CRIME TIME 

As I come deeper in my thoughts
Pronouncing reality's dark hopes
Not just how we can live it
But as well how were doomed to believe it
Taking time just as an answer
Has it been you that has the dancer
The dancer that flies in the air
The air of thoughts to connect our fair

As i went now deeper, in my thoughts, having a sipper
Pronouncing reality's dark hopes, oh my shit i mooving backwards

Is it time that has the answer or is it you that has the dancer
The value of the thought into timefull space
The value of its meaning as it gives its brace

And now Feel, Time to Heal
And now Bow, To the Show

So come on friend don't be an amend
So come on friend don't be an amend
So come on friend don't be an amend
So come on friend don't be an amend

So come on friend don't be an amend
Cross your soul with a thought as you breathe to your goal (x2)

And now that you are in your face, forget about this tree
Smoke comes from this road, of this universal dream (x2)

CRIME TIME

Hurt me a lot 25

I have been hearing so much AI music lately on SoundCloud and these  thoughts have been percolating with me for a while and finally they coalesced into a song. (created without the use of AI).

You got tired of struggling so hard to write a great original song
And then this amazing newfangled technology came along
Now you’re using AI to create music, and it’s a much easier process
And you’re convinced you found the ticket to achieving great success.
You tell yourself you’re a great artist because prompting takes a lot of skill
But deep down you know the AI did most of the work and you swallow the bitter pill
People complement you on your guitar playing and they tell you your voice sounds great
It makes you feel so good but you don’t ever set them straight
Those classic rockers used to write 10 or 12 good songs every couple of years
Now you’re posting two or three songs a day and hoping for a bunch of cheers
You’re rolling the musical dice, hoping you’ll come up with a catchy viral hit 
But there’s so much music flooding the internet that no one gives a shit
You tell yourself you’re a great artist because prompting takes a lot of skill
But deep down you know the AI did most of the work and you swallow the bitter pill
People complement you on your guitar playing and they tell you your voice sounds great, it makes you feel so good but you don’t ever set them straight
Some people believe we’re living in simulation and none of this is real
We’re just digital creations in a computer with the ability to feel
But even if that’s not the case, we’re quickly, heading to a place where no one’s going to be able to tell the difference.
You used strum your guitar, trying to capture lightning in a bottle and the songs that emerged came from you.
And now the songs you write with AI, what they’re saying, you don’t have a clue.
Music used to feel therapeutic, it was a window on your soul that you could share.
But now something feels missing because your songs no longer lay your heart bare.

Prompting Takes A Lot Of Skill

What're those two up to?...i'll bet they're shoplifting  😄

When i'm not playing video games....
...i listen to and create Music.
I get into everything: Abba to Zappa...Grindcore to Gershwin...Nine Inch Nails to Nina Simone...Mike Oldfield to My Bloody Valentine to Miles Davis
  I LIKE MUSIC....composing and listening   😎
For the record: I am a keyboardist and sometimes drummer. About 90% of  the keyboard work is me actually playing a Yamaha Midi keyboard. Now you know...
