Thanks Peter! I should mention that the piano, organ and drums are loops from Big Fish Audio! I wish I could play piano that well! T

Torrey,

So much going on in this tune that engages the ear and the mind. Solid write and production—a Steely Dan feel to this for me, but with a bit more of a pop twist. The vocal is sweet as well. Great work!

All my best,

Deej

Good job. All the instruments sound good. Nice sentiments in the lyrics. I like it.

99% of my songs start with the music first so BIAB is a valued too for me too.

I really like these lyrics. The first four lines really hit home.

I also need to mention how good the instrumentation is--so full and balanced.

Hi Torrey,

You song just has so many aspects, it's hard to pin down what to comment about first! It's a fine arrangement that has a 70's Player feel to it (I'm totally okay with this!), but also sounds modern with kind the feel of the Macy Gray song "I Try". The music, the vocals and the lyrics are all top notch.
Thanks for posting it, I enjoyed listening to it.

Hi Torrey,

Somehow I must have missed this song of yours. I'm pretty sure I was one of those asking for a singer in this song. If not, it could have been me. And I know why. You made a very nice song with this one, Torrey!
The only thing I'm wondering about is how you manage to sing that high!
I have enjoyed it very much.

Hans
