Hi, friends !:))

There was this time when
my love was bound to go away
for a while ! This made me
write this tune using the
following style and instros:

Style: SHOWERS.STY
Bass: 909, Piano: 912, Drums: RD:s Pop rock Basic
Guitar: 664, Synthpad: 1840

Recorded with Mixcraft 8 - reverb and compressor used
sparsely:

The Lyrics:

DREAMIN´LONGIN´YEARNIN (FOR YOU) Music and Words by Norman Wibe

Now and then, skies turn gray
as you´re not close around
and so blue, without you, am I
and I´ll be:

Dreamin´, Longin´, Yearnin´for you, my love

That is when, I hear you say
though I percieve no sound
”leavin´ here, I´ll soon be there, my love
and I´ll be:

Dreamin´, Longin´, Yearnin´for you, my love ”!

What should I do, when you´re away
that I really do not know
please, come back the fastest way
you know I love you so
Love you darlin´so !!

On return, I´ll hold you tight
´cause you´ve been homeward bound
for so long I missed you for so long
and I´ve been:

Dreamin´, Longin´and Yearnin´for you
Dreamin´, Longin´, Yearnin´for you

Cheers
Dani

Dani, another lovely track from you! I have noticed lately that it seems you are experimenting with introducing some new rhythm and instrument sounds into your material and it is a testament to the wonderful options available to us with BIAB! By the way I have enjoyed these recent tunes of yours! Thanks, Torrey

You certainly know how to create pleasant sentimental little love songs...
The style & presentation reminded of romantic songs I still enjoyed hearing...
Like those by Heatwave & others...
As usual... Good job!

Nice work on this, Dani smile It is very peaceful, and I liked the harmonies a lot. It is nicely catchy as well, and the vocals are really sincere. It flows gorgeously too, with a nice groove that pulls it all along.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi, Torrey !:))

I am truly glad for
your most kind words !
You are right that I
have been experimenting
with different styles
and instrumentations 1

BIAB is just wonderful
and there would never
ever been over a hundred
songs without this sublime
program making composing
such an easy task !

Hello Dani,

yes, they're absolutely right: You're the master of love songs. There's always the danger that a love song becomes a bit 'cheesy', but yours are always convincing.

And, yes, I can relate especially to this one, mow that my love has been in hospital for almost a month now and will have to stay there for some more weeks...

Very nice and touching, Dani.

Stefan

Hi Dani,

Smooth as silk.

I need to play this again when it's dark outside and I can turn down the lights.

Super vocals and harmonies as ever.

ROG.

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."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
