Torrey,
A terrific listen.
A beautiful sentiment and a beautiful write - solid.
"You cant be everything to everyone But you can be something to someone"
Nice.
The production is a match for the quality of the lyric. Parts of the melody are "familiar", but are more "glimpses of influence" than anything else. And they really work to keep the ear engaged.
Excellent vocal. Excellent mix. Crisp and clear. Nice "drop" at the end, too!
fj I agree with all of that!! Excellent!! I think the "familiar" aspect comes from a few chord changes which were relatively "signatures" of songs from an era circa 1970. Love this!! One of my faves of your! Take care. Greg

Beatle feel but even more, IMHO, recalled The Air that I Breathe by the Hollies. Really impressive on every level, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Kenny! I appreciate your comments more than you know! I think you are an awesome talent who is humble and doesn't realize how gifted you are! I have no doubt you could create musically whatever you set you mind to! Thanks, Torrey

Torrey,
I can’t match the melody to any song I know, so I think you’re fine there . . . but it certainly has elements reminiscent of a number of artists for me: Alan Parsons Project, Joe Jackson, Beatles, etc. But it stands on its own, unique and compelling.
Love this tune—magnetic melody, impressive vocal. So wonderfully done! Glad your foreseeable future changed quickly enough that from it came this song. A pleasure to listen to!
My humble regards,
Deej

Thanks for the listen Jim! I was more concerned with the melody in the verse section. But after reading the comments of several listeners I'm not so concerned. Somebody would have picked up on it by now! A wise man once said " there is nothing new under the sun". I guess we are all borrowing from someone else in all of these songs we write to some degree. We just try to make not so noticable! I appreciate your contributions to the forum with your music and comments! T

Thanks so much David! And thanks for the ELO comparison but oddly enough I never listened to much of Jeff Lynne's stuff! Except what I would hear on the radio.

This is about as Beatlesque as one can get. Paul and John singing with George's lead is what I though of right from the git go.
Torry you did an outstanding job in doing this while keeping it Torreyesque! Plus your backing tracks, lyrics, vocals and mix were perfect.
You should be very proud of this one.
Doc-take it easy John this is just a sharp scalpel. It will not cut deep so don't worry. Me-I'm not John Doc-I know, I am!

"You cant be everything to everyone But you can be something to someone"
There is a lot of wisdom packed into those two lines...
As mentioned there are lovely hints of post Beatles era McCartney and Harrison but ultimately it's a Torrey Bliss song all the way around.
And for us that means top notch vocals with rich harmony, classy guitar, a positive lyric, a great arrangement and all packaged within a fine mix.
Extra congrats for those wonderful harmonies.
Outstanding!
