Lonely Boy
J.Kenney © 2012
re-recorded 5-5-17


Keep your feet on the ground
take one step at a time - you're told
Pushing brings it all down
End up losing your mind - out in the cold

Lonely boy - trying to get it right
Lonely boy - slow down a bit tonight

Summer turned into fall
Didn't figure so much - lay ahead
Winter blew into town
You're the last one around - so they said

Lonely boy - you're finally settling down
Lonely boy - now look what you have found

This never happened to you
it can't be real
They must mean somebody else
not too sure what you're supposed to feel

Lonely boy - trying to get it right
Lonely boy - slow down a bit tonight

Lonely boy - you're finally settling down
Lonely boy - now look what you have found

John,

This has a very cool retro feel to it. Great mix and vocal - I really enjoyed this.

John, great delivery, excellent use of the harmonies, and the electric piano gave a great presence to the song.

Ideal tempo for the style, and very beautiful lyrics.

Thanks for sharing.

Wow! great song John

I don't remember hearing this before.

Would anyone be surprised to know that we

cut our teeth on Eagles songs?

That influence and your own great style make this a standout.

Hi John,

Another really nice song from you. You're quickly one of our favorites here. Smooth as warm butter - and much more pleasing. We could hear the eagles doing this at a slightly faster tempo. The Calypso influence was a real good choice for your guitar tracks. Smooth and comfy in our ears. Nice!

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."
