https://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/one-more-sunriseSometime back I put up an instrumental under this title and a few of you said they looked forward to hearing this one with lyics/vocals, so here it is! It's the first one that I've posted that doesn't have any BIAB realtracks involved. The instrumental did have but I only used BIAB for a scratchpad of sorts to get this together which is another great thing about the program. It can serve various purposes such as the aforementioned scratch pad or finished production. This is a song that falls in the Contemporary Jazz/Pop genre. It's a song of thankfulness and a true expression of my heart! Thanks for giving it a spin! T Me Vocals Guitars Synth One More Sunrise Words and music by Torrey Bliss Lord You give me everything I ever need How can I ask You for more I know that You have opened doors that I could never see And bless me much more than I deserve Oh Lord this time all I want Is for You just to know When I'm dry Lord You send the rain When I hurt oh You heal my pain When I'm cold You warm me again When I fall You still forgive Each morning it's true Your mercies are new I love You Lord and I want to thank You For One more sunrise Lord when I think of where I was before Without Your grace and all alone And how You came that night, when I called on Your name I've never been the same Now all my heart, Lord it's Yours Let me thank You again When I'm dry Lord You send the rain When I hurt oh You heal my pain When I'm cold You warm me again When I fall You still forgive Each morning it's true Your mercies are new I love You Lord and I want to thank You For One more sunrise You are aware of every breath we take When people let us down every heartache And the tears in our eyes You'll lead us to a much brighter day Once more I want to thank you Lord for all you've done When I'm dry Lord You send the rain When I hurt oh You heal my pain When I'm cold You warm me again When I fall You still forgive Each morning it's true Your mercies are new I love You Lord and I want to thank You For One more sunrise

Torrey,
This is nicely done. Being able to top write (add lyrics to an existing track) is a valuable ability. Good write. Nice melody. The background vocals are super. I like when you hit that falsetto, too!...
Sounds good. A really nice Pop-RnB kind of sound to it..
Stayed in my head after it was done...

Excellent track! What I found most interesting is that you said that it was originally an instrumental, now made into a song. The cool thing about that is I don't think one would create this melody, with all its interesting swoops and intervals, if it didn't start as a purely instrumental piece---that path took you in a very unique direction when you put words to it. Came out stellar, really enjoy your work!

Very cool stuff.
BIAB as a writing/arrangement "scratch pad" is my favourite use of the program.
Your own tracks are, as expected, on point.
Melody is memorable as always.
In the chorus your voice is a little behind the snare.
Lovely work.
Cheers

Catchy, 70s tune that stuck in my head. I found myself just flowing with the tune. Your usual top quality work here, I really enjoyed it. One of the best artists on the Showcase.

Hi Torrey
Personally, I find writing lyrics for an existing tune a real challenge. Amazing job. And your vocal is terrific.

Leon

Hi Torrey ...
Well, the previous accolades covered most of what I was going to say. Love that hard-hitting intro. The drums are solid throughout and really drive this. You're voice truly shines on this one. The b/g vocals are so dang good!
I wish I had half your talent! with just half your talent, I'd be twice as good as I perceive myself to be. Good message with a some fine music.
Wishing you the very best, my friend. Please be safe ...
Alan

Nice work transitioning from an instrumental to a complete vocal production...no doubt that required a lot of thought and effort. This may sound odd  but the song reminds us of a mashup of Guy Penrod (former Gaither Vocal Band member) from the vocal perspective and Steely Dan for the over all vibe. Beautifully performed with heartfelt vocals and lyric. Well done! J&B

Amazing musicianship throughout,(who needs a backing band when you can do it all!).
Really nice melody, and vocal and clever lyric writing to an instrumental.
Excellent.

Wonderful song Torrey!!! Love the concept and you nailed it! I always love your sense of melody, and your production style!! This reminds me a bit of Todd Rundgren, one of my faves from back in the day! A real treat!!! Take care. Greg
