Suno vs. Flow Round 2
I tried ten more prompts to compare Suno and Google Flow Music. This time, I provide a lyrics snippet to the music generator. I'm no song writer, but have written poems for fun (close enough!). Now AI can turn my bars into real songs. :-P
A pop song that includes these lyrics: I've been stumblin' through life like a water bear.
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Flow 2 is my favorite of the four. Google Flow did a good job with the album art. Flow 1's lyrics just repeated the same line over and over. :-( Suno only did slightly better, but the lyrics weren't very cohesive.A rap about spicy ramyeon that includes these lyrics: First bite's so good. Lips are tingling but I just can't stop...
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Suno 2 edges out Suno 1. Google Flow has problems with singing some lyric lines twice (even though the line only appears once). It also pronounced "broth" wrong. Suno pronounces ramyeon wrong. Probably need to write it phonetically, like rom-yon.A mandarin pop song with rap section that includes: 快跑！快跑！
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Flow 2. I didn't like Suno's chorus. The pronunciation of 跑 in the intro of Suno 1 sounded too "American" for me. :-) There was also a weird artifact at the end of Suno 1. Parts of the Suno takes are catchy, but I'll give it to Google this time.Classic rock song about the life of a barista with lyrics that include: Pouring lightning jolts cause I ain't got money.
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Suno 2 is slightly better than Suno 1. Sometimes Google Flow doesn't make two versions. I had to submit the prompt a second time to get the second take (which was a decent song).French house track with lyrics that include "look up; the horizon never comes" and "arc-en-ciel".
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Suno pronounced arc-en-ciel better than Google Flow.Fingerpicked electric guitar song that includes lyrics such as: ...first time in the air, where the summer breeze...
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Suno 1 wins, but Suno 2 is also nice. I liked the feel of the Google songs, but I am annoyed that it can't pronounce words correctly. It pronounces "lanyard" as "langyer".Ambient R&B song that includes lyrics like: "shouldn'ta had that second mochi pop."
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Flow 1 wins. Flow 2 pronounced "transactional" as "transical"...Short 1950's jingle that includes the lyrics: Make the most of these oats.
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Suno 1 is the closest to a short jingle for a TV ad. Google Flow's take 2 weirdly didn't include any lyrics, even though the tags said it had a "bright female vocal trio".Theme song for an animated movie that includes lyrics like: you are my matching sock.
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Flow 2.Ultra minimal electropop song about digging through a thesaurus. Includes lyrics like: "Your glib remarks still echo through the darkness"
[ Flow 1 ] [ Flow 2 ] [ Suno 1 ] [ Suno 2 ]and the winner is... Suno 2 is the one I'd like on my iPod (yes I'm old!). Google Flow has trouble pronouncing some words.
Suno wins 6 to 4. This matchup was a bit closer, but it might be because I chose Suno's v5 model instead of their v5.5 model. (I had read some of the older models generated better lyrics.)
However, Suno still has issues with excessive repetition of the provided lyrics snippet. I should probably expand the lyrics more (with the help of AI?) before providing a complete set of lyrics to Suno or Flow.
Here are some Suno songs about getting your hair just right:
All songs used these lyrics (written with the help of Claude)
[Verse 1]
Static in the bathroom light
Comb it left then comb it right
Every strand's a battle line
Gotta get this shape just right
Spray it, shape it, watch it fall
Texturize and stand up tall
One more pass and then I freeze
Frame it perfect, baby please
[Pre-Chorus]
Three, two, one — here we go
Turning heads in stereo
Can you feel the volume rise?
Watch it glitter, watch it shine
[Chorus]
Oh, it's perfect, it's electric
Every strand in sync tonight
Neon halo, I'm reflected
Finally got my hair just right
Pixel-sharp and synthesized
Catch the shimmer in the light
Oh, it's perfect, it's electric
I could dance until sunrise
[Verse 2]
Humidity's my enemy
Wind's a saboteur to me
But tonight the stars align
Every flyaway's in line
Camera flash, a photo drop
This is when the magic stops
Freeze the frame, don't let it fade
This look took a while to made
[Pre-Chorus]
Three, two, one — here we go
Turning heads in stereo
Can you feel the volume rise?
Watch it glitter, watch it shine
[Chorus]
Oh, it's perfect, it's electric
Every strand in sync tonight
Neon halo, I'm reflected
Finally got my hair just right
Pixel-sharp and synthesized
Catch the shimmer in the light
Oh, it's perfect, it's electric
I could dance until sunrise
[Bridge]
Don't touch it—
don't you dare touch it—
this took forty minutes
and a can of hairspray courage
lock it in, lock it in, lock it in—
[Final Chorus]
Oh, it's perfect, it's electric
Every strand in sync tonight
Neon halo, I'm reflected
Finally got my hair just right
Pixel-sharp, I'm synthesized
Nothing's gonna break this vibe
Oh, it's perfect, it's electric
Best hair day of my life
