Loaded with muted power that bursts through on the title line. Chris' voice and EP carry the song well with the BIAB tracks pulling it all together. I'm not sure I've ever heard you play acoustic lead. This was just great here. Proof you are a player who well uses, but does not rely on, electric tone to deliver the emotion. Very much enjoyed. Hey Tangmo, I did acoustic leads a couple of times back in the AP days when I was doing those latin/rock instrumentals, but it is not something I do that often. Thanks, happy you liked it! Hi Dave and Chris,
A very nice song with a strong build up to the choruses in the final part. Chris did -of course- an outstanding job on the vocals and you on all the other instruments!
But given the drama in the song, I expected a more 'howling' electric solo guitar. One that cries out the misery. I hope I made myself clear on this. But that's a matter of taste of course, and no criticism whatsoever. That is not possible with such a good song.
Bye, Hans
Hi Hans, Well, a screaming electric guitar solo would have been the obvious choice, I agree. But, we have done many songs using that particular formula. For this song I wanted to do something different. Thanks for the listen and comment! I also got a strong Stevie Nicks feel listening to the vocal. Really nice work all around. The final drum fill fooled me - I expected one more round of the chorus after that. It really gave the ending a powerful ending. Loved it all - superb work all around. The ToonTrack bass is coming out soon? Dang, this is the last day the Modo bass is on sale for $99. Now you've given me something else to think about spending my money on. Hi David, ezBass was supposed to be released Q4 of this year, but I read over on the Toontrack FB group the other day that they are going to hold off until 2020. Thanks for the listen and comments

That was really good. Totally enjoyed it...and the video is well done.
Personally, I had a hard time making out the lyrics. If it wasn't for the written words, I would have missed a bunch of the meaning. I'm not sure if it was just my ears or the EQ on the vox, or the cheap speakers I'm listening on. I noticed this on an earlier song with Chris singing also.
I have no problem making out the lyrics, but of course I know what they are ;P Thanks for stopping by, Herb. Janice immediately commented on how powerful yet pure Chris's voice is. And Bud adds, yep, but it also has that slight edge that gives it a lot of soul.
This tune is a showcase for one of BlueAttitude's signature traits and that is wonderful dynamics. Outstanding.
And the acoustic guitar and piano performances add just the right amount of tasteful support.
Strong production in all aspects and a very nice video that added to and distracted nothing from the song.
Y'all are so consistent in quality productions and us listeners are all the better for it.
J&B Thanks as always Janice and Bud! Hi Dave hiChris,
that's just another beautiful dish coming out of your musical kitchen. Very soulfully sung, Chris, and I DO LIKE those acoustic solo parts dave a lot (like I love all your guitar jobs anyway).
A beautiful video with terrific sights, Chris, perfectly fitting the song.
Really well done, guys, enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.
All the best,
Stefan I'm happy you liked this one, Stefan! P.S. the video is pretty amateur compared to the amazing stuff you guys do! But, fun to do anyway.

Quality without being antiseptic. Awesome vocals. Great use of dynamics to build up the emotion. Enjoyed the listen.

The opening piano really hooked me in. And the minute the vocal came in, the song reeled me in completely. Once again, your guitar meshes in so nicely around the vocal.

Beautiful tune Dave and Chris! Everything sits just right in this one! The vocal phrasing and delivery are excellent! Chris always records top notch vocals on your tracks and this is no different! Guitar work is stellar once again Dave! Thanks, Torrey

Dave and Chris,
Love that opening—really pretty . . . and then that subtle introduction of the acoustic guitar—nicely done. Impressive vocal. And an expertly accomplished mix. Outstanding work!
My humble regards,
Deej

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."
