Kenny,
A cool Rock song. Killer vocal.
A "classic" sounding chorus that makes it immediately memorable.
For a "quick demo so there's no real mixing" this sounds pretty dang good!
A raw energy with an excellent "live" feel. Nice guitar work, too...
Enjoyed it. Immensely.
fj thanks fj appreciate your kind words have a Merry Christmas

fj I think Floyd hit it square on the head - but doesn't he always?! I agree, in particular, with the "live feel" part of his comment. Your vocals are always to die for. Pretty danged cool! Merry Christmas. Alan Thanks Alan, hope you and Di have a Merry Christmas

Kenny,
Love the rough & ready feel you`ve got going here.
Killer chorus ( who could resist those ooh hoos!).
With a vocal as strong as any you`ve done I`d say this begs for a revisit... as long as you don`t lose the energy that comes through on this demo.
Robert Thanks Robert I appreciate your support and kind words

I really love the rough raw vigor you've put into little tune...
Often it seems to me the liveliness of a quick demo sounds better to my ears than a slicked down full blown production...
Great job on this one! Hey Jim, me too! I didn't want to smooth this one out too much thanks for the listen and kind words

I'd written this last year after hurricane Harvey. I sent it to Janice and Bud because I thought Janice could do a killer vocal on it(as she does on everything) They had a hurricane song in the works already (Maria Blues) so I set this on the shelf. Later I put more vocals and my guitar part on but the tracks were all pulled over into my DAW onto one track for a quick demo so there's no real mixing on this. I kind of re-discovered it and decided that it should see the light of day, warts and all. Thanks for the listen and comments. https://soundcloud.com/kfl44/stronger_hurricaneStronger Than A Hurricane © 2017 Kenny Leverett It’s been a long time Waiting for the sun to shine Shine again Feels like a new day comin’ Waiting just around the bend Like all my lonely Lonely days are gone So glad we made it thru We can make it thru any storm And it’s a kiss Sweeter than sugarcane We got love baby Stronger than a hurricane Ooh Stronger than a hurricane We were laying low Dug in tight and good With a cold hard wind Tearing thru the neighborhood You get knocked down You come right back up again For a new day comin’ Waiting just around the bend And it’s a kiss Sweeter than sugarcane Sugarcane We got love baby Stronger than a hurricane And it’s a kiss Sweeter than sugarcane Sugarcane We got love baby Stronger than a hurricane Ooh Stronger than a hurricane dedicated to the resilience of the people in Texas from my old stomping grounds after hurricane Harvey Bass 1717 Texas Blues Rock Drums Rock Sync Kick Guitar 1718 Electric Rhythm Texas Blues Rock Guitar 1719 Electric Rhythm Texas Blues Rock Wow, Kenny, that's the kind of song I could listen to all day and all night, So great and catchy. Your vocal's always amazing (even though I'd like to hear what Janice would make out of it...), the guitar parts are so cool and, please: Let it stay that rough and 'warty' - can't imagine how you could make it more attractive for me ... Great stuff, man ! Stefan

Great groove, my head started nodding from the first bars  Has very nice rocking 60's feel, some early Beatles and some late Beatles and some raw sound of the Rolling Stones too. Janne Hey Janne Thanks for the listen and kind words

Like the others have said, I dig the groove, and I love that 60's feel. Vocals are crisp, present, and "on." Thanks for posting this cool tune.

Yeah, great groove!
Man, your vocals get me every time! Wish I could sing like that. Nice hearing you play some guitar in there too.
Good song, it definitely deserved to be born and would be worth spending some time on the mix too I think. Thanks, I think that I really like the raw energy feel and would be afraid that if I re-recorded that it might clean up too much. thanks for the kind words, would love to have you play guitar on something in the future Yes, the feel is always the most important thing. I've got an old song, first one Chris and I did together actually, that badly needs a better mix but whenever I mess with it it loses the feel. Sure, I would be happy to do a guitar track for you sometime. I certainly understand that I'll contact you and send a song soon (when I get over this cough/crud flu junk)

Greg. I completely agree. This is your best to date IMHO. I'll take a track like this over any super polished until dull track any day! You should do more like this.

"And it’s a kiss
Sweeter than sugarcane
We got love baby
Stronger than a hurricane
Ooh
Stronger than a hurricane"
Man, does that ever stick with you.
It's so weird at times how something in a song can suddenly take you to another place. The first couple words here took me immediate to Long Time Coming with Crosby's voice.
Dunno why but it was a good memory!
Demo? Whatever...like Bob said the energy and live groove are powerful.
We said it...everybody has said it. Your voice is a wonderful instrument. Instantly recognizable in a great way. It and the guitar performance just drive this thing.
Over the top cool listen!
J&B
thanks guys, Long Time Coming "It's been a long time comin', gone to be a long time gone" Almost cut my hair, must be cause I had the flu for Christmas (am I remembering that right?) I appreciate ya'lls support and kind words and anytime you want to record this song just let me know.
