That was beyond cool! Your use of the Synth voices is marvelous. The voices sound as live - perhaps better - than some live-singer recordings that get airplay. Everything is crisp but not abrasive or scratchy - perfect tone and timbre. Your music is always some of the best on the forum - and your command of the English language is impressive. I speak a fair amount of German (lived there almost 12 years), but not nearly as good as your English.
Your music always entertains and puts a smile on my face. There are times I need that, so thanks! What a great listen!

AI will be harvesting our organs soon.
And I thought the synth singing sounds so real, but the speaking sounds so unbelievably authentic.
Darn good song, whether you have a human or synth! Love the instrumentation too, Just right, like baby bear porridge. Thank you very much, E.S., especially for commenting on the song itself independently of the singer. Mucho appreciated! Just right, like baby bear porridge. I've never heard this quote, but I like it

Hello Brain, I have to compliment you on this masterpiece!
And I can say "again" too, because I think all of your songs are very impressive.
The way you handle these AI-vocals... Great!
Although David and Jannesan are getting close, as you might have noticed.
Maybe a song together???
Yes I enjoyed this song a lot. In a cynical way funny, but actually it's a sad story
And I too was thinking about the title and what Ray wrote about it.
To me the title is correct because it also implies two things; the drink and her miserable life. So she has to deal with both. Ray already referred to this.
Whatever, A great song!
Hans

B.D.:
Wonderful done . . . great 80’s vibe to this . . . but beyond that, I’m really impressed by the quality of the production here. The difference in vocal quality between the chorus and verse, the positioning . . . yeah, great mix, with some pretty flowers sprinkled throughout. LIke those fade outs on the “Not Drinking Either” . . . great use of reverb and delay throughout on the vocal. Killer stuff!
All my best to you,
Deej Thank you Deej for listening and for your detailed and positive feedback. I really appreciate it ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif)

How cool! Solaria sounds like a cross between Imelda May and Chrissie Hynde and that is a good thing. “Just gimme my booze, my whiskey in the jar And leave me alone You're not my ma” That gave us a laugh. The sparse band sounds great and the mix does too. Good pop production and video! J&B Thanks J&B for your nice feedback. Lyrics like the chorus above happen when the kids are in the room and Thin Lizzy is playing on the radio

I always love to hear Solaria! Is that talking part her voice as well?
Man, do those voice synths get better.
You packed it up in a thorough and professional rock arrangement.
Well done (as always) :-).

What a cool intro. Loved the mix on this. Had my speakers thumping. Super vocal. Drums and bass lines gave the song such a cool groove. Well done Thank you Scott for listening and your positive comment. Much appreciated

B.D.Thomas,
It's scary how real those synth voices sound! You've put together a tight sounding well constructed track! I certainly have no advice to offer as it sounds as though you know as well as I about what you're doing!
Thanks, T Knowing how good YOUR stuff is, that means a lot to me. Thank you, Torrey

BD,
I missed commenting on this one . . . though I think I had given a listen some time earlier. Regardless a wonder to hear again. Really well done tune, but no surprise as your productions are always clean and compelling. Once again, great use of vocaloids. Really nice drive to this, catchy chorus, with a slick 80’s like sound. Nice use of sound effects to boot. Cool tune!
All my best to you,
Deej Thanks for taking the time to listen (twice, I guess) and comment on my song, Deej. I really appreciate it!

Trying to picture drunk Solaria...
Fun tune. Well composed and produced. Neat spoken parts. I guess my critical comment would be... that spoken verses have good amount of raspiness and punkyness to connect to narrative, but choruses are too sweet for someone with such bottle issues. In any case, easy going cool tune. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. "Drunk Solaria" ... good title for a future song Thanks for listening and for your suggestions, Misha. I actually thought about it too, but decided to have the clean chorus as a contrast, like a dialog between the (drunk) girl and her (irrational) conscience. But you have a good point

Rob Hi Rob (and Anne-Marie of course), thanks for listening and your nice comment. And, yep, the talking part is also by Solaria, but with a different vocal processing.
