I am in no way straying from what I write best, which is gospel, but an opportunity came along to Co-write a country song with someone all the way over on the west coast. She wrote the lyrics, and I wrote the music. Who Wants This Broken Heart https://soundcloud.com/ronniefields/who-wants-this-broken-heartWho wants this broken heart, it’s got a few mile left on it, one thing that I’ll have to admit, it’s left me empty quite a bit. Remember if you take, be careful for both our sakes, it’s ready for a new love to start, so who wants this broken heart. It’s seen its share of pain in its day, the years have thrown their many toils its way. But it will keep a smile on your face, and singing a song so full of grace. Who wants this broken heart, it’s got some good times left on it, one thing that I’ll have to admit, it’s left me empty quite a bit. Remember if you take, be careful for both our sakes it’s been hurt from the start, so who wants this broken heart It thought it knew true love, but what did it know, all easy come and easy go. Maybe you can give this heart a second chance, to mend it forever with our romance. Who wants this broken heart, it’s got true love left to give, one thing that I’ll have to admit, it’s left me lonely quite a bit. Remember if you take, be careful for both our sakes, plant loosely this tender start, please take this broken heart. Plant loosely this tender start, please take this broken heart.

It's a nice one Ronnie, though I do get the feeling you rush/crush the phrasing at the end of some lines - sort of like the phrase needs a couple of more beats or an whole bar.
That backing vocal comes in pretty loud.
Otherwise - nice one.
Cheers

I agree with Ray, the backing vocals come in a little strong. Apart from that, no complaints here Rob

Hello Ronnie,
I listened to your cheerful/sad swinging country song.
Well done. Nice lyrics and sung pleasantly!
I read some say the bg vocals were too loud. I had no problems with this.
They weren't really bg vocals but singing along.
But I would like to see you use a bit more depth in the mix, more volume to the instruments an a little extra reverb on the vocals.
Like you are singing in a bigger room, or small hall ;-)
But that is just an opinion you can ignore...
Nice day,
Hans

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."
