I jokingly provided "yiff" (a furry term) and the lyrics are surprisingly on point

    Verse 1
    Solid as the sky, as the ground
    True as the light, in the dark
    If you wanna yiff tough, gotta do right
    No part of the plot

    Pre-Chorus
    He was my brother, he was my friends
    He had my beating heart even though

    Chorus
    We can howl a great big yiff back
    More beautiful than ever before
    And oh how we went reeling
    Knowing all along the way you were bringing

    Verse 2
    He had me up against the wall
    He had me up against the wall
    I did not always yiff the way he would
    Oooh, he had me good even though he

    Pre-Chorus
    I feel the wood underneath my feet
    The whisper of the springs

    Chorus
    We can howl a great big yiff back
    More beautiful than ever before
    And oh how we went reeling
    Knowing all along the way you were bringing

    Bridge
    In a place you never been
    And hear the dogs yiff

    Chorus
    We can howl a great big yiff back
    More beautiful than ever before
    And oh how we went reeling
    Knowing all along the way you were bringing


Random word + rock + neutral gives you Smashing Pumpkins lyrics

  Verse 1
  I want the cantaloupe black of my life
  I want the cantaloupe black of my birth
  I want the cantaloupe black of my tomb
  I heard that when you were young

  Pre-Chorus
  I wish I was the cantaloupe of the sunshine
  To fall into the melt snow

  Chorus
  Red is the cantaloupe of love
  Blood red is the cantaloupe of lust
  The cantaloupe of the rose
  The cantaloupe of the rose

  Verse 2
  Wanna throw my kite high above the rain
  In the cantaloupe of the roses
  I saw the sunrise on the wall
  I saw your eyes were my cantaloupe

  Pre-Chorus
  Said your eyes were the cantaloupe of the sky
  And your eyes saw everything

  Chorus
  Red is the cantaloupe of love
  Blood red is the cantaloupe of lust
  The cantaloupe of the rose
  The cantaloupe of the rose

  Bridge
  The social scenes in ash st
  So cantaloupe me a different coloured

  Chorus
  Red is the cantaloupe of love
  Blood red is the cantaloupe of lust
  The cantaloupe of the rose
  The cantaloupe of the rose


Happy EDM about death:

  Verse 1
  Love is stronger than death, love is stronger
  Than death has given you. Boy
  I flew away from the love I found in your eyes
  In love I discovered death
  
  Pre-Chorus
  Lust, hate, death
  Lust, hate, death
  
  Chorus
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  
  Verse 2
  There is no life without it
  And there is no death without it
  And there is no way without it
  Love will be the death of you
  
  Pre-Chorus
  The shadows haunting you
  Watch them following you
  
  Chorus
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  
  Bridge
  I can be strong I can live through your death
  Love can kick your life to pieces
  
  Chorus
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes
  A death, sometimes, sometimes


Damn "Love can kick your life to pieces" is a great line and as far as Google is concerned totally original.


Untill now. We have been indexed!


I’ve often wondered if major search engines score searches on “uniqueness” and flag high-scoring queries to review their possible value.

For example, if I have a shower thought for a killer product or service, I’ll search to see if it already exists. It would seem trivial for Google to tag my query for further review, and possibly R&D. What evidence would I have of the original though? Personal browser logs?


Input: love

Output:

  Verse 1
  With love and hope inside our eyes from the world we grew
  And the love the love our family make
  I'd been here once before
  He seemed to ask to ride beside me
  
  Pre-Chorus
  I need love oh love
  It's about be in love
  
  Chorus
  A little bit of rain there will always be love
  And I knew you were in love with me.
  For the way that our love's become a game
  To show you I'm in love
  
  Verse 2
  You make a fool of yourself my love
  You take what you've been denied
  To think you've been looking in my eyes
  I don't want a broken love
  
  Pre-Chorus
  And I've got love all over me
  When I'll let you in and we'll see what this love can do
  
  Chorus
  A little bit of rain there will always be love
  And I knew you were in love with me.
  For the way that our love's become a game
  To show you I'm in love
  
  Bridge
  And heaven opened up high
  I'm in love with you and I always will love you
  
  Chorus
  A little bit of rain there will always be love
  And I knew you were in love with me.
  For the way that our love's become a game
  To show you I'm in love

Seems to lean reeeeeallly hard on the exact seed word provided. Someone buy this bot a thesaurus...


haha. It also doesn't appear to lean on the word at all thematically, just pastes it in to standard musical cliches (and mashup pop cliches) for the appropriate genre/tone. Which as we can see is great when your seed word is 'love', and a bit weird in a not particularly clever way when your seed word is 'herpes' or 'flagellation'[1]. The results look fun and sometimes inadvertently brilliant, but not much that a toy script couldn't produce.

It'd be more fun with an AI generated chord pattern to go with it, but that'd struggle to compete with the i IV V vi pattern in a suitable key for the genre/mood to being a convincing musical accompaniment to sing along to too :D

[1]unfortunately it's down so I can't see how it can handle moderately complex to interpret but very likely to be the subject of a song stuff


This website doesn't exist ... Or at least is down now


They just got a takedown request that doesn't exist from a lawyer that doesn't exist on behalf of an artist that doesn't exist for a copyright violation that doesn't exist.

A very sad country song about a dog:

Verse 1

And there on the hog

A hound dog ran away

Hey dumb robot, what do you know about this speed

A dumb dumb dumb dog a dumb dumb dumb dog

Pre-Chorus

B---hes call me dog

Because I do all the n---a talking

Chorus

Dog, my personal dog

This song was supposed to go this week but anyway

I bought a dog just to

Check off my shoes

Verse 2

Hung like a dog

Better off dead than

The same to my lady

Steal your father and give him to the dog

Pre-Chorus

He looked a funny dog

Aside from that he was boring

Chorus

Dog, my personal dog

This song was supposed to go this week but anyway

I bought a dog just to

Check off my shoes

Bridge

Well, if I had a dog in my town

I ought to make a never never end

Chorus

Dog, my personal dog

This song was supposed to go this week but anyway

I bought a dog just to

Check off my shoes


This is my favourite. Glorious singalong nonsense, and I love the way the sad country band brought on a rapper for one of the pre-chorus bits


Lots of fun.

I made a similar Show HN for Valentine's day, to use existing Diane Warren, Boyzone, Chinese, or Rock lyrics to help me find phrases to compose a love letter. These are using real lyrics, but taking the data and randomising it could made similar AI-generated songs.

This is too easy. What this needs to do is be able to generate songs that are already written within some amount of error %. Then extend the application (a method or conclusion) to an unknown situation by assuming that existing trends will continue or similar methods will be applicable. (extrapolate)


> What this needs to do is be able to generate songs that are already written within some amount of error %

That is really easy. You just switch out some words using a dictionary, maybe make sure you are using a rhyming dictionary for words at the end of a line.


I tried something challenging and the results are pretty good.

Song Type: Love

Genre: Metal

Lyric Mood: Very Sad

Verse 1

No one lead you astray

If there is no love all I can pray for is sin

There is no one to love me

There is no one to adore me

Pre-Chorus

They called themselves love

They all wanted to be

Chorus

I hate you, I love you too

Want this too, and you want it too

No chance for love

Just war in the streets

Verse 2

This is sad but truth

My lips they would love to kiss

I have seen men with no heart

I have seen young kids with no love

Pre-Chorus

So then we can rebuild the love

So we can reach you

Chorus

I hate you, I love you too

Want this too, and you want it too

No chance for love

Just war in the streets

Bridge

A life without your arms would be so empty

A life without your love would be so incomplete

Chorus

I hate you, I love you too

Want this too, and you want it too

No chance for love

Just war in the streets


I managed to confuse it though. I think the meter's thrown off kilter too by this one.

Topic: Defenestration Genre: Pop Lyric Mood: Happy

Verse 1

Lock him up or defenestration the key away

Those shackles are holding me

Defenestration away the keys to my heart

Defenestration away the keys to my heart

Pre-Chorus

I can feel you run up inside, did I defenestration your heart right over the edge?

I erase all of my faults, I think of only you

Chorus

Defenestration my check on your ground

Baby, walk on me

Defenestration your hands up if you get what you come for

Defenestration your hands up if you the number one guy

Verse 2

Defenestration a glitter umbrella in the ring

Flick a fly and a shake a hand

Who am I to defenestration that away?

Should be able to stand your ground

Pre-Chorus

Defenestration it up and show you I still got some

I see you, I roll another one

Chorus

Defenestration my check on your ground

Baby, walk on me

Defenestration your hands up if you get what you come for

Defenestration your hands up if you the number one guy

Bridge

Defenestration us a line and pull the plug

Bring your silence loud and hold it down

Chorus

Defenestration my check on your ground

Baby, walk on me

Defenestration your hands up if you get what you come for

Defenestration your hands up if you the number one guy


I think both the meter and the soundness/grammatical-correctness would benefit from replacing the Noun defenestration with the verb defenestrate


mike patton might make that work


Could pass for a song by Creed, I can even hear Scott Stapp's voice in there...


I thought it was about this classic song:

Gopher Tuna! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIwrgAnx6Q8




Q: Anyone knows if there are any service that is equivalent of 'This Voice Does Not Exists'?

Google Text-to-Speech has good Wavnet based voices[0], but the focus seems to be generating human like voice intonation, accents but not generating infinite (or large) set of different voice characters.

Then there are services like Lyrebird[1] where focus is on cloning a real person's voice (ex. your own).

But there doesn't seem to be any which creates fictitious voice characters which is totally new every time (synthesizing pitch, tone, accents, intonations); same as perhaps what GAN does when generating 'deepfake faces'.

There's a subtle link on the story page to a directory of sorts with a few more: https://thisxdoesnotexist.com/


recently: https://notrealnews.net (arguably not ...doesnotexist, but it's using AI: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22314222)


The cat one produces quite a lot of nightmare creatures.


Someone should connect this with This Melody Does Not Exist (which I think does not yet) and This Voice Does Not Exist (same). Point site A at an output of site B, which had been pointed to an output of Site C.

Also, if I took these lyrics, set them to music, sang them and sold them, where's the copyright?


AWS DeepComposer https://aws.amazon.com/deepcomposer/ and AWS Polly https://aws.amazon.com/polly/ with some autotune?


> where's the copyright?

You would at least have copyright over the recording itself


Hm, I want to say that this lyrics pretty much exists. Photo of person can be faked, but faked song or text is still (but maybe arbitary bad and non-original) as real and true as "real" song or text If i remember correctly, this idea was in G.E.B. (sorry for bad english)


I see a copyright troll opportunity. So, generate lots of lyrics. Search for new songs with lyrics. Find one that used a lyric from the site. Sue them for breach of copyright.

I would have added a legal phrase that said that I will not do this.


A dead mans name is bork

I cannot be the martyr denied by grace

See, I am a man words has found

Is designed to bork


Well, they do now.


They do now.

Down as of this comment. (Backend engine)


Took several minutes even for the frontend to load for me. Then yeah, the backend eventually returned an error. I guess we'll never know what lyrics don't exist. :)


Same here. Clicked to generate the lyrics and get the never-ending spinner.
