  • I'm not familiar with the movie, but that hardly matters, the images you've painted are so vivid!

    A heavy rock opera vibe to this one. Suno has done very well with the transitions between the various parts.

    And there's progression and…

  • I love how dramatic the music is for this one. It's a really tight fit with the lyric.

    Great storytelling. Really like the chorus, especially that final line.

    I'd love to see the outro tie the fate of the two vessels together somehow.…

  • Great song Tammy! Not surprised the radio station took it up! And how lovely that your daughter recognized how important it was to you and made you that lovely surprise gift. I would feel delighted if that were me.

    Great rhyming in this one…

  • @TammyB That's a wonderful song. Happy to remind you of that one. But I have to say I don't see the similarity mysel…

  • @StoneFlowers Yes, came up with the title and built the story out around that. Fortunately not based on …

  • Thank you Tammy, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    I'm afraid I can't say which rock song it could be reminding you of. But this is literally a 3 chord song, very basic melodically, and it's likely to share attributes with many others because of tha…

  • Kayla, I've taken the liberty of suggesting some changes here. I hope that doesn't upset you. Use it or lose it as you see fit. Not suggesting this is the "right" way to do it, just how I would modify it to make things clearer for the li…

  • Thanks Sid! Yes, nice to be posting something. Inspiration has been elusive of late!

  • Thanks Bill. I used ChatGPT for inspiration, and evocative phrases, but cohesion, flow, sequence were things I brought to the table. And my own phrases! So some similarities with your experience.

  • Yeah, that's a lot coming at once. I hope turning it into song helped you to cope with it, at least a little.

  • I like the storm metaphor. I think that works well. There's a lot more structure in this one, and I like to see that. I think it helps. I can imagine this being set to music much more easily.

    I didn't really understand the chorus. The "song…

  • You make me feel the love.

    And yes, Suno did a great job on bringing out the soul of it musically.

    Lovely, Tammy, great job on this.

  • Wow! That's like a theatrical performance or an opera. It feels huge.

    Wildly emotional and almost grotesque imagery.

    Intensely creative. That's a special one.

  • Definitely has a 50s/60s European feel. I can imagine Charles Aznavour singing this.

    Things are never the same when we return.

  • That's surreal. Light hearted melody, vivid color images drifting into horror. And a play on words with "take my eye".

    I can't help but imagine you sitting with a wry grin wondering what people will make of these songs!

  • You can still write the songs, Elvis! Darn good ones. The professional recordings may not give you the return though now.

  • Strikes me as being funny / sad / pitiable.

    This character's life seems like a mess!

    Strong visuals throughout, I can picture this person. I may have met them!

    I like the blues treatment you've chosen for it too.

  • Lovely lyric!

    I wasn't sure of this line at first: "That leaves you in control of having no control at all" but hearing it, it works perfectly.

    Have to agree with the others re the music. The chorus needs to rise into passion, but I …

  • Line 1 "In other words you did lie to my face" makes me feel like I'm coming in, in the middle of an argument. Gives it a feeling of energy and dynamism straight away. Not as keen on "you did lie", I think "you lied" would feel more conversationa…

  • Kayla your lyrics are always chock full of emotion, and I suspect that's your priority.

    Your structure is always fairly loose. That might work in a hip-hop or modern style, there's quite a bit of flexibility there, or it might not, I can't …

  • Don't really know what to make of that! Is it comedic? The contrast is strong between events and tone. I'm probably not the right audience to appreciate it.

  • I've moved this to the Covers section.

    I'm like Sid, I can hear this being sung as a work song where repetition makes it easier for everyone to join in. As a stand alone song it feels a bit repetitious - at least to me.

    Nice to hear …

  • I'm afraid I don't get it. I don't understand why it started about "you" then switched to "me" or what the problems are. To me, the song feels like it was written for yourself, who already understands it, more than to convey something to someone …

  • Charlotte's web is a lovely title, and of course benefits from (and contrasts with!) the children's book. I'd like to see a bit more of that in the chorus. You might pinch one of the lines from elsewhere and insert it:

    Words, a cu…

  • Your signature style! Nice catchy rhythm. I like the lyric on this.

    You might consider adding one more "All together" on the outro.

  • Soon as I saw the title I knew what this was going to be about! Very meta 😁 One for we members here on TSF.

    Thanks Sid!

  • Haunting sound! I like this a lot.

    The guitar solo felt a bit long to me. Don't know how much control you have over that.

    I liked "Many paths now single". It made me feel that someone's world had narrowed down to just the present mome…
