Kay-lynn: Hey I got the mp3 downloaded and am playing around with it . I think I would just like to take your melody and add drums a little lead guitar and bass.
I know you wanted a bridge also, so I'l l play around with that on the second go round. You have a great voice.
Cheers and happy new year....Paul

I have the habit of only hearing a song through it's lyric if that makes any sense. I'm nuts anyway! LOL I just feel that "good" lyrics have their own tempo. In other words the lyric must always flow.

Depending on your connection you can either "stream" it.. or download it by right clicking your mouse and hitting "save target as"..
Hope that helps.

kay-lynn: I just did a full band production using your demo last nite to see how it would sound with a band behind you.
Of courxe I didn't record any finished product but I think it is good enough to at least put up on the board so stay tuned I should have it uploaded to my sound click site tonight.
Cheers....Paul

Kay-lynn: Hi and thanks, it was my pleasure. No I didn't block it. I can send you an mp3 directly.
So happy you liked the piece. I kept the band in the background so's everybody could hear your great voice. I think it rocks if I do say so myself. Its Joyous. I think you should demo it after you get the bridge. I haven't really though of one as yet although there are lots of suggestions up here. Stay tuned. I could record the bridge seperately and we could add it later if you like it.
Now back to my other life!

Kay-Lynn:
Send it to me at Olibird@netzero.net. I can do another recording. Since I have the arrangement, I can do it in no time.
I could send you two versions one with and without voice.
I like being kind ...I also like working with talent.
All the best ....Paul

Well I sure love the voice they gave it, right??? haha.. Not bad at all. (not a fan of a bridge, because it's not supposed to have one)....maybe a little more harmony or chorus voices? A few I tried sounded great with those voices to build up the last two choruses.
I'll post what I tried in a bit. Thanks for jumping in there Rob!!!

ya know Rob, I did one pass through on this and Suno gave it a background vocal on the last chorus which was so kewl, but I don't know how to ask for it.
It was like when she's singing.. "when love comes in and... (loves comes in) and makes you a winner (loves comes in)<< background voices, it was so cool but I don't know how to get it to do it.

Kay-Lynn, you can achieve that just the way you wrote it. At the end of your lyric line you add the backing vocal text in brackets "( )", not "[ ]". If you want the background vocals sung in harmony, you should add "layered harmonies" or "harmony vocals" to the style section of Suno. That works for me almost every time. When love comes in (love comes in) and it makes you a winner (love comes in)
