Something Something bad must’ve happened last night I can feel it in my water; I can feel it in my bones Tremors in the zeitgeist; something’s not right Calling up my friends just to check if they’re at home I don’t want to turn on my TV Almost every day something I don’t want to see We bring you this exclusive live commercial free Voyeuristic coverage of the latest killing spree Something bad is going to happen for sure Bet your bottom dollar there’ll be breaking news today Cameras are rolling; they’re breaking down the door Interview survivors; take the bodies away I won’t surrender to negativity Open up my heart to possibility Open up my heart; I’ll tell you this for free I won’t surrender to negativity Something beautiful happened last night We came together in a meaningful way Misunderstandings all were put right Simmering resentment was all swept away I was amazed by the love you revealed My doubts were erased and my spirit was healed I took your hand; the bargain was sealed I was amazed by the love you revealed Something magical happened last night You told me you had something to say Misunderstandings all were put right Simmering resentment was all swept away I was amazed by the love you revealed My doubts were erased and my spirit was healed I took your hand; the bargain was sealed I was amazed by the love we could feel

Highlights for me: - Dobro at the start - Quiet part where the acoustic guitar solos (like the calm before the storm) - Electric solos (great tone especially the outro one) - The way the song builds gradually from start to finish - Vocal sound (doubling and subtle harmonies sound excellent) - Beautiful combination of RTs Excellent job!

The mix sounds excellent and the vocals and pickin' are spot on. We're really loving the point where the electric solo comes in -- very dramatic. Outstanding guys and we look forward to many listens.

Super effective at 2.15ish to go from that tasteful steel string lick right into that screaming distorted guitar. I agree with Receder, too, the dobro at the beginning is a highlight for me! _________________________ Will - PG Music

The write and the production are really well put together. You've both done a great job with this.... definitely one to be proud of. The line "Simmering resentment was all swept away" appealed to me. It's such a clever statement on so many levels. All the best, Noel _________________________ LINKS TO MY BIAB/RB SONGS audios on Soundcloud videos on VIMEO

And their tones are very beautiful. It is very favorable to keep rhythm with Tambourine only at vocal parts. Therefore, it is so effective when drums appear with Guitar solos. Leon's vocal is also nice, very fitted to this tune. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best Regards. Shigeki Adachi

Band-in-a-Box® - Boxing Clever - Sound on Sound #TBT

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® is more than 30 years old? I stumbled across this 1990 magazine article explaining the relatively new program, and think it's an enjoyable read for any Band-in-a-Box user - it really shows that we are always listening to user feedback when developing our program!

Read the article: Boxing Clever: Band-In-A-Box Software

A few of my favorite statements:

"The intention of PG Music's Band-In-A-Box package is to couple that speed and convenience with the improved flexibility of the personal computer. Versions are available for the Atari ST, Mac, and PC compatibles. Have the programmers succeeded? And can they rid themselves of the stigma of the auto-accompaniment section? Given the above state of affairs, the first hurdle that the program has to overcome is one of acceptance and, frankly, a name like 'Band-In-A-Box' is a bad start."

(I think our name was a great start!)

"The final results are, to say the least, impressive. Band-In-A-Box achieves something that most hardwired auto-accompaniment sections have never been able to do - inject a degree of feel into the music. It really does sound more human than so many of the computer generated pieces I've heard."

"...I'm quite convinced that PG Music will have a winner on their hands. This is one piece of software that you can get more out of than you put in."
