Track sounds great also, good instrumentation and mix, and the echo at the end was a nice touch.

Enjoyed!
Dave...thanks...glad you enjoyed the song...Dan

Am sure your experience in "real" vocal ensembles gives you a huge advantage in programming these vocals. They sound quite detailed and simply superb.
That being said, your "real" vocals and the songs with other "real" vocalists you've posted here have never been less than pro level. And I don't recall a single flat note, or anything else out of place. New participants in this forum should revisit some of your older posts, they are special.
Thanks so much Ron...you are very gracious about the older recordings...I'm going to try to convert some of them to AI voices (the ones I think I didn't do well)...to me it's the music and not the singer that matters and the message matters more than the music...thanks again...Dan

You are getting some of the very best performances out of these voices. Wonderful mix as well.

It's Saul about timing. All of your songs help us all slay that dragon in the valley, and this one is the perfect amunition for our slingshots (or bras depending on your interpretation smile ).
You slay me man (not like David did Goliath) but you know what I mean...yeah...I'm loving me those Guys...they sing like I wish I could...I'm thrilled that you like the stuff being produced right now! Dan

Deej...thanks so much...I have started using the AI voices from Suno...there is less control over them because they are "intelligent" and are not manipulated so easily but their "choices" are so much more intuitive and human than trying to program everything myself like I did with Fresh Fire's voices...these voices sing with passion and emotion and I've not been disappointed in any of their choices yet.

I have no idea how it works exactly, but I have one question:
Does it take longer to provide the song with the AI voice or if you sing it yourself ?
Great work Dan
Andi ;-)
Thanks Andi...I have no idea how it works either...but I don't care as long as they help me interpret and record the music better...that's my goal...if you program each word, phrase, melody and timing it takes much much longer to do that than to just sing it...but my voice is failing me now (I'm 73) and if I want to keep writing and recording this is my best option...I I'm not done yet!! Thanks again Andi....Dan
