Hi, friends ! I wrote this tune last fall when we were staying out on our summer cabin in the Southwest of Finland ! I was amazed by the big cranes preparing themselves for the long migration flight partly also from our field ! I just could not finish this tune earlier so it comes up now when the fall is long passed ! Here should be the links: http://soundcloud.com/user-337827005/the-cranes?si=074b6a6f437a4f16b14ae293fbc6684c&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharinghttp://app.box.com/s/o9fe5qpatini2qpjegsr5488ovt93qg7...and here are the lyrics: The Cranes (Music and Lyrics by Norman Wibe) See the cranes are gath´rin for their trip abroad, and hear them callin´for guidance where to land seein´all those mighty birds makes me feel so sad though I know they have to go, and I´ll be glad that they leave before the snow otherwise they couldn´t go they´ll be trapped below on the snowy ground out in the field, without a shield , a frozen mound helpless in the cold, in the cold Love to view the flight of the mighty cranes now liftin´slowly , in a single row over the treetop, see them fly aloof over my barnyard roof , and I´ll be glad that they leave before the snow otherwise they couldn´t go they´ll be trapped below on the snowy ground out in the field, without a shield , a frozen mound helpless in the cold, in the cold SOLO My dear cranes , evade the snow otherwise you cannot go you´ll be trapped below n the snowy ground out in the field, without a shield , a frozen mound helpless in the cold, in the cold Here are the particulars regarding the instros: THE STYLE: _CNTRYSH.STY (Country Shuffle) Instros: Bass: 539, Piano: 2043, Drums: Realdrums Country Shuffle, Guitar 1: 372, Pedal Steel: 370, Guitar 2: 2436, Soloist: 1279 Country Boogie Brent sw 140 Recorded with mixcraft 8, reverb and compressor added !

Very nice work.
Like David really liked those very deep low vocals.
That's an impressive range you have!
Good song.

Great song about those magnificent, pre-historic birds. They have mighty mating dances. I hope the human activities won't threaten their existence anymore, I recently watched a document a man who followed their migration to Hungary and Israel and how the cranes were scared away in some places.
Very respectful and beautiful lyrics. I really enjoyed your singing, your low register sounds amazing and the backing vocals are the wings. Great band also, the soloist guitar is perfect fit for the mood.

Ha! Given the song was about cranes, I didn't expect such a rocking introduction. I'm with jannesan - that's a darned impressive low end in your vocal! "Tell them, boys!"

Yes Dani has a super vocal range and he handles it all expertly.
I really liked this one. Great backing tracks supporting a super vocal.
Great job!
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.

WOW! Really nice, Dani. Yeah, like David said, how low can you go? The perfect vehicle for your expression, and I love the lyrics --so respectful and beautiful as Janne said.

Nice ode to the cranes. It's obvious you were very observant of them and that's a good thing. Observing nature is a form of meditation, I think. The Band has the rhythm down, no doubt. As said before, your vocals are well done.

Enjoyed that Dani.
We are watching a BBC series on birds in flight that has some great crane footage.
Well performed, mixed and fine use of BiaB tracks!

Hi, Janne !
I knew that you would be
glad to hear another song
about them birds as you
had posted one before
a little earlier ! I knew
that we both are worried
about how the birds and
animal life in general
will be able to cope with
the challenges of today !
I do thank you so very much
for your most kind words
truly much appreciated !
Take Care !
Cheers
Dani

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."
