Have not posted and update since song 32; I am up to #35 in the 5090 songwriting challenge.
With song #33 I was trying to write a traditional church hymn, I added a break in it which would not be in it at church as the congregation would sing it straight through. It is entitled "Let Jesus Christ Reign",

song #34 is a bossa nova tune entitled "Romance in Brazil"

song #35 is entitled "History Lesson", I actually got the title from another 5090er song title. Her song was about history, but I have been watching the old tv series "Everybody Loves Raymond" and as soon as I saw the title "History Lesson" I thought about an episode Where Ray had taped Debra yelling at him because she is going through PMS, and so she ask him "Where was my tape recorder when" she then list off some of Rays failures, which include taping the Superbowl over their wedding video. it was with this in mind that I wrote the song. It is a blues comedy number. Feedback on all of the songs is appreciated! Here is the link to my profile

Robert "History Lesson" put a big smile on my face. I love the blues and this is one blues song that I think most men can relate too! I'm afraid to play this to my wife because I can hear her now "Oh yea, Oh yea that's you"!

Super song here my friend. Everything about it is perfect.

I'm not surprised that you can compose songs so fast but I am really envious on how all of them are so good! I wish I had that kind of talent.

Hi Robert,

Checking your list to see how far you already are with the 50songs contest.
I love the song: I will walk again
The arrangement is simple but striking. I love your vocal on this!

Regards,
Rob

I am now up to song #40. #40 lyrics are by Rob Meulman and he is vocalist on the song as well. my last post was at song #36.

below is the link to my profile, I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to post feedback on the songs.

**Note if you have listened to song #38 "Glory Hallelujah" before 9/11/2014 I re-compressed the vocals and they are now far more even.

**note song #40 "You Help Me Choose, Find, Love" Live"

I took the title from the lyrics Rob Meulman, Pg handle R&AM wrote, he took instrumental song #37 from my 5090 challenge "Rhythmical Whimsical and he wrote some great lyrics to it; he is the vocalist as well! Thank you Rob!

Robert, nice work on "I will walk again". Nice clean, reflective arrangement and I felt The string break was wonderfully effective. I think the tune would lend itself to many stylistic interpretations. I could imagine a contemporary group like Chris Tomlin or Paul Baloche covering this. I wouldn't mind hearing Third Day give it a spin too. Thanks for posting.

Re: Peace In The Valley

Robert,

Took a look to see how you were doing on the 50...
Looks like you are on track... in the home stretch..

This is a very good write. Terrific production - perfect for the song.

All very impressive. But the most impressive part is the harmony. Probably the best "created" harmony I've ever heard. That had to have taken some time.

I encourage everyone to listen - and read Robert's liner notes about creating the harmony.

Well done!

Thanks floyd for the feedback on "Peace In The Valley", much appreciated.

Created another harmony part for song #43 on the 5090, it is entitled "He Don't Change", let me know if I cut off to much of the kick drum. I put a hp @ 50hz on the kick and then boosted it by 3. I also cut the bass @50. All feedback appreciated!

Thanks for the feedback Rich

I am now up to 45 songs. Songs 41-43 were created using Band in a Box. Song 44 was created using Abelton Live Sounds, and song 44 was created using Song Acid Loops. Both songs were mixed and mastered in Realband. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to listen and share your feedback.

Hi Robert. Just listened to Peace in the Valley and man that is an impressive write and production. My favorite so far of your 5090.

I really enjoyed it. Good job on the harmonies too. Thought I heard a little Neil Young in there ..... ;=)

Hi Robert,

Blowing Hot Air sounds great, but is a bit short.
Like the Melodyne harmony effects in two of your other songs.
Good luck for the end of the journey.

Robert, as usual you did a super job on everything.

Blowing Air was something very different from you. Great job on that although I thought it was a little short.

Keep up the good work!

Hi Robert ...

I (Alan) used to do the 50 song thing ...but my other commitments (mostly deadlines for novels I write) didn't allow me to come even close to 50. My good friend, Kevin Emmerich, is a master of this project!

Peace in the Valley was superb! Nothing like good harmony! Nice write, production and performance! best to ya!

Hi Robert,

Bury me in Bluegrass is very, very well done!
It hardly doesn't sound like band in a box, but like the real thing!
My compliments, and also on your ability to create so many good songs in so little time!

Regards,
Rob

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."
