Thanks for the listen and comments https://kennyleverett.bandcamp.com/track/tomorrowTomorrow © 2017 Kenny Leverett 05242017 When tomorrow comes I will greet the day And be thankful for the sun I’ll have gratitude for the things you do And feel blessed that we are one No more taking for granted No more wasted days No one’s promised tomorrow So I’m thankful for today An unfolding path to the road we’re on As we live from day to day I’ll appreciate all you give to me And I pray you’ll always stay No more taking for granted No more wasted days No one’s promised tomorrow So I’m thankful for today I’ll be strong strong enough To see us thru When the goings rough times get tough My love will carry you When tomorrow comes I will greet the day And be thankful for the sun I’ll have gratitude for the things you do And feel blessed that we are one Cello 1856 Piano EZ Keys

Beautiful Kenny, Nice job on the arrangement. The cello works so well with those piano tracks. Wonderful write and a spectacular vocal. When you went for that high note it was gripping. The raspy tone of your vocals sure hits a sweet spot. Very well done. You're on a roll! Don't mess with the muse. Keep em coming. Tom

Tom Tom quoted mine on Alan's song, I'm using his on yours - he hit all the points I would too... You are "killin' it" lately, Kenny. SO good. Your vocal recording on this is "the best ever" - really capturing the power in your vocal (I'd say keep doing whatever you did here...) Great listen. fj

Hi Kenny.
This is simply superb.
I had to listen to it again just to hear you sing the line "No one’s promised tomorrow". It sent a shiver down my back.
All the way through I was wondering if you were going to throw in the full orchestration on the last verse, a bit like in Bridge Over Troubled Waters and I'm so glad you didn't. It really works so well with just the piano and voice, anything else would have spoilt it.
This is an inspired write and seriously chart material. The best yet in my view.
Cheers, ROG.

Hi Kenny
The word that initially comes to mind is "Wow!" and then on second listen we could think of nothing better to say. ""Wow" covers it pretty good for us.
Your falsetto is superb. That bit of edge in your voice is the perfect compliment to the great music and lyric.
The simplicity of the music says more than a full orchestra could ever have conveyed. To say this simply gorgeous is a slight to its excellence. This is, without a doubt, our favorite song from you one of our favorites on the board at this time. Standing "O"!

Peter Kenny, This and all the other accolades are absolutely right. I`ll just add that your vocal has a one-take live feel that really knocks this out of the park. One of your best. Robert

Very pure and emotive vocal. The instrumentation you chose was perfect too, just right to compliment the vocal and not take away from it.

Janice and I have over the years talked about how irrespective of genre we are drawn toward husky vocal timbres. Perhaps we like Americana so much as it tends to showcase such vocals. And now we have continuing great examples of it right here on the forum  So obviously we loved the vocal. And, man, the write is stellar. As janice said "beautiful and soulful." And an uplifting positive lyric (the kind I wish I could write). The piano and cello tracks were made for the song and are perfectly mixed for the vocal. A fine addition to a fine catalog. J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

I agree with everything they said. To me, the vocal (and song somewhat) had a Sting quality which, to me, is awesome. This is so beautifully done!! About the best compliment I can give is that after listening, I didn't want to listen to anything else for a half hour or so. Just wanted to let the sweet sound resonate in my mind, like leaving the sweet taste of dessert in your mouth after a fine meal. Truly BEAUTIFUL Kenny!!! One of my faves of so many great songs you've written! Take care. Greg

There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4).

And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.

There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
