Short but sweet. We liked the sparse arrangement. Really
pretty piano and great tone.
It would make a wonderful video.
We much enjoyed the listen!

Thank you so much. Yeh a video would fit well but I would need permission from the lady in question 1st as she should be in the video. We intend to SKYPE this weekend so she will soon hear it for the 1st time. *gulp* laugh

I'm glad (I think) that this worked out for you with her....
I'm reminded of the country song "Thank God for unanswered prayers"....

Wow that's a song and I too see the resemblance in the lyrics, thanks for the link. I enjoyed that song!!
I am not thinking of anything past the moments we meet.... just as long as we stay friends now!

Alyn,
Very pleasant song. I particularly like the loops in the background. Sets a nice mood.

Just this time I'm going to disagree with Greg (who's opinion I respect and usually share) and say that I think it works well with just the straightforward piano. I think strings might make it just a bit too sentimental.

Will there be a sequel?

Lovely Alyn,

SD,

That "loop" was in the pad from the Korg M1 VSTi; a sort of windchimey effect.
Thanks for listening

Josie

Thank you, Glad you enjoyed the song

I really like the intimate space you've created with your arrangement. I think it suits your vocal perfectly. You don't sound like Tom Waits but you have created a Waits vibe to me.

Well done!

As J&B said, short and sweet.

Literally, and in the best possible way.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

I love this Alyn, nothing is coming as a surprise from you any more as your have shown that you can write songs in so many different styles.

Piano sounds great on song, and excellent vocal.

All the best

Hi Alyn
Love this one. Loved the harmonies. Did you sing them yourself? As the others have said. I enjoyed the arrangement. I am sitting on the verander I had to check whether the birds were signing inside or outside of my head.

Thank you for that, BIAB plays a good part in the realisation of the style changes, but my musical upbringing was varied to begin with.
Or maybe its my brain 'cos I see your "forum-name" as musi-clover. crazy

Yeh all vocals are me, I have never had quests on my songs apart from my cat miaowing on one, years back!!

That is nice imagery as I look at the rain pouring down outside.

Hi Alyn,

This is a terrific write. There are no better songwriting tools than Honesty and Sincerity and they ring loud and clear in these lyrics.

It's also a great piano Realtrack and I thought it was excellent match for the style of song.

A wonderful presentation!

All the best,
Noel

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
