What a lovely song. Such a delicate lyric and vocal. Loved the backtrack. This will be one of my favorite songs to come out of the forum..

A lovely emotive vocal, beautiful melody and a touching lyric.

The acoustic guitar worked nicely.

The video still shot was very expressive.

Well done y'all.

Beautiful song. The acoustic guitar is gorgeous. The music and lyrics are great together, and well-performed lyrics.

I would adjust the tambourine (is there hi-hat there too?). It sticks out a bit too much and grabs one's attention away from the overall sound, imo. I'd try softening it with eq, a eq with a high shelf eq rolled up until you hear the sound soften a bit. I'd also lower the volume a bit. Just my opinion, everybody's got one.

Hello friends,

On behalf of Greg and myself to all of you who listened and commented on this song:

Greg was very busy and my big sister passed away shortly after this song was posted.
I'm through that rough patch now and want to say thank you to each of you.

I agree with Frankp above... tambourine could use some taming...
That said, this is a terrific song & production, and Greg's vocal performance is Fabulous...
Really fine music...

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

This is a very melodic song. Great lead vocal and mix. I would like to hear the background vocals just a little bit higher because they really add to the mix. Great work.

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.
