Auld Lang Syne on Youtube Listen or download the song from my website Hello all I hope it is not too early for my annual Christmas song (only this one is really a New year's one). I am going away shortly so I thought I would get it done early. It is, of course, the public domain song "Auld Lang Syne" Realtracks are: RealTracks in style: 1825:Bass, Electric, PopModernGrooveHeld Ev16 075 RealTracks in song: ~364:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 065 RealTracks in song: 2780:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm Songwriter8thsBrent Ev 085 RealDrums in style: NashBrushBalDbKEv16^1-a: Snare, HiHat , b: QuarterHat, TripletSnare RT1757:Accordion, Rhythm Pop8ths Ev 085 Piano, Rhythm Pop16 Ev16 065 (Midi Super track) RealDrums-ModCountry16ths^01-ClHSSK,OpHSSK RT835:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm AltCountryRootsy Ev 075 Here is my (rather simple) take on the lyrics: Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and days of auld lang syne For auld lang syne, for auld lang syne Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and days of auld lang syne We too have run about the hills, and gathered up flowers fine We wandered many weary foot since auld lang syne We too have sorted in the brook from morning sun til night, but the seas between us have roared and swelled since auld lang syne For auld lang syne, for auld lang syne, The seas between us have roared and swelled since auld lang syne The road here is My trusted friend, and nearly a hand of thyne, We'll take a cup of kindness yet for auld lang syne. For auld lang syne are here, for auld lang syne, We'll take a cup of kindness yet for auld lang syne! Comments are most welcome!

You did an awesome job here, Joanne I can't believe how pretty this is! It's so gentle, and so peaceful. It's also definitely an earworm, for me at least. It's got some catchy melodies in here, and the lyrics are engaging and get stuck in your head as well. Fantastic work! Thanks so much for sharing this with us
Cheers, Deryk

Hi Joanne.
A very gentle and wistful version of Robbie Burns poem. Takes me back to a childhood when it was bellowed out in halls across the country at midnight.
Best wishes.

You did a really good job with this Joanne. It's hard to add much to some of the older PD tunes but your performance and the backing track made for a fresh approach. It's very pretty but has a slight" world weary" edge to it that really adds charm. Enjoy your trip and the Holidays.

Nice job on that, Joanne. One of your best.
Nice arrangement. Good vocal. Good mix.
I agree with my friend Floyd! You've really captured the essence of this beautiful song!! I always think of the end of It's a Wonderful Life when I hear this (which is one of my favorite films). Great job!! Take care. Greg

Hi Deryk - Thank you so much. I am glad you appreciate the more gentle approach Scott - Thanks for the listen Rich - Yes I remember that as well. We even did it at News Years growing up in Zimbabwe. Janice and Bud - Thank you. It was influenced by the James Taylor version of the song. Ember - Thank you. Yes I needed to get it done early Joe - It is a very different relaxing version. Go check out the JT version. He also did an Xmas album in a very similar JT style David - Glad you enjoyed the video. It took a little bit of fiddling around but I think it is quite cute. Floyd - Thank you. Nice to hear that you consider it one of my best. Appreciated Kenny - Thanks for listening and commenting Rob - I appreciate it. Dave - Thank you for listening and taking the time to comment. Ah Danny - thank you! Ever the gentleman. Merry Christmas to you too Peter - Thanks Greg - I dont think I have seen "Its a Wonderful life". Maybe I should go and dig it up. Thanks for the heads up.

Dear Ms. Cooper...
This is the first time I listened to someone sing "Auld Lang Syne" and provide the lyrics for it. Before, it always was difficult for me to hear clearly the words that were being sung, no matter who performed it.
Now that I've experienced the song more fully, it doesn't sound as sad as it used to. The hopeful tone comes through in the text and through your gentle voice.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Ms. Cooper!

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."
Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...
2024 is well underway - it's already Easter Weekend!
Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
Friday, March 29: 8-4
Saturday, March 30: 8-4
Sunday, March 31: closed
Regular hours resume Monday, April 1st - no joke!
