I have always loved this song, from when I fits heard it on my little 8 transistor radio back when it came out. I would not have guessed 66, I would have put it a year later, which might be when I heard it, being from the back country we called the state of Maine and late for everything fashion). got some great lines ("everybody seems to Naaag me", "even my old man looks good", "I'll change that scene some day"). Very mid/late 60s with sitarish sound (almost stolen from a Rolling Stones riff), good changes, nice chorus, upbeat groove despite the negativity of the lyrics. What is to dislike?

Mind to share the link again? You didn't actually have to remove your post lol Noone expected you to do a marathon in February (even though this may be a good resolution for the coming months).

There's my upvote.

Honest opinion, song is well structured, but has no hook. Nothing that grabs me. Also, there are some weird production choices. At several points, I thought I heard my vacuum cleaner turning itself on before I realized that sound came from your song.

How are you going to prove that you'll walk the distance?

It's just easier to make it. No royalty or licensing to have contracts with either. Of course the average person will still find music they want, but the commercial side of music will be hit, not to mention the novelty of it all. Anyone with only an idea will be trying to get ears on their new tracks.

Ultimately, not much will change in terms of abundance of music and its enjoyment... yet I'm sure there will be effects that we only recognize afterwards.

Is the Paradise City cover the one with Fergie and Cypress Hill?

Its a mood

Exactly what I thought. Yes this is happening. It will continue to happen if it is making money. It doesn’t mean all artists will do it. Not an expert, but I am hopeful!

Why would that music be able to successfully complete with real music, which doesn't appear to be under threat of being deleted? I mean, you already get showered with shit music in elevators and online and in the store, that hasn't replaced real music. Why would AI do that?

There will always be talented artists making good music, even if major labels aren't propping them up. We live in an age where solid recording equipment can be had for minimal investment and digital music can be mass distributed. It might require a little searching on your end, but it will always be there.

Check out the album "Paper Mache Dream Balloon" by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. You won't turn it off for a month

Or a bike, if you’re lucky enough for that to be safe.

There will be a reaction, I mean I refuse to use it, and dgaf about Songs that are 2 mins long.. such Songs always feel curiously incomplete or like an interlude..

You're upset that there are songs with catchy hooks.

Deleted now

Gotta drown out the existential dread somehow.

Good point.

Tiktok really is ruining everything.

It almost always goes better the other way around. Every pop song ever outside a few exceptions sounds better as a rock/metal song.

Just wait till AI music is spit out at us daily. We'll get nothing but whim inspired mash-ups and elevator music.

He'll be back claiming he did it just to get more attention and introduce a new song

Can't fault him if it works (aside from the morality of lying to people, which is becoming societally accepted as long as the ends justify the lie)

> I’m terrified this will completely take over the music industry

Minute long songs? You mean grindcore is going to take over the music industry now?! Count me the fuck in.

The question isn't "Is it possible", the question is "What would his motivation be"

His motivation is to get us to listen to his song, the walking doesn't do anything for that goal other than as a carrot for listening to the song
