This is a magnificent composition and production. I'd say this is my favorite that you've posted.
The chorus really sets its hooks in you. As others have said, this is definitely hit material.
Stay in, stay safe, and stay off the beaches.

Very well conveyed lyrically and delivered musically. Thanks for sharing  James James - thanks for stopping by... Enjoyable U2-type of intro, soft verse leads to the powerful chorus with nice drums. The production is very polished, good use of loops adding nice details. Nice theme for the current pandemic situation, really anthemic and universal, I hope no-one gets offended when I say that this song should spread fast like a virus around the globe.
Janne Janne - thanks for the nice comments. As I mentioned, regarding a previous mention of U2... I don't know their music at all, so that reference eludes me... but it is interesting that at least 2 people thought that same thing...

Aced it FJ! Love everything about the way you put this together, performed and produced it. Really cool message wrapped in a love song. If I was still on the air, I'd play it. Best compliment I can give you. Josie - thanks for the nice comments... That's a winner!
Excellent song, well done and great message.
Thanks, Captain.

Dude, I know I posted to this song! What the... Maybe the corona virus ate it. Anyway, this is awesome (again) and I LOVE it. Also, thanks for checking in on me for a year. I am back in bro. Sorry man. I was tuning my guitar. Back now. Just posted. Thanks, David. Welcome back! Floyd,
One of the best pop song intro`s I`ve heard on this forum, leading into a vocal that`s goose-bumps good.
All the accolades are deserved- a stellar write,performance and production.
Robert Robert - I certainly appreciate that... That wasn't a good forum song that focused on COVID. It was a GREAT song, period. Well structured, great harmonies. That song should have legs. Nice work. JJW - Thanks for that. I was hoping that it would come across like that....

Stay in, stay safe, and stay off the beaches. Thanks, Scott. I do appreciate that. Staying safe is the best we can hope for... Great song - lyrics, arrangement, vocal, harmonies, production... why isn't this on repeat on the radio???

Mike Very nice words, Mike... Thanks you. We are hunkerin' down...

Thanks

Floyd, your vocals have always been so good but I've noticed that your compositions and arrangements are becoming more complex and just plain slick! That intro grabs the listener immediately! Perfect message for your listeners at this strange time we live in! Such a beautiful job all the way around! To quote one of your phrases "I'm a fan"! Thanks, Torrey

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

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."
