Tom Adams What About Me guess that we were way too young when we first kissed there has to be a reason we ended up like this back then love felt so good and maybe we misunderstood made the best of what we had it never really seemed so bad Now you don’t really love me You’re just hanging on to a dream the kids the cars the little house thought you had it figured out but baby what about me worked our jobs never talked we tried to ease the stress Alcohol we tried it all without much success A restlessness that never died late night movies make me cry In my dreams a secret wish Never to wake up like this Now you don’t really love me You’re just hanging on to a dream the kids the cars the little house You thought you had it figured out but baby what about me ©2016 Thomas Adams Edited by tommyad (09/28/16 07:46 PM)

I really like the way you set up the hook... very skilful. The sound you've produced here is first class and your performance is perfect for the presentation. I honestly can't imagine anyone singing it better than you. A really satisfying listen. All the best with the contest, Noel _________________________ LINKS TO MY BIAB/RB SONGS audios on Soundcloud videos on VIMEO

My only nit is that the drums, especially the snare, is a bit to loud in the mix and too bright. Other than that Good job.

Band-in-a-Box® Features List!

Every version release of Band-in-a-Box® adds loads of new features and enhancements to the program, which we're sure can sometimes get "lost" in your knowledge of the program's capabilities.

Looking to learn about new features with a specific release? It's actually really easy to locate this information!

Learn tips on the new version (2019) by visiting Help | Tip of the Day and placing a check mark next to "Only Show Tips for Version 2019" (you'll also need to select "Show Tips at Startup", if it's not already).

Access the new features list for older versions in the Help Index of the program - from the left-menu, choose Contents | Features and a list of New Features will show - all the way back to Version 7!

Band-in-a-Box® Tip of the Day!

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® will show you some helpful "Tips" when you start the program? What a great way for new program users to learn all the features of the program! Want to know Tips on just the latest version? This feature can be adjusted to just show the Tips for that too.

Maybe you're a long-time user of the program, and have this feature turned off? To access Tip of the Day (450+ available!), head to Help | Tip of the Day. Your Tip will appear right away - and you'll have the option of reading the Next Tip if you wanted too! Within this window is where you would also choose to "Show Tips at Startup" (if this is unchecked, you won't see them), or "Only Show Tips for Version 2019".

Here's a few Tips the program informed me of the last time I opened Band-in-a-Box®:

In the Piano Roll window, the 'Ghost Note' function allows you to view a single-channel, and see notes on all other channels display in light grey. This is useful when working with multi-channel tracks.

Want a bigger guitar display? Drag the bottom end of the Guitar Window to change its size, or press the SETTINGS button to set a custom size.

The Printout can use left and right MARGINS. This is useful to make printouts for small paper size or 3 hole paper that requires margins.

Edit | Nudge Chords/Melody. Let's say that you have entered a complete song chord progression, and you then realize that all of the chords starting at bar 23 are 1 beat to late. You can use this feature to slide your chords over by 1 beat.
