https://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/bridge-of-loveAs we enter 2018 I want to get back to the music I grew up on. I was going for a late 60's early 70's vibe in this. This came about when I asked my little grand daughter how old she thought I was and she said "about 80". I laughed but thought, I am looking old on the outside but on the inside I'm still a teenager! I guess I'm trying to prove it here!

Very nice straightforward pop song, I really enjoy your young sounding vocals  . Lots of nice George Harrison feel in chording and the guitar solo. Excellent overall production. Not just 60's or 70's vibe, I can hear also modern influences. Janne

60's and 70's is the music I grew up on too. And yeah, you never feel old on the inside, funny how that works.
Great stuff Torrey, very commercial sound. I like the harmony guitars!

As I listen to your song, I could say you seems a super teen-ager!!! We are middle-aged but we are much younger than some today young people.
Very nice song. Great performance as usual. I feel a bit of George Harrison's style in this song.
Happy new year

I also am a product of 60 and 70's music. I grew older but I never grew up!
This is super all the way. Great backing tracks, super vocals and lyrics along with some great guitar playing.
This is a winner.

Super, Torrey!
A really nice pop write. Terrific melody - very catchy. Your vocals in this are excellent.
Super mix. Nice guitar work throughout. Great drum sound and a good punchy bass. Everything is well balanced. I hear the 60s/70s influences, but it struck me as having a Rundgren feel to it - I think he might be pleased to call this his...
Worth several listens.

Torrey, I can hear the influences, but you have developed a sound which is instantly recognizable as your own and its showcased beautifully here. You write really memorable melodies- this is one of your best. Fantastic guitar, a high energy vocal and excellent mix... will head over to your cd preview.

Thanks Scott for all the nice words! The guitar lead parts are just a lead line on one track and then I came back and played a harmony line on a second track with some distortion on them. Thanks, T

Great stuff Torrey, very commercial sound. I like the harmony guitars! My thoughts too. I really enjoyed this. I always enjoy your vocals, they never get old to me. You captured the 70's vibe really well. I can hear a lot of various influences throughout the song and that keeps my interest. Charlie
