#240876 - 02/21/14 04:26 PM [User Showcase] The Dance Of A Man In Love
Registered: 08/10/12 Posts: 9483 Loc: Florida floyd jane Veteran Registered: 08/10/12 Posts: 9483 Loc: Florida	I'm not much of a dancer. My wife always gives me "that look"... Oh well... THE DANCE OF A MAN IN LOVE just because i've got two left feet doesn't mean that i can't dance i may be a simple man doesn't mean i don't feel romance fred astaire and arthur murray ain't got nothing on me when i dance the dance of a man in love and let my heart take the lead i don't know the cotton-eyed joe two steps are too many for me it's all i can do to walk the line so dancing one ain't meant to be i don't need to spin, slap my boots and slide or count to four while watching my feet when i dance the dance of a man in love and let my heart take the lead (bridge) we'll just stand in one place, hold each other tight while the world goes waltzing by sway to and fro while the stars do-si-do and the moon does an allemande right it's all just one big dance, you and me in the middle love's the only music we need when i dance of a man in love and let my heart take the lead just because i've got two left feet doesn't mean that we can't dance...

As I am one of those guys who just cannot dance - my kids call it "Dad Dancing" and you can guess what it looks like - this is going to be my anthem to Val. A great production and there you go again slipping in those nice m7b5 chords just when I least expect it. Wonderful stuff, Floyd. Thank you Cheers ian _________________________ Old Guys Rule.The older I get,the better I was!

Thanks for posting this work. We all learn by your excellent example. If you're anything like me, you were too busy making the music for other people to dance to to learn how myself. (That's my story and I'm sticking with it). _________________________ Donny SoundClick: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1209254&content=music SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/donald-gaynor BIAB 2021 w/current updates.

Registered: 05/22/11 Posts: 3477 Loc: Florida tommyad Veteran Registered: 05/22/11 Posts: 3477 Loc: Florida	Floyd, This is what you call smart country. Great lyrics that tell the story and make you think at the same time. I liked the observations on line dancing. I've always watched from the perspective of the bandstand and thought there was something very odd about that craze. Like Ian that one chord f#m made me sit up a little straighter and listen a little harder. Brilliant change. The only thing I didn't like was it ended too soon. That may be because I liked it so much. Another super job.

Registered: 04/03/09 Posts: 7785 Guitarhacker Veteran Registered: 04/03/09 Posts: 7785	Cool tune. I like the chord you use in the 6th line in the verse. Most folks would not have considered that. Nice choice. And yeah...BTW, I don't dance either. Not in any semblance of normality.

Someone else pointed out an unconventional chord change. Definitely caught my attention but worked very well musically. Beautiful concept, beautifully delivered!! Take care. Greg

As guitarhacker wrote that chord change in line 6 is unexpected and perfect.

Actually, I always thought Line Dancing made a lot of sense. You don't need a partner and everyone's your partner (and it's easy enough that even two-left-footer can do it). Women don't need their husbands to dance - and they can dance with their friends - which they'd rather do anyway... Thanks for the nice words... Robert - very nice of you to say. I appreciate it. Bob - are we getting close to Dylan's 41? Talk about resting on your laurels!!!! Josie - thanks. Herb - thanks.

If the strings are "right enough" for you too mention, then I've have to say I'm pleased... Dani - okay, buddy, you are going to have to come up with a new line... you've used that "one of your best" far too many times Thank you for that! Steve - thanks. Greg - appreciate it. every now and then you just have to throw in something a bit different, dontcha? _________________________ 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

Band-in-a-Box® - Boxing Clever - Sound on Sound #TBT

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® is more than 30 years old? I stumbled across this 1990 magazine article explaining the relatively new program, and think it's an enjoyable read for any Band-in-a-Box user - it really shows that we are always listening to user feedback when developing our program!

Read the article: Boxing Clever: Band-In-A-Box Software

A few of my favorite statements:

"The intention of PG Music's Band-In-A-Box package is to couple that speed and convenience with the improved flexibility of the personal computer. Versions are available for the Atari ST, Mac, and PC compatibles. Have the programmers succeeded? And can they rid themselves of the stigma of the auto-accompaniment section? Given the above state of affairs, the first hurdle that the program has to overcome is one of acceptance and, frankly, a name like 'Band-In-A-Box' is a bad start."

(I think our name was a great start!)

"The final results are, to say the least, impressive. Band-In-A-Box achieves something that most hardwired auto-accompaniment sections have never been able to do - inject a degree of feel into the music. It really does sound more human than so many of the computer generated pieces I've heard."

"...I'm quite convinced that PG Music will have a winner on their hands. This is one piece of software that you can get more out of than you put in."
