Hello Hans,
well, that's something. A cool idea that works very well as a parabel even for non-religious folks, I think. Very powerfully sung, oh boy. And all thet wrapped in a good rocker brought to life by a very well-chosen band. Hans, hats off!
All the best,
Stefan
PS: Gonna write you an e-mail soon

Well, I loved the lyrics, addressing one of the big questions of existence. Musically, I loved the energy but felt the drums were too loud. Nobody else mentioned that, so it must be just me. Nice work, one of your best IMHO.

Hi Ezekiel, C. Aaron (HearTolearn), Marty, Derochette (JJF), J&B and Captain Moto, Here you can read my gratitude and other kind of reactions to your so kind words and thoughts to all of you personally; I like this! Love the harder instrumentation for the chorus to match tone of the lyric. Good vocal performance. Hi Ezekiel, that are nice compliments from you. To tell you a story: I had the most difficulty in pronouncing the word 'misinterpreted', as in Dutch the accents in a word are often more at the beginning of words than at the end. After some 20 trials in my recordings I finally succeeded. That is when tone and music matched for me. I still have nightmares on that word... Personally, I like a song that makes you think about something that you hadn't considered. I'm not sure what was all changed but I do like what I just heard. Well done musically, performance and thought provoking.
Mr Aaron, thanks for your words. I had to read them twice, because of a connexion I made with the first and second line. I thought I hade done something wrong, but you were refering to my former versions and of course you hadn't heard them. "I had an idea of making a (Rock)song from the perspective of (a) god who had created Earth." Whoa, what an idea, and you developed it so well, Hans. Love the angry feel (if that makes any sense). Your voice is quite captivating. This was God's perspective after assessing his creation. Perhaps he will learn patience and realize that actually things are a lot better now then ever in human history ---well, that's how statistical humans assess it. Of course, that would mean good for humans and not God's creation. Enough of that... Your creation here is superb and cannot be disputed by anyone's assessment. Hi Marty, it had come to my mind too what you refered to in your line about God's perspective. 'The world is better than before'. In a way that's true, but then his creation was worse from the start (after the apple). And to wait for more than 10.000 years to get a somewhat better place...? I was a policymaker (once). If I worked like that I think I had worse problems than I already had. And I didn't had that time! But I enjoyed your little discussion on this and your nice compliments! Hello Birchwood,
Hello Birchwood,
Very philosophical composition. Why have created a hell when everyone wants love, the happiness of others but the rules are such that to survive, we must transgress our ideal daily. I appreciated your lyrics but also the melody and the arrangement which harmonizes well with your lyrics. Well done.
Kindly regards
Derochette
alias JaniJackFlash Hi Derochette, thanks for your philospical contribution to the lyrics. Like that! But to me, hell was a creation of men, not of 'my god'. And thanks for the nice compliments on the song! Amen bro'! Always been surprised he/she doesn't just squash us like an unwanted ant hill Our thoughts are simple Hans ... this is an excellent rock song. The creative lyric, your strong vocal, the effective arrangement and the cool tracks all work together so well. Love the drums and percussion. And it all sounds outstanding on our monitors! J&B What a nice start for a post, Bud (and Janice)! Amen to you too! And you are so right on that thought about the squashing. That is what we do with our bad songs. But that is why we aren't 'gods', I think... As I said some time ago about your 'famous' monitors; "I wished I could have seen that" and that still is the case! Have you danced or sang along? And a question that burns too; have you heard a trace of Lennon-vocals in it? I'm joking of course. Thanks a lot for your nice comment and compliments. Quite a bold statement made with a big sound.
Vocals really get strong at times.
I like the song structure a lot, makes it interesting as it move along.
moto In music one has to make bold statements once in a while, dont you agree Captain? And yes, maybe in this one I started to high in the hierarchy, but all for the message! I came to this subject, when I was thinking about the lyrics of course. And then I reminded a scetch from a Dutch comedian where he was a god on earth and was surprised by these huge buildings that barely had sunlight and where there were no children playing. These buildings were called churches. And so on... I liked that and so I builded my story. I have one question; did you mean my vocals were too loud? Should I have sung more modestly? Tell me. But thanks for yor comment on this song, Captain. I wish you all a merry Christmas and may we have a fantastic new year, Hans

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."
