Just to tie the bow... SHARING AIR Here's the last set of posts after the mastering... http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=491002#Post491002LYRICS Sharing Air Not so long ago I had a lover And it seemed that nothing could go wrong Not so long ago there was no other I had someone with whom I belong Dreams have become nightmares Go from REM to eyes wired open Oh so little time we’d known each other Such a simple love you had to smother Not so long ago I had a life where Sharing air was something new Wasn’t long before that breath was stolen Suffocating déjà vu Not so long ago I had a lover And it seemed that this love could be strong All too soon we merged with one another Swept in the torrent too long Maybe if I stay inside and hide Or if swallow my pride Pretend it wasn’t you and It was I that had lied Not so long ago I had a life where Precious moments weren’t so few Wasn’t long before those times were stolen Suffocating déjà vu Not so long ago I had a lover And it seemed a love to be prolonged Not so long ago there was no other We were living lyrics for a song I know I talk of nothing but it And I know no one wants to hear about it Oh so little time we’d known each other Such a simple love you had to smother Not so long ago I had a life where Sharing truth could start anew Wasn’t long before that truth was stolen Suffocating déjà vu Solo Not so long ago I had a life where Sharing air was something new Wasn’t long before that breath was stolen Suffocating déjà vu I could recover

Ray… I enjoyed listening to your track and I found your video very interesting… Did I miss something? was there a prior post about this recording with BIAB information and the lyrics? I really like to read a long one… Helps me understand the messages better.
Anyway, production is first class and all of the live performers are excellent.. everything was well balanced, And in several spots I found your chord changes kept me listening closely to see what would follow. I’m glad I tuned into listen!

Loved this tune and vocal. Your video would have been a bit hit back in the late 60's. Could have watched it for hours ;-).. Well done..

Definitely has a 60s feel. It would be nice to have the lyrics posted as sometimes I miss what the singer is saying. Being a lyricist, I especially like to spend time on appreciating what the words are saying and the play they do as well as the music. Very COOL!!! sort of a psycodelic song, needs a light show in the video reminds me of ABBA or something. Interesting and a good one.

Anyway, production is first class and all of the live performers are excellent.. everything was well balanced, And in several spots I found your chord changes kept me listening closely to see what would follow. I’m glad I tuned into listen! Thanks for the very kind assessment. There was a thread based on the song post mastering. I've included the link in the OP. I enjoy reading along as well. I've popped the lyrics into the OP as well. The lyrics are almost accurate. Oddly Trudy didn't sing the changes written into the choruses. Since I quite like those changes I've left them in.

Interesting video, Ray... a lot to keep the eyes engaged while the ears are as well.. Thanks fj, I had prepared a much closer narrative match video but figured being too literal was a little boring.

I did dig up an old "lightshow" for part of the vid but it didn't translate as well as I'd hope so it was removed. I used to love seeing gig posters with "lightshow" listed near the bottom. The lyrics are in the OP now.

Ray, This sounds great to me! I really enjoyed listening and watching. The mix is tight and the overall sound is very engaging! I loved Trudy's vocals and James' guitar work, too {and, of course, Bandhi Nahbok's on drums! }. A fine listen indeed. Kudos to everyone involved. All the best, Noel

Hi Ray,
Very nice! And yeah, has a very retro 1968, or so, vibe. Nothing wrong with that! All the live players are great. The lyric and arrangement are spot on - top shelf. Video was really nice - emjoyed all of it. nice work by all concerned. best to you.

Dang hippies. :-)
Yeah, I like this a lot. I'm afraid the video wouldn't stream for me tonight for some reason, but followed the other link. I like that chord change...you know the one. I don't know what it was, but it lifted the sad vibe at the same time it made it darker.

James did the guitar piece twelve months ago - just after I'd done the basic tracking. I did have a singer lined up way back then but the recording didn't eventuate. Out of the blue Trudy piped in and offered to give it a burl. It was a well recorded vocal track and all I had to do was place it & boom. Bandhi did well I reckon!

Dagnabbit! Them hippies is chewing all our straw! Sorry about the streamer - Utub can be a cold bath sometimes. The chorus progression was written in 77 or possibly 78. The verse chords (?) are only a year old. Truncated 5ths to open minor 7ths are just an expression of my limited chord vocabulary I suppose.

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."
