Is this a cool song, or what! It has a certain retro feel yet a contemporary flavor. Love the bass line and the drums in particular. of course your lyrics are always among the berst on the boards. lots of power ballad in the vocal. Sweet!
Wow! This is really good! Love the message. This is my new favorite of yours. Great backing. Love the energy. Can really feel the emotions of this one.
Thanks for sharing this one!

You've certainly pulled out all stops with this presentation. The arrangement and the production are powerful and your writing and singing sits really comfortably in this powerhouse setting. Energy beams out everywhere! "Dazzling" is the word that just sprang into my mind.
Your vocal in "Mercy" is simply a show-stopper. Truth be told, it startled the hell out me, because I never heard you belt out lyrics in that way, before. Jesus. You really opened yourself up.
The music was touched with glory, emotionally speaking. All the RealTracks instruments seemed to pick-up on your incredible inspiration. You better marry that woman !!!
This is passionately-conceived, near-overwhelming song-making, Mr. Snyder. Made me stand back to listen to it.

Killer vocal - your best, perhaps. Excellent production - one of your best. Nice mix. COOL song. Terrific Rock write - you seem to step that up with each new write.
I think I may be repeating myself from your last song. Which means you are notching it up with each new release. Few people do that. Impressive.
One of your best. Everything fits to the arrangement and one of the best showcases of an true emotional performance i've heard in a while. This is one of those songs that done any other way would have been 'wrong'. Excellent write, arrangement and performance. This one really transcends normal and is a keeper.
Good one, David. Congratulations on having been selected as one of the Best New Alternative Artists on ReverbNation for 2018. I feel this is an important acknowledgement because as a creative artist and musician, it is important for the audience to have a "brand identity," if you don't mind my using that term, or an identification of the creative force behind the production. The best way to achieve this is, of course, to keep listening to David. Thanks for the gifts.
David, I love how you pour it all into your performances..wish I could do that! I like how you conflated Mercy with concept and woman—I think that was your intent. Also, impressed at the completeness of your production...ready for release, no doubt. Thanks for showcasing your intensity!

YES!!!! You are killin' it!!! The lift from the verse to the chorus is EPIC!!! What kind of synth is that doing the pad/brass sound? Just a knockout song!!! Take care. Greg
Terrific stuff here--full of heart and passion. To me, it's got a little bit of a Counting Crows vibe here, with just a touch of Costello. From a production standpoint it's stellar. Just a thought, but I wonder what this might sound like if you kept it just a tad more reserved in that first verse and chorus, then build from there.
But really, you hit on all cylinders on this one. Great tune!
holy smokes david this is fantastic awesome vocal love it eric

Dynamic Vocal! I agree with Alan. Is this a cool song, or what! It has a certain retro feel yet a contemporary flavor. Love the bass line and the drums in particular. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Sorry I missed the comments on this. I listened about two weeks ago. Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this song. Super vocal on this. As always powerful lyric and backtrack. Well done

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

With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
