‘Thrive in 25’ – Balancing out authenticity

I’ve got some exciting news to share! I’ve created several new songs in the last few days!!! How? What? But Richard is the songwriter! Uh-huh. He is. And now, I am too! How is that possible? I’m simply his muse. A singer. I’m not a musician. Ah, but with Suno AI, it seems I don’t have to be a musician or know anything about music or songwriting!

Listen to the first song I created, Whisper of the Ancient, with a simple prompt having to do with the metaphysical experience I had in 2004 when a deep voice (outside of myself) woke me up in the middle of the night with the words, We Are All Connected:

Whisper of the Ancient (v. 1) — Sheila Murrey, songwriter using Suno AI

And yes, Suno AI gave me two versions. And I love them BOTH! So, since I can’t decide which version to use for my music video… you tell me (in the comments)! Which version do YOU like best?

Whisper of the Ancient (v. 2) — Sheila Murrey, songwriter using Suno AI
Suno AI even generated this image along with the song. In all of about ten to fifteen seconds. I love it! Doesn’t it totally capture the essence of the song?

But is this AI songwriting stuff a good thing? I mean, I am a multiverse author, writing about ALL things multiverse… (you’ll see when I get my 5th book done), but I just couldn’t get beyond the fake-ness of AI! I must hear SOUL in the music I listen to! And AI has no soul. Or does it?

I’ve been highly skeptical of AI for YEARS! In fact, one could say, I hated AI.

It would take jobs away from authentic illustrative artists and in this case, songwriters. And for those of us, like my darling husband, it would add even more songs to the glut out in ‘pick me’ original song land and make it that much harder for our original songs to be heard and chosen for commercial projects (TV shows, films, games, and so on).

Maybe all we’re doing when we dig deep into authenticity, is that we’re just balancing out the fakes? Does fraud exist to balance out the authentic real?

Speaking of fakes

While reading about Suno AI on Rolling Stone, I saw this article about Johnny Depp calling out all the scammers using his name and likeness to bilk people out of thousands of dollars. And I remembered writing about one contacting me on Truth Social. –Rolling Stone: https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/johnny-depp-warns-fans-ai-assisted-impersonation-scams-1235226994/

I must thank fellow blogger and songwriter, Gray Summers for strongly suggesting that Richard and I should check out AI music generation. (I fought against the suggestion, he can attest to that.) Synchronistically though, Stephen Cooper (you’ll remember his name from all those daily music blog posts I wrote in 2024, as he was our first and long-time music producer in Nashville, TN.), sent Richard a link to try Suno AI.

My new job has fizzled

I’m not sure what’s going on with my new job. But after only a few days, I haven’t heard anything. I was supposed to be on a Zoom call Thursday with the team and without any notice (and I sat on the Zoom for ten minutes, waiting), I found out they couldn’t get the Zoom working for ‘technical reasons.’ Ugh! I was sooo disappointed! I’d been working so hard to prepare for it. Was all that a waste? I was excited, and I guess that had been good. At least, I’d been having fun.

Spiral thought: Maybe the way we feel, the excitement, the thrill, is our payment? Our payment for spending time on a project even if it falls flat.

I’ve updated the Connect with us section below, so keep scrolling…

Everything happens for a reason in the multiverse with myriad sides to every story

Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason in the multiverse and Everything Resolves to Gratitude. Knowing that each of us (as fractals) uplifts my mind and allows me to view life as a lively kaleidoscope grand design that moves about in an ever-expanding, revolving, melodious, consciousness. Even if we have to disconnect from some people, for a time.

Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. Let’s THRIVE in ’25!

Yours in expanding, coexisting (because there’s more than one-side to every story), balancing, spiraling consciousness,

Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey

About us

Richard and I play at the intersection of Energy, Spirituality, Health, and Music, to let FREEDOM ring for ALL! We’re down to earth (even if we are conspiracy theorists), yet not in the ground! We’re just dancing around in rhythm with the mystifying Multiverse… all humble like. But we’re always thinking, onward and upwards, so we keep exploring and creating!

My husband of 19 years, Richard Murrey, is an award-winning illustrator, plus he’s a seasoned guitarist, bass player, and songwriter (having penned over 400 original songs).

We’re also seeking bands to play our songs. If you know of any up and coming musical artist, please forward this blog article to them.

The social channels where I am most active (after thoroughly testing out others in 2024, I’ve dropped a few. My stats revealed almost no one opened my blog posts from Substack, Locals, or Instagram. I still have accounts there but I won’t be posting to those anymore):

I’m in 4DU Community/Fellowship as a student of Aaron Abke. You can join me there by enrolling on his website: https://www.aaronabke.com/4duniversity/ I am in a couple of the Affinity circles. Also, I am on WhatsApp with my Dr. Bruce Lipton group, and I am part of a Theosophy book club, every other Friday (Let me know if you’d like to join us, it’s currently a small group). At any given time, I meet with a few fellow author and blogger friends on Zoom too, and am willing to speak with you by request. Amen. Namaste. OM

April 29th – Energy

It’s April 29th, 2024; Here’s an original rock song about Energy! Would you call this hard rock or metal? Michael from 80smetalman or Gray Summers can tell me. Yes, we all need and use energy and this is Richard’s ode to all that is the energy that sustains us. This is one of my favorite songs! It’s got solid vocals from Bubba Hudson and a hot production mix by Steven Cooper, Nashville, TN. 

Deserves a space in movies

Here’s the one-hundred-twentieth new music post for 2024, as I consistently push our original songs out into the ether. Yes, The Fifth Element is a favorite movie and I believe songs like, Energy, certainly deserve a space and place in a film like that. Someone has to be making a movie or show that this song could get plugged into. Right?

Another video (same song) includes the lyrics

AI or will the real Johnny Depp please stand up?

Screen capture: My chat with Johnny Depp (probably not the real one) on Truth Social. He has sent an audio file too, and it was a personalized message. But I am still skeptical since I know AI can produce audio messages in celebrity voices. I would love to chat with the real Johnny Depp though and ask him about music, so on the off chance that this is the real one and he sees this, my apologies!

Spiral thought: I still believe in Connecting and the interconnectedness of ALL even though some connections are fake through AI.

The countdown continues… we move in 1 DAY! I am picking up the rental truck tomorrow morning and then we’ll start loading. Woo-hoo! Life is a journey not a destination (to quote a line from one of my favorite songs)!

Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time.

May we all soar in ’24! Here’s to getting on the road, and living FREE!

Yours in expanding, moving, spiraling consciousness,

Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey
