Hi all,
Here's a french song. Philippe Janin has written the lyrics and he sings. The lyrics are not easy to translate. This song is about a woman who loses everything in her life. But she gets also lost in her lover's eyes and that's her way to get better.

What a cool band!

It's rare to hear a tuba nowadays and you used it well.

The vocal melody sounds great with the backing tracks.

Fun listen and we enjoyed it!

Thanks Janice and Bud.
The tuba is here to strengthen the Dixieland color of this song. Christian

Hi Christian,

As always a nice track from you. Reminded me of Django and gypsy jazz.

I do understand a little French, but not this song..(too fast singing) smile

Thanks for sharing!

Love it!

It makes me thing of of finding some old '78 records gathering dust in the corner of some antique shop, putting one on the gramophone, and being transported to another time.

Philippe can certainly sing fast and make it sound effortless - impressive!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Nicely done - the tuba fits in the mix perfectly, and I'm loving the old school vibes here. David's description is very apt and descriptive - this tune definitely puts me in another time as well.

Thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,

Beautiful. A real "French chanson" :-) . The lyrics are also beautiful. I don't get to listen to such great French chansons any more, lately - so thank you for the experience and, of course, well done to all involved!

Yes I though of Django also. You captured that era perfectly.

Adding that tuba was brilliant!


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
