Lyrics

I tried my best
To forget
But you keep coming
Into my mind

A long time ago
You captured my soul
Now I can't let you go

Love forever lasts a lifetime
Then you walked out of my life

Now I dream
Of our time together
Among the fields so green

Instrumental

Love forever lasts a lifetime
Then you walked out of my life

Now I dream
Of our time together
Among the fields so green

George,

Beautiful... It's good to hear you sing again. I still love your recording of my song "Echo" from a few years ago.

Really well done, George smile It's a very pretty tune, and I actually think the roughness in your vocals from the cold added an emotion rawness to it. You put some touching lyrics on this too, and they really compliment the beautiful music behind it.

Great job, and thanks so much for sharing!

This song was so lovely and had such a wonderful pacing to it. It have the song a very intimate, introspective feeling to it. I especially loved the instrumental.

Thanks for sharing!

George,

This is the first of your songs I`ve heard and I really enjoyed the simple warmth in the lyrics and your vocal. That slight waver in your voice is nice- reminds me of Roy Orbison.I hope you`ll post more.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

In the past, Eyes on Success featured an episode that discussed our company history and Band-in-a-Box® program with Tobin, our chief development officer, including how Band-in-a-Box® is even more accessible with the help of their JAWS screen reader scripts!

It's a great idea to pair the two episodes together!

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks

MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:

There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:

1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track

Review - Band-in-a-Box® 2023 for Windows is Overflowing with Features!

Dennis posted his very thorough Band-in-a-Box® review recently, where he dives into some of the new features added with version 2023: Sound-Guy's Band-in-a-Box Review

Read his thoughts on the Download & Install Manager, partial track regeneration, Playable RealTracks, Audio Editing, the addition of SynthMaster, the VST DAW Plugin, and more!

"Band-in-a-Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is, without negative connotation, a monster of a program. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. No DAW can do some of the things BIAB does, while BIAB can do a lot that DAWs do."
