Any suggestions for tunes for August? City Lights and something else maybe?

Im on at the opry tonight. My Nashville 1000 has the Ken Fox mod in it now as well as the new transformer so hopefully it wont blow up!

I ENJOYED DOING "SING ME BACK HOME" HOW ABOUT DOING IT AS ONE OF OUR TUNES
1 CITY LIGHTS
2 SING ME BACK HOME. KEY OF GORRIE

I THINK WE SHOULD KEEP UP THE CAMPFIRE IT WAS GREAT, MAYBE NOT SO CAMP THE NEXT TIME.
ALSO JUST A THOUGHT, HOW ABOUT SOMEONE PLAYING A TUNE ON THERE OWN, MAYBE SOMETHING THEY ARE PRACTICING AT HOME, JUST FOR FUN.

Hello chaps ~ anyone else have a problem with the track for 'Sing Me Back Home'?

I'm not very familiar with the tune ~ I've only watched The Hag's version a couple of times on youtube and I'm not sure what the backing track should sound like.
One thing I'm pretty sure about is that it shouldn't sound the way it does on my laptop because when I select it to play, a message appears for a couple of seconds in the top right corner of the screen --- here's the message >>>

. . . and to hear how I'm hearing it --- CLICK HERE.

So ~ can anyone suggest which style I should choose on BIAB so that the track will sound something like the way it does on the more up-to-date BIAB versions.

Maybe I shouldn't --- but I just don't like jazz or anything jazzy, and when I listen to the track it just jangles me coz "Jimmy Hates Jazz" (I know the band was Johnny Hates Jazz ! )
. . . and yes, I know I could just select a different style but I would prefer someone to suggest a style that would sound like the way Donny wrote it, seein' as I don't know. :?

HI JIM, YES I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A TRACK I GOT FROM DAVIE, IT WAS A JAZZY STYLE. SET IT UP WITH: GEORGE SAD COUNTRY BALLAD, OR IF YOU DON'T HAVE THAT: 90s COUNTRY BALLAD.
