Lyrics:
Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your heartbeat with mine
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our love be so blind?
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are, by my side
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms
Living without you, living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home
But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms

What an amazing usage of Synth-V on one of my favourite ballads. Thank you for this.

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!

The song cover you created using Hayden's voicebank is truly delightful. I appreciate the way you modified Hayden's vocal notes in a manner that gives the impression he is performing his unique rendition rather than simply replicating the original. The harmonies you incorporated into the cover blend seamlessly, enhancing the overall musical experience. Keep up the great work! 😁

Is this the same voice as the one from "Synthesizer V AI Hayden Demo - Trainwreck"? It sounds so incredibily different (so much better!!). It could of course be partly because of the pitch of this song is much higher than their demo? I was really not impressed by their demo, as It seems his singing sounded slighly less professional than most voices (like lots of band singers, they can sing but they are not excelent at it). However, this demo is really so much more impressive! Well done! Did it need a lot of (manual) tweaking, or does it get close to this out of the box?

[@synthvoice3740]

Yes, it's the same voice from the "Trainwreck" demo. It may sound a bit different to you because I lowered the Gender parameter a little, and like you said, this song is a bit higher than the demo. To answer your question, while I think Hayden sounds decent "out the box", you do need to do some manual tweaking and get a little creative to make him sound realistic and alive. Otherwise, he just sounds bland.

@@synthvoice3740 ah right yes bland is exactly how I would descripe gis speling weakness too!

[@PowerRedBullTypology]

@@synthvoice3740 I hope we get a male solaria any time soon, that can sing anything and sounds great out of the box

[@synthvoice3740]

@@PowerRedBullTypologyI hope so too.
