Sing Me a Song

Sing me a song cause it's cold and it's wet light the fire put on the ket – tle
There's rain in the gorge and a southerly breeze the weather's not likely to set-tle

A song of the islands a song of the sea a song for old lovers like you and me
A song of ad-venture cowboys and kings mountains and magic and marvellous things
And love me

At home in the hills in our own little world get carried a-way and ima-gine
Your songs are like windows in-to the soul you set me a-light with your pas-sion

A song of the islands a song of the sea a song for old lovers like you and me
A song of ad-venture cowboys and kings mountains and magic and marvellous things
And love me

Take me a-way from this damp dreary day some where we can fly on bright sun-beams
With wings made of song and hearts that are strong and spirits still o-pen to dream-ing

A song of the islands a song of the sea a song for old lovers like you and me
A song of ad-venture cowboys and kings mountains and magic and marvellous things
And love me

Rich, this is my new fav of yours. Wonderful lyrics and sweet tune. I think this works well as a love song but it would also be a wonderful lullaby for children.

Hi Rich.

A really nice, easy feel to the backing, which perfectly complements the lyrics.

A good mix.

ROG.

Hi Greg. Reggae would probably give a good lift to this. May give it a try later.
Excellent thought. Thanks for the comments. Cheers.

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!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
