Crazy for you I said I was crazy for you And I was; I was head over heels I don’t think the words are any less true Because time has changed how I feel Life doesn’t care how you plan it That’s just the way that it goes And love, well you can’t understand it That’s just the way that it flows I used to dream we’d grow old together You knew that we never would Love can be fickle, capricious and fleeting That much we both understood Dreams fade away come the dawn Vanish like smoke on the wind And life won’t turn out how you want it to be No matter how hard you pretend Life doesn’t care how you plan it That’s just the way that it goes And love, well you can’t understand it That’s just the way that it flows I followed my heart down many a road As often as not a dead end Lovers may come and lovers may go But we find our way home in the end Life doesn’t care how you plan it That’s just the way that it goes And love, well you can’t understand it That’s just the way that it flows We followed our hearts down many a road Many a detour, my friend Lovers may come and lovers may go But we find our way home in the end

Peter, Leon, Janice & Bud,
What a great sound! This has the feel of an instant standard / classic record.
Awesome song and arrangement, flawlessly delivered by Janice.
Some great guitar lines and a polished mix really bring it all home.
Enjoyed it immensely!

I am a fan of Janice’s stellar vocals. I am also a fan of Bud’s engineering techniques. I am also a fan of Peter’s complimentary guitar playing and tone. Leon usually puts in a word or two that twists the ear. In this case “capricious” . I don’t think I’ve ever heard that in a song. I enjoyed all that the four of you brought to this great collaboration, Tom

Peter/Leon/Janice/Bud...
So smoooooth. Everything fits together so nicely - such a flow!
"Life doesn’t care how you plan it
That’s just the way that it goes
And love, well you can’t understand it
That’s just the way that it flows"
A nice write. (And the harmonies on that part are cool!). Excellent melody! (especially at "I used to dream we’d grow old together...You knew that we never would")
The guitars sound terrific. Love the drum sound. The bass is buttery.
And, of course, there is that Star vocal! Gorgeous.
Great job on this by all...

Hi y'all,
aside from the fact that a song sung by Janice could never be anything but marvellous this one is really, really nice on all levels: Great composition, very appealing lyrics, perfectly chosen backing track and, of course, top-notch guitar work.
What a fantastic collab...
Cheers,
Stefan

If you took out all the parts I love, there would be nothing left.
I am a big KD Lang fan; and this could easily be a song of hers from every aspect of it. The choice of sounds, the treatment of those sounds, the lyrics and the melodic interpretation of them...it sounds SO good.
I know that's short; but I don't know that I can such much more than hasn't been said. Even the line "Love can be fickle, capricious and fleeting" has been mentioned.
1st listen had it stuck in my head. 2nd listen was MUCH more critical and came up with "seriously love it!"

Not been on the showcase for a while, Everything has been said about this song at this stage.
When I seen it posted I knew before hearing it, that it was going to be INCREDIBLE !!.
Real pro stuff guys it really is, but it is easier when you have an INCREDIBLE !!singer sing for you.
Magic !!.

Peter, Leon, Janice & Bud,
A great collaboration!
I entirely agree with Mike.
Nice song Peter and Leon, tasteful guitar Peter and great vocals Janice.
It reminded me of Linda Ronstadt.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Mike Thank you Mike! Janice EXCELLENT,
the use of a fabulous voice and delivery makes the most of this terrific collaboration.
the layered vocals are perfect for the theme and arrangement.

Hi y'all,
aside from the fact that a song sung by Janice could never be anything but marvellous this one is really, really nice on all levels: Great composition, very appealing lyrics, perfectly chosen backing track and, of course, top-notch guitar work.
What a fantastic collab...
Cheers,
Stefan
Thanks a lot Stefan appreciate the comments. Peter

If you took out all the parts I love, there would be nothing left.
I am a big KD Lang fan; and this could easily be a song of hers from every aspect of it. The choice of sounds, the treatment of those sounds, the lyrics and the melodic interpretation of them...it sounds SO good.
I know that's short; but I don't know that I can such much more than hasn't been said. Even the line "Love can be fickle, capricious and fleeting" has been mentioned.
1st listen had it stuck in my head. 2nd listen was MUCH more critical and came up with "seriously love it!"
Thanks for the very nice review. Peter

Touching lyrics and Janice interprets the story with pure perfection. Very nice clean mix. Interesting chord progression.

Wow - just wow - Janice absolutely nailed this, but you did an outstanding job on the backing tracks as well. The tune is stunning, and displays a strong sense of songwriting understanding. Perfectly catchy, and it flows immaculately.
I can't think of a thing I'd change. You should be proud - thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Deryk

Hi Peter, Leon, Janice and Bud.  This is such a wonderful listen. As I sat here with the song playing, I was reminded that this journey of Life, whatever roads it carries us along, is well worth it. Peter's guitar work is excellent, Leon's lyrics are inspired and Janice has taken his words and used them to paint a masterpiece of a song. Such a smooth and immensely engaging vocal delivery! I was mesmerised by the prosody with which Janice delivered the words. As I heard it, each syllable was perfectly aligned to exactly the right strength musical beat so that every phrase's meaning was optimised. By marrying this prosody to such a delightful and memorable melody, the song soared way, way above 'ordinary'. Songwriting and song presenting does not get any better than this. All the best to everyone, Noel

All the best to everyone, Noel Noel, Janice is very appreciative of and humbled by your comments. As I’ve oft mentioned 90% of her vocals are one take with no comping. She just sings like she feels them and it seems to work out. Peter is on holiday (UK) but I know he and Leon always looks forward to and are appreciative of your insight and support. Great song, great vocal!! Thanks! J&B

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."
