Suno Song With Metatags
A Suno prompt using style descriptors and [Verse]/[Chorus] metatags to control genre, energy, and song structure precisely.
Style prompt (Suno "Style of Music" field, 4-7 descriptors, most important first): [GENRE + ERA: late-90s alt-rock / 2010s synthpop / lo-fi bedroom folk], [TEMPO + ENERGY: mid-tempo, building intensity], [VOCALS: female alto, breathy verses, belted chorus], [INSTRUMENTATION: warm bass, brushed drums, analog synth pads], [PRODUCTION: tape saturation, wide chorus reverb] Exclude Styles field: [WHAT TO KEEP OUT, e.g. "EDM, trap, autotune"] Lyrics field: [Intro: instrumental, 4 bars] [Verse 1] [4-6 LINES: set the scene, concrete images, no rhyming clichés] [Pre-Chorus] [2 LINES: tension builds] [Chorus: full band, powerful vocals] [4 LINES: the hook, simplest language in the song, repeatable] [Verse 2] [4-6 LINES: develop the story] [Chorus] [Bridge: stripped down, quieter, vulnerable vocals] [2-4 LINES: the turn, new chord feeling] [Chorus: bigger, layered harmonies] [Outro: instrumental fade] [End]
How to use
Suno reads the bracketed metatags as structural directions, not lyrics, and newer versions accept parameters inside them ('[Chorus: full band, powerful vocals]'), which is the strongest arrangement control available. Front-load the style field with your most important descriptors, put exclusions in the Exclude Styles field rather than the prompt, and never use artist names: they're filtered; describe the era and production instead. Keep total lyrics around 30-40 lines or Suno rushes the song.
