Great work and thanks for sharing smile


Thanks Deryk,

I appreciate the kind words

and especially the strong understanding part,

I've written for so long that it comes thru me, if it's good or bad

it happens quickly and then I read it to see if it makes sense,

thanks for the listen

Excellent images lyrically framed & held together with a simple "Or"
Another good work, Kenny...
I enjoyed it!


Jim,

Appreciated

Prototype of a great romantic rock ballad ala Aerosmith. Chord progression has some enjoyable moments. I like the dry sound still mixed nicely bright, acoustic bass feels natural. Strong interpretation. Very minor distraction is that the transfer from the intro guitar to the vocals doesn't sound seamless.

Great love song. I think the somewhat sparse backing and slow tempo bring out and complement the fragility in your vocals. I'll have to play this one for mine.

My best to you,

Hey Deej,

Thanks for the listen, sometimes I put a little compression or EQ on the guitars, mostly

for this song I didn't add anything.

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.


Misha,

Thanks

Love that line too.

That intro lead guitar seems a bit out place to me. Too dry maybe. Later on it all blends perfectly. Great sounding drums and bass. Your vocal really shines.

This is one of those songs that you just fall into as it plays. Well done!


Hey,

Thanks for the listen and kind words,

I didn't put any effect on that guitar, I really love the player.

Great band...that bass is killer

Janice here:

As a true romantic I LOVE your lyric, Kenny, and your vocals and band are perfect. There are many mornings when the sun comes through our windows that I have those thoughts of “can’t we stay here forever and let the world go on without us for a little while?!” Soulful and sweet.

thank you guys so much for that, Janice you definitely made my day with that

Really spine tingling production.

WOW AGAIN!!!!! This song just oozes emotion!! Band is the perfect bed for a killer vocal. Even the drums are sad. At the risk of repeating everyone else, and myself, YOU ARE KILLING IT!!!! Take care. Greg

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."
