I wrote this a few months ago but have only just got round to trying something with it!
Yes Ive utilised an AI vocal as this is purely for a demo not for commercial release,hoever I do intend to polish it and put my vocals on.
Its a song about just living your best life, nothing fancy or deep lol.

Lyrics:-
[Verse] Turned the key on my old Chevy truck, Sunrise shining, got my coffee cup. Driving down that two-lane fire, Small-town dreams and a heart full of desire.
[Verse 2] Tires kicking up dust from the county line, Radio blaring that 'Friday night' kind. One hand on the wheel, the other on fate, Every mile I run just can’t wait.
[Chorus] We’re living the dream, chasing it wild, Country roads stretching for a mile. With you by my side, nothing’s out of reach, Two restless souls, living the dream.
[Verse 3] Barbecue smoke fills the evening air, Laughter spills out, we’ve got time to spare. Fireflies dancing in the heat of July, Underneath the stars, just you and I.
[Bridge] Guitar strumming as the bonfire roars, Boots keep dancing on the dirt-rich floor. Tomorrow’s uncertain, but tonight we’re free, Pour another round for this old dream.
[Chorus] We’re living the dream, chasing it wild, Country roads stretching for a mile. With you by my side, nothing’s out of reach, Two restless souls, living the dream.
Sometimes you just have to say f### it and do it anyway!
Pete, this is excellent A great country groove That AI vocal ain't to bad but I'm sure your vocal will be much better This doesn't need any polish, just add your vocal
My momma didn't raise a fool. And if she did it, was one of my brothers.

Thank you brother!
I will be adding my vocals without a doubt, just wanted to get a feel for how it might go down...................just had a call from a n old mate of mine who is still gigging asking me to let him cover this on his gigs so Im pretty buzzed about that lol
Sometimes you just have to say f### it and do it anyway!
Really nice tune, Pete! Like your band a lot. Pretty impressive AI vocal, too. Some neat little vocal inflections that I wouldn't have expected, but...these things are getting better and fast. Looking forward to your vocals!

Thank you Ron, much appreciated.
You're right about AI, still not perfect but my goodness it's getting there...... Frightening lol

Nice driving country rocker. What's not to like about that?
I'd work on editing the AI rhymes a bit. It seems like AI tends to use throwaway rhymes, or perhaps a better way to say it is, lazy rhymes on the last half of the verses in places.
"Driving down that two-lane fire, Small-town dreams and a heart full of desire"..... Work on that. It doesn't make sense and seems like it's just there to make a rhyme and not necessarily sense.
This is a cool song and since you are planning to record your vocals, take the time to go over the lyrics with a fine tooth comb and rewrite those sections that are not quite up to par.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.
The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
Well, that's some fine work with the synth vocal. Amazing how good you guys are getting them. Still, looking forward to hearing you in there. Fine write, Pete. Good band, catchy, relatable hook, and a masterful mix.
