Hello everyone, Here's our new song in the so-called 'soft rock style'. Any resemblance to the distinct sound of a very famous band of the 80s and 90s is sheer coincidence, haha. Featuring two different Darin Favorite soloists. No video for this one, just a nice picture. Hope you like it.

The guitars reminded me of 'Sultans of Swing.' Sounds nice. Enjoyed the listen.

your production/engineering is always so well done! I don't know how you get each instrument so clear and present.
love your vocal affection of "you-know-who" especially the line just before the guitar solo- spot on!

Anne-Marie and Rob,
That guitar is so very distinctive...
Super vocals on this. An excellent mix - nice and airy.

Hi Rob and Ann-Marie
that "quacking" Strat had me reaching for the split pickup selection on mine and got me grooving along.
Great song and if it has some allegiance to DS and Mark's superb style then - clever you!!
Excellent.
cheers
ian

Hi Guenter,
Thanks, Rob is a big Mark Knopfler fan and wanted to do a Dire Straits emulation, guess what.... every related track was available in the UltraPlusPack.
Hi Lawrence,
Thanks, each mix takes quite a long of time. We also listen to the mixes at both Rob's and my place. On top of that we also use headphones. But in spite of that, mixing is quite a hard job.
Hi Floyd,
That's right, thanks to Darin Favorite!
But we did some finetuning on the solo's.
Hi Ian,
Rob tried to play along with this soloist on his Squier Strat, and managed to get just one or two of the tones right, haha.
Hi RichMac,
Thanks, more to come....
Cheers, Anne-Marie

Good tune. I'm also a big fan of Dire Straits. This is an excellent mix all around. You guys are great performers and I always look forward to hearing you.

I like the Dire sound too and y'all used it well. I would like to see the lyrics since there was a word or two I didn't get.
Love your voices. A pleasure listening.

Hi Josie,
It's a good thing you're asking for the lyrics of the song, we will post them also from now on.
Here's the lyrics of All about You:
Love is the reason, I've been trying
to find out all about you
It's the same way, the world comes around
Between our eyes and our things
whether it's yours or it's mine
How could I leave you, loving you all that time
what ever reason could ever be good enough
Between our eyes and our things
whether it yours or it's mine
And in a while I'm falling again
You've got no choice in this,
you can't leave me
regards,
R & AM

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."
