Walk All The Way To The Moon


The sun comes up with a blinding light
but there’s no guarantees
I always look to the sky Like a sailor to the sea
Trying to make one last escape
let’s make our move tonight
Based on all the evidence
I think we’ll be alright

Boundaries blurred by the path of light
walk all the way to the moon
We can save what’s left of us
Lord I hope we get there soon


None of my business what you think of me
I guess I could care less though you may disagree
it’s always been it’s nothing new
That's what the old ones say
we’re simply passing through
Like rain moving cross the bay

Boundaries blurred by the path of light
walk all the way to the moon
We can save what’s left of us
Lord I hope we get there soon

Merry Xmas Tom!!! And thanks for this present!!! This sounds like a 70's classic. Great groove. Love the power chords and great solo. Some absolutely wonderful lines throughout. LOVE everything about it!!! You're finishing the year strong. Take care, and Happy New Year!! Greg

Tom

Sounds amazing! Wonderful playing and singing- great composition.
Superb stuff.

Peter

Definitely some heavy rockin' out. Like it a lot.

This is a great listen, Tom.

A good Rock write. Everything about it works - at every moment.

Brings to mind every classic rock band one can think of - yet doesn't seem like a "copy" of any one in particular. That's cool - a little ZZ Top, a little AC/DC, a little BTO (mixed with some Guess Who), a little Skynyrd..

The mix is exceptional. Powerful instruments and a clean, clear vocal - professional in every way. Exceptional guitars! Love the stop! Super lead.

And... for a Country guy, you do one heck of a Rock vocal!

Top-notch.

floyd

Tom,

Great guitar driven sound- that chorus hook is so catchy and your vocal has just the right amount of attitude.
Loved this!

Robert

Great Sound

Rockin', I heard all the ones that Floyd mentioned, esp. that Skynyrd guitar crunch.

super mix,

enjoyed the listen!

Kenny

Cool tune. Some excellent chord progressions. I agree with Floyd. I grew up on the Guess Who and BTO and definitely has that vibe. Well done

Enjoyed this one a lot. Another well written, arranged and performed masterpiece. Happy New Year.

Happy New Year to you too! Thanks for all the great things you say about my songs. I truly appreciate it. Tom Peter, thanks for the kind words. It means a lot to me. Tom

Agree with the other posts on some of the bands this reminded me of.

I even got a "Hot Blooded - Foreigner" vibe on the verses a little bit.

I liked this a lot. Great work!

Tom, you have ended 2017 with some smokin' hot stuff! Guitars sound very, very good on this! Just a great production all the way around! Good to hear a rocker from you 'cause you can get the job done! Thanks, Torrey

Donna, Glad you liked it. Thanks, Tom floyd, This one was a lot of fun for me. Going way back, for me Rock came first, then Blues, then Country. It all bleeds together somewhat. Thanks for the wonderful review. I certainly value your comments, Tom

Rockin' man!!!

Happy New Year!

YEAH!!!! Great hearing you rock out!

Guitars are perfect, as is the vocal. And the mix! Totally pro as usual.

Great song, better than most of the music I hear on my local rock radio station these days.

Oh yeah!! We are down with the hint of early Skynrd - the good original band. This sounds like it would fit perfectly on any radio classic rock show. It’s that good.

As you responded to floyd...rock to blues to country. And you retain the goodness of them all.

Great write, vocal and signature TA production to top it all off.

J&B

Great rocker Tom.
Love the lyrics and the title and "save what's left of us".
Cheers.

Robert, thanks for the nice review. Tom Glad you liked it. Thanks, Tom

Scott, Glad you came by. I appreciate your comments, Tom Charlie, Happy New Year to you too. Thanks for all the nice things you say about my songs, Tom

Nice!! TURN IT UP!!!!

Steve, Thanks for giving it a spin. Tom Torrey, Thank you for the kind words. Glad you liked it. Tom

The solo reminds me of Skinny Leonard. The chords in the verses reminded me a lot of Boston.

Really liked the riff based chorus.

Probably the best hard rock use of BB I recall hearing.

Nice work.

David, thanks and I can’t wait to hear what you come up with in the new year. Tom Dave, glad you liked it, Tom

What a really great way to kick off the new year! This was such a rockin' song. I really enjoy this one!

Sweet groove! Excellent production and performance. Love the power chords.

Great composition.

I agree with everything that has been said thus far.

I will add great chops man!

Two thumbs up!

Hi, Tommy !:))


What a superb ROCKER !
You have a voice that
goes very well with
good ol´rock´n roll and
I like it !

A Happy New Year to you too !!!

Cheers
Dani

I could have been listening to Bryan Adams here.

Great driving rock beat. Plenty to like about this song.

J&B, thanks for the nice review. Tom Richard, glad you mentioned the lyrics. It got a little out there but I went with it. Thanks, Tom Eddie, this was one of those that takes on a little something extra when it’s cranked. Thanks, Tom

Tom,

A great original sound! I really love the way this one feels - the vocal is outstanding and the band is tight. Excellent all around!

Bob

Glad you liked it Herb, Tom Ember, thanks for giving it a spin. I appreciate it. Tom

Glad you enjoyed it, Tom Thanks Mario. I appreciate it, Tom Thanks Dani. I'm glad you came by, Tom

Trevor, Thank you for the kind words. Happy you liked it, Tom Bob, Glad to see you here. Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom,

Nearly missed this one!

It's great to see more people rocking on the forum these days and rock doesn't
come much better than this.

Fabulous guitars, especially the solo.

Your vocals just get better and better - you've really got a great voice for this
type of track.

Classic Rock through and through.

ROG.

ROG, Thanks! Glad you made it by, Tom

Hello, Tom

Great Rock tune! Big fun!
I entirely agree with Greg.
This sounds like a 70's classic.
Great groove.
Love the power chords and great solo.
And also your vocals.
Splendid!

All the best for 2018!

Shigeki Adachi

Tom,

What an outstanding track. When it comes to rock it's one of the genres that you really excel at.

I apologise for missing this the first time through. It zipped past me and I wasn't even aware that it'd had been on the forum.

This song is such a fine tribute to your production chops, your singing chops, your arranging chops, and instrumental chops.

Excellent.

Regards,
Noel

"tommyad"...

(From the latest headlines, hot off our presses:) "Extra, extra, read all about it! Armada of killer guitars from outer space land on Earth, bringing message of "louder is better", and proceed to blow out our eardrums! See fleeing crowds popped upside the head by perilously potent power chords! Watch rockers being run down by hair-raisingly righteous riffs! President declares state-of-emergency in his pajamas while playing air guitar and lip-syncing in the Oval Office! Could this be "the end", friends ???

Really dug your lyric imagery: "I always look to the sky like a sailor to the sea", and "...like rain moving across the bay", and "boundaries blurred by the path of light". Like, far-freakin'-out, dude !!!

If this is rock, it's certainly "hard" as one, baby!

Off the hook, "tommyad"!
