Won't Bring Her Home A tale of love lost: Leon wrote the lyrics and sang. I sang a bit and played the guitar solos.

From the heights that I commanded All the stupid little lies All the hurt I trivialized Blame it all upon that damn y chromosome Won’t bring her home Won’t bring her home Won’t bring her home Won’t bring her home

Nice one!
Some very cool lines, I especially like the opening line "Yesterday I was a rooster Today I’m just a feather duster" and the closing line "All the hurt I trivialized Blame it all upon that damn y chromosome"
Lovely fluid and melodic guitar playing, just the way I like to hear it.
Good tune you two, enjoyed!

Clever write Peter. I really liked the chord progression and the drum groove. And of course the guitar work was excellent. Great write my friend. Rob

Peter & Leon, Who could resist that opening line? - brilliant! I liked the "won`t bring her home" refrain ( catchy in a foreboding way) and I always enjoy Leon`s vocal style. Then there`s the guitar playing; up there with your best, Peter!

Really enjoyed this Peter & Leon. You delivered something from inside the box but outside the square . Cool guitar lines, a bit of Santana might have snuck in there even, and all wrapped up with a top drivin' beat. Great effort.

Dear "PeterF" and Leon... The downwardly spiraling sense of despair over the loss of someone's love is vividly dramatized in your song, "Won't Bring Her Home". The music implacably drives home the finality of the situation. Leon, your vocal performance would convince a doctor that you were in a state of shock over "her" departure. "PeterF", your guitar solos were like licks of flame rising out of the pit of the private hell of a man who is so desperately, agonizingly sorry for his mis-steps on the path to happiness that he can't believe he did it to himself: "Yesterday I was a fool All the things I took for granted How did I slide so far down? From the heights that I commanded"Oh, yes. The guilt is as thick as steam. Sleepness nights and fatigued-blurred days are definitely in this poor man's future. I think it would be a good idea for someone to empty out his medicine cabinet and put a trigger guard on his pistol...don't you? Sorrowfully , LOREN

Hello, Peter
Very nice bluesy rock! Super lead guitar! As floyd said, sounded like George Harrison was in the studio!!! The minor cliché chord progression on bass is also very effective. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

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."
