  • Yes, trust is sufficient. There's really no incentive for people to try to be deceptive. Perhaps someone would get get a kick out of fooling people, but it seems a pretty small victory. I would also say that most members have a recognizable style…

  • Sure. I mean that there are different ways to use AI. Some people only use a prompt: "Write me a song about seagulls on the wing" and the AI writes both Lyrics + Music - this isn't suitable for posting here on TSF. Prompting is its own skill, but…

  • Strong song, full of pride. I particularly liked:

    a man without knowledge is a ship

    Without a sail

    But "systemic system" felt a little redundant.

    I like the music you chose for this as well.

    Goo…

  • You are all entitled to your opinions, but not to derail this thread. This is for feedback on Bill's song. Please stay on track.

    If you feel the need to discuss the issue take it to the General Discussion area, though I would say that typic…

  • Thanks for the suggestion! It has been raised before, and the position we've reached is to treat AI generated music in the same way as lyrics only, which is to include it with all original songs. AI generated lyrics + music with only prompting is…

  • I interpreted it as someone who has killed his partner in a car crash and is dealing with the consequences. But I don't know if that is correct or not. I wouldn't describe it as clear.

  • Nice to see the happy ending, I wasn't sure which way this one was going!

    I like the birdsong at the start, not sure it needs the effects through the rest of the song though.

    This line felt very slightly cramped: "For oh, the sky may …

  • I like V2, I can see the personal progression there in each verse, but understated, not dominating it. Something to find if you look for it.

    Musically, I think Suno really kicks into gear at the Outro, very nice there!

    And the whole …

  • Cool! Looking forward to the next version!

  • The song really pivots at the outro, and that's a good thing. A "season's passing" theme is nice, but this is more meaningful.

    You've got the "family tree" mentioned in v1, and maybe the "sand castles" in V2 refers to childhood passing, but…

  • That's a harsh one! The bitterness is really coming through in the lyrics.

    Some mothers really do go above and beyond, focusing on improving their kids lives, even at the expense of their own.

    Structurally, I'm wondering whether you …

  • Strong rhymes! Otherwise, beyond me.

  • BTW, Sid told me he's having trouble posting comments at the moment, so don't take it wrong if there's a delay in any response from him

  • Strong story Sid! I like the lyric.

    But I have to say I hate what the AI did to the music. The tone feels all wrong to me, too upbeat, and the prosody is just all over the place.

    Should it be mafioso for a male rather than mafiosa?

  • Very different vibe to other songs of yours I've heard. I like the haunting atmosphere. Musically I think it's strong.

    The format seems like a list of all the devils that are here on earth, but I'm not really sure what you're saying about …

  • So 5 1 1 is 5ft 11in? That through me at first. Though I like how you've linked it with 9 1 1 .

    And the emergency on Austin Highway is the narrator feeling alone and helpless?

    The "how tall are you?" line does feel a little shallow, w…

  • That came out very well indeed. Very polished sound, on a strong lyric.

  • Those Cohen sisters had some chutzpah!

    Good fun song Sid. 😁

  • I like this Carroll. Strong opening, and all the verses hold up well.

    I'm not convinced you need the pre-chorus, I don't think it's adding much. I think you might be better extending the chorus, either with a direct repeat or a variation an…

  • Rather a bleak outlook! But some lives are sad ones.

    Held my attention all the way through. Like the way the song lingers on "fool".

    Appreciate if you could post the lyrics here on TSF, even when they are available on Youtube etc. Mak…

  • There should be an "Upload Image" button as you are creating your post, but don't use it too frequently please. Space is a limitation for the site, which is why all the music is uploaded elsewhere and just linked here.

  • Homework? No! A voyage of discovery!! 😁

  • No worries Elvis! You know what you want there.

  • Words ending in 'ck' and similar give a very clipped sound - hard to sing out on - and that can be an issue at the end of phrases. Good if you want an explosive type of sound, bad if you want a drawn out note. Use with caution.

  • I particularly liked these lines:

    There ain't nothing clearer

    Than the first look in the mirror 

    I'm not a fan of the repeat on "wreck" at the end of the chorus either. Sounds a bit harsh. I think you migh…

  • That's a tough one Tammy! I might choose Cat Stevens, and his albums: Tea for the Tillerman, and Teaser and the Firecat, when he was at his best.

  • Nice! And welcome to the forum.

    I like how you're using blue jeans as the signal for her change here. It's a specific detail that grounds it.

    There's a wistful, sweet sadness to it. And the love for her shines through without being st…

  • No worries! These are only ever suggestions along the lines of "have you thought about.." and clearly you have!

  • I like this. But I think the chorus needs something in between the direct repetition of the lines. Some kind of "it's not working" lines. And then maybe the final line could be "we’re breaking [pause] each other’s hearts." just to give it a littl…

  • I'm in the Version A camp, but that's of course up to you.

    Listening to this, I got to the post chorus: "But to me you’ve always been my number one!" and went, wait, this is a relationship song?

    I think you need to set that u…
