https://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/big-paper-bibleHe can't just write his notes in any bible...Its got to be a $1 paper cover bible! This is a rework of a song David Snyder and I did a couple years ago. David had the idea for this and gave me the opportunity to put it together! We both wrote lyrics for this. David wrote the first and last verses and chorus. I wrote the second verse and pre-chorus sections. David contributed the sitar sound and some of the zany vocal stuff that make this song happen for me! I got a new Mojave Audio condenser mic this week and used this tune for my first song with it. This one has the most tracks I've used in a song, almost 50. I switched out the drums from the original song and replaced with some that give the song more snap. Some folks said they hear Beatles references in this...I just don't get it LOL. Actually this song has connections to 4 Beatles/McCartney songs! Two are obvious and 2 are more obscure. I really appreciate my musical brother David and his contribution to this. He's got talent!! Anyway I really appreciate you folks giving this another spin and hope you enjoy it! BIAB - Pop Rhythm B3 Organ 686 (In the chorus section) Drums - DOD Me - Vocals, Guitars, Bass, Organ, Percussion and Synths David -Vocals and Sitar Big Paper Bible Words and music by David Snyder and Torrey Bliss Copyright 2021 He's wanting a bible that he can write on So he won't forget when his wife isn't home To help him remember what he has done wrong Or write the words to a new worship song But a leather bound edition to write on is a sin A cover made of paper is where he must begin He wants a paper bible, big paper bible Paper bible, big paper bible He can't touch the one in the lighted case Or mark it all up with what he can't erase But help can be found at the dollar store The place where a dollar buys you the written word With a pack of colored pencils he's gonna change the world With notes and commentary like we've never heard Chorus He's got to have it to share the good news With anyone out there who might have the blues It could be someone at the grocery store He'll have the answer that they long for He'll write it on the paper to which he will refer To seize the opportunity to share the word chorus

Torrey & David ...
Now, that's a real attention-getter!
Loved the chord run-up to the chorus. I'm very fond of diminished chords and this is a great example of how to use them effectively. The entire production is simply awesome - significantly above my music level. Nice vocal effects and, as always, your musicianship really shines, Torrey. And David, you write some very interesting and thought-provoking lyrics. A stellar collab! Congrats, gentlemen, on a super prject!
Wishing you both the very best in 2021.

Great collaboration! Excellent production, and wonderfully dense/elegant texture of sound, lyric, voice. Interesting and unique storyline as well. Two top-notch talents working together--what could be better than that!

Torrey and David.
Jaw-droppingly good.
Cool, cool lyric. Love the beatlesque melodies! And the complexity that goes with that. Awesome vocals.
KILLER sound. Torrey - you are a hell of a producer (and writer and singer and player). Excellent mix. You "make music" - not just "write songs"...
And there are few as original as The Mr. Snyder.
A real pleasure to hear.

Torrey & David, That`s one of the best pop/rock productions ever heard here; every element sooo tight and energised! The write I remember- it has humour which really adds spice to the theme and of course, is right in line with the Beatlesquesness. An absolutely fabulous collaboration.

fj I agree with Floyd and I couldn't have said it so eloquently. You both should be very proud of this one.

within you without you paperback writer beatles birthday ?
The vocals sound great . Are you happy with your new mic? ( i'm in the market for one). Your considerable producer skills are evident here being able to tame 50 tracks and their attendant plug ins . Must have given your computers cpu a good workout. btw I'm told that 16G of ram is the minium for music production thes days. But I digress. I like that C A D B tension building run up to the E chorus. This song is of radio ready quality and I can imagine that if the words of the super catchy chorus were changed to a product , this song would scream out to be used as a commercial. $'s. Excellent song and production. cheers Gary.

Torrey and David,
that is incredibly good - like Floyd wrote: jaw-dropping.
Not a single bar I would not like tremendously; the 'Paperback Writer' style guitar riff: fantastic. Vocals lead BGV) - top notch. Great write, perfect backing track, flawless sounding - that's radio stiff, gentlemen!
A marvellous collab, gentlemen - hats off!
Stefan

I think I heard a subliminal message in the first part of the song ;-).. Excellent collaboration Torrey. Super vocal and just loved the guitars in the song. Well done...
