Anyhood, 2 points for playing with the ambiguity of wrap / rap meaning able to comprehend / able to explain – though I spent too much time wondering if this was a commentary on hiphop.
True dat... I do sometimes over-produce in studio, and will even over-play sometimes... but never on stage. grin;-) Thanks Mark.

Thanks Ray, I'll take that as a compliment...

Loved it
Really... "where did common sense go"?

A extraordinarily fine production, bloc-head. Every piece contributes the right amount of perfect to this really well written song. SO many pieces in there all working perfectly to make this such a strong song that can be listened to time and time again. The lyrics also star in this show. I can't rap either, but, man. I love to listen.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Good lyrics as well!
I told you on a former song of you, I got feelings of KC and the sunshine band. Here it was the same.
All the time the background vocals come in it looks alike. They are great.

I agreed with Dave this is very good, can't get any better.
Liked it a lot. Still listening (4th time...)
Hans
Hello Hans... I am really glad you liked this song, and thanks for the multiple listens... Also, I appreciate your comments.

Thanks big time Marti... btw, I love your latest Party song...

Leon! Ma Man... Never met the Mr. Russell, but I sure learned a lot of piano licks from his records, back in the day...
Thanks David...

To whomever played the parts ... we liked all the tracks! smile

The lead and the harmony sounded excellent as did the entire mix.

And tongue in cheek is always good in our book.

Enjoyed it,

J&B

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."
