This is a good message presented in a most joyous sound. Your vocals are so good and also reminiscent of Beatles harmonies. The clarinet is a gem. Your guitar sounds excellent as expected.

These lines in particular stand out to us:

“You've seen the world but you can't see me
When you're around you're always leaving”

“It's got me looking out a window into the past
Chasing distant shadows and things that won't last”

What an unexpected treat!

Torrey,
There`s such a positive, joyful feeling about this song ( another very good write with Ron).
The clear moral in the tale and bouncy pop mood are reminiscent of White Album era Beatles... even that nice addition of clarinet to your signature guitar sound has that magic too.
Superb production qualities round out a most enjoyable listen: very, very well done!

Hui Torrey,

I told you, you won't be silent till next year.
But you believed it yourself! What question lies beneat that?

Whatever, this is a very good song and it sounds so familiair too. But I couldn't grab where I heard it before.
I was thinking in the same direction as Robert wrote (Beatles), but don't know for sure.
Nevertheless, your vocals shine and the song is powerful, as I have come to expect from you ;-)

I liked it a lot,
Hans

Thanks Hans! I feel the verses have a familiar sound but I can't place it either! I was very certain I was done for the year, but the opportunity arose for Ron and I to do this one and I took it! T

Really nice change up Torrey. What a cool groove to the song. Super vocal and lyric. Clarinet was a really nice add. Clarinet was my very firet instrument I learned. Super mix and production. Guitar was awesome. Well done

Torrey,

This is the perfect Torrey sound.
The clarinet and ukulele are also rare.
Vocals and harmonies are great as always.
I feel a little Paul McCartney in this tune.

Best regards.

Got to this late, but glad I heard it!

There's so much to like here! Every couple of measures, there was be some sonic candy to discover.

Catchy tune, excellent arrangement, well sung. Sticks in my head when the song is done.

Love it! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Another classic sounding pop song with nice lyrics, the borrowed title is used elegantly.
The clarinet is a nice addition, reminds me of Sgt. Pepper (When I'm Sixty Four).
Beautiful melody with the guaranteed Torrey progression.
Wonderful vocals and harmonies.
Excellent mix, especially the drums sound lush. Enjoyed the lead guitar playing once again.
