And offering the world"

thanks for the listen and comments https://soundcloud.com/kfl44/when-it-comes-to-you-3When It Comes To You © 2019 Kenny Leverett Down on the shoreline drive There’s a cool breeze off the water Watching a beautiful day Slowly fading away Haven’t been here in ages Thought it was too much bother Reliving a past Accepting that nothing lasts But when it comes to you It’s a no can do Who would’ve thought I’d be the one Who couldn’t move on When it comes to you So many familiar places Flashbacks of moments gone by In a younger time Hiding inside my mind I still see you at twenty Part woman part bright eyed girl Looking in my direction And offering the world But when it comes to you It’s a no can do Who would’ve thought I’d be the one Who couldn’t move on When it comes to you But when it comes to you It’s a no can do Never thought I’d be the one Who couldn’t move on When it comes to you Drums Acoustic Folk Rock Bass 1174 PopCalypso Piano 1422 Acoustic PopCalypso Guitar 896 Acoustic Folk Rock 12 String Accordion 1173 PopCalypso Hi Kenny, the more songs of yours I get to listen to the more I like them (liked them from the start anyway !!!) This again is a great tune; in the beginning I was reminded on Tom Petty and Dylan (or a blend of their voices...) like they sang with the Travelling Wilburys (which I still like a lot), but, no: It's Kenny, and your singing is definitely second to non. Liked it a lot !!! Take care, Stefan

Kenny,
Awesome song!!!
Love the band! You keep coming up with good ones...
The combination of BGVs and accordion on the chorus is inspired! Sounds SO good!
You have a STAR-quality voice. A singer-songwriter-rocker voice. Like a Bob Seger. Or a Rod Stewart. I envy you that!
Super songwriting.
Your melodies are always so "sing-able". SO good.
Your lyrics are comfortable, yet fresh - a complexity to their simplicity... conversational (as lyrics should be) and meaningful. You write I-know-that-feeling! kinds of lyrics - nothing "contrived"...
Amazingly good.
I loved this.

I can't say it any better. You always nail it!! You songs are emotional, powerful, memorable, singable, and no one could do them like you!! AWESOME!! Take care. Greg Greg, Thank you so much for your kind words I'm a big fan of your music

My comments for the next few days will have to be brief as my wife just returned home from the hospital (twice since Christmas) and needs lots of attention. I apologize for the brevity but it's necessary. Thanks for understanding!
Kenny,
There's never a disappointment with anything you post. Great song and delivery - you remind me a bit of Rod Stewart with just a touch more grit. Excellent ... your music is always so easy to listen to - pro all the way. Best to you ...

Great sounding band the accordion sounds really nice - excellent impassioned vocals and enchanting melody and a strong set of lyrics.
Another top notch song.

Excellent song Kenny. Especially liked the mix on this song. Very cool how the vocal sits out front of the band and the instruments are so clear and distinct. Well done... Scott, Thanks for that

"So many familiar places
Flashbacks of moments gone by
In a younger time
Hiding inside my mind"
Four short lines that pack a ton of emotion...
You distill writes down to the "all that's needed"...never anything less or more. And to do that you gotta have something to say as you always do.
Back before his disco years there was a Rod Stewart that we listened to a lot and still do -- his first two albums after leaving Faces are masterpieces in our book.
This tune, like many of yours, would for us sit perfectly in that playlist. The comparo is not based simply on your voice but rather on the whole package of sounds that he captured on those two albums (Gasoline Alley and Every Picture Tells A Story). It's like we're being treated to newly discovered cuts from them. Yeah!
But then Son Volt comes to mind also. It’s all good!
GREAT!!!
J&B
Thanks guys! I absolutely love those Rod Stewart records, what happened to that guy? I heard he was playing soccer or something thanks for all the kind words take care, stay dry

Greg Yeah, Floyd pretty much nailed it with his comments I think. As good as it gets, and one of your best vocals ever. Loved it! Thanks Dave, you're a gentleman and scholarly type and one heck of a fine blues guitarist

Yeah , this one has a 70's soft rock feel to it, great job on the vocals Kenny, and your chord progression seems to slide into place with subtle changes. Love it!!! Cliff

Sounds great man. Sorry I can't be more loquacious. I am listening to everything but these next six months are mad crazy with my work, so I will just have to listen and say I love it. Please bear with me during this time. Great will mean great. I am listening.
