Haven't been very active lately, for various reasons. (We've been busy on the 90 dB 2015 Dive Bar World Tour, and preparing for the 90 dB 2016 Hospice World Tour) Hearing a lot of great stuff in the User Showcase. Thought I'd contribute a little song. I used RT's almost everything, but I've lost the original .sgu file, so I don't know which ones.  I love this program! Regards, Bob https://90dbband.bandcamp.com/track/cold-cold-worldCold Cold World ©2015 Robert Randall Burke/BMI City of Angels She's livin' in her car But this time next year She's gonna be a star. She's been waitin' tables In some old Venice bar She starts to think She'll never get that far. The old man in the corner Has been where she is now He'd like to give her comfort But he just don't know how. Oh, girl It's a cold cold world Yeah yeah yeah It's a cold cold world You put your best foot forward Keep your nose to the stone Give it everything you got But the harder you try The harder you fall And baby, you'll fall a lot Oh, girl It's a cold cold cold world. All along the Boulevard The street of broken dreams Where nothing is as golden as it seems A thousand nameless people Do a thousand closing scenes That'll never play On a thousand silver screens. The old man on the corner Has been where she is now He'd like to give her comfort But he just don't know how...so he says.... Oh, girl... It's a cold cold world Yeah yeah yeah It's a cold cold world You put your best foot forward Keep your nose to the stone Give it everything you got But the harder you try The harder you fall And baby, you'll fall a lot Oh, girl It's a cold cold cold................ world.

"A thousand nameless people
Do a thousand closing scenes
That'll never play
On a thousand silver screens."
Love that, Robert.
The whole lyric, actually... solid start to finish.
The build of instruments is terrific. Rocking! by the end... and super catchy. (I did want that ending guitar solo louder!!)..
A little Bruce, a little Billy, a bunch o' Bob...
I'm thinkin' I75 may have found their opening act...
Great listen. And it gets better with each one... Real LOUD.

I always look forward to your posts and enjoy your songs. You were the first artist who caught my attention when I first started listening here on the forum. You're still one of my favorites. Good write, performance and production.
Charlie

There's no mistaking your signature sound. Reverb dialed in!
I echo the things Floyd had to say. I too wanted the music up a bit, closer to the vocals and drums. Are those RDs? They're righteous.
Southern CA throughout. Solid write and a good story.

I love new and creative takes on old themes. I admire a
writer who can take a theme like this and breathe a ton
of new life into it. That is one clever, inventive and engaging
lyric.
That'd be enough for me to like the song but then comes
the vocal, the arrangement and the production that is
outstanding.
I don't want to define Americana but IMO this sits in the midddle
of that spectrum.
Classy!

#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.
