Excellent country song, lyrics and mix! The AI vocals are again so real sounding I doubt anyone would ever guess they were AI. Thanks for giving it a spin and commenting. I appreciate it. Excellent song, Tom, really well written and produced. AI vocal is good, fits the song well I think. Thank you Dave for mentioning the writing. I’m glad that it’s not being overlooked due to the ongoing controversy regarding the Ai vocals. Stay well, Tom

With a less "country" voice, and of course stacked vocal harmonies, this could've been on Velvet Crush's Teenage Symphonies LP.

Country music the way it's supposed to be.
The AI vocal is fairly good as long as it stays in the lower vocal range. When it reaches into the upper part of it's range is where it becomes obvious it's not real. That's where the artifacts show.
All in all, well done and totally impressive writing. Thanks Herb. I’m putting in the work to find some solutions to the problems. Hi Tommy,
Very nice song. Swings well even made my foot taps...!
The AI vocals are also very good. One thing you might want to fix in the AI; When the vocals go high (on some occasions) the AI did strange things (a bit).
But all in all I think it's a good, cool song. My wife probably wouldn't notice what I just wrote about the AI. She'd keep swinging...
Hans Hans, thanks for listening and commenting. It turns out to be much harder than you might think to fix the problems with the vocals. I think Iam slowly making progress.

Hi Tommy.
Ahh! A song with a good melody.
The AI sounds great apart from where it hits some high notes but not so noticeable if we weren't told it was AI.
Great stuff.
Vic Thanks Vic. I’m working on the Ai stuff. Not there yet but inching closer. Very well done, and I love the guitars in the background.
Laurent Thanks for listening and taking the time to comment.

Tom,
This is pure, excellent country. That lyric is classic country at its best. It reminds me of something Dean Dillon might have written. Your AI vocalist reminded me a bit of Craig Morgan. His big hit was "Almost Home". I could listen to your music all day and all night and never get bored.
As for as the AI stuff, I think each creator should use the tools that best complement their work. The future is going to bring what it does. Whether someone likes it or not, it will offer the tools of the moment. I turned 78 last week, so I won't be around to see much of it. And I'm not so important that my words have an influential voice, so I go with what's available and hope for the best.
This is a classic song by a classy man.
Alan Alan, thanks for all those nice words. Really lovely song that drew me and I'm not even a country buff. The ai vocals did bother me a bit but I understand your sentiments. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. I appreciate it.

Hey Tommy as a fellow AI vocal user I applaud this gorgeous use of the media...what people don't realize is that these are human voices that have been digitized and then manipulated either by human effort (ie Synthesizer V) or by the computers via AI (ie Suno) either way they sound better than I ever have as a "natural singer"...they have kept my musical journey alive ever since my singing voice abandoned me...this is a super country song...adding your real touch and personal talents to it made it even that much better!
PS...I think I recognize the singer.

“Honey Can you paint me a picture of how we used to be
Our little frame house in the shade Of a live oak tree
that weathered white fence that kept the world away
From you and me
Honey Can you paint me a picture of how we used to be”
Man, what a write. That would fit perfectly with any of the great “hat acts.” George Strait could’ve had a hit with it!
We can see that loving home and tree perfectly.
You seem to be learning fast on how to extract/manipulate these vocals and we enjoyed the phrasing of the singers.
Great group of session guys including you on the tele.
Enjoyed it!

Hi, Tom.
Solid country write, arrangement and performance.
It sounds like you did some hard tuning to get the singer to the notes you wanted, but he does a good job showing off the song.

Hi Tom
I missed this first time around.
IMO What's most remarkable is how well the AI vocal integrates into the overall sound. It's clear a lot of care went into the processing and mixing. While there's a certain ethereal, almost otherworldly quality to the voice, it's not distractingly artificial. In fact, the slightly synthetic texture actually enhances the dreamy and atmospheric nature of the song. It almost feels like a vocal sample manipulated with precision, creating a unique and interesting timbre. It has a very polished edge and feels very modern and clean. The AI does a great job of delivering the melody and emotion, creating a cohesive and compelling listening experience. It's a testament to how far AI vocal technology has come and a creative use of the tool that doesn't sound like the typical uncanny valley experience.
"The Way You Look At Me" is a beautifully crafted track that showcases a strong sense of atmosphere and a clever use of AI vocal technology. It's a dreamy synth-pop with a touch of melancholy. I like it.
cheers
Izzy
