Man, what a great song. Kinda tells my story, I've always had that dreams of making it, but now at almost 70, I need to face reality. But enough about me, I love this song!!

J&B:
Yes they can!

Janice:
When Bud first saw this post a few days ago he came to me in the dining room and said, “You’re going to love floyd’s new song.” So, I stopped what I was doing and read the lyric and got all teary eyed. Then I listened three times in a row and was happily singing along with my favorite lead singer. smile
This is a beautiful lyric and melody and your phrasing is just amazing. Soul to the max.

Bud:
While we are speaking of max I’ll throw in the fine band and mix. And steels and banjos with a synth pad … who would’ve thunk?

J&B:
Another very, very hi bar production mr jane!

Thanks for the great comments!!

Misha.



I appreciate all of that, Misha!! Thanks...

Hi floyd,

This is a magnificent write, performance and presentation. It's one of your best.

I love the premise that big dreams are dependent on how you define them. You've used this idea to create a very powerful lyric.

As I listened, hints of Bobby Goldboro kept drifting in and out of my mind. I'm not quite sure why. I'm going to have to go back and re-listen a few times to try and work it out.

This is truly top-shelf listening.

All the best,
Noel

Hi Floyd,

A lovely, sweet song.
And as for the lyrics, we think everybody recognises what they tell (if old enough smile )

Good lyrics. You know how to say what needs to be said without excessive verbage--the way it should be.

I like that hip folk guitar. Nice feel.

Therefore lovely songs!
This one is no exception and especially wonderful in the chorusses / harmonies!
And I haven't mentioned the strong lyrics yet.

On the other hand, after I wrote this to you I had that strange feeling I have written it before...

Have a nice day, Floyd!
Hans


Thanks, Hans....

Floyd,

Another terrific write . . . with you usual stellar production touches—nice hook as well. Love the lyrical turn in the last chorus—well constructed and delivered idea. Good stuff!

All my best to you,

Deej

Always enjoy reading your comments, Greg... Thanks...

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."
