Rob,
WOW, this is good! Very well done, as I would expect from you. Not only does this highlight your diversity, it also illustrate how versatile Band In A Box is.
Great job!

Thank you Roger!
Yes, diversity is what it's all about ;-) Well, you are no stranger to that either. Your songs are as melodic and creative as they can come.

that Tunecore ad nearly scared me to death,
couldn't figure out where it was coming from at first,
Great vocals as always, very nice mix
It's not my generation I guess,
don't like this genre, but there are elements that appeal
you guys have range in your talents
Kenny Thanks Kenny, and sorry for that stupid ad, I already updated the link. I like it that, although this isn't your style of music, you can still appreciate it! Rob

Rob,
This is really well done!
The production works at every level. The ebb and flow is nice. Tasty. Excellent arrangement.
Your vocal is outstanding!
As Kenny said "not my kind of music"... but DANG! this is well done!!!
Super.
fj Thanks Floyd, I can very much appreciate different tastes in music, but still being able to judge this song for what it is ;-) I like that! Rob

Wow, this is sensational.
What an absolutely sensational write, production delivery, and everything.
This is a strong, solid write, with a perfect vibe for the genre you've chosen.
Your team has managed to showcase 'classic disco' in every way, shape and form.
I could listen to lots more of this.
Exceptional!

Ok, you are going to think I'm nuts but I feel like you have elements of so many bands! Nitzer Ebb, Depeche Mode, Erasure, etc...and Wham? Crazy good vocal tone you have going on...as always! I always love the atmosphere your songs bring. I'm a production junkie and totally can appreciate what you are doing. Keep these coming! It represents a whole different area of PG M's products really well! I typically don't comment on songs as I many times I listen to them while driving. I happened to at a computer today listening and just had to comment!

Okay, I'm going to wrap this one up, making room for yet another RnAM ballad to follow.
Thank you FFM, Torrey, David C, Shigeki, Tyler, your comments are very much appreciated!
Ember: a German dance vibe, well that sure is a compliment. Thank you!
J & B: thank you! To be honest, I don't know much about the dance genre too (disco is another thing, I grew up with that). The basis of this song was created in EJay which makes it very easy to compile something.
But that was just a raw sketch. It took a lot of balancing through the years, and finally with BIAB it got a more "adult" sound, so to speak ;-)
Janne: I had a hunch you might like this, it has some (very slight) resemblances to some of your tracks ;-)
Steve: thank you! And I'm also thanking BIAB for taking it to another level ;-)
Trevor: thank you for this very positive comment! Appreciated as always.
HereToLearn: wow those are a lot of very positive comparisons! And Wham is not really a question mark ;-). I've always been a fan of them, well George Michael (Andrew Ridgely didn't have a lot to do with the final productions if I'm not mistaken).
And of course my musical inspiration/reference is mostly the 70s/80s. That is a combination of classical 80s rock and pop, but also the early electro-pop.
Rob

I finally got around to listening to this after seeing all the hype surrounding it in the threads here - this is incredible! Truly an amazing representation of what you can accomplish in Band-in-a-Box. Reminds me a little bit of late 80's/early 90's Depeche Mode. Stunning work; you absolutely nailed this one! Those emotional vocals, looming over that lush instrumentation with the gentle pulse of a dance/house song - nothing I would change. You should be very proud of this one Thanks so much for sharing, RnAM.
Cheers,
Deryk

Although you said this isn't your kind of music you wouldn't know it by this song!
If I listen to this one more time I will get the urge to purchase a leisure suit!
This is a keeper.

This is a keeper. well Mario, such a purchase would be a good thing ;-) by the way, it wasn't me who said this wasn't my kind of music, but a couple of other listeners ;-) they can rest assured, our next contribution will be an atmospheric ballad. Rob
