Hi Dave, Chris and Marty,

You were on my mind in my dark last months and when listening to your song I know why.
I missed this kind of music, vocals and instruments like the lead guitar and the bass.
What a nice song it is!

Though I agree with B.D. on the db's of Chris.
But I also know you wouldn't change anything if you are not convinced, Dave.
and... you're the boss ;-)

I enjoyed your song a lot!
Hans

Thanks for that, Scott!

Really like the mixing of drums. The BIAB instruments create a pleasant mood. Marty's bass sounds better than ever. Dave's guitar playing just keeps amazing me, why is this guy not better known around the world? Chris sings straight from her heart.

Possibly the nicest review we have ever received, thanks, Janne!

That Bass!
The Guitars are so good, I almost forgot to "listen" to them. That means - they are perfect. Love the outro.
Drums are crisp and clear (I thought they could use more reverb).
You "do organ" so well.
I thought the chorus needed "chick singers" doing funky stuff.

Good Listening.

Y'all are putting out Great music.

Well, when Floyd Jane tells me I need more reverb on the drums I pay attention! wink You are right, normally I do add additional reverb instead of just using the 'verb that comes with EZDrummer3, this time I didn't. I've made a note to check the reverb if I decide to upload DistroKid, although these days I mostly care about YouTube and no way to update the mix there unfortunately.

Thanks for all!

Misha.

P.S. This reminded me of some tunes by Tanita Tikaram from early albums.


Hi Misha,

I have never heard of Tanita Tikaram before, don't get out much I guess wink Listening to her now as I type this, she is great! Thanks for turning me on to her, and for the nice comments about our song.

Amen!

That’s such a true lyric, Dave. Maybe we should beam your song into the offices of all the politicians these days.

Chris sounds great, as she always does, and the little bits of hers and your harmony add just the right touches.
Your guitar soars well on this and Marty’s bass is the perfect glue.

The video scenes are quite effective and a good reminder of the needs of so many.

Enjoyed it!

J&B


Thanks you two, and thanks for the comment over on YouTube also smile

Hi BlueAttitude,

Realistic lyrics that invite us not to judge people too quickly based on preconceptions without knowing the difficulties they have encountered in life. The music is superb and fits well with the theme. It’s a gripping song that invites us to think. It's well done and I appreciated it.

Just loved the mix on the Dave. Boy the drums and Marty really set the groove for this tune. Chris's vocal is superb. Awesome guitar work as well. Loved the bite in guitar tone.

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."
