain I need to rip them out But I don't know what I should say Can't bring my thoughts into the light of day I keep my feelings locked inside I can't expose myself I'd only run and hide I've got so many So many words inside So many things I've never said But I can't find a way To make those words come out They're stuck inside my brain I need to rip them out So many things are left unsaid The pressure mounts and pounds inside my head But there is nothing I can do 'Cause I will never get to talk to you Edited by Blorg (07/09/13 09:20 AM)

To make a song this cool right out of the box is just amazing! You've got a real Neil Young vibe going in this song, and I like it I've reached an age where my hearing is not so precise anymore, and I often have a time understanding lyrics. Many of the people who post songs here also post the lyrics. Makes it easy (for us... but its more work for you)

Last year it was released in early August

Upgrading to Band-in-a-Box® 2020 is Easy!

Did you know... anyone who has owned a previous version of Band-in-a-Box® is entitle to upgrade pricing - you do not need to have your old version installed!

Maybe you used to own the Windows version, but you now have a Mac... that's not a problem either!
(or if you owned the Mac version, and now you have a Windows computer)

In both cases, you would purchase from the "Upgrade from 2018 or earlier or crossgrade" row here for a new Mac version, or here if you want the newest Windows version. Just need to upgrade your 2019 version? Use the "Upgrade from 2019/2020" row.

When you purchase your upgrade from either of these rows, you will receive a complete installation - just follow the steps of the setup, and your Band-in-a-Box® will be ready to use!

PG Music Inc. shopping cart accounts were not required to purchase from our website prior to October 29, 2014. With that in mind, you may have to create an account in order to upgrade - that's OK! You'll still be entitled to upgrade pricing.
