The inspiration for LOVE ME LIKE YOU DID BEFORE came from an unexpected burst of creativity within the world of AI-powered music. While my project, Kara Vale, typically focuses on introspective and often melancholic themes, using AI to explore grief, healing, and personal growth, this track took a completely different direction. The whole song was born out of a spontaneous experiment between myself (as the creator behind Kara Vale) and the creative mind collaborating with RICHMOND, another AI-driven music persona.

We set out to challenge both ourselves and the capabilities of AI songwriting tools. Instead of following the usual emotional, synth-laden path, we wanted to see what would happen if we let the AI “play” with more upbeat, sun-drenched pop elements. Using Suno and other AI tools, we experimented with bright chords, lively drum patterns, and playful hooks. The mood that emerged felt so different—almost as if the AI itself was inviting us to explore a lighter, more spontaneous side.

In the process, we let RICHMOND’s signature style (AI-generated rap vocals) intertwine with the dreamy indie pop foundation of Kara Vale. Neither of our AI personas had ever “collaborated” this way before, and the excitement was real, both for us as creators and for the algorithms themselves! It became a true test of how far AI music can go: not just mimicking genre conventions, but combining elements in fresh, genre-blurring ways.

Lyrically, the song taps into nostalgia and the hope to rekindle a relationship’s first spark. But rather than looking back with regret, we wanted the AI to help express forward-looking optimism, a sense of joy and emotional renewal. The end result radiates warmth and hope, echoing the spontaneity that can happen when AI and human creativity work hand in hand.

With LOVE ME LIKE YOU DID BEFORE, we wanted to show that AI music projects like Kara Vale and RICHMOND aren’t limited to one mood or style. This collaboration is about embracing the full spectrum of what’s possible when you trust the process, lean into experimentation, and let both human and artificial imagination run free. Our goal was for listeners (and judges!) to feel that sense of adventure and sunlight that guided us through the making of this unique track.

Kara Vale - LOVE ME LIKE YOU DID BEFORE

I wrote this from a really raw and honest place, born out of those late nights staring out at the city lights and feeling a deep disconnect from the hustle. It’s about seeing the exhaustion in people’s eyes, including my own, this feeling of being trapped in a system that demands so much of our souls for a promise that feels hollow. It’s a critique of that 9to5 grind where we trade our authenticity for a pat on the back, not realizing the system is rigged from the start.

The core message, and the real meaning of the title, is about redefining the meaning of what "anarchy" can mean. It’s not the change through chaos and destruction you see in movies. It’s a quiet, personal rebellion. It's the anarchy of choosing inner peace over the noise, of finding richness in stillness, of allowing yourself to be truly, vulnerably human in a world that pressures you to be a machine. It's about letting go of what society tells you to want.

Bringing this all together was a challenge and I appreciate the way TwoShot helped me bringing this track through the finish line. I had all the ingredients, but the way I was able to master the track in TwoShot was such a help and the key to adding that final layer of polish, ensuring the track hits with clarity and power without sacrificing the raw, heartfelt core of the message.

Aidan Yagu - Give Anarchy a Try

C'est l'histoire d'un mec au RSA qui se trouve toute les excuses du monde pour se victimiser et ne pas avancer dans la vie, alors que le coeur du problème, c'est lui.

Paroles / Lyrics :

Un n'est un tout
One is not all
Pas d'atout
And that's all
Tout se gomme
Everything is erased
Pas d'or juste des pommes et
The gold of youth has evaporated
Je ne sais quoi de paumé ...
Leaving me on an aged earth

Quelle déveine
No chance
Ma veine explose
My vein is bursting
Dans ma paume
In the palm of my hand
Aucune pomme
No more future lines
Dors sur tes lauriers
Rest in peace
Sur l'oreiller
On your pillow
Tu vas sommeiller
You will sleep
Dans l'or rayonner
In gold you will shine
Sensas...
Thrilling
Sans savoir
Without knowing
Qu'il n'y a pas d'avoir
That nothing is free
Ni d'aveux
And may your wishes
Ni de vœux 
Are confessions

Sans avoir
Without having
Vraiment le choix
The choice
Tout s'échoue
Everything fails
Pas trop choux
And collapses
Et en quoi as-tu foi ?
Do you have faith?

Un n'est tout
One is not all
Mais tout comme...
And that's all
Foule de gomme
The crowd is huge
Est-ce que tout est comme
Are we the in-between
Nous en somme ?
A balance of sorts?


Et où nous en sommes ?
And where are we?
Avec des bulles ?
Does it fizzy?
Est-ce que tout est comme
Is everything like us ?
Nous ?
Qu'est-ce qui nous assomme ?
What is it that brings us down?
Et où ?
And where ?


Un n'est tout
One is not all
Et tout som-
-meil un grand coup
And that's all
Ça nous assomme
Loneliness is gloomy
Est-ce pareil partout ?
Is it the same thing everywhere?


Partout ou rien
One is not all
Un n'est tout
And that's all
Manitou aucun
Nothing is good
Aucun Manitou 
No god

One is not all

Shedding Skin

[Intro]
You were small
heavy eyes in a paper doll face
facing a tall figure too loud to ignore
and yet you are here

[Verse 1]
Tiny mind in a thunder dome
a tall shape carved out of bone
greedy hands on a selfish throne
you learned to survive alone
coping felt like too much breathing
but the air was never fresh
you swallowed every shriek
just to keep your body clean

[Pre-Chorus]
Twisted knives ripping at your chest
you wore it like skin
but your heart needed to scream
no one could hear but you

[Chorus]
Through the tangles through the shame
you’re more than the pain
more than the fear
you’re peeling back time
burning away behind your eyes
just shedding skin
take a step back and begin again

[Verse 2]
Buried deep in crooked rooms
memories bloom like toxic fumes
but light leaks in where cracks have formed
your body screams—you were warned
Let it rise let it scream
let the shadows lose their queen
you are more than what you coped
more than silence more than hope

[Bridge]
Eyes closed
Breathe in
Breathe out
Look down fall through the dark
Eyes wide open
You’re almost out
Look up
The body knows
Take the leap
The mind forgets what’s hidden
Listen in the deep where the rhythm can reset
It’s time

[Final Chorus]
Through the tangles through the shame
you’re more than the pain
more than the fear
you’re peeling back time
burning away behind your eyes
peeling off skin
burn it all and begin again

[Outro]
And still you did
And now you will take back broken lullabies

Reasons

This one is for all you Rock lovers out there... Listen close and maybe you will feel something that i did... Love this one. Its about the question we all ask sometimes, who will remeber me when im gone, where do all my trace go, Maybe we will all fade to nothing...Or maybe someone will carry our memories so that we dont just fade....

Enjoy

No Longer Here

[Verse 1] 
Who will open my closet one quiet day
Fold the shirts I wore when life felt okay
My shoes still standing by the door
Silent witnesses of all I lived before
Who will close my watch, turn out my light, wipe the dust off traces of my life
Will someone feel the wind like I used to feel
The sun on the table where time stood still

[Chorus] 
Who will clear my life when I’m no longer here
Who will find the letters, the dreams I left near
Who will call my daughter and tell her who I was
Who will hold my wife when the silence claws
And who will mend the hole I leave behind
How long till I fade from every mind

[Verse 2] 
Pictures fade and voices drift away
The laughter we once shared turns to grey
Names in phones become just lines
And the places I loved get lost in time
Will someone remember how my coffee smelled
How I walked in rain without needing to tell
Or will I just be another soul gone
A name once spoken, then forgotten on

[Chorus] 
Who will clear my life when I’m no longer here
Who will find the letters, the dreams I held dear
Who will call my daughter and tell her my name
Who will love my wife through the weight of pain
And who will fill the space I leave behind
How long till I fade from every mind

[Bridge] 
Maybe I’ll remain in a song, in the air, in a laugh that echoes from someone who cared
Maybe just a moment, but that moment’s mine
Cause I lived, I loved  and I left it behind

[Final Chorus] 
Who will clear my life when I’m no longer here
Who will follow the footprints that disappear
If someone listens close in the quiet and blue
Let them hear my heart 
Still beating for you
For Youuuu…


No Longer Here
