Losing Ground
© 2017 Kenny Leverett

Wake up California cause the sun is going down
But the sky it is not falling look around
Way down in the valleys and on the mountains high
So many counting on you, forget your alibis

Ooh Ooh look around
Cause you’re losing ground

Your suitors have stopped calling
Hollywood is gone
Big deals done in Texas
What went wrong
Wake up California cause the sun is going down
Look around

Ooh Ooh look around
Cause you’re losing ground

Broken down on that stretch of road
Trying to carry a heavier load
Than you could bear
Sometimes change is hard to face
Gotta get back up again
Get in the race

Wake up California cause the sun is going down
But the sky it is not falling look around
Way down in the valleys and on the mountains high
So many counting on you, forget your alibis

Ooh Ooh look around
Cause you’re losing ground

Wake up California cause the sun is going down
And you’re losing ground
Wake up California cause the sun is going down
Look around

Kenny

Great guitar work in the intro, and I really liked the driving bass, it gave the song punch.

All around, this is really well done.

Kenny,

Excellent! A great listen.

Terrific production and arrangement. The opening - nice!... you guitar work (here and throughout) is really well done. The BAND is perfect. Everything at the right level (including drums). The longer leads could come up (volume) just a bit.

Your vocals are stunning. Nice harmony ooohhs...

Man! this is GOOD!

Kenny,
Such a great band feel on this excellent, moody song and your guitar is killer - but the standout for me is your vocal.Grabs the attention from the first line and doesn`t let up.
One of your best.

Kennny, this is very good! Very good vocals, and very professional use of the real tracks. Sort of a Joe Walsh thing.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
