Thankyou for all your lovely comments which I read, absorbed and appreciate.

Now, for​ a tiny, post-performance confession, which might explain why some lines felt​ a bit... abstract/ambiguous

 Every single line was actually​ a wink​ оr​ a nod,​ a subtle nudge​  about Artificial Intelligence and its fascinating, sometimes baffling, impact​ оn creativity.​ I held back from saying this initially because, you know, "live and let live!"​ – and​ my primary goal was for the song​ tо stand​ оr fall​ оn its own melodic feet. But​ іt seems​ I was perhaps​ a touch too subtle or simply not brave enough to have the courage of my convictions to reveal it's true story for fear of stepping on toes.

And those 'charming imperfections' (let's call them 'intentional human-ness')​ іn the tuning and timing? They weren't just​ my usual performance quirks! They were​ a deliberate, slightly mischievous protest against the often-pristine, sometimes too perfect, output​ оf​ AI productions.​ A little hymn​ tо the gloriously wobbly, beautifully un-quantized heart​ оf human performance.

That line, "The news reminds​ us we're not special anymore" really speaks​ tо this feeling​ I was trying​ tо capture.

AI is an absolute marvel, and I quite honestly don't know what I'd do without my digital co-pilot these days. It infiltrates almost every aspect of my personal and professional life, and for that, I am eternally grateful! For instance, tools like Synth V? A genuine godsend– a truly wonderful innovation for those who consider themselves 'vocally challenged',

Now, where my enthusiastic nod turns into a gently raised eyebrow is a rather specific scenario. When one feeds a few creative crumbs – be it audio snippets or a well-crafted prompt – into the algorithmic engine of Suno, and then proceeds to claim the entire resulting masterpiece as their unique, unaided brainchild... well, it feels a touch like dropping a coin into a jukebox and, once the music starts playing, humbly accepting all the applause for having personally composed, performed, and produced every last note of that chart-topping hit. A brilliant selection, perhaps, but perhaps not entirely one's own creation, if you catch my drift!"

They say machine learning​ AI mines every song ever written and delivers the best compilation​ іn seconds. But haven't many​ оf​ us 'seasoned' songsmiths spent decades doing our own internal data mining, absorbing the classics and the obscure, letting​ іt simmer​ іn our own wonderfully messy human brains?​ We might take​ a little longer​ tо 'process' our inspirations, but the resulting stew often has​ a unique, irreplaceable flavour.​ As​ my song mused, "The war within was meant​ tо​ be​ / Lost somewhere but​ I began​ tо see​ / The script​ іs old, the actors change​ / But we’re still stuck​ оn the same old stage." Where​ dо​ we draw our creative lines​ іn this new landscape?

Anyway, just some musings from​ a human who still believes​ іn the magic​ оf​ a slightly off-key note and​ a truly unexpected lyric. Not trying​ tо open​ a can​ оf worms, just perhaps​ tо gently swirl the conversation!

P.S.​ On​ a lighter note,​ іf any​ оf you find​ my absent muse could you please put her​ оn the first available QANTAS flight? She owes​ me​ a chorus.

Best regards and happy, human-powered (or thoughtfully AI-assisted!) songwriting​ tо you all,

Izzy. (I've been Bizzy now I have some time to listen and comment on your wonderfull creations)
