Excellent song, touching, and well sung.
Loved the song structure and the absolutely huge sounding guitars.
The guitar playing throughout was exceptional and the solo was great and loved the intro.
Superb.

Great song. Polished performance.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

There's something about yellowed photographs and paper that I actually really like. I once found a collection of really, really old photos from over 100 years old and got to see some ancestors of mine through those photos. This was a really neat song and it made me a bit nostalgic for my mom's photo collection, so thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Ember

The 1st minutes is VERY bright and the solo guitar almost took it to ice pick land. After that minutes things seem to round the edges a little and the listening became more comfortable though, occasionally, the arpeggio guitar becomes a little brittle.
It's a lovely song and your personal playing really lifts the whole thing to another level.
Cheers

Hi Tom
I read the lyrics (which are very good) before listening. The finished product is a little less ballad and a lot more rock than I imagined while reading the words, but it sure works. Great vocal as per usual and the guitar work is super tasty.
Regards,
Leon

Tommy,
Really clean, magnetic rock sound to this—the opening is great. Nice build to the chorus, which is wonderfully written. Your vocal, which is solid, gives this a bit more of a country rock feel to me, though the base is solid rock . . . and that solo totally slays. Really good work, Tommy. Enjoyed this a lot.
Regards,
Deej

Tom,
Great opening. The acoustic vs. the big electric chord is sweeeet!
An excellent write. Nice chord progression.
"i wish we had a lighthouse something we could trust
pointing to safe waters protecting us
there’s times that all i wished for was to never be alone
Now i wish we had a lighthouse to guide us home"
Nice.
Excellent tracks - as always. Excellent mix - as always.
Your vocals are always terrific. Solid. Nice guitar work.
A joy to listen to.

Hi Tommy,
wow, what a blast. Just love it from start to finish. First of all a great write (which of us old farts couldn't relate...), the song itself is marvellous and your vocal stands out, wow. Overwhelming sound, very clever choice of backing tracks. AND THAT SOLO IS AWESOME !!!!!
Take care,
Stefan

"So I put that yellowed photograph
into some old metal frame
and placed it down beside her
so she can do the same"
Wow! This is a tremendous write and that slight edge of ambiguity about her throughout the lyric takes it to another level. All of the imagery is remarkably engaging.
And the arrangement is amazing. The build is absolutely one of the best we've heard.
Then we get to the vocal and guitar performances both of which are described by Janice as "passionate and soaring." Bud adds the words soulful and tasteful.
Man, that outro is anthemic.
The mix? We’ve run out of superlatives. Dynamic and polished with the perfect soundstage.
Well done Mr Adams! A showcase on the showcase.

Excellent vocal, too!! Marty pretty much summed it up for me I think. In addition the the write and the vocal, that solo guitar work is fabulous. As good as it gets I think, Tom, just top notch from start to finish.

Excellent song, top=notch production. I especially liked the minor chord that you used at the end of the verse "very first kiss"--gave lots of dimension to the melody. Really glad I checked in to listen!

Your writing sure has a cohesiveness to it. It's like every instrument, lyric, and production choice are really working together to say something. The lyrics have the words, but all of it is giving it meaning. REALLY well done!

It's a lovely song and your personal playing really lifts the whole thing to another level. Ray, after reading a lot of your comments to other songs I have come to the conclusion that you have highly developed listening skills and a fine ear. (Especially for sibilance and highs) My hearing is very compromised and I lost the highs years ago. I try to adjust for that by using Tone Balance as a visual aid and it usually does well. Everything is where it should be on the scale. I check my mixes with two vastly different headphones, Yamaha monitors, and a Bose system in the truck. There seems to be no doubt that you are hearing something that I am not. I value your input and have been de essing a lot of my vocals since following some of your comments. I will continue to pay attention to the highs in future productions. Thank you pointing this out and for all your fine observations. Tom. PS I’m just an old tele player that can burn the hair off a dogs ears at fifty paces!

Getting older is a subject everyone can relate to, here a well written image that won't yellow.
Great rock ballad sound and vocals.
Enjoyable chording, I especially like the one before the powerful chorus. Excellent solo and the rising ending is also very nice.

I love it..... really nice guitar tone. Insightful song lyrics.
This took me back 40 plus years to those first few moments when I met my wife. That first touch, that first kiss, and all the years we have been each other's lighthouse, and harbor in the storms of life... Wonderful job.
Thanks for writing that.

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."
