Peter And Andrew Fishing
U
Lyrics
[0:00–0:20 — FIRST PASS / SHORELINE, SIMPLE CALL] Matthew four, eighteen through twenty. And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. [Start dry and close with phone-mic tenor, faint room hiss, one muted acoustic strum, low bass pulse and distant clean electric-guitar shimmer. No full drums. Let the narrative move quickly but naturally. Slow down only for “Follow me.” Keep it direct and unadorned.] [0:21–0:58 — SECOND PASS / THE CALL GETS A POCKET] Matthew chapter four, verses eighteen through twenty. And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. [Bring in dusty boom-bap drums, warm bass guitar, fast muted acoustic strum loop, foot stomp, hand percussion and wide alt-rock guitar haze. Let the story lines flow fast, almost breathless.] [LEAD] And he saith unto them— [BEAT CUT] Follow me. [ONE ROUGH OFF-MIC VOICE] Follow. [LEAD] And I will make you fishers of men. [ACOUSTIC MICROBURST: one quick bright fingerpicked flourish after “men,” then back to the strum.] And they straightway left their nets— [MICRO-SILENCE] And followed him. [ROUGH CREW — ONE SHORT PUNCH] Followed him. [Move on immediately.] [0:59–1:27 — INTERLUDE / DROP THE NETS] Ooh. Yeah. Casting a net into the sea. [Let the bassline move underneath while the acoustic keeps its fast dry pulse.] For they were fishers. [PSYCHEDELIC MICROBURST: one reverse electric-guitar tail briefly pulls backward like a net being yanked, then snaps forward.] Follow me. [ALT-ROCK MICROBURST: one brief overdriven guitar bloom opens wide for two seconds, then collapses.] And they straightway left their nets. [ONE LOW VOICE] Left 'em. And followed him. [Let “followed him” get one quick imperfect tenor rise.] [1:28–2:10 — THIRD PASS / NO HESITATION] The gospel according to Matthew, chapter four, verses eighteen through twenty. And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. [Start with acoustic strum and close lead only. Add stomp, bass, boom-bap kick/snare, then wide electric haze. Let this pass feel more confident, not cleaner.] [LEAD] Follow me. [ONE ROUGH VOICE] Follow. [LEAD] And I will make you fishers of men. [ROUGH CREW — ONE WARM RESPONSE] Fishers of men. [No repeat.] And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. [Let that final line run quickly and cleanly over the groove.] [OUTRO] Ooh. Yeah. [No more scripture repetition. Let the fast acoustic loop ride under dusty drums, warm bass, foot stomps, hand percussion and wide electric shimmer. One friend claps late. Another hums rough harmony. Hard cut mid-strum.] [OVERALL VOCAL DIRECTION] [This track should feel like invitation turning immediately into motion. Male tenor stays dry, grainy, breathy and conversational with fast-flow indie-folk phrasing, quick imperfect runs and loose urban swagger. Acoustic guitar is a true rhythmic layer, but boom bap remains the spine. Let the narrative move fast, then slow the whole world for “FOLLOW ME.” Backup vocals sound like rough friends reacting from the room—low yeahs, worn oohs, late catches. Alt-rock appears as brief wide guitar blooms only. Psychedelic moments stay tiny: reverse guitar tails, tape bends, brief stereo smears. Avoid glossy folk-pop, polished CCM or bluegrass dominance. Raw, called, immediate, moving.]
