Dave,
A very powerful write and a very powerful performance and presentation.
The piano/organ combination works really well for this. Nice production and mix. The "touch of fiddle", works well, too...
Seems like you have quickly "gotten comfortable" with the BAND!
Well done.

Hey Floyd, Thx as always for listening. I am definitely getting a better understanding of how powerful BIAB is. I am enjoying it and appreciate you recommending it to me. It has definitely opened up alot of possibilities. Appreciate your thoughts on this tune. I actually have a version with just vocal and piano which is how I originally envisioned it when I wrote it in 2013, but didn’t have any real piano chops. Very cool to hear it like I initially wanted. Dave

A strong and emotional write, great performance
Florida is well represented on these forums by
really good songwriters!
I love the sparse backing, it's my "go to" very often
good storytelling, it put me in the "Lord save me from this fate"
frame of mind.
Kenny Thank you very much for the comments Kenny it is greatly appreciated. Dave

POWERFUL, riveting, passionate!!! Beautifully done. I would not change a thing about this. BTW, is the piano an RT? I'd like to check that one out. My mom is 87 and this pretty much describes her life. It is difficult to watch. Fortunately her pain is relatively mild most of the time but there is so little there for her that I wonder how she pushes on. GREAT work here!! Take care. Greg Thank you very much for your comments Greg. I am sorry to hear about the issue your mother is dealing with. I hope things improve. The piano is RT. I tried to edit the initial post with the tracks but I couldn't seem to edit it, so I am going to post here ... This song was done with all RT's in BIAB, aside from my vocal. It is in the Key of G 80 BPM Style is _QUASAR.STY: Quasar Minimal Moden Pop Ballad Piano is 2693:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm ModernPop16thsMike Ev16075 Organ is 2592:Organ, Rhythm ModernPopSlowMike Ev075 Bass is -2475:Bass, Acoustic, HeldSimple Ev085 Drums are RealDrums-NashvilleBrushesBalladPushEv16: a: Sidestick, Brushes b: brushes Fiddle is 1760 Fiddle, Background Pop 16 Ev85 Hope that helps

A strong composition.

Hello, GocartMoz
Really strong vocal!
Your interpretation is so emotional.
I like Pre-chorus part the most.
That part proceeds with the E minor key, and it is very good it resolves with E major only at the end.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

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."
