I’m tryin’ to get you off my mind, again. They tell me I’m a dreamer, that this love could never be. And now somethin’s tellin me they could be right, again. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. I put out the cigarette that I’m holding in my fingers, And now like the love between us, it’s crushed just out of sight. I know I’ll never hear your sweet voice again. I know we’ll never ever share another warm and tender night. Oh this café feels so cold, and I’m sitting all alone, I’m waiting for you, but you’re not gonna show. And the people who come and go, they could never really know How I’m breaking up inside. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. Everywhere I go I can see lovers walking hand in hand. Makin’ plans to be together, and sharin’ all they have. I look at what I’m left with, try to get my head around the emptiness. Is it all my fault? Am I the one to blame? Tell me it’s all a dream… a dream. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. Needing to hear the truth.

Is that you playing, or was that a BIAB part? Either way it is great. This is a radio song, I think. Sounds like a hit to me. Love the lyrics too. Very, very "real." Great work sir.

OP Mark Money Enthusiast Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 16 UK	Thank you for your comments Gianfranco - yes it reminds me of With or without you as well lol - it certainly didn't start out that way, it was much more of a slow ballad but I just love the "chugging style" and wanted to beef it up a bit, so just went from there. I think it still needs the the electric guitars boosting a bit and maybe a guitar solo but don't have any time to give before the contest end date.

To my ears, this composition is a very strong presentation on all fronts.... quality music! Regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2024 audios on Soundcloud

OP Mark Money Enthusiast Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 16 UK	Thank you so much for the comments Rec, Alyn, Robert, John, Noel -at times I get deflated when mixing and arranging a song and hearing it so many times it's lovely to have opinions from "fresh" listeners. ------------- Alyn, not being a "musician" in the typical sense BIAB is my dream software come true - I always wanted to "create" songs from being a teenager but lacked the playing skills. Noel, I love to mix and match BIAB instruments with styles as there is so much variety and I can pick what I think suits the song I am trying to make. It's beautiful to hear so many different variations and how it can change a song (think studio album, highly produced and then doing a "live" acoustic/unplugged version. BAB has helped me take my songs to a totally new level that I have wanted to achieve since the early 90s :-O It makes all the difference with realtracks! I hope to have more songs uploaded in the not too distant future - dying to get them finished. Thanks again guys!

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."
