Nice song, Dani... nice vocal and harmonies.
I like the banjo. Cannot say that I liked the steel lead, though. It did not quite "fit" the feel of the song for me... but that's one of those "personal choices", as you know...
You ARE a machine!
Keep 'em coming...

Another nice tribute Dani.
The banjo was perhaps a little more dominant than other instruments in the mix. Maybe that was intentional though. The choice of Pedal Steel for the solo I thought was a little bit disconnected compared to the rest of the song, but perhaps that was a deliberate part of your design.
Great lyrics, great job as usual

Hi, Floyd !:))
Thank you for your most kind words !:)) I did not really like the steel pedal either so I did change the solo to a electric piano solo (don´t know if the solo got any better, but as you say it might be more in line with the mood of the song ) ?
Cheers Dani

Hi, Blues !:))
Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment, really much appreciated !!:)) Yes, I do agree it is bittersweet but it is a song with a positive undertone as I am slowly getting back to a normal life again, though I do not know how to compensate for that huge loss !!!
Cheers Dani

Hi, Trevor !:))
Thank you so much for your most kind comments ! I fully agree with you and Floyd, the pedal steel was probably too heavy here and so I did a version with elec piano solo too !:)) The banjo was intentional yes !:))

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."
Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...
2024 is well underway - it's already Easter Weekend!
Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
Friday, March 29: 8-4
