Hello, Janice & Bud and Floyd
Nice collaboration.
The sadness and melancholy reached deeply to my heart with janice’s warm vocal.
This song reminds me Carole King a little bit.
Though I don’t know if gin matches the heartache more than scotch, I agree Pascal’s comment.
(Still a melancholic song in this showcase, not a surprise because melancholy gives so beautiful tunes. This one doesn't make an exception!)
Enjoyed the listen very much.

Great songs as usual by you.
Very melodic, beautiful background and super vocal.

Thanks for listening and commenting. We appreciate if! J&B Hi J&B (sorry for just these initials, cause you prefer the gin  ) Still a melancholic song in this showcase, not a surprise because melancholy gives so beautiful tunes. This one doesn't make an exception ! Perfect accompaniment and Janice's nice voice recalls me Shania Twain. Sheers Pascal Hey Pascal, actually we prefer a good craft beer! Thank you for your comments. Janice really appreciated it. J&B Nice collaboration. Keep 'em coming! Loved it. Appreciate that! J&B As usual, excellent work. But if you're using the image ladder, don't all you songs have to start with There's a dusty old, dusty Bible laying by the bedside next to a half-empty bottle of gin?  Touche! But, and floyd will vouch for me I hadn't seen the vid back when I wrote the line. It's gonna take some creativity to start the next few songs with that line...particularly given that neither of us like gin  Glad you liked it! J&B

Janice Bud & Floyd
Love it!
Listened to it quite a few times on Soundcloud before you posted it here.
Already has that familiar feel of songs you really know well. Thanks Peter. Glad you found it on SC. J&B Bud - I really like writing with you. You bring a colorful perspective to a lyric - you have no idea how important that is!
(And I really like that girl you got to sing this!) Thank you floyd. I've learned more from you about songwriting than I ever dreamed possible. It's an honor to have my name and yours on a credit. Yeah that girl was driving by, saw a light on, and walked in ready to sing. J&b

I started copying some of my favorite lines but then I stopped because there was no clear borderline. This is beautifully written!! Really fresh, clever, and yet not pretentious lyrics. The arrangement is beautiful as well, and Janice's vocal-Yes, again I would say PERFECT!! Really wonderful collab! Loved it!!! Take care. Greg Hey Greg, thanks a lot for mentioning the write. I was happy with it and glad that fj was willing to tune it up for me. And Janice much appreciates the vocal thumbs up! J&B

Marvelous collaboration and fantastic music.
The melody is really impressive; the repeated passages with variations are soothing and make me relax. And your voice! I like the song very much.

I agree with everything that has been said, great vocal, mix, instrumentation etc.
You three have raised the bar.............again!
You should be extremely proud of this collaboration.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hi Janice, Bud, Floyd.
Simply professional whichever way you look at it.
I switched the video to full screen on the 47" monitor, put the lights down and and just lost myself in it.
What more can I say?

Wow! Is this good, or what??!!
So few tracks and so much music. What a treat this was to listen to. The simplicity of the music and the refined performance, particularly Janice's voice, is second to none. Great mixing and a terrific lyric. Nope ... doesn't get much better than this!

Did I comment on this one yet? Cant remember and too lazy to go back through 4 pages of comments to see if I did or not. Listened a couple of days ago.
This is just lovely. The piano suits the style and Janice vocal as always outstanding.
"Im'sick of TV" sure...

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."
