Loved this tune Floyd. Has a different feel to it from your last couple tunes. Very cool beat to the song. As always super vocal, lyric and production. And my favorite your guitar is so good. Well done..

Anyway, I agree this song has a really catchy, extremely hooky hold-school vibe to it.

And I mean that in a really good way.

Really enjoyed it!!

Catchy tune guys!
Very well done.
I do detect an organ throughout the song, but I don't see it listed anywhere?
Or maybe it's a resonance of a combination of instruments.

Another listen on my beyer cans, it is just a bit of a delay on the backing vocals, sounds great on the phones.

Floyd, loved the swimming/water analogy! Great idea to express the lyric feeling.
Really like the calypso 'ping' sounds in the background, right from the start.
Very tight song all the way around, outstanding lyric, wonderful energy, excellent production!
As usual, a real inspiration to me to work harder, refine more, reach for higher quality.
Thanks Floyd!!

David Snyder..... were you referencing Gary Morris? Yep... I think I told FJ that years ago.... uncanny huh?

Yep...all in all a cool tune. Nice work.



Thanks for the listen, Herb. Gary Morris was one of the finest voices to ever hit Country radio...

When I listen through the phones every so often I'm hearing something odd on the harmony vocal panned left, "to catch my breath", is an example, as if it might be slightly out of sync? Or maybe just the fx you have on it? Maybe it's just my old ears wink

But, enjoyed the song and the performance very much.


Dave - I think I found the issue (an effect doing weird stuff). I've uploaded a new version (deleted the old one - only way I could figure to replace it). Let me know if you are still hearing something not right. Thanks for the listen!



Perfection! smile


Thanks for the re-listen, Dave...

Thanks, Robert. Janice did a great job on those harmonies - they really helped elevate this...

Floyd how do you come up with such winners, both in chords, lyrics and mixes, time after time after time?

This is another of my FJ favorites.

A new and updated vintage sound. Janice, Bud and Floyd continue to be a potent combination.
Enjoyed this one from start to finish.

Floyd, what a catchy tune! Great work getting such a wonderful sound out of all the realtracks used! I thought I recognized one of the Studio One loops you used here. Those loops in that program are pure gold if you can find the right one buried in there with all the others! Janice's background vocals are so nice, just sitting perfectly in the mix! You just keep knocking out great tunes and this forum community is in awe of your work! Thanks, Torrey

Hello, floyd

Very good rock song!
I agree with Robert.
Tight, upbeat... and highly marketable (in another simpler Top Of The Pops world!).
The combination of drums and bass is very powerful.
And the combination of your vocals and Janice's harmonies is much more powerful.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi

You covered a lot of bases with this one...catchy wonderful melody, older sounds, newer sounds, the fj high bar production stamp and, of course, an engagingly nailed lead vocal.

Given the high fj output it remains remarkable that you NEVER release any filler. Amazing.

Y'all always add the icing! Janice's harmonies on this are exquisite!!

Thanks!!!

Thanks, Rob. There is no organ - I think that may be some of the guitar loops from Studio One - they are "bell-like" and heavily processed.

Deryk, Robert, Peter, Janne, Josie, Kenny, Charlie, Torrey and Shigeki,

Thank ya'll for mentioning the harmony. It was a pleasure, as always, to sing with floyd. Playing a small role in many of his productions has been a musical highlight for me!

Janice

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

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."
