Cheers and thanks, glad you liked it.
BIAB is one hell of a programme if it can showcase the beautiful stuff you write and sing and my take on music blush laugh

glad you enjoyed

Enjoyed.

If you bought a ticket for my concert, then I'd invite you back stage for the after party:a cup of hot chocolate, slippers and a pipe in front of a warm fire. NOT!!

thanks for listening

IMPRESSIVE singing.

Super enjoyable.

floyd


thanks floyd,
BIAB is an amazing programme, although I call it Band out of it's Box.

"I want to sing in the pouring rain 'n be in love and look like I'm in pain" but they DO look like that as they pull the heart strings of their young fans!

thanks for the compliment about the singing, I needed a lot of practice to sing that in one take and felt like I had run a marathon afterwards. How do bands do that on stage every night?...oh wait drugs crazy

take care and keep producing your masterpieces

Alyn,

This is great! Really made me laugh! I love your quirky sense of humor. This one made me think of Dr. Hook's Cover Of The Rolling Stone.

Keep em coming!

Oh how I searched for rhymes, especially for the second "one" but in the end I thought MEH! I'll use them as double-positives to emphasise my wish cool (just thought of that LOL I actually gave up)

with BiaB -- very inventive.

Superb!!!

J&B


Wow, thank you.
I did the song with 2 instances of BIAB running so I could get a mini fade for each part. Doubling the tempo was a random choice and worked well in the end.
Joining the 2 in my DAW, Cubase SX, was much easier than I thought it would be, it was the singing that initially stumped me, as I sing the songs in my head as I write and it came as a big shock to the system when I first tried the vocals live grin

so glad you both enjoyed it as our songs are worlds apart and yes BIAB is one hell of a good programme as I would have great difficulty realising my musical dreams without it!

Alyn. Ha ha. This is completely awesome. The thrash section (is the right term) is so unexpected. What a fun way to start off my Friday morning. You must be feeling better!

Thanks Steve, glad I raised a laugh and I have been told many times I have a weird sense of humour, quirky sounds nicer tho'

I liked Dr Hook in their early days and thought the song you mention, brilliant

thanks for listening

I should have linked to Blink 182 in the original post but didn't think.
