Since the start of 2025 I have produced the music for 38 new songs on my Suno page. 25 involve songs using the poetry of long-dead poets. Eight use original lyrics that I wrote myself. Please have a listen to a few and let me know what you think:.

Five of the 48 songs on my Suno page have lyrics written by Tudor Rickards, a retired professor who is turning into a super songwriter. He supplies me with his lyrics and I produce the music. Here is a playlist of Tudor’s songs:.

Especially now Gill has reached 250 and is starting to tire. .

Brook is now showing his all-round skills. What chance do poor India have?.

A really fun and ultra-cool song (lyrics by the 84 year old professor). Please have a listen!.

New song! How it all started. The true history of rap music, as imagined by Professor Tudor Rickards. Well, it went something like this anyway (give or take a few thousand years)….

Another song, similar to the ones with Einstein and Nietzsche quotes, where I did not write any of the lyrics, but only assembled and configured them.

Another new song! Groucho Marx, one of the Marx Brothers, was a very witty man, as this little collection of his quips shows. I don’t know how the AI singer managed to maintain such a deadpan delivery.and keep a straight face.

I am now up to 46 songs on my Suno page. They are all good, but here is a playlist of the top ten, including three with my own lyrics, one with lyrics by Professor Tudor Rickards and six based on lyrics by long-dead poets:.

A taciturn coachman, a mysterious coach journey through a moonlit wood, philosophical musings on the origin of celestial bodies. Sir Henry Newbolt might be turning in his grave at this rapped up and modern version of his classic poem, written in 1898:.

New song! Sir Henry Newbolt, 1862-1938, is a bit too ‘god, queen and empire’ for modern tastes, but this 1892 poem, his best-known, extolling the virtues of cricket and sportsmanship as English values makes for a nice song.

My playlist of five songs based on the poetry of Percy Bysshe Shelley:.

Here is a playlist with all four of the songs where Tudor Rickards wrote the lyrics:.

The remarkable Professor Tudor Rickards, born in 1941, is a joy to work with. He sends me his brilliant lyrics by e-mail and I then produce the music. The collaboration is now responsible for four songs, including this (just released):.

Another new song! Shelley doing a political protest song. The country was not in a good state in 1819. It was the year of the Peterloo massacre. Shelley has a go at all the authority structures - monarchy, parliament, army and church.

New song! In this (uncharacteristically) cheerful, optimistic and upbeat song, Shelley takes on the persona of Apollo, the Greek god of music, poetry, light, healing, and prophecy. It was written in 1820, just two years before Shelley’s untimely death.

New evidence, just discovered, shows that Percy Bysshe Shelley was the first ever rap artist. He recorded this song in 1822 just before he drowned, aged just 29, when his boat sank. This is his only known rap song:.

I guess this is a simple love song, or about as simple as you are going to get with a complex mind like Shelley’s. It also has the gorgeous (and famous) line ‘And the moonbeams kiss the sea’. It was first published in 1819.

New you-tube video! The famous poem, ‘Tyger’ by William Blake turned to music by GM Jon. Here pussycat:.

Here is a playlist of the songs: .

Excuse my typo. that's Percy Bysshe Shelley.
