A new collaboration work. The lyrics was provided by A good friend (Glen Cooper), He has sent me a whole bunch of lyrics. This one caught my attention. Listening through the BAIB Style picker. I came across two That got me going with this song. 1. Doowah.sty Doowah Doo-wop Gospel(minus the piano part). 2. Shooby.sty Shooby Doo Wop vocals(Just the organ part). The Melody was created along with the chord progression within BAIB. Had to transpose them to F#. As the original key was not suitable for male AI vocals. I did have a little problem with the 12/8 Time signature(sw8), when I transferred all to FL Studio With the Vocaloid Plugin. Ended up using 4/4 so that they would all sync. The style, Is very retro (60's/70's). So has a very familiar sound from This era. Hope you like it. Wanna Use Up All My Time With You Everywhere you look it’s a picture I just wanna use up all my time with you Every landscape and every feature I’ll give you the sky and I’ll, I’ll paint it blue Every hour and every minute I just wanna use up all my time with you The oceans roll and then I’m in it But with you I can just admire the view ~ (Chorus) Don’t stay home now, and rock yourself to sleep Love is our secret, you have my word And beauty they say is only skin deep Pain is a drug… Or haven’t you heard? ~ ~Don’t tell me what. What you think I ain’t Just tell me what. What I can do for you Your lipstick, powder and paint I could be anything you want me to ~ Now I don’t wanna appear rude, Oh no. I just wanna use up. Use all my time with you But if I could. Could only get you in the mood Oh yeah, you in the mood ~ (Chorus) 2x Don’t stay home now, and rock yourself to sleep Love is our secret, you have my word And beauty they say is only skin deep Pain is a drug… Or haven’t you heard?

Hi Robert,
Very nice song and very good use of that AI vocals.
And about the mood you tried to achieve, I think you succeeded on that!
Yes I do like this song, the lyrics and those vocals.
I noticed some minor things I want to inform you about.
At the start of the song the vocals were to far away, but only for some words.
The vocals are good, but I miss a bit of emotion in it.
I think some variation in the volume of the vocals can achieve that a bit more.
But a huge compliment from me for the result I heard here already.
Hans

Very nice work. The Ai vocalist was good, and blended well with the backing vocalists.

Thank you (Birchwood)very much for your kind comments. I'll take your suggestions on board on this project as well as future ones. I very much appreciate it. As much as I would like to put as much emotions into this, I believe this to not be an easily achievable situation when working with AI vocals. What I would like to see happening is:- A singer or two from within this wonderful group would have a listen and say!... I can to a much better job with the vocals on this, and take it on. Now that would be a really great feat to achieve.
Thank you all for taking the time to listen and comment. really appreciate it.
Wanna Use Up All My Time With You
Everywhere you look it’s a picture
I just wanna use up all my time with you
Every landscape and every feature
I’ll give you the sky and I’ll, I’ll paint it blue
Every hour and every minute
I just wanna use up all my time with you
The oceans roll and then I’m in it
But with you I can just admire the view
~
(Chorus)
Don’t stay home now, and rock yourself to sleep
Love is our secret, you have my word
And beauty they say is only skin deep
Pain is a drug… Or haven’t you heard?
~
~Don’t tell me what. What you think I ain’t
Just tell me what. What I can do for you
Your lipstick, powder and paint
I could be anything you want me to
~
Now I don’t wanna appear rude, Oh no.
I just wanna use up. Use all my time with you
But if I could. Could only get you in the mood
Oh yeah, you in the mood
~
(Chorus) 2x
Don’t stay home now, and rock yourself to sleep
Love is our secret, you have my word
And beauty they say is only skin deep
Pain is a drug… Or haven’t you heard?
Last time
Oh I wanna spend time, spend time with you
~

Hey Robert,
This genre was a little before my time but I do love this era of music. Great job with the production and I'm amazed at the high-quality of the background vocals.
A couple of suggestions:
There is a lag of about 6 seconds before the song intro. I would suggest you cut this out and re-render the file.
Include the lyrics when you submit a song. I personally add my lyrics in the "description" box of SoundCloud for each song. I put a lot of weight on lyrics and I'm a visual guy as well.
Overall, great job!
Dewey

Robert, you gave me a flashback in time and it was a wonderful trip! Note my wedding band use to play a number of songs like this.
Great job on that synth vocal.
Outstanding backing tracks!
This was a great memory trip song for me - Thanx for that!
Life is short so make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet arguing with strangers.

Excelent lyrics, Mr, Cooper, and, WOW, what you've done with them, Robert. Just beautiful. Man, this is so good and brings back so many wonderful feelings listening to the radio. Outstanding harmony. DooWop and Shooby. All good choices.

Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
