Thanks for listening

There’s A Light
© 2017 Kenny Leverett

Long ago in this town
There were smiles and laughter
To be found

Far away now you have gone
Quiet streets seem haunted
No one’s home

There’s a light
Stays on all night
Find your way
Back to me

Long ago and by the sea
Hours spent in silence
Just you and me

There’s a light that’s in your eyes
I’d never seen
Eyes of green
That said goodbye

There’s a light
Stays on all night
Find your way
Back to me

Very nice, Kenny! I love the feel of this one, nice laid back groove. Great vocal!
Very effective bringing those strings in after the first chorus.

I like this.

The mix sounds good. I'm a big fan of vocals up front where they can be heard easily. I think you could perhaps back the vox off a dB or two and still be good. The EQ on the vox was also good. Nice and bright sounding.

good job

Boy do I ever like this tune. Reminded me of a David Gilmour vocal. Well done

Really nice tune, Kenny. I absolutely love the chorus - agreed with Scott on the Gilmour vibes!. I also really appreciate how subtle the strings are - effective choice.

Kenny,

This is by far my favorite song of yours. I just love it.

So well done. Sounds great. Haunting. Wonderful lyrics, excellent vocal, stays in your head and won't leave.

Don't know what else to say. A classic.

Kenny,

This is an excellent listen. The writing, arranging, singing and mixing all work hand-in-hand to create a top notch product. You've pulled out all stops with this one!

All the best,
Noel

Hello Kenny,

This is the first ballad Di and I have heard from you. We really enjoyed it!

Your raspy voice wraps itself around the music perfectly. Great mix (perhaps vocal just a touch too forward), good lyric and the prosody are spot on. Our favorite from you so far. best,

Alan & Di

A great opening phrase, long ago, and then far away, they really set the mood, a wonderful integration of lyrics and melodic line.

Hello, Kenny

Very nice slow ballad.
I think it is very difficult to make a good melody with only three notes.
But you've done the job.
It is very beautiful the melody with the isomorphic iteration of three notes.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best Regards.
