Skirmish: Meta-music (a song from a... (@dudachris)Liner Notes
#meta #skirmish #protest #guywithacomputer #country Well, this will be controversial for a number of reasons. First, it's recycling a song I posted in a skirmish earlier today: https://write.fawm.org/songs/310880 Second, the music was created by Suno #AI. Third, it's #political, and probably will buy me a tax audit if not a trip to the blue gulag. But, I'm posting it anyway to demonstrate what AI does to lyrics. No doubt the AI version is more polished. But, let me know what you think! Which do you prefer?
Lyrics
STOP IT (I didn't vote for Elon) c. 2025 raspberry33
VERSE 1: It’s another day of watching the clown car spin its wheels And then reverse direction let me tell you how that feels I’m dizzy and unsettled Can I ask who feels the same? Can we share the same umbrella And avoid the acid rain….
CHORUS: Stop it, stop it, we’ve had enough Life doesn’t need to be this tough The system’s a car that’s hard to shift But that’s no reason to drive it off a cliff
VERSE 2: So they’ve launched another witch hunt built a fire around the stake And your choice is to stay silent or live with a mistake In believing that the system will protect you and your friends Now it’s time to make it clear We will not let freedom end
CHORUS
BRIDGE: Who’s telling you everything will be OK? Do you make your own decisions, or are you told? Are we the team the pundits say will finish last There’s a time to shout, a time to be bold…
VERSE 3: I didn’t vote for Elon and neither did you Already, there’s been damage that will be hard to undo So enough with wishful thinking and doubling down on wrong Will join me in the chorus We all must sing this song
CHORUS

"The system’s a car that’s hard to shift But that’s no reason to drive it off a cliff" great line. As a Canadian, I feel the sting of being affected by someone I didn't vote for. Democracy for the indignant few.
Subversive country robot!
I prefer your own melody (and voice) to this AI generated one, for sure. The vocal inflection you bring to it expresses your ideas better than this slick phoney country/pop version. It's really interesting to see the difference!
Love the metaphors in this and message
This is a great protest anthem.
Wow, this is powerful, and really well done. Really love the writing, and whatever you did with the production the end result is strong. Love the vocals. Great job.
Hearing these words in the style of voice that is usually singing about the kind of freedom that oppresses so many is such a mind $#%&. Really great writing here!
I like yours but this one is super cool too! I like how the Ai handles the "drive it off a cliff" line. I found it weird that it turned your verse two into part of the chorus. Interesting how it used part of it as a little tag. I liked that. I'm so fascinated and love that you did this comparison! What were your thoughts?
