Nicely done! It sounds really sincere and heartfelt, and some of the melodies are so sweet on the ears. Love how gentle it is, and the way it pairs with your slightly gritty vocals really does it justice. Thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

Another lovely song Kenny... I really liked the vocals & harmony effects you put on the 1st "state of blue"... I think I've gone back & listened that one section several times... Its pretty cool sounding!

Kenny, this is a SUPERB love song. And, in our book, that ain't easy to write or perform.
Two real standouts here: Kenny and Andy.
And right off the bat Janice commented on how much she likes the bass.
As with all your material it's the totality of things...the write, the vocal performance and the well selected backing tracks all, as Gregg Allman says, are "hittin' the note."
And, man, that melody is wonderful. Stick with you wonderful.
Congrats on another one...
J&B

Kenny,
WOW! What a song! Goosebumps.
The BAND is EXCELLENT. Love it!
Your melodies these days are to die for! (the lyrics are stellar, too).
Your vocal, (though a bit hot), is... awesome.
This sounded like Chris Stapleton singing a J.D. Souther song. What could be better?
Exceptional.

Darned it, someone already used heartfelt, as well as mentioning the J.D. Souther vibe.
Excellent lyrics, well sung.
The chorus did exactly what it needed to. Sounded great the first time, and then again after the instrumental.
To me, this song hits that "sweet spot" of sounding vaguely familiar without being derivative.

All I can say is WOW! This is perfect in every way. Super choice for your backing tracks as this sounds live! Your vocals are outstanding and your lyrics are heart touching.
This should be on the radio!

An excellent song. Is the hot vocal through VST, (decimator, drive or similar), proximity, intimate compression or something else? The distortion on the vocal isn't a liability but "I can't go on.." does get too close to unpleasant in headphones. A lovely arrangement and sentiment.

Wonderful melody that has stayed with me for 15-20 minutes between listens and now. Hard to pin down this lyric. Stark is an adjective I'd use. I don't really know which way to plug into it emotionally. Part of me senses the realism of a relationship. And part of me senses it's about to end. Nothing at all wrong with not tying up neatly with a bow. Insted, it drew me in.

Its pretty cool sounding! Jim, Thanks, I was tempted to repeat that part the second time around, decided that it should stay as simple as possible. Thanks for mentioning it, you might know that it's borrowed from a Linda Ronstadt arrangement at least that's where I heard it first.

Kenny,
Love the tune, love the lyrics—sets just the right mood, and sung with a lot of emotion and heart. Could possibly dial back the vocal in the mix a bit, or maybe take off a shade of reverb . . . but it’s sounding pretty darn good as is. Really strong offering, Kenny. I think it’s one of my favorites from you (which is saying a lot giving how many terrific tunes I’ve heard from you).
Hope all is good with you!
Deej

Kenny, not sure how this escaped me. I usually pay attention to your releases. Nice laid back rock ballad. Usage of strings is excellent. I like your vocal chain FX or the things you used on it. Got this early Pink Floyd vocal tone to it. This is an nice addition to your heavier tunes! Enjoyed my listen.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.

Your interpretation of the heartaching lyrics is magical, so much feeling in your voice and I like that breathing is not cut out. Superb band, simplicity just works here.

Hi Kenny,

Just an outstanding song, one of your best IMHO.
Is that you playing guitar on the soundcloud pic?

A classic Kenny tune! Really soul felt with a beautiful chorus! Loved the electric piano! I liked the fact that you left the breath sounds in between the lines, it really adds to the emotional vibe to the tune! Nice work Kenny!! Thanks, Torrey

WOW, Kenny!
Everything that should be said has ready been said, as far as I can tell. I'll pile on to all those accolades. If awards were given for cutting edge emotion, this would be an easy winner. Your vocal delivery is all a listener could hope for. And the band ... well, they got their stuff together and soared. Simply astounding. This is eloquent as only you could do it.

Kenny, I loved the rawness of this song. Not many singers/writers can carry this kind of raw emotion off as well as you do with the subtle builds and valleys moving the listeners heart right along with you.

A classic Kenny tune! Really soul felt with a beautiful chorus! Loved the electric piano! I liked the fact that you left the breath sounds in between the lines, it really adds to the emotional vibe to the tune! Nice work Kenny!! Thanks, Torrey Thanks Torrey I love that piano sound too, seems to work well in a sparse arrangement appreciate the kind words

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.

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."
