This is interesting. I won't name anyone, but I just ran some lyrics through this :https://arting.ai/ai-detector ..and around 50% of the lyrics one person claimed to be their own work came back as most likely AI generated...which is pretty much as I suspected. I put several lyrics of mine to the test and nothing came back as AI. I would never accuse anyone as there's no way these detectors can be 100% accurate. But I just want people to be honest about how they create their music.

Well, you know I think about your songs and this one is great. I do prefer the ones that you sing because you have such a great voice. And I'm a sucker for songs about a bar room!! My mis-spent youth I guess!!

Yes, I thought AI before I read the other comments. There's now several different sites that claim to be able to detect AI generated music and lyrics too, though I'm not sure how accurate they are.

It's difficult when the poster doesn't say anything about it's creation. I notice there's some other very different material on the website including a symphony.

Forgive me but I won't say anything else until I know more.

Another great track. I'm curious to know how you create these tracks. I don't think it's AI but it doesn't sound like live music either. Not a criticism - I'm just curious that's all. The fade out was a bit unexpected, but otherwise a great song. :)

I love this track. Great to hear a guy who can strum a great guitar and deliver a really soulful vocal. Nice lyrics too. Nothing not to like about this. No crits from me at all...just nice to sit back and enjoy. Fabulous. :)

Yeah, I like that bass line and the production is top drawer as always. I enjoyed the video to this one too. It come over as quite an intimate song to me.

A great track Mora. :)

The Bar / Re: What are you listening to?

I've sometimes wondered if the Christmas classic Carol of the Bells is a little too creepy for a Christmas song. I believe it's been used in various horror movies. 😱 Still, I like it! 😃


Lola Astanova performed a great piano rendition of the song with an orchestra.

Great lyrics, vocals, production, mix, and, of course, guitar! Nicely done! I enjoyed listening! My favorite lines featured the most amusing lyrics:

There's gonna be no presents Christmas morning
Too much port and brandy on the way
Santa caught red handed drink n driving
The scuffers have impounded Santa's sleigh


Cool stuff, man! 8)

Cheers,
Joseph


Thanks Joseph. Good to hear from you. All the recent AI shenanigans dampened my enthusiasm for a while. But I need the forums like everyone else who does this. It's a way to get heard...and to hear what everyone else is doing. It's a community thing which I appreciate. So I'm going to get right back on board, both here and on the other two forums I frequent. I appreciate your kind words about my Christmas tune.
