As always thanks for the listen and comments https://soundcloud.com/kfl44/aint-giving-up-2Ain’t Giving Up © 2017 Kenny Leverett 08032017 Sitting in my car And just watching the rain Thinking to myself What a crying shame Cause I drove by your house tonight There was no light If you’re not waiting round for me That’s alright Cause I ain’t giving up On you and me I’m ready to be living up Girl to what you need And it’s true I haven’t caught you yet But you’re willing to be caught I’d bet So I ain’t giving up A change of heart That I can’t explain But what we had was too good To never have again And I ain’t giving up On you and me I’m ready to be living up Girl to what you need And it’s true I haven’t caught you yet But you’re willing to be caught I’d bet So I ain’t giving up And I ain’t giving up On you and me I’m ready to be living up Girl to what you need Drums Blues Rock EV Drums Retro Rock - Logan Bass 579 Roadhouse EV Slide 382 Background Blues Guitar 1762 Pop16ths Arp Guitar 381 Syncopated Sugar

Wow, what a tune! I love the groove of this one, and how vivid and cinematic the lyrics are. It sounds really sincere, and also the tune is nicely catchy too  Great work, and thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Deryk

Kenny,
Great energy comes through your vocal -you have a "better pay attention to this" way of delivering lines I really like.
The opening lyrics pulled me in and the groove doesn`t let up.
Very good!

Hi Kenny, yep, that signature "Kenny Sound". And that's a pretty danged good sound at this address. I was wondering which way you might go with this as there are so many directions that title could take, I like what you did with it. I think Robert said what I was thinking better than I could say it - thanks, Robert! Your vocals are always strong, gritty and spot on. Works for me. Good stuff, my friend. Wishing you the best, ALan

Kenny, Robert said it well when he said "great energy" comes from your vocal! This song also has a tremendous amount of energy bursting forth! It seems like kind of a cross between a Stones/John Mellencamp vibe to me! Good work! Thanks, Torrey

This really rocks.
All cool and happening in the right place & right groove.
The bvox are a little off putting but that's probably just me.
Did you record the main vocals hot to get that crunchy effect or did you add an effect?
Cheers

Kenny,
Wow! You've pulled out all stops with this work.
Your singing is first class and sits excellently on top of a great arrangement, a toe-tapping groove, and a really powerful mix. Whatever you've done in the finishing department is exceptional. Each and every instrument sparkles with clarity. You carried me along on a thoroughly enjoyable journey from start to end.
This is definitely a fine addition to your songbook!
All the best,
Noel
