DC Ron,
Without any intention to offend you i would like to note that you did meet the bare minimum in providing details
however it would have been helpful and informative to us Band in a Boxers if you had typed out the words
and especially provided track data and you still would not have been spied on by the CIA for doing that .
Oh, and by the way i did enjoy your composition/performance .

Sure!
The tracks are _BIGBULL.STY played straight up, with substyle A on verses and substyle B on the bridge and choruses. The Vocal Oohs are edited in the DAW so they go in and out throughout.
I’ve flown around the world nearly eighty times
Strolled through ev’ry airport, savoring ev’ry crime
But the thrill that escapes me
When I think objectively
Is something that is really truly free
I’ve never been spied on by the CIA
I’ve tried, yes I’ve tried, in each and every way
But I’ve never been spied on by the CIA
I expect to find a bug in my lampshade
Or some cyanide poison in my lemonade
But no matter how hard I look
It seems I’m always off the hook
Guess it’s time to read another spy book
I’ve never been spied on by the CIA
I’ve tried, yes I’ve tried, in each and every way
But I’ve never been spied on by the CIA
I can float around Venice looking so guilty
Walk the alleys of Berlin feeling so filthy
But whenever I’m in Paris
With some beautiful French heiress
I get paranoid, slightly embarrassed
I wish someone was following me
I wish they were all shadowing me
Men in black suits
Girls in jack boots
Cars with all their lights out
Right around the corner
Look for a good hide-out
Avoid the informer
I’ve flown around the world nearly eighty times...

I like this!!! Clever lyrics. It's not often you see a rhyme scheme of AABBB in a song's verses.

Hello Ron,
Funny and lots of fun! I can make the same claim! Well, at least, not to my knowledge. You never know about those spy types, though!
liked this a lot. thanks for the great listen. Good luck.

Ha! "FBI" is definitely more appropriate for those of us in the USA. I didn't write the lyrics, but suspect "CIA" was more poetical, or perhaps better suited to the Venice/Berlin/Paris lines. Agree that the lyrics are clever and fun. THANKS! Very clever and fun. But better watch out for the FBI. Good luck.

Clever composition expertly executed and the vocals absolutely stellar. Everything blends so well you would never know as an outsider the whole thing came from software. p.s. Slightly amusing that you then put the british spy as the visual for your CIA song - I guess "MI6" didn't lend itself quite as well to the rhyming

[quote=IcelanderSlightly amusing that you then put the british spy as the visual for your CIA song - I guess "MI6" didn't lend itself quite as well to the rhyming [/quote] Well, the thought of Sean Connery belting this out in a Scottish accent made me laugh, so I went for the Bond visual. BUT you raise a good point: What rhymes with MI6 anyway? Hmmm... Thanks for the compliments. Wish I could take credit for how good BiaB sounds, but it just DOES, doesn't it?

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
