Kenny,
This is a GREAT rock write!
"Stole a Strat guitar and got a band
Took the spotlight, now you’re in demand"
Great start!
"Changed like the weather and broke my heart
Got cold indifference down to an art"
Killer couplet!!!
"Slither and shake you move so well
These little followers are under your spell"
Nice alliteration.
Your 2 line chorus is killer, too. And the change the 2nd time around ("So outrageous, sweetheart of the press...") makes it that much better...
And...man! you killed that vocal! - your best ever (and they are ALWAYS good...) That is heart-and-soul singin'!
Nice guitar touches. I did want those drums up just a tad.
So glad to see a 44kfl post again.... I remain a fan.

Floyd said it all, and better than I could. Wonderful!! Just a fantastic rocker! Love the guitar, vocal, harmonica, THE MIX, and of course, the write. I've been wondering when we'd hear from you again, and am psyched that your back. You should never stop writing. You're a great writer. Love hearing your stuff. Welcome back Kenny!!!! Take care. Greg Thanks Greg, Merry Christmas!

Wow. As evidenced by our ears and the above accolades this is a killer write. One of the best rock writes we've seen here. I'd pull a few lines to quote but it wouldn't do justice - there is zero filler here.
We don't have a an era stamp for it...it could fit well across many years of rock. Sorta like the Stones pull off.
The production sounds great on our monitors. Top notch vocals and guitar cap it off.
One to be proud of!

Great song! It caught me with the title, kept me with the intro, and will have me listening to it over and over with the rest - thanks for posting! This is today's Hot Forum Topic!  Thanks Callie, much appreciated! Merry Christmas

Just raggedy enough to rock on the intro. The vocal has just enough hair on the edges to really cut through. I like the 123 stop and the oohs. Nice touches. A great performance. You're a great singer and writer. Merry Christmas. Tom Thanks Tom, "just enough hair on the edges" I like that. Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

Kenny, this song has a tremendous amount of energy to it. I immediately was thinking of Small Faces and then morphed into the Stones. It's like they got together and wrote a song and Rod stepped out of the way and let Mick take over. Your talent is on display! Thanks, Torrey Thanks Torrey for the kind words, like your description. Happy Holidays!

Kenny,
Sounds GREAT LOUD!!
Always good to hear your songs, keep them coming.
I must have a look at the voltage style after hearing this.
This need more than one play.
All the best for Christmas
Alyn Yes! Thanks Alyn, it should be played loud! Thanks for the kind words, Happy Holidays!

A great mix, a hard-driving song (sorry, that sounds country), but your voice matches the tough lyrics very well, the way you put your whole self into the singing.
