The attention to detail not only in the write but also in the arrangement and production is a hallmark in all your songs. I expect we are in for a lot more of these musical gems in 2019. Outstanding job, Tom


I appreciate all of that, Tom - coming from someone how also pays a lot of attention to detail in their writes, arrangements and productions... Thanks!!

Nothing I'd change here - thanks for sharing smile


Thanks for dropping by, Deryk!!

I completely agree with Rob.
What a great title and hook. You always have this talent for putting a new and original slant onto a heartbreak story.
And I also completely agree with HearToLearn.
The rhymes you build is wonderful.
And super vocal as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hey floyd,

According to Soundcloud, I first listened to this song 2 months ago. After I listened, I set the song aside to come back and write a couple of thoughts... Where did all that time go?

As late as late can be, here are those thoughts smile

What first grabbed my attention here is how you've use the rhyme scheme for the limerick, i.e. AABBA, to present the verses. A long time ago, I read in a songwriting book that this rhyme scheme is a good one if humour is required. At the time I read that, I didn't agree because, for me at least, the humour in limericks is about the words and the rhyme scheme is just how that word content is delivered.

For example...

  • A writer of songs named floyd
    Had wonderful skills he employed
    And he delivered his words
    As if they were chauffeured
    And all who heard them, enjoyed

While the above maybe creates a small smile, I'm pretty certain that that's not due to the rhyme scheme. (If my students at school heard or read this, they would definitely groan!)

What you've shown us all in "Raining Whisky" is that the AABBA rhyme scheme presents serious lyrics with pizzazz. It also flows along well.

All the best,
Noel

Well,

It looks like I missed this one when you posted it. It's a sad day to miss a new Floyd Jane song. Your professionalism shines on this in every aspect. It's a rhyming scheme I used to use a lot, but not too much recently. Maybe I need to rethink that.

Love the higher EQ accent on the drums in the chorus - it's a great drum track! Typing through a smile. I like that!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
