Hi all, Here's a french song about the passage of time and the possibility to stop it with poetic writing. Lyrics are not easy to translate. Christian https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/narguer-le-tempsRD RockSouthernEv^5 RT 700 Electric Bass RT 663 Acoustic Guitar RT 1035 Banjo RT 1601 Mandolin RT 2033 Mandolin RT 626 Harmonica 1) Perché sur le dos d'un flamant, j'ai vu passer un garnement qui jouait à gober le vent, à traverser les nuages blancs. Sur un morceau de papier blanc, j'étale des mots, des sentiments. Je m'amuse à narguer le temps, en le figeant, juste en rêvant. 2) Les nuages blancs se sont percés et les gouttes se sont déversées. L'enfant joue à s'éclabousser dans les flaques qui se sont formées. Sur mon morceau de papier blanc, les lettres ont plu abondamment. Elles ont plu à mon âme d'enfant qui s'est souv'nu de ses dix ans. 3) Le garçon est rentré chez lui, le corps trempé, le cœur ravi, se jurant d' revenir ici pour assouvir ses folles envies. Sur un morceau de papier blanc, un autre jour demain m'attend. J'irai encore narguer le temps, en le figeant, juste en rêvant.

Nice tune. I know some French, but this was too difficult for me to understand.  I hope someone can provide a translation. Will

Thanks Will !
I've tried to translate the lyrics......
Taunting time
1) On the back of a flamingo,
I saw a kid
who was playing to swallow the wind,
to cross the white clouds.
On a sheet of white paper,
I write words and feelings.
I have fun taunting time,
by freezing it, just dreaming.
2) White clouds have been drilled
and it has rained.
The child plays to splash
in the puddles.
On a sheet of white paper,
the letters rained abundantly.
My child's soul was pleased
to remember when I was ten years old.
3) The boy went home,
his wet body and his light heart,
swearing to come back here
to satisfy his crazy cravings.
On a sheet of white paper,
another day tomorrow is waiting for me.
I will have fun taunting time,
by freezing it, just dreaming.

Chris,
Nice chanson!
The fragrance of French pops in the early 70 's drifts.
I do not remember the names of the singers anymore, but at that time I often listened to French pops.
It is different from your usual style.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

We enjoyed it!

That was a pleasant listen, even with no real clue what was being sung. Nice singing, clear arrangement.
Well done!

That's very nice...a little de-essing of the vocals would be good but not essential.
Always well constructed Chris - always.
Cheers

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."
