Hi, all my friends ! Been away for too long much depending on our trip to Spain and my moving to live together with Li ! Add to that that my recording gear does not work (an additional reason for my absence) and you have the reason for my silence !:)) This is why I chose to present this tune I wrote and recorded a year ago and have had in store because I was never really satisfied with it and had a lot of problems singing it but I just felt I had to post something in case you thought I had deserted !!!!!! (which I haven´t !!!!!:)) https://soundcloud.com/user-337827005/dry-your-tears-away-iiSo, here are the lyrics to Dry Your Tears Away DRY YOUR TEARS AWAY (Music and Words by Norman Wibe) I love you darlin´ will always do when I am with you, I´m not lonely or blue and you know that´s true I need you darlin´ that´s plain to see I wish you could be, here with me in my company I must declare, that I long to share all of my life with you only, my dear only my dear, I swear ! I long my darlin´ for you I´ll burn I´ll wait till I learn, of your return and I hope it´s my turn……. ...to hold you tight and never let you go,dear and hope that you will feel the same for me to love you madly and eternally sweet little babe, sweet little Li to cherish you when you are feelin´blue, dear and be you closer still when so you need to take away your pain and fear, my love dry your tears away ...to hold you tight and never let you go,dear and hope that you will feel the same for me to love you madly and eternally sweet little babe, sweet little Li to cherish you when you are feelin´blue, dear and be you closer still when so you need to take away your pain and fear, my love dry your tears away I am not 100 % sure about what I´ve used for Style and instruments but I think it was SURF. STY ( lost the original after numerous experiments) Recorded with mixcraft 8 on my laptop compressor and reverb added ! Please forgive me for this sloppy version of the song but as my gear does not function I cannot refresh it ! In any case I wish you all my friends a most Merry Christmas and a most Happy New Year 2019 ! Cheers Dani

What a beautiful love song! Plus I found nothing wrong with it! Your vocals and harmony are extremely nice in this song. Plus your backing tracks and mix are spot on, as usual. PS - who is that old guy with that beautiful young lady in that picture?  Merry Christmas my friend.

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

I`m also hearing a very good vocal performance of a sweet and sincere love song.
Your amazing singing gives me goosebumps every time.

Dear "dani48"...
Time after time, post after post, your songs re-awaken feeling of tenderness, of sweetness, and loving kindness in my soul -- and I'm a guy who lives in a world where, seemingly, men don't admit to each other that they harbor those kinds of feelings. We're only supposed to unveil those thoughts to women, usually.
Listening to "Dry Your Tears Away" made me want to touch someone, to wrap a blanket around myself and that "someone" and snuggle-up, to tell someone how much I love them, and then show them as much.
"Dry Your Tears Away" has a late 50's ambience that shows up most wonderfully in the golden vocal harmonies you fashioned on the melody, which is soothingly memorable. I hummed it as I went to the kitchen to attend to the dinner I was cooking on my stove. The medium-slow tempo combined with the dreamy instrumentation created and sustained a truly intimate and timeless sound and feel that was as gloriously romantic as a sunset.
I didn't want it to end, but it did, so, I guess I'll go back and drop the needle on the record one more time...
Thoroughly enchanted,
LOREN (a.k.a. "bluage")

Excellent love song Dani.
The harmonies in this song take me to Platters' melodies mixed with Beach Boys' sound.
Very nice.
Merry Christmas

What a sweet and lovely tribute to Li! It’s always hard to follow Bluage, as he is so eloquent with his remarks.
Congratulations on the move and your productions are as good as ever.
Merry Christmas!

Dani, I love these retro-sounding tunes you do! Some of the greatest music ever produced came from the 60's and you do it nicely! Great job on the lead and b/g vocals on this! Love those interesting chord changes also! Thanks, Torrey

Hi Dani,
Very, very pretty! Your retro songs always bring back fond memories of many years ago. I don't hear anything "off" in this song - it sounds great from beginning to end. At times, your voice reminds of a bit of Smokey Robinson. Great song and performance! Merry Christmas.

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."
