I like the way this one builds. Interesting lyric with a catchy chorus. Excellent backing.


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 smile

Oh, this is a good production and a well done song. Even if this is not my preferred kind of music, I can easily hear that this is well made. Good work!

Wow, you paint images with words, melody, and an engaging feel. Peeling daisy pedals and revealing the ups and downs of love. Nicely done, Vic.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Vic
You do these organic folk songs so well. This one has a kind of Steve Earle/Dylan vibe which I like. The song builds well with all the stringed instruments . I enjoyed this.
cheers
Gary.

Vic,

Liked it a lot—really cool folk feel to this. And your vocal matches up so well with the style; sits neatly in the mix. Catchy chorus as well. Good stuff!

Hope all is well with you,

Hi Leon.
Thanks. I like the "lived in" vocal. Sounds about right. Like an old pair of jeans.

Sounds simple but unique. I like the acoustic sound, not overdriven, and you can even hear the brushes in the drums, doesn't need a lot of percussion!!

Vic,
Good write! I like poetry and your phrasing on this. Good morphing from folky to more more harder style. The only thing I thought a guitar entry at 1:05 was a bit too loud. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Ronnie.
I did debate whether to leave the drums out but I think they enhance the chorus.

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."

Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:

Friday, March 29: 8-4
