So here it is - another Christmas song (Hang in there B.D. I know they annoy you, but just another couple of days and we'll be through the season - and at least there's no banjo in this one!) When I was a kid Pure Prairie League put out a couple of albums that I loved (Two Lane Highway & Taking the Stage.) I know it is dated, but I was shooting for that kind of a feel with this one. I'm certainly open to all ideas, critiques and comments, should you choose to give it a listen. Merry Christmas everyone. https://soundcloud.com/user-722422510/mrs-santa-claus When I was just a kid, like every kid around, I couldn’t wait for Christmas when Santa came to town. ‘Cause there’d be something special on my Christmas list Then early Christmas morning I’d find out what I’d get. Now I may have grown. I may have changed a bit, but there’s still something special on my Christmas list. Now some may think it’s strange, but it’s really just because all I want for Christmas is Mrs. Santa Claus. All I want for Christmas is Mrs. Santa Claus. ‘Cause she’s got spiked heel boots and a red hat made of felt, a tiny Christmas suit that makes the snow melt. Then steam comes from the water, it beats all you ever saw. They don’t come any hotter than Mrs. Santa Claus when she pulls up in her sleigh, says “What’s your Christmas wish?”, but I know if I say I’ll be on that naughty list. So is it really strange, can it really be so wrong For me to be in love with Mrs. Santa Claus? For me to be in love with Mrs. Santa Claus? Oh, Mrs. Santa Claus, she’s got me in her spell. Gets me thinking crazy thoughts that ring my jingle bells. She really turns me on, I don’t want nothin’ else. She’s so smoking hot. She’s everything I want. My only Christmas wish is for my pretty misses, Mrs. Santa Claus. Mrs. Santa Claus. Oh, Mrs. Santa Claus, she’s got me in her spell. Gets me thinking crazy thoughts that ring my jingle bells. She really turns me on, I don’t want nothin’ else. She’s so smoking hot. She’s everything I want. My only Christmas wish is for my pretty misses, my Mrs. Santa Claus, she’s got me in her spell. Gets me thinking crazy thoughts that ring my jingle bells. She really turns me on, I don’t want nothin’ else. She’s so smoking hot. She’s everything I want. My only Christmas wish is for my pretty misses, my Mrs. Santa Claus. Yeah, my only Christmas wish is for my pretty misses, Mrs. Santa Claus. Mrs. Santa Claus. My Misses, whoa my Mrs. Santa Claus.

I like your song and especially the lyrics. In my opinion, it's not a Christmas song at all (with jingle bells and all that), but a song about Christmas. I don't have a problem with that. Oh, and thanks for not using a banjo Making bits and bytes sound good... Goldmania Bella - A One-Man Girlband with no fans Listen on Spotify Watch on YouTube

Around my house, I'm Santa Claus, so I'm okay with this kind of inspiration coming from "my" Mrs. Santa Claus! Hope everyone had a great Christmas and I'm looking forward to another year of great music coming from you in this coming year! https://soundcloud.com/user-722422510/tracks

BTW, you might want to fix the URL - the last bit is left off, so you have to select the song once you get to your SoundCloud page. -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

PS - I'm in the 4th stage of Santa Claus: 1-you believe in Santa Claus 2-you don't believe in Santa Claus 3-you are Santa Claus 4-you look like Santa Claus Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.

I recall PPL well, I met Craig Fuller back when I was a record store manager in the seventies. Amie was their big song back then. Last edited by TuneMonger; 12/27/22 08:33 AM.

Thanks for giving it a listen Peter. Howdy Mario, I'm getting there too! No beard, but plenty of gray hair (all except for where there's no hair at all!) Hope you had a great Christmas with the family Dan. Thanks for listening - and I'll keep my head low for a while! TM, I'll be that was fun. I think I ran a needle through Taking the Stage, and I wore out the tape on Two-Lane highway! Oh, the days of vinyl and tapes ... https://soundcloud.com/user-722422510/tracks

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
