Sorry about this, I believe it is called procrastinating, the wonderful sunny weather in the UK after what seems like months of rain, had seen me trying to get my garden ready for summer. This evening, while relaxing after a busy day, I came across this song - a track I had to cover using the new VOICE feature from Suno. (it also needed a correction to the lyric). I feel much better about it now,...

The weekends, I find, are a very quiet time om Sound Cloud. So I decided to take the opportunity to upload a couple more poems (set to music). There is a story that resulted in this poem - something that rarely happens with my "songs" which tend to be triggered by a phrase or similar which I come across and feel it would make a decent lyric. Some years ago, I spent a weekend in Brighton, here in t...

A little pretentious piece. I just decided to add another poem to the album. I never used a journal jar myself, but joined many challenges from web sites I belonged to at one time. I wanted a female voice for this poem and selected a VOICE/persona which I had created from a classical piece of music. I was a little surprised by the result but came to accept if not to like it. Love to know how you f...

This is a song I wrote in the late sixties (sorry I keep guessing, I did not keep very good records in my youth) but I was always unhappy about not being able to find a rhyme for the last line of the bridge. I was listening to an old playlist/album and this lyrical issue again jarred with me. As I was busy around the home I was late with another new song, so of course I decided to do a cover with...

Realised that I did not have a Suno version of this acoustic song. So using the recent v5.5 and the voice feature, covered an original live recording of this track (written & performed by myself, solo) Suno was prompted to add a little extra instrumental support with a Spanish guitar. Hope you like it

This is a very old song, which I had not paid much attention to over the years; but it jumped out at me as being suitable for testing the VOICE cloning feature. I see to remember that when I wrote it, I was inspired by a similarly named song by a new band from Australia. Yep, The Bee Gees.

Another cover of one of my original songs, Near the end of my trial of the Suno Voice feature. Saw a comment on FB today that claimed the voice was not actually a clone; it was more probably the closest pick by Suno from its library of voices that sounded like the supposed voice to be cloned. I have to say that mirrors my own experience. Depends very much on the song genre/style. May need to creat...

A cover of one of my early songs using the new Suno Voice feature. This has proved to be a little "hit & miss"; on this track definitely a miss. Suno video for the release of the Voice feature (beta so far) did warn that it one should train the AI with an audio clip in the same genre as the song to be generated! Here I sang in my normal voice on the training clip but this track has turned out a li...

Sorry, I know I said the last but watching the re-entry of Artemis flight last night, I just had to add one more. BTW I wanted a rhyme with "until" for that last line and it had to fit the line structure, and for some reason Michael Jackson was on my mind - so Jacksonville simply fitted the bill, no other reason!

Although a similar title to the previous track, this is a very different track. A very light-hearted poem; written whilst on my way to work one day, in the rain. This is the last of this little set of poems used for the exercise with v5.5.

Based on a poem written shortly after storm Katrina hit New Orleans, some years ago now.

I keep saying, "This is one of my favourites"; I have so many. I just wanted to have this with my own cloned voice - so here it is. I will get used to hearing myself singing my own songs soon and get round to writing some more. I am probably doing too many covers/remixed tracks/etc

A poem I wrote whilst on a short holiday, in the hotel room; inspired by the art on the walls.

Playing with random prompts, on a writers web site. I used to try for at least one poem a day on a 30 day challenge

Another poem from a prompt, on a 30 day challenge

Still playing with the cloned voice feature in Suno. All the songs I have tried so far use a similar style. This time I have chosen a rock number from 60's/70's, this track is a cover of a track which I uploaded to Sound Cloud a few years ago; so the music and lyrics are mine, Suno has done the heavy lifting and caught the acoustic Uke stumming very well. Hope you like this version.

A "folk" song written in the late sixties, lyrics by me, tune/melody very close to my original and the guitar melody (picked) in the intro written and played by me in the original. The solo is developed from the intro by Suno. This cover is of the original "me and my uke" version also posted to SC, although there is another cover with an earlier Suno version. I have made this second cover for two...

This is a story of how to defeat fear by considering the personification of that which causes you fear. From a poem by myself and set to music in Suno, using a clone of my own voice. I love the piano in this, which builds, along with the vocals to the end of the piece. Hope you like it, worth listening, worth listening past 2.30 min.

Another of the experiment with the new "Voice" feature in Suno. Not the most successful and varies from the first part to the more up-tempo, heavier second part. Cloning can be successful if the uploaded audio clip is similar (genre / style) to the song to be featured. It is a beta release, and may be better in the long term. Apart from this I love this track, which uses my original melodies in th...

Another old song, with my own voice cloned

I covered this old song of mine to experiment with Suno v5.5 and the new "Voice" feature, uploading a 30 sec audio clip for Suno to clone my own voice. Ths can be used just like the older "Persona" feature, which are still available as stored voices. Hope you like this version.

Now appearing, my own voice cloned with the technology introduced by Suno AI, in version 5.5 of it's very excellent software. Yep, you heard it here, though I spent a lot of time uploading acapella versions of me singing songs , to Suno. IN order to hear those songs with their original memories. This was done in v3.5; and gave a very good attempt at cloning. Although, it did alter the vocal to mat...

The story here, comes from the fact that I simply enjoy browsing thru 2nd hand bookshops. Well, I guess I have to apologise - for dropping yet another new song (well a poem set to music really). I am completely carried away with this current project, educating myself (via AI agent) in the art of prompting Suno. Yes I know I have spent the last couple of years generating songs on Suno, however I st...

I was so pleased with the last posting (Faded Flowers) that I decided to try the same experiment again. In fact there is a good reason to work through both songs together, as they are both allegories for a failed/failing relationship. The difference is that (the experiment if you like) is that I have been taking lessons from an AI app in the practical use of Suno prompts. Although I have been lear...
