I'm re-posting my songs so I can update the links to my Soudcloud page... since all my songs have been deleted from the site I originally used. I will do this gradually so as not to overwhelm or be disrespectful of other posters.  Here's a progression I've had in my head for several months now, but I didn't have any lyrics. So a couple of weeks ago I come up with an idea for an "On Fire Love"... Which includes most of the clichés you could imagine.  This is not the feel I had in my head for this song, but after messing around with quite a few different styles... I decided this was a pretty cool way to do it.  I mention that because someone posted recently that they couldn't get BIAB to do what they were hearing in their head and it was bothering them. I'm sure we've all had that problem... I don't think of that as a problem anymore. I just let BIAB be a tool to help me expand on what I hear in my head.  Anyway just my .02 on that. I've listed the RT's below, other than that it's me on the vocals and my Telecaster "Trigger" on leads & fills. All comments welcome. Greg Drums-CountryTrain RT427 Bass, Acoustic RT431 Guitar, Acoustic, Strum RT428 Fiddle, Rhythm RT434 Fiddle, Soloist RT590 Banjo (Rhythm) RT2024 Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm https://soundcloud.com/user-813802595/on-fire-loveOn Fire Love ©2014 Words & Music: Greg Achord I often wonder just how do you know for sure I’m looking for a sign Could this be real or just another fantasy That’s messin’ with my mind I think it’s real cause there’s a spark I feel down deep inside It’s smolderin’ for you Where there’s smoke there’s fire I’m just hopin’ That you feel it too A burnin’ arrow has pierced my heart I got an on fire love for you And I don’t think there’s a way to put it out It’s stuck in deep and I just can’t keep From letting’ you know I tell you girl I got an on fire love for you There’s those who say the heart just will infatuate You gotta’ learn to read the signs They’re all around you it’s a chemical imbalance Of the romance kind Some times your heart sees clearly but your mind don’t know Is it true / Is it right I’ve struck a match for you now just sit back And watch our love ignite (Chorus) (Ride) (Chorus) tag

Greg,
I enjoyed this - a good toe-tapping song and nice strong vocal.
Keep the replays coming - there are lots of listeners here who weren`t on the forum when you first posted.

Greg,
This has such a nice tempo and energy to it!
Perfectly timed vocals (and backing vocals) too.
Cool work on the telecaster!

Love the intro on this! The way the guitar fades out and is replaced by the violin is really great.

Good work! Sounds like a "real" band that's spent some time together. Cool, write, vocals and guitar picking. Loving your guitar tone also.
Nice!!!

Anthony, Thanks for taking the time to listen... On a song like this we'll call it a fiddle. Robert, Thanks. I do have a few more (ok more than a few) I'll be gradually posting. Trev & Bob, Thanks so much for the nice words. Rob & Anne-Marie, Thank you so much and for the guitar compliment too! Floyd, Thanks buddy. Trigger gets all the credit!

Hey Greg!
That's a very infectious toe-tapping groove! It's fantastic. You created a really top notch sound here and it accompanies your stellar performance perfectly!
Really enjoyed it!

#TipTuesday - The Band-in-a-Box® 2020 Feature Browser
Don't forget about the new Feature Browser added to Band-in-a-Box® 2020 for Mac! (and Windows)
This feature is GREAT to help you locate a feature within the program!
How does it work? Access this feature by clicking on the [?] button on the main screen of the program or pressing the / Enter keys on the Chord Sheet. This dialog lists many features of the program and allows you to browse them, find the feature by text filter, read descriptions about the feature, find how to launch the feature, access to the online information or video about the feature, and do more.
Examples of a few situations where this feature is helpful:
-You know about a feature but don't know how to find it. Just type a part of the feature name and you'll see the hotkeys, menu, and toolbar info on how to launch it. For example, if you want to launch the Chord Builder but don’t know how to do it, type "builder" in the text filter, and you will quickly find the Chord Builder.
-You are exploring available features for Band-in-a-Box. For example, if you are a guitar player, type the word "guitar" and you'll see what's available.
-You prefer "one-stop-shopping" and would like to launch features from the same dialog.

#TBT Band-in-a-Box® 2017
Three years ago we were just rounding up our BETA testers to help finish up the testing of our Band-in-a-Box® 2017 for Mac!
With that version, we redesigned the main screen GUI, added support for popular .SFZ sound format as well as PG Music’s Hi-Q sounds (sforzando SFZ Synth.), added Natural Arrangements options and Hi-Q Guitar RealCharts, applied many, many, many enhancements to the existing powerful program features, and more! Read all about Band-in-a-Box® 2017 here.
Now, three years later, we're thrilled to say that we're already done BETA testing, and weeks into the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2020 for Mac release! Of course, that means we're having a SALE on Upgrade packages, but only until April 30th!
Band-in-a-Box® - Trombone RealTracks!
Welcome to the Team David!
We are thrilled to say that we've added David to our Customer Service Team here at PG Music!
You may have already noticed him - he's already made his appearance here on the Forums, chiming in with assistance and User Showcase Song Feedback.
Welcome to the team David!
