Shining Bright: The Story Behind "Shine Bright, Mom"
In 2024, Suno's Mother’s Day Competition brought together AI music creators from around the world, each vying for the spotlight with songs that celebrated the essence of motherhood. Among the winners was "Shine Bright, Mom", a heartfelt tribute that combined technology, creativity, and emotion. Created by Jack Righteous, the track captured hearts and stood out as a testament to both artistry and innovation.
The Genesis of "Shine Bright, Mom"
The song was initially brought to life using Suno AI’s Version 3, during an early stage in Jack’s exploration of AI-assisted songwriting. At the time, his lyric creation methods were raw and experimental, often starting with spontaneous thoughts and reflections about the topic at hand—in this case, his mother. These musings were then channeled into ChatGPT, which shaped the foundational lyrics.
The result was a piece deeply rooted in Proverbs, reflecting strength, wisdom, and kindness—qualities Jack associated with his mother. The lyrics, such as “Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come”, emphasized timeless virtues, while the recurring chorus of “Happy Mother’s Day! Be Righteous!” tied the personal tribute to Jack’s signature branding.
Evolution of the Song
Since its debut, "Shine Bright, Mom" has undergone significant enhancements. Leveraging Suno AI’s Version 4, Jack remastered the track four times in his DAW, achieving a polished and professional sound. He further enhanced the track by using Audacity, a free audio editing software, to clean up the audio and slightly increase its speed. This adjustment brought a livelier tempo that matched the celebratory tone of the song.
Jack’s strategy extended beyond perfecting the song. The final Version 4 track was added to his Christian Music playlist on Suno AI, ensuring it reaches fans who resonate with his spiritually uplifting music. By linking the song to similar works, Jack created an opportunity for listeners to explore his broader discography.
Finally, the sped-up version of the track was uploaded to Jack’s SoundCloud account, providing fans with an alternate version while expanding its reach to a new audience.
