Hi, all ye good friends !:)) There is always something special with this old traditional that I´ve always loved so much. IMO this song is something of the most beautiful ever written. I am not doing it the justice it would require but then again there is the following story to it. Many years ago when my wife still lived we were driving around in Scotland and naturally we did visit the beautiful Loch Lomond also. Little did I then know that I was not destined to walk on the bonnie bonnie banks together with my wife ever again as she died a couple of years afterwards. I beg all Scottish and English to forgive this old Finlander for mixing both languages performing this beautiful song but have mercy with me as i was carried away by my emotions and the nostalgia that the tune always awakes in me whenever I hear it ! The song should be in the Public Domain, at least I did see it on a list of UK PD songs ! http://app.box.com/s/4vin9pmz8i4za78m6c1vbkh2tc1lpm3uThe Style is: CLAIRPS.STY Celtic Air Instros: Bass: 2489 Piano: 2365 Guitar: 1814 Strings: 2457 Strings 2: 51 Synth strings 1 Recorded with Mixcraft Pro 7 using Stagg Mic !

Dani,
This is absolutely beautiful - gave me chills... I loved it and think it's the best thing vocally I've ever heard from you - your range is incredible and full of emotion.

Hi Dani!
You told me in a PM that you aren't a classically trained singer, but I would never guess that from this piece! This sounds like something that would be part of an album made by a famous orchestra!
Like you, I love this song.. my music collection probably has twenty different versions of it, mostly celtic arrangements. Your version is quite different from any other I've heard... a very beautiful difference. More classic, less celtic.
I identify with what Bob said about the chills... (Although its so hot today here in North Carolina that I'd welcome chills any way I could get them)
Good song for you.. it shows off some capabilities we haven't in your other songs to date. You are a man who is just FULL of surprises! Keep it up!

GREAT!!! Like Pat we've heard mostly traditional celtic versions. You've taken it to a new and excellent place.
The POWERFUL vocal and production make this an instant classic.
Congrats!!
J&B
PS No problems with the public domain on this one my friend. It was published in 1841 and that makes it PD even by the strict US standards!

Hi, Pat !
How nice if I could bring some chills to you on a hot day !!!
Seriously, I have not trained my voice professionally but I have done some arias with one Chamber Choir up here
I confess that I wanted to show you what I sound like when singing with a breast voice and not, like in barbershop, with a headvoice !:))
Muchas gracias, Pat, para tus palabras bonitisimas !
Cheers Dani

Floyd nailed it! I always loved your vocals but had no idea you could do something so traditional so well. I know this song but did not know it by name. This is an OUTSTANDING (like I said, Floyd said it right) vocal-Awesome job!! Take care. Greg

Well done, Dani. As a half-Scot person, it's always been one of my favorites.

Hi, Guenter !:)
Dear friend, I do feel humble by your assessment though I do not consider myself capable of singing like this long enough to become professional ! I should have started some 50 years ago and maybe...
But, as always, I do feel proud for your most kind words !
Cheers Dani

Hi Dani
Beautifully done, It took me there my mind’s eye, every hill, valley, loch and village, with its little stone pub, where I can imagine this song having being sung over so many years. Pure nostalgia. Paddy G

Dani,
You have really excelled yourself with this arrangement and performance. This is my new favourite 'Dani48' song. Like you, I reckon this is one of the prettiest melodies around.
Superb work!
All the best, Noel

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."
