#282513 - 01/29/15 12:14 PM [User Showcase] Melancholy Blues
Registered: 01/28/12 Posts: 3067 Loc: Murgon Queensland Australia Rob4580 Veteran Registered: 01/28/12 Posts: 3067 Loc: Murgon Queensland Australia	Just another love song guys. Please let me know what your thoughts are. Written with BB, Rt mixed with reaper. Vocals myself. https://soundcloud.com/ironbarkbob/melancholy-blues Melancholy Blues I'm not complete with out you. I cant succeed you know its true. With this lonesome melancholy blue. Last night laid awake I saw a vision of your face. I'm so weary and not sure what to do. Chorus You got me thinking while I'm in this state. What else I'm gonna do. Though my feelings may seem misplaced. I cant seem to live without you. I need to find some peace of mind. Stand up tall and keep on trying. For my baby feels Ive done her some wrong. I count the hours since we've been apart. I cant control my aching heart. Though the minuets keep on rolling past. Chorus You got me thinking while I'm in this state. What else I'm gonna do. I'm not complete with out you. I cant succeed you know its true. With this lonesome melancholy blue. I'm so lonesome melancholy and blue. I'm so lonesome melancholy and blue. I'm so lonesome melancholy and blue. _________________________ https://soundcloud.com/ironbarkbob https://open.spotify.com/artist/6IPuZM4B48Drnd38DEWC7L https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoXdTc0EC_3aaZSqT4dyzug Using Studio One.

It reminds me somewhat of the Sons of the Pioneers... Nice job on the harmonies. I especially like the chord progression and the way the dobro plays against it. You won't find an instrument much more lonesome and melancholy than the dobro, so it was a good choice for the song.

Just a note: when typing the words, try grouping the lines. What I mean is, place all 5 lines in the verse together with no spaces. Stack all 4 in the chorus the same way. It makes it easier to grasp at a glance where one is in the song. Quote: Melancholy Blues I'm not complete with out you. I cant succeed you know its true. With this lonesome melancholy blue.

As an aside and this is meant only to help you - posters get more listens and comments when they post one or two songs at a time and let those run their course before posting another. It's easy to get excited and post five, ten or fifteen songs on the board in a week but that's not the best way to get those songs heard by the most people.

You're great fun to listen to. And yes, it's got that "Elvis" vibe. Thanks for posting! _________________________ -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say.

It's that tight vibrato at the end of the phrase that's very signature. Vocal is very natural. I love the chord progression-simple but infectious. This is also my favorite of yours, although by next week you may top it! At this rate, you're going to have a greatest hits CD out by March first. Great job! Take care. Greg

I sort of naturally sing the way I do but not really trying to copy either, if that makes scene.

#TBT The Band-in-a-Box® 2010 "Plug-in" Mode!

Did you know... the "Plug-in" mode was first launched with the release of Band-in-a-Box® 2010 for Windows!

With the 2010 "Plug-in" mode, Band-in-a-Box® opened as a small always-on-top window, and acted as a plug-in for your favorite DAW/sequencer, so that you could Drag-and-drop MIDI and audio (WAV) tracks from Band-in-a-Box to your favorite sequencer. You could work in your favorite sequencer, type a progression in Band-in-a-Box, and then simply drag the track from Band-in-a-Box to your sequencer’s track at the desired track and bar location.

To learn more about the new features that were launched with Band-in-a-Box® 2010 for Windows, check out Band-in-a-Box® 2010 "Plug-in" mode feature highlighted in our Band-in-a-Box® 2010 New Features Video at 10:50!

The "Plug-in" mode development didn't stop there - With Band-in-a-Box® 2019 we introduced the "Band-in-a-Box® VST DAW Plugin" which now works DIRECTLY INSIDE YOUR DAW (Cakewalk, Reaper, Pro Tools, PreSonus, etc.). Learn more about this feature here.
