It's the little things The little things That can make a pauper Feel just like a king It's the little things The little things That make the biggest difference in the world.

HI Bob ...
Happy anniversary to you and Penelope!!!
This reminds me of something Ed Bruce would have done in the late 80's. His voice is deeper than yours, but you have a lot of similarities otherwise.
Pretty song! Simple but enough of everything without a lot of stuff to distract from the great vocal and the message. We loved it!
Alan & Di

A terrific write, Robert...
You are a master at painting perfect pictures in so few words. This fits our story as well as it does yours (though ours took place on the East Coast - Florida to Philly)...
Happy Anniversary!
How about letting Penelope play bass on one of these?.... (does she sing???)
I like it!

It's a great day when all the little things come together -
Both in song and in life.
No little thing here, just another top notch song.
Happy Anniversary.

Hi Bob.
Another country classic!
Great choice of instruments and I always like the way you get so much emotion into the vocals.
Perfect arrangement and mix.

"It's the little things
The little things
That can make a pauper
Feel just like a king
It's the little things
The little things
That make the biggest difference in the world."
Amen....something the two of us have
lived for 35 years.
This is a wonderfully arranged, produced and sung
tribute that we both enjoyed...a lot.

#TBT Band-in-a-Box Finds!
I don't know about everyone here, but now that I've settled in to our "new normal" I've taken to rearranging and dusting off many things in order to keep busy and productive!
I'm picking up old hobbies, picking up clutter around the house, and as it turns out - finding forgotten picks!
We snagged these gems many, many, many years ago after The NAMM Show one winter. Check out the old Band-in-a-Box logo! Click here...
Have any of you come across something nostalgic like this these days? Let's see it!
(remember the first Audiophile version?!)

#TipTuesday - Style Changes in Band-in-a-Box®
Head to our Tips & Tricks forum to read what other Band-in-a-Box users have discovered about the program!
Like mrgeeze's recent post Style Changes within a song.. another great BIAB feature.
...My arrangement's bass Real Track was 397 (bass Acoustic Paul).
Solid but not really what I wanted for a solo.
I hit the F5 key to bring up bar setting and poked around till i found the Real Tracks command button in the upper right.
Clicked on that & quickly change the bass to 452 (Soloist (bluesy).
12 bars later I did the same and switched it back to 397.
The results were excellent...
