Thanks to all the fine folks who offered their critique on my piece. I have taken up your suggestions and followed up with a re-mix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9I6-BK9ehoHere's a re-post of my original information: For the piece, I used "Power Tracks Pro" 2018 exclusively. I arranged, performed and mixed the piece; my friend Maggie Rose sang the lyrics. Created in my home studio in Calgary, Alberta. Sounds are from Garritan and IK Multimedia Vsti plugins. Verse 1: Morning comes and sings a brand new song, Music fills the air, A hopeless past to overwhelm the soul, Has no place to bare. Verse 2: Peace transcends and fills an empty heart, Bringing forth faith and love. Doubts break and daylight warms the soul, A new time's begun. Chorus: I don't know why I see light in the sky, When the journey's cold but He sacrificed. Making a way to overcome this life I will never be in doubt and hurt again, Love will win. Verse 3: Day time sun sets and brings on the night, Melody sings so gently, softly. Light eternal leads the path so bright, Hope for another day. SOLO Chorus: I don't know why I see light in the sky, When the journey's cold but He sacrificed. Making a way to overcome this life I will never be in doubt and hurt again, Love will win. I will never be in doubt and hurt again, Love will win. ©2019 by Coffee Notes Music

Nice work! I do feel this is an improvement, not that the other one wasn't good of course! Really stunning work - flow gorgeously and is pristine on the ears. That gradually buildup is truly beautiful. Thanks for sharing

I couldn't compare it to the original version...
But this version sounds good...
Maggie did an outstanding job on the vocals.

Great work on this Leeky, thanks for sharing this! I found this very easy to listen and I really dug the chord progression. The vocals harmonize well with the other instruments. Thanks for sharing!

I don't think I heard the original so a comparison is one that I can't make. However this is super. I really liked the backing tracks. The vocal was super as were the lyrics.
I wouldn't change a thing to this!

Hi Lorne,
This is such good listening! First class from beginning to end.
Maggie's singing is sublime and you've made it shines all the more because of your outstanding arranging and composing. As I'm sitting here listening, every aspect of the audio that I'm hearing sits really comfortably on my ears.
I loved the journey you've just taken me on.
All the best,
Noel

Lorne,
This brightened my morning - a simple, well written message with a familiar sounding melody ( nothing wrong with that!)and an excellent vocal from Maggie Rose.
Really enjoyable, uplifting music.
Robert

Band-in-a-Box® - What People Are Saying...
Wow, check out the latest feedback from Band-in-a-Box® users!
"I have one song I've been torturing over to get the sound right for quite some time and I merely keyed in the chords and what BB generated is awesome. Just what I hoped that song would sound like. What had taken me months to get right (and couldn't), the program could do in about an hour - AMAZING!"
"Great Ear Training Exercises! And I love that that you can set the tempo to whatever you choose. It's great for learning a tune!"
"A very good and easy to use musical program!"
"It's amazingly easy to use! Write a song? No problem! Add background sound track to a video? No problem! Put notes on a staff and have BB make up a chord progression and tell what key you are in? No problem! Start with a chord progression and have BB make a melody line? No problem!"
"Still the best practice tool I have found, great for running lines, improvising over and really helpful for working on song writing ideas as well! Good for beginners, and the more musical skill and knowledge you have the more you will get out of the software."
"I create demo songs with Band-in-a-Box, it helps me to get my ideas across to my engineer!"
"Been using Band-in-a-Box for years. Outstanding product from a great company!"
"It's like buying a Musical History Jukebox. It comes with probably 3000 styles and is like hiring session musicians to play rhythm with you, they even have soloists! It introduces you to so many types of rhythms that you other wise would know nothing about. "
"Paul McCartney said you gotta have a great band behind you. Well, Band-in-a-Box is my band."
"It's as easy as typing in the chords, choosing your style, instruments, etc., and off you go! Learning the tune? You can slow it down while you work on it then speed it up. My favorite analogy is a good chess program, which will play at your speed and level and is eternally patient!"
"I love my Band in a box, it does so much! Besides all the RealTracks and song ideas, it's a great tool to stay sharp with your licks. Social distancing got you down? Can't jam with friends? Pick out any song and go to the mixer button, there you can mute any instrument that's playing so you can jump right in and play along!"
"I love it. I'm a drummer, and Band-in-a-Box really keeps me on my toes!"
"The DAW plugin is really great. Trust me on this. I use it with Studio One.
"This is how I've been able to gig solo for the past 20 years. Band-in-a-Box is the great equalizer for us none rhythm players."
"Wouldn't want to be without it! One of the best things I bought in my life. Simple as that."
"As a songwriter I really love to work with Band-in-a-Box. The only limitation is your own creativity."
"I've used Band-in-a-Box for 25 years and thanks to this program and the advice of PG Music staff I've written over 100 songs. It's great software and amazing help to me as a musician. CONGRATS!!!"
Thank you for all the amazing feedback!
