SORRY about the new thread. Upon returning home I brought my wife, my luggage and COVID. That caused inactivity & now I can't edit the original with the W.I.P. that is part & parcel of the point. BIAB drums, acoustic solo & organ with the rest by me - so far. Here's the backing with & without melody: Judith Said Lyrics - we have lyrics! Based on the realization that 70 years of a relationship does not mean that either party knows the other's deepest desires unless they are welcomed or expressed. There's still some tweaking to be done and, I assume, some melody reworking needed as well. Judith Said V1 Judith said In her head Don't call me Judy It's not my name If it's all the same To you. C1 Long term love fits like a glove But deadens the touch Marital habit from hare to rabbit Doesn't take too much Not asked, just assumed Choices subsumed V2 Judith said Silent bed Always wanted a cat It's not to be There's no cat for me It's true. C2 Long term love fits like a glove But deadens the touch Marital habit from hare to rabbit Doesn't take too much When knowing "what's best" Ignores the rest. SOLO V3 Judith said She pled Let's go for a drive Movement & air New moments to share With you. C3 Long term love fits like a glove But deadens the touch Marital habit from hare to rabbit Doesn't take too much Two minds become one Choices are undone

I can hear the flute in this mix!  Now if you could just find a singer... Sorry to hear you got COVID. Hopefully it's the relatively mild version that's been going around. Everyone at my house is more than ready to be not sick anymore.

We really like this bed for the vocals, Ray.
Your bass works great with the RD and your guitar performances are excellent.
Your midi work complements the organ with a serene feeling against the urgent vibe from the drums and bass.
We look forward to the vocal version!
J&B
PS We had listened to this and created our comments but not posted them until today.
So this is for V1 but we will soon listen to V2 for differences.
Glad things are settling down a bit for you and yours.

Thgis is good. My favorite part are the lyrics --the implied things Judith didn't say. I tried singing them with the melody, and I hear you. I really enjoy hearing these develop. Thanks, Ray

Ray
It's sounding really good to me! The lyrics are interesting and once the right vocalist is in place this will probably a good one! In my mind I can hear a female vocal on this! I like the clean sounds chosen instead of a heavier distorted rock sound.
Take care, TB

Ray, sorry for your health issue, hope you are on the way to a speedy recovery. Like the way this is developing. In fact, the melody (without vocals) version makes a fine instrumental in my view. Great mix as usual. Thanks for sharing these glimpses of the work in progress. Looking forward to "final" if there is such a thing. Ha!

Hi Ray,
I fully agree with what Dave wrote.
Like the song and melody and that nice flute.
The nylon strings guitar gave the song some touches of Greece songs.
I felt that in the beginning and somewhere in the middle of the song.
What does Judith thinks of that? On purpose or...?
In the -lovely- lyrics Judith seems to complain all the time. Is she?
Or maybe I need to hear her singing this song first.
I have some doubt about the drum section. I think I wrote it before.
The melody is very nice, as I said, but the drums... It feels like they could florish with less bpm.
To me...
Cheers,
Hans

Hi rayc,
Love with the time often turns into a deep friendship that cannot be done without. Your composition has the merit of addressing these problems with time passing too quickly. I appreciated your very airy melody which fits well with your lyrics. It's a joyous song full of emotion. well done
Kindly regard

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."
