This Blue Hotel © 2017 Kenny Leverett
Catch a falling star on the way down On a lonely road on the edge of town A blue hotel there for broken hearts Everybody knows the scene Everybody plays their part
Darlin’ this blue hotel’s Got me thinking about you But I know too well These burned out bridges In my rear view Leave me here alone In this blue hotel
The sun will rise and the nights will fall Days will go by in no time at all You were the one made my spirits fly Now it’s come undone Was it just a lie
Darlin’ this blue hotel’s Got me thinking about you But I know too well These burned out bridges In my rear view Leave me here all alone In this blue hotel

There's a thread in one of the forums about "the all important first line." Man you nailed it here. Grabbed us from the git go and didn't let go.
Heartbreak Hotel revisited!
Standout write, vocal, band and production -- as typical you present the whole package and as usual we much enjoyed it!

Kenny,
Great lyrics and a killer vocal on this ( a just on the edge of breaking down feeling which makes me want to go play my Lucinda Williams records!). I also really enjoyed that guitar solo at the end.

Kenny,
This is EXCELLENT!
A good write. Such a nice rock-ballad melody!
Your vocal on this is a real stand out. Grit and melancholy...
A good band...production and arrangement - wonderful... A GREAT listen! Top-notch stuff.

This is so good. One of my favorites so far this year. Rockin' right along with it as I write my post...
Everything blends together - A great arrangement, write and performance. You did a wonderful job of putting everything together seamlessly.
A timeless feel about this one.
Enjoying my listen...

floyd Beautiful Kenny!! Your songs hit me right in the gut, and I mean that as the greatest compliment. If there's one thing that could improve this (in my opinion), it's a different lead guitar. I think that's Brent (who is God-like) but it just seems a little too rock/too fast for the song. Maybe one of the background slide things would work better? Your music is amazing. If you ever do a physical CD, I WANT a copy! Take care. Greg

Thanks guys, I did think of Heartbreak Hotel part way into this and kinda liked the similairities, and then looked up to find out how many Blue Hotel songs were out there. There's Ryan Adams and Chris Isaaks but I haven't listened to them yet. Thanks for the always kind words and support.

Appreciate your input too, I'm kinda burned out on the slide player right now, I tried playing the guitar solo myself and thought Brent got it down much better.

Really awesome tune, Kenny. Loving the vocal; it's reminding me of some of that more melancholy 90s grunge/indie stuff. The lyrics are great, too. They really compliment your vocal performance.

Kenny, we came back for another listen and this time were immediately reminded of a producer/singer/writer/guitarist we've listened to over the years...Gurf Morlix. Your vocal and writes have a similar feel. If memory serves he produced Robert Earl Keene and worked with Lucinda Williams. A song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xy6eMru1iMwEnjoyed it....again! J&B

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."
Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...
2024 is well underway - it's already Easter Weekend!
Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
Friday, March 29: 8-4
Saturday, March 30: 8-4
Sunday, March 31: closed
Regular hours resume Monday, April 1st - no joke!
