Here on the surface where everything seemed to be fine
Sunday kind of love everybody dreams of
Wasn’t what you had in mind
Girl I ain’t gonna beg you
Or stay down here on my knees
Done my best to please you
Guess I’ll have to set you free

And I just wanna say that before you walk away
Girl we had a good thing
Be careful what you choose
And what you have to lose
Cause we had a good thing
Had the kind of love everybody dreams of
We had a good thing
Girl we had a good thing

Back to square one
And I think it’s gonna take a while
Even if I had it coming to me
I’m surely gonna miss your style
Girl I ain’t gonna beg you
Or stay down here on my knees
Done my best to please you
Guess I’ll have to set you free

And I just wanna say that until you walked away
Girl we had a good thing
Be careful what you choose
And what you have to lose
Cause we had a good thing
Had the kind of love that I always dreamed of
We had a good thing
Girl we had a good thing

And I just wanna say that until you walked away
Girl we had a good thing
Be careful what you choose
And what you have to lose
Cause we had a good thing
Had the kind of love everybody dreams of
We had a good thing
Girl we had a good thing

Kenny,

I'm sitting here listening and really liking what I'm hearing. The mix is great, the arrangement is polished and the writing is really strong. You sound really comfortable singing in this style.

Four minutes of enjoyable listening from start to end.

All the best,
Noel

Kenny,

You have a real knack for writing good, catchy rock songs. This is another in a continuous stream...

A good band to present it, too. Your lead was nice (just a touch too loud).

A solid write.

A terrific listen. Could see the Stones doing this...

I really like the energy of this song, and I lOVE the vocal style, it reminds me of one of my favorite artists, Mitch Easter, the guy who recorded R.E.M.'s first album. You should see if you can find him on the web and listen. You might be amused. Some say he is the real father of jangle rock. Great sound man.

I enjoyed listening Kenny and you have a good voice to bring this off. You are an excellent guitarist and song writer. I do agree with Floyd about the lead volume and I would have liked to hear it more in the center.

Thanks David, man I loved your last song. I think we might have in common a love of pop styles, favorite artists maybe. I'll try to look up Easter it would be interesting I'm sure.

Yep, catchy indeed. It stuck with us long after the spin.

To our ears this is a fine write with an equally fine arrangement
and production.

The mix is nailed listening on our monitors.

We're down with Noel -- four minutes of good listening
from start to finish.

Great stuff Kenny!! You never disappoint. Just a really good-feeling, good-flowing song. The vintage EP was the perfect fit. As Floyd said, cool solo but a tad too loud. Excellent stuff, as is your usual!! Take care. Greg

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."
