David
A very good listen, I like the dynamics, the melody and the piano.
Good song all round.

YES regarding the piano!
This song would fit right in on Dylan’s “Gotta Serve Somebody” album (lyric and sound) and that is a good thing.
“just try and make a difference in every life you touch” Amen to the above.
The lyric reaches that spiritual realm that transcends religion choices.
Good one all the way around!

Hey, David, the instrumentation is fantastic. All around, great sound. The lyrical treatment and vocals are out of sight. This avenue, I think, you would do well to pursue with vigor. I'd be interested in hearing a bit more of your personal history with respect to this song, like, what really went into it? There's a profound message. Then you add, " It ain't gonna go that well."

David.
Every aspect of this is "one of you best!"
One of your BEST writes. Solid through and through. Lyric and melody.
One of your best vocals. Sung from the heart.
One of your best productions. Everything happens at the right time. I thought "a gospel choir would sound good here" - and it happened.
One of your best mixes.
Do a whole album like this and you would be on fire. (The GOOD "on fire").
Loved it.

David, "it doesn't mean you're going to hell but if you were heartless If you were heartless it ain't gonna go that well" Calling out the hypocrites one song at a time.
The piano works well...nice development.

Even though I don't believe in God, I think your lyrics are very, very good and contain a lot of truth. I think that your decision for the piano is a good one. When in doubt, use a piano with an acoustic and call it a day From the mix, I think the darker BG vocals clash with your vocals in some places at the end, maybe they can be panned more to the right. But the rest is really good and well balanced. PS: in the text above you forgot the "the" in "is damned sure keeping the score"

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."
