I was going to hold off on posting this until I've had a chance to read more about it, but I just today became aware of AI apps that can actually write song lyrics. I find this fascinating, so I just thought I'd throw it out here now and see if anyone has any thoughts on it. Here's an example of one of the sites:

Also found this article about Nick Cave's take on it: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jan/17/this-song-sucks-nick-cave-responds-to-chatgpt-song-written-in-style-of-nick-cave (https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jan/17/this-song-sucks-nick-cave-responds-to-chatgpt-song-written-in-style-of-nick-cave)
I'll have to read the article more slowly later; it looks interesting. Right now, though, I have a cranky author to placate.

OK, so I tried this. I randomly chose Song Topic "anger," Lyrics Genre "pop," and Lyric Mood: "sad." Here's what the app came up with:
I had to laugh at some of these lines. "I let my anger collide with your engine"? Is that supposed to be some sort of sexual innuendo? ha2ha
Verse 1
You never asked me to take it off
Color of anger
And when I touch the hand of God
I feel his anger burn me
Pre-Chorus
Got a new feelin, feelin kind of fever child
Gimme some more, gotta get wit ya
Chorus
I let my anger collide
With your engine!
For your anger, control
For your anger, control
Verse 2
And if he stares with anymore anger
He crawls out from under the rug
Let him sit on the end of it
For your anger, ignored
Pre-Chorus
Screams can hold back the anger longer
Deal with the present but to bend the
Chorus
I let my anger collide
With your engine!
For your anger, control
For your anger, control
Bridge
All the anger slowly dies
When she says try forget her
Chorus
I let my anger collide
With your engine!
For your anger, control
For your anger, control

I love how its way of keeping to the anger topic was just to put the word anger in every second line.

^^^
True. I hadn't noticed that.

Yes. I was expecting something a little more. . . erudite. :)

I tried it with a free trial of ChatGPT. Asked it to do a song lyric in the style of Bob Dylan. It just produced some generic sounding lyrics that could have been attributed to anyone on a bad day. I should have kept a copy. I don’t think lyricists are in danger of losing their jobs just yet.

I tried the site you did. I put the topic as Death and mood as Very Sad. This was the chorus
Chorus
Everybody beats me to death tonight
Everybody beats me to death tonight
Everybody beats me to death tonight
Everybody beats me to death tonight
Yeah I suppose that’s pretty sad. ha2ha

Yikes! ha2ha
I've been meaning to try a free trial of ChatGPT. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow when I'm supposed to be working. ;)

This is hilarious! It makes me think of all the weird songs my cousin and I used to make up when we were kids. She would have loved this.
I decided to go to the other end of the emotional spectrum and try butterflies as the topic and very happy as the mood. I had to hit the regenerate button five times to get a chorus that isn’t four lines of “Butterflies so sexy”. ha2ha
Verse 1
You and me are butterflies
The way you move, walk and talk like me and you
Move, talk and walk like me and you
Flying butterflies in the gray silence of space
Pre-Chorus
You set my joy, you set my heart free
You give me butterflies and you let me know
Chorus
We all need butterflies, to never fall
There need be butterflies, to never fall, baby
There need be butterflies, to never fall
And one day I hope we will be
Verse 2
You are a treat for a treat
You give me a thrill inside my heart
I get butterflies from looking at you
I remember, I remember the time
Pre-Chorus
Was so nice, had it since a child, catching butterflies
I wish you were mine, I wish I were you
Chorus
We all need butterflies, to never fall
There need be butterflies, to never fall, baby
There need be butterflies, to never fall
And one day I hope we will be
Bridge
You lift me up higher, oh you give me butterflies
You keep my heart alive, made it happy
Chorus
We all need butterflies, to never fall
There need be butterflies, to never fall, baby
There need be butterflies, to never fall
And one day I hope we will be
Will be what, I ask!

That’s beautiful

I’ve noticed one other rather large deficiency in the AI as a lyricist. It seems to be unable to construct a rhyme.

I decided to start the day with a very happy song about a hammer. …
Verse 1
Every word is like the one that would go
Like the hammer that has found
The answer to the question why
And the way the hammer makes
Pre-Chorus
Just a little bit of cocaine
Got a hammer in my hand
Chorus
Bring down the hammer on my heart
You brought down the hammer on my heart
A heart is a hammer
A mind is a jewel
Verse 2
This time youre standing right in my way
With a hammer in your hand
Born with a hammer down my life
I just sign for my people
Pre-Chorus
Shining into existence, with a hammer
Shining, shining, shining, shining, shining bright, shining features
Chorus
Bring down the hammer on my heart
You brought down the hammer on my heart
A heart is a hammer
A mind is a jewel
Bridge
And my heart is pumping like a hammer
A turning tide coming over me
Chorus
Bring down the hammer on my heart
You brought down the hammer on my heart
A heart is a hammer
A mind is a jewel

…..And one day I hope we will be
Will be what, I ask!
If it’s a song by The Caterpillars I think we know the answer

I was thinking, too, that my son and his friends would have had a total blast with this when they were younger. I can only imagine the words they would input.
Pre-Chorus
Just a little bit of cocaine
Got a hammer in my hand
That sounds a little ominous. :o

Agreed. That's a pretty big drawback. Also, a lot of the lines seem to be non sequiturs.
OK, well, I just had to try a very happy song about Normandie. ;D I found it too amusing to resist posting the whole thing. I also tried a sad Normandie rap song, but it was too raunchy to post. I'm sitting here alone in front of my PC and still blushing.
Verse 1
Normandie always gives me diamonds
Normandie always gives me pearls
If I had you, Normandie would make you
Normandie said lovers in tears must cry
Pre-Chorus
Normandie is a diamond inside and out
And it steps into my reality
Chorus
Normandie is my hollywood, Normandie is my world
Normandie is my kingdom, Normandie is my crown
Every word Normandie tells me
Every word Normandie tells me
Verse 2
Full of words when we tell no lies
You're sexy and you know it
You're sexy and Normandie likes it
You're sexy you gon feel it too oooo
Pre-Chorus
Normandie can always see where I am
Normandie knows we are so close
Chorus
Normandie is my hollywood, Normandie is my world
Normandie is my kingdom, Normandie is my crown
Every word Normandie tells me
Every word Normandie tells me
Bridge
Brings me food before I heat up
Normandie knows just what I like and Normandie knows for sure
Chorus
Normandie is my hollywood, Normandie is my world
Normandie is my kingdom, Normandie is my crown
Every word Normandie tells me
Every word Normandie tells me

Normandie is a diamond inside and out
That’s a sweet thing for the AI to say.

That’s a sweet thing for the AI to say.
Thank you! :) It is sweet. l'll take that. :angel:

Thank you! :) It is sweet. l'll take that. :angel:
OK, not sure why I typed "thank you." roll:) I was rushing, as usual.

You’ve inspired me to have AI write my theme song. Here is The Ballad of Moog
Verse 1
People paid you a pretty penny to make the crowd sway
And you hid the moog away but nobody ever hurt you
I can see the lights
Lights of the moog
Pre-Chorus
Moog money number one
We make money on our own
Chorus
If moog was water running underground
My fingers would be filled more than dry
Came down to country moog
Moog was the truth
Verse 2
Oh, the moog is getting loud
All the people in the town have gone away to the sea
In positions high in demand
New money, new drugs
Pre-Chorus
Became too lazy to be
Cut out the moog boy
Chorus
If moog was water running underground
My fingers would be filled more than dry
Came down to country moog
Moog was the truth
Bridge
Is the moog, let it play
Not keep them hanging on every word
Chorus
If moog was water running underground
My fingers would be filled more than dry
Came down to country moog
Moog was the truth

I was just going to suggest you use "Moog was the truth" as your tagline, but I see you've already done that. 8)
