Sometime back I did an instrumental I called "Sedona Sunrise". I took the melody from that song and added lyrics to produce this song about realizing we are headed the wrong direction and turning around. Hope someone likes it. Thanks for listening! Torrey

It's hard not to reply with a phrase that doesn't start with 'Wow!'

Great quality, professionalism, style, masterful songwriting and the list goes on and on.

The feel is just so stylish, the funky style complemented with smooth lyrical delivery expands the horizons throughout this song.

The subtle key change provides another dimension again.

Excellent and Quality are words that easily come to mind from the start to the end.

Beautiful and mellow bass-driven soul, perfect for my taste smile Excellent vocals and mix, nice lyrics. Really enjoyable wakeup song for a Sunday morning.

Torrey, great job on this well sung, and well constructed song. I love the little walk downs on the guitar solo and then the modulation. Handled extremely well. Some great guitar work too. Loved it all. Pro all the way, Tom

Loved this Torrey. Another super vocal and backtrack. Loved the bass runs in the song. Gave it such a neat feel. Guitar was absolutely excellent. Very cool indeed

Torrey,
This was classy as an instrumental - the addition of your soulful vocals and heartfelt lyrics adds another layer. Did you record the guitar solo again? - its so fine here.
Very, very good!

I could not say this any better! Excellent song, backing tracks and production. About that guitar of yours, all I can say is WOW. Great chops and tone!

If I heard this at a CD store I would have bought it on the spot.

This is a keeper.

Janice mentioned Steely Dan from the get go. Yeah!

Whether your choice or a style that is a GREAT choice of RTs. Your “bands” always sound so well honed for the groove.

Throw the fine write and guitar/vocal performances in and you have a pro sounding production -certainly not unusual for you! It sounds superb on our sound system.

Kudos

You absolutely nailed this, Torrey! It is captivating right from the first few beats, and just continues to impress from thereon out. I'm getting a strong 80's vibe with this one. It reminds me of some stuff by Phil Collins. Great beat, wonderfully catchy, and a strong vocal performance - not a thing I'd change here!

Great work, and thanks for sharing smile

Right out of the gate this song has such a lovely vibe to it. This song reminds me ever so slightly of Savage Garden a little bit, if they sang in a lower register. Great job on this one.


Cheers,
Ember
