Hi Deej56,

Nice declaration of love through your lyrics. It's soft and the cello brings more. Your voice transcribes your feelings. Well done.

Kindly regards

Very nice Deej! Reminiscent of some early Beatles! Touching song with an excellent vocal (you always deliver in that department)! I heard nothing that seemed out of place to me in this! Great song! Thanks, T

Deej,
Nice romantic tune. Straight out, it reminded me of Ray Peterson "Tell Laura I Love Her". Vocal intonations? Subject? Production?
In good way, I am a fan of R.Peterson smile
Solid write! Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Great intro that catches the interest immediately.
The start of the verse reminds me Elvis song Always On My Mind.
Beautiful chording reflects the emotions in the lyrics nicely. Interesting story, sad verses and chorus end in the positive "I'm all right now" feeling, although there's some uncertainty about it, because "You" is not personalized in any way and the word "somehow" at the end leaves the listener wondering.
Very enjoyable vocals once again. Very good band, the violin is an excellent choice and the guitar solo blends in nicely.

Deej, it is always a joy to hear your vocals. This time it is even more so because of the great write. The excellent chord progression and melody certainly echoes the Beatles and that is a fantastic place to land. Tom

Hi Deej ...

I'm always drawn to your vocals. You have a uniquely fabulous vocal talent - I love listening to you sing! But this song has it all. As previously mentioned, simple approach, excellent lyric, fabulous vocal, splendid arrangement and a great band.

I've been a professional guitarist for many, many years - got paid way too much (but that's OK!) for my talent. Don't sell yourself short ... your acoustic lead sounded just fine. - you even git in that 5th (augmented) note!

Totally loved it! Best to you. Take care ...

Alan

Wonderful write!
Great lyrics and a melody like sweet syrup dripping down a well prepared dessert that compliments the meal.

As always love your vocals.

Emotional lyrics carry this song with feeling.

A quality production. The cello adds the perfect backing.

Derochette, Torrey, Misha, Janne, Tommy, TuneMonger, Alan, Ed, Moto and VideoTrack:

Thanks all for the listens and kind words. I was glad to have the chance to do a BIAB version and more so that it seems to have turned out well. My very best regards and wishes to you all!

Alan: As for the guitar solo, yeah, I think it came out alright—just don’t ask me how many takes it took me to do it, LOL! And to show my musical ignorance, I have no idea what a 5th (augmented) not is. But glad it I hit it!

Deej,

Very beautiful song!
Super vocal.
It reminded me of The Beatles' "Till There Was You" a little bit.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

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."
