Well, some people asked to see the Freeway video, so here it is. There is a shameless PG Music plug on the end credits, as a heads up to you PG Music Peeps. smile

Thanks for all the nice comments so far. Hope you enjoy the ride. And I mean that literally. Greg, I will give you directions to 299 in a little while here. Redwood National Forest area dude.

Freeway

By David Snyder

Where I’m driving
It’s nobody’s business
I’m on the freeway
And I’m driving alone
Heading out of
North Sacramento
Every mile of this world is my own

PreChorus

And the sun is shining on my face
And I’m dreamin’ ‘bout you baby
But I had to leave this world
Cause I got some things to do

CH:

On the Freeway
That’s where I’m driving
On the Freeway
This world is my own
On the Freeway
At least I’m surviving
On the Freeway
Might not ever go home

V2

Looking for a place
Where I can feel worthy
Looking for a band
That knows how to rock
Taking with me
A lifetime of memories
Taking with me
My band in a box

PreChorus

And the sun is shining on my face
And I’m praying for you baby
But I had to cut these ties
Cause I got some things to do

CH

On the Freeway
That’s where I’m driving
On the Freeway
This world is my own
On the Freeway
At least I’m surviving
On the Freeway
Might not ever go home

V2 Reprise

Looking for a place
Where I can feel worthy
Looking for a band
That knows how to rock
Taking with me
A lifetime of memories
Taking with me
My band in a box

CH

On the Freeway
That’s where I’m driving
On the Freeway
This world is my own
On the Freeway
At least I’m surviving
On the Freeway
Might not ever get home

Rideout:

Keep on driving
Keep on striving
Keep the faith
Yeah keep surviving

Keep on driving
Keep on striving
Keep the faith
Keep surviving

On the Freeway
On the Freeway
On the Freeway
On the Freeway

David, the video matched the song perfectly.

Great work!


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Very cool tune David. Super vocal, backtrack and lyric. I got a Traveling Wilburys feel to the song. Guitars were super. The 12 strings wowser...

Gas pump in Colorado - HA!

Some of the best sound I've heard on a YouTube video. Loud and clear - did you do something different to achieve that?

Nice.

Hey Floyd,

Man it was the same master I put on Soundcloud. That went through a pretty intense mastering process.

I think it might sound better on YouTube which is strange. Maybe they compress it less or something. I honestly don't know. Same master, same volume level.

No clue.

Glad you liked it man!!

Hey David,

Your songwriting just keeps on setting new personal bests! This is great.

I love the structure and you've maximised using the format. The prechorus-to-chorus is excellent! I'd love to be able to accomplish the sense of lift that you've created. I haven't managed to find that secret yet, though. Any tips?

I was with you all the way. Once I got used to the car driving on the wrong side of the road, I settled back and enjoyed every kilometre smile

All the best,
Noel

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."
