Tidal Wave (For the Love of God)

[@SimplyMusicAI]

So well done! I really enjoyed every moment. Great job!

Thank you for your listen and comments. These AI music services are a Godsend to poets and lyricists, and V4 at SUNO is really good. Just a great song writing partner. Such fun and sometimes it seems more than fun.

Good morning, Sam. Congratulations on your beautiful new song, Tidal Wave (For the Love of God)! It’s a moving and uplifting piece that perfectly complements Go With the Flow in your Ocean of Life series. The lyrics are deeply meaningful, carrying a powerful message of hope, healing, and transformation. The SUNO V4 singer brings it all together so beautifully, because there’s such an inspiring energy to the track. How are you doing, my dear friend? I hope this creative journey has been as fulfilling for you as it is inspiring for those of us who get to enjoy your work. It’s wonderful to see how your songs reflect such depth of thought and purpose. Wishing you a fantastic weekend filled with joy, peace, and perhaps even other creative sparks for your Ocean of Life series. You’re doing amazing work, and it’s always a delight to see what you come up with next. Take care and we talk soon! 🌊✨ Eric

Hi Eric, I am doing fine, thank you for asking. This was a difficult song to complete. It took 30+ tries to get it to this level of completeness but in the end, I was pleased with the less than perfect production. Like you say, perfection is not the goal, sometimes the imperfections actually add to the "realness" of the song. While I really like the lead vocal on this, the background harmonies, with 2 exceptions, get stepped on by the lead singer, but I felt that was a minor imperfection given the quality of the lead vocal from the V4 singer. I also failed to fade it nicely when cropping out the last minute that needed to be trimmed when I extended it. It was still pretty long, well over 5 minutes....that is a long attention span for YT songs. Thank you for your comments, they help keep me inspired. I have a couple more Sisyphus songs to post, first act stories that I have been holding back because I am not sure of the quality and I will be interested in your thoughts when I post them. The Sisyphus series has some high points and I do want to complete it into an album for distribution (altough all the songs are free right here). SUNO V4 is pretty amazing - the singers are imporved with better articulation and intonation. Pretty impressive service. There is another service, Mureka, that is adding virtual singers for the pro subscribers that sing your lyrics on video - I am sure they will eventually provide a whole virtual band playing and singing but this technology, while disruptive to the music industry, offers so much to the amateur and semi-pro producers.

@@Sam_Utah Hello Sam, It’s always a joy to hear from you, and I’m glad to know you’re doing well! Your dedication to Tidal Wave (For the Love of God) really shines through! It’s clear you poured a lot of heart into perfecting it. Sometimes those “imperfections” bring a unique authenticity and warmth to a song, making it feel even more relatable and real. Over five minutes is quite the journey for a KZbin audience, but I think the listeners will appreciate the depth and storytelling in it. It’s wonderful to hear you’re planning to share more of your Sisyphus songs! I can’t wait to explore those stories and share my thoughts. The idea of compiling them into an album sounds fantastic : there’s something so satisfying about seeing a complete creative vision come to life. SUNO V4 and these emerging services like Mureka really are game-changers, and it’s exciting to see how they empower independent creators like us. Your masterpieces are wonderful, Sam, I love it so much. Wishing you a wonderful Saturday filled with inspiration and joy! Warm regards, my dear friend. Eric

Wow, music and lyrics are just flowing from you. Just beautiful!

[@Sam_Utah]

Thanks for tuning in. It does feel like a productive period. I am getting some people interested in my little creations. I can only copyright the lyrics - music and arrangements are public domain but there is no easy way to separate them so I am OK publishing them as is. This one took 30 tries to get the mistakes and bugs out. This one and "Go With the Flow" use the same singer and similar themes. Glad you enjoy them.
