cool pop song. I like to browse my old work in progress folders from time to time but I haven't found any such gems yet. Good job. Thanks Herb Peter

Upbeat, bouncy, very good track. Guitar blends well. The vocals seemed a bit too upfront (to my ears), but still worth the listen.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

It is certainly a fun “little old pop song” and we’re glad you revived it. You and Leon and the band are in the groove. We love the guitar (of course!) The video is cool and we love the way the girl with the auburn colored hair sashays when she walks. Most enjoyable! J&B

Fun and nicely done guys. If you should do another similar one in the future, I would heavily process adding some cool vocal fx (as Ray suggested) to really bring home the 80s vibe.

So glad you were able to blow the dust of this tune Peter. Very cool hook to the song. Loved the wah. Super vocal from Leon. Excellent video Really well done.

Not sure if I completely get the song (I only understand parts of the lyrics), but that's a really catchy song, and the guitar is really cool. I like it!
And I think the video works very well for this song. Thanks appreciate the comments. peter

Definitely has an early Eurythmics feels. The guitar parts are ace. My 1st impression was that Leon's voice should be heavily processed to give it an 80s feel. Cool. Thanks Ray I was more focused on the video than the audio, but that would be an interesting change. Peter

Peter,
Love the music mix . . . really cool 80’s sounds—great beat and vibe. From a production standpoint, I’m not sure the vocal fits in the mix ideally, and early on in the song it felt rushed on a couple of lines. Maybe just a little EQ’ing and playing with the effects might get it to sit better . . . dunno. And then again, listen to what others have to say . . . lord knows, it may be just fine as is. Cool tune!
Best regards,
Deej Thanks Deej - was a pretty old mix I resurrected for the video so you are probably right. I think there is an updated set of lyrics somewhere (it's not one of Leon's favourite lyrics - it was written a long time ago).

Peter & Leon,
A VERY nicely done video.
A VERY catchy song. Good Pop theme and sound.
A fitting production and a good mix.
Above all... a most enjoyable listen (and watch)...

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."
Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...
2024 is well underway - it's already Easter Weekend!
Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
Friday, March 29: 8-4
