Excellent guitar break and vocals.
Enjoyed it.

That's a good song. Pretty solid biblical write that teases one who knows the hymn this one shadows well without getting too close to the other.
Nicely done.

Hi Torrey,
Yes I also love the 6/8 timing - suits the song and genre perfectly.
I particularly liked the singing and lead break.
Best Regards Nigel Thanks Nigel for stopping by and having a listen! I appreciate it! T

Nice tune. "There's still room left for you" - good hook line. You mixed everything well. Good use of the band too, especially that electric guitar during break. Thanks jptjptjpt, I appreciate the kind words! T

I'm glad that I didn't miss this one. Everything is spot on. Great vocal and guitar chops, super tone on that axe.
The lyrics are the icing on the cake, loved them.
A great song - loved it.

Two words apply to every song you post, Torrey: Professional and Talented. Man, you always stay on that high-standard. Each and every piece in the mix sits so well. Yes, this is different from you in many ways, but those remain constant. Very creative in your mathematical approach to BGVs works perfectly. Such a good write.

Torrey, masterfully done musical piece. I think 6/8 worked very well, there is absolutely no feeling that it was forceful, sooth all the way. Very good vocals and mix. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Very cool intro Torrey. Loved the dip into the minor chords. Gave the song such a cool vibe. The timing on those descending chords was perfect. Very difficult to do. Guitar was awesome as well as the vocal. Really really well done.. Thanks Scott for taking time to listen and comment! T

"Oh, it's the truth."Amen. The intro, the build to the chorus, the guitar solo, the drums into the final chorus - this is excellent.  I really like your vocal - it's a good register for you, and to be honest, I didn't really recognize your voice until the high notes, because that's where your voice is most distinctive (sort of like Eric Woolfson in that regard). Good write, too. Someone mentioned Elvis Costello, and the pedal guitar reminds me of his "flirting with country" phase. But mostly, it's a good Gospel song with a positive message, and that's what I enjoyed the most about it. Thanks David! I really appreciate your comments! T

Yes, definitely different for you, I didn't recognize your voice at first. I got a Paul Simon with the Dixie Hummingbirds feel to it, too bad you can't hire an entire choir. Another great job and I would be surprised with anything less. Really enjoyed it! Thanks TuneMonger! I always appreciate your comments! T

OMG I LOVED it! You sing so well, and the overall song is a blast. I really appreciated the chord changes and how you toyed with the drums to create many layers of rythms.

Hi Torrey,
You are very active with all the songs I see coming from your hand. And this one is a bit different from your other songs, but also terrific! I like your vocals very much. The piano also has a very nice/good full sound. I am searching fore some time to achieve this sound. Tell me your secret...

Torrey,
Excellent.
A strong write. Good vocals (as always). BGVs, too.
The mix is really well balanced. ALL the instruments are strong and clear. The vocals are perfectly placed in the mix.
The piano sounds great. Drums sound great. Bass is smooth and supportive. Nice guitar work (of course).
Good stuff, start to finish. Well done. Excellent Music.
fj
Thanks Floyd! Your comments are always appreciated! T
