Hi Deej.
Something about your voice reminds me of Buddy Holly.
Great arrangement and idea.

Re the bass harmony, at one time I sang bass harmonies in the band but age has lessened my range.
I could try it if you send me the track but can't guarantee.

Deej,
Excellent rocker (If I can call it that?) and a wonderful lyrical collaboration. Has a true vintage vibe. Instrumental arrangement and your vocals are great. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Hi Deej,

I am really glad you too found your way back to this forum. And with a very cool rocker I say! I enjoyed it.
Those 'fifteen feet away' are stuck in my head now. Thanks for that too.

Have a nice day and don't worry about the 'dip' in your inspiration. I haven't noticed it in this song anyway.

Hans

Strong chorus and bridge, and a real stirring rocker. Great idea for a song, too. The relativity of distance. Fifteen feet can surely seem like a billion miles. Well sung, and I love the harmony. A catchy hook for sure. It's one of those hooks that could come up in regular conversation. "Hand me those pliers." Singing: "But they're 15 feet, they're just 15 feet away." Stop singing: "Get 'em yourself." Man, we all know that feeling yo're singing about, Deej. Well done.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Fun concept, and fun song!! As others said, all guys can relate to this. I love Angel Eyes by John Hiatt which refers to the same feeling. Very well done, and I always like your vocals!!! Take care. Greg

A super collaboration! Super rocking song with great vocals, outstanding lyrics and mix.

Two thumbs up.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hey, Vic:

I’m game if you are—I’m betting you’ll do far better than I on the bass vocal. I’ll send you a PM so we can figure how to send the file along. Thanks for offering to help out—it’s much appreciated.

My best to you,

Deej

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."
