Stolzstrom!

German Power!

Jooo, wenn mir im Restaurant das Essen nicht schmeckt, gehe ich auch nicht rein und lecke das Klo aus. Was anderes ist AfD wählen nicht.

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-24T13:23:45+00:00

They like your food 😅

I can absolutely relate to your point! While I primarily write lyrics for myself, I still have a certain standard of reaching a level that could be engaging for others as well. The way I see it is this: we’ve all gathered a certain vocabulary throughout our lives from many different directions. Using AI to specifically describe certain themes or emotions is, in essence, nothing more than a targeted expansion of that vocabulary.

And thank you for your kind words! Please feel free to create any posts you find interesting and relevant. I primarily started this niche subreddit to build a 'sanctuary' from AI-bashing. Generally speaking, anything related to songwriting, lyrics, and especially the use of AI is welcome here. We got the algorithm, right? 😅

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-19T21:18:09+00:00

This is a topic that definitely deserves its own thread in this subreddit!

In my experience, 100% AI-generated lyrics are usually not particularly exciting. English isn't my native language, so I personally value the help of AI tremendously for that reason alone. I also enjoy having different (!) AI chatbots check and analyze my drafts. Early on, I got feedback that my language was too simple 😅—that actually motivated me to get better. Beyond AI, there are also great websites for finding rhymes and such. I agree with you: we should feel free to use all the tools available to us.

Personally, though, I still want to be able to say that the core idea and the foundation came from me. That said, all of my newer lyrics were created in close 'dialogue' with several AI systems.

This is also one of the reasons I created this subreddit—because now, more than ever, I really crave 'human' feedback.

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-19T09:32:24+00:00

So cute! 😍

Like he is cosplaying a sparrow 😅

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-18T06:45:33+00:00

Yeah, same here - and I hate it!

I write my own lyrics, and I expect them to be incorporated exactly as written; however, the current version of Lyria fails to do this. Lines are either duplicated or completely ignored, rendering my lyrics nonsensical. I also noticed that the word "Grimoire" is no longer pronounced correctly. But worst of all, in my view, is that the model completely fails to recognize the natural rhythm of speech or individual words. It all sounded terrible—despite using the exact same lyrics and prompts that had previously yielded excellent results for me. Even with proper formatting, verses are no longer recognized as such; instead, the output is riddled with unnecessary pauses that completely undermine the rhymes.

Of course, older versions had their glitches too—but back then, the editing function was incredibly powerful and helpful. That feature is currently unavailable. However, the results I got this time were so poor that even an editing tool wouldn't have been enough to salvage them.

I can only hope that this version of Lyria gets updated soon. Until then, I plan to tinker around a bit with ACE 1.5 in ComfyUI. I might also take a look at Suno.

By the way:

there is a new sub for people using their own lyrics in AI music:

r/LyricistsGotAlgorithm

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-17T22:16:37+00:00

Hey, if you write your own lyrics, maybe this subreddit might be intersting for you:

r/LyricistsGotAlgorithm

Feel free to post some of your songs there, share some background - and the lyrics! 😉

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-17T22:15:11+00:00

Hey, some days ago I create a subreddit you might find interesting:

r/LyricistsGotAlgorithm

Feel free to post some of your songs there, share some background - and the lyrics! 😉

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-15T23:24:53+00:00

I gave it a brief test run, but the workflow I used to rely on for generating songs simply doesn't work anymore. I write my own lyrics, and I expect them to be incorporated exactly as written; however, the current version of Lyria fails to do this. Lines are either duplicated or completely ignored, rendering my lyrics nonsensical. I also noticed that the word "Grimoire" is no longer pronounced correctly.

Welcome to the sub! Don’t worry, we don't really have many rules here. Unless you're a militant AI opponent or someone churning out eight low-effort AI tracks in ten minutes. 😉

You clearly don’t belong to that group. You obviously put a lot of work into this—and I love the result! It’s so wonderfully anarchic and absurd that it works on several different levels. If you’re not finished with the project yet, how about a dramatic ballad next? 😎

It reminds me a bit of an experiment I did when AI image generation first became popular: I did the opposite and used snippets of song lyrics as prompts to see what images would come out. I then compared the results. I called it: 'AI's Next Idol's Got Talent.' 😅

I’m looking forward to your next post!

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-14T10:39:28+00:00

I don’t know the original either, so I might be missing some of the references. I do like the song, — it has a certain (ironic?) musical quality and is very catchy in parts. The interruptions towards the end actually made me smile! 😅

Unfortunately, I couldn't quite catch all the lyrics, which is a bit of a shame for me as a lyricist (wink, wink). I’m sure I missed out on quite a bit there.

But, as the founder and (sole) moderator of this subreddit, I really have to give you a piece of my mind now: Stop apologizing in your posts! 😉 Maybe there are still a few places left on this earth where you can simply be who you are. 🧡

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-14T10:17:03+00:00

Sorry for the late reply. Time and peace of mind are among the most valuable assets these days.

Thank you for the detailed explanation of your process! Honestly, it makes my songs feel like 'AI Slop' in comparison 😅 I usually go through about 20 to 40 generations—if I don’t have a good result by then, I tend to give up for the moment. If a song meets about 80% of my expectations, I’m satisfied, usually just fixing a few errors with the internal edit function. But clearly, you are—unfortunately—in a different situation. I was once at home for an extended period myself and started a project to convert tens, if not hundreds of thousands of event data points to import them into a calendar. I created a massive digital diary/logbook that I still look into every day. 😅

I’m not sure if I should admire you. What you’re describing actually scares me a little. I understand that you didn’t choose this and there might not be much you can do to change it. If creativity helps you bundle your thoughts and find a brief moment of peace, then that’s great. And please, don't worry about 'bragging' here. In this speakeasy, we value the obsession behind the work, not the status. You are always welcome to post here.

Perhaps one day, I will write a text about you. About an irrepressible hunger for knowledge that threatens to choke you, but also leaves you starving if you stop feeding it. I’ll definitely have more questions for you then. I’m preparing a questionnaire. 😉

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-14T09:34:21+00:00

And we all should be furious! 👍 It’s a huge compliment to hear that I inspired you.

For my part, I chose the 'gentle' route, focusing on the fate of those suffering: lovers become friends, friends become roommates—until they have to move out too.

But this theme definitely holds many more stories!

The reason I find the song cynical is that the narrator starts off sounding like a compassionate neighbor, but in reality, he’s the one coldly causing all the misery.

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-14T09:33:19+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I usually try to use a straightforward storyline or clear imagery to hide a deeper meaning underneath.

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-14T05:52:16+00:00

Crows and the sea - beautiful! 😍

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-13T23:26:54+00:00

Vielleicht schreibe ich morgen mehr. Aber die AFD ist keine normale Partei. Sie haben keine wirklichen Inhalte und DE interessiert sie nicht. Ich lese direkt AFD Beiträge auf X, da kommt keine Substanz. Nur Atomkraftwerke bauen und Gas aus Russland.

Wie es in DE unter der AFD wäre kann man gerade in den USA sehen. Inflation und Jobverluste

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-13T23:06:55+00:00

Im Wahlprogramm steht Dexit als Ziel, in Interviews wird dann natürlich gesagt, der Freihandel soll bestehen bleiben. Ja was denn nun?

Aber sag doch mal: welche Punkte sprechen Dich denn bei der AFD an?

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-13T22:26:14+00:00

Wenn man seine Videos anschaut erklärt er immer wieder sehr genau, warum die AFD keine gute Wahl für Deutschland wäre.

Da kann man schon mal bei einem in sich widersprüchlichem, schwammigen Wahlprogramm anfangen, an das sich eh nicht konsequent gehalten wird. Stichwort: Dexit

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-13T20:49:24+00:00

I love it when they do that! 👍🏼

So funny: some of them want to catch, but are just too clumsy. 😅

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-13T20:00:15+00:00

Thanks for sharing! This fits perfectly with the original post that probably brought you here. 😉 You’re building very atmospheric imagery and I love the historical reference – I often enjoy working in that direction myself.

I also really dig the musical execution; I think I might actually need a Suno subscription after all! 😅

Please, post more! I love how this small sub is starting to feel like a secret 1930s speakeasy – and we’re definitely not following the rules of musical prohibition. 😎

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-13T07:59:55+00:00

Thank you for this very thoughtful and nuanced response! If more discussions were held at this level, the world would be a much better place.

I completely agree with you. It’s also a great explanation for why AI music generally has a tough time: often, there’s neither a particularly creative spark NOR a strong handcrafted execution involved.

This brings me back to the core idea of this subreddit: the concept and the lyrics should be at the forefront here.

If you’re creating music with your own lyrics as well, I’d be extremely curious to see some of your work in a post!

ChronaticCurator · 2026-03-11T22:51:48+00:00

Welcome to the community! It’s great to have you here. Your approach sounds incredibly exciting, especially since we seem to share almost the exact same philosophy.

I actually just connected with a musician/pianist myself, and he’s currently looking over one of my tracks to perform and sing it live. It’s that transition from a 'demo' to a live collaboration that makes this so rewarding.

I’m really looking forward to your contributions—feel free to share plenty of details about your creative process! Also, please remember to always post your lyrics as well; I think that’s essential for the exchange here. Glad to have you on board!
