Morrissey Central "LANA DEL REY" (July 11, 2023)

another ‘victory’ for A.I.

 
They picked the wrong song to use.
Lana woulda sounded better on somethin' like
That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore.



another little peek at the future of ‘music’.

 
If you think about it, these 'covers' are a simulation of Lana simulating M's phrasing / vocal quirks / accent / etc. Which is cool from a computer nerd's POV, but from an artistic point is veeery meh, and disturbing too. When artists cover songs they bring something of their own beyond the voice itself, even they are staying true to the original, so where's the creative bit? You just trained a data model and tweaked it here and there (not that it doesn't require a skill to pull it off, and yet that's not really artistic). And sometimes AI gets confused and does something really weird and uncanny to the vocals. :confused:

Other than that, it'd be awesome to hear her actually cover The Smiths or hear them in a real duo. Not that it's happening, but it's something nice to be dreaming of.
 





And I have seen wonders
And I have seen miracles
Oh, I have seen some things
It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain

And I have seen sadness
And I have seen time run out
I've even seen men cry
It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain

And my memories
I can't give them away
So it's easy
Like a long long sleep
I'm so tired
Now it's my time to die

Welcome home
Welcome home

No exhibition
No screaming war songs
No conversation
No more opinions here

And I have seen new wars
And I have seen things
That you wouldn't believe
And I have seen my days

It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain
 
I really don't get some people here. This sounds absolutely fantastic. AI is incredible and this sounds like a 'real' track.
 
It's cdub_dubz here. I see that you've found my stash of goodies. Some may enjoy them, and some may not.

For those who do, a subscriber recently asked if I could do Matt Maltese's As the World Caves In as sung by Morrissey AI, and what do you know... it's a banger! It's could have been a Morrissey song in another universe.
