Here's an upbeat number about a new love. All the tracks (except vocals) are from Band-in-a-Box. I mix in Reaper with their built-in EQ and Reverb.

I hope you enjoy it.

https://soundcloud.com/sam-buttrey/hernameisgolf

(BIAB info below, after the lyrics)

Well, I got a new girl and I'm happy that she's mine,
But she takes all my money and she takes all my time,
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F; her name is Golf
She came from Scotland to Augusta,
but we met in Pebble Beach
Her name is Golf.

I took her to the ocean,
I took her by the hand,
But she stays out of the water
And she doesn't like the sand,
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F; her name is Golf
When I ask her for three kisses,
She always yells out "fore!"
Her name is Golf.

Chorus 1:
She gets up with grandpa at the sunrise,
And lunches at the club with my aunts,
She wears a different visor, every day,
And very very brightly colored
brightly colored pants!

(sax solo)

Her eyes are scenic hazards, her smile is like the sun,
She bought those funky shoes, and got a hole in one!
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F; her name is Golf,
She's got lots and lots of dimples
And she shows them when she drives
Her name is Golf.

Chorus 2:
I spend a lot of cash on my honey,
I spend a lot of money on romance,
I buy gadgets and gizmos and equipment,
And very very brightly colored
brightly colored pants!

She's pretty damn expensive, but she's the one I love,
She rocks her polo shirts and only wears one glove,
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F, her name is Golf
She's a player and a swinger,
and I think she likes to hook,
Her name is Golf --
You know, the more I score, the worse I feel
Her name is Golf.

hahahaha. This is hilarious, Sam. Man, I gotta send this to some of my friends. "You know, the more I score, the worse I feel
Her name is Golf." Great lyrics, and the perfect melody for this. The sax solo us definitely the right choice.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Fun stuff.
You do need to treat the sibilant stuff in your vocal though. Maybe pull the bvox back a little too.
There're a few easy trick to avoid the heavy essing - sip water as you sing, use a poop screen and sing passed the microphone.


Cheers

Very interesting relation with Golf, Buttrey!
You made a funny song with this one.
And I agree with the advise Ray gave.

Now that made me laugh. One of the best typos ever!

{edit} sorry, the devil made me type that.

This is very funny. This is so good that I sent the link out to all of my golfing friends.

This is a super song.

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!

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."
