Kill these voices in my head
Fill it with lovely melodies instead
Oh yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah
Burn down this haunted house
Where I live when I'm alone
Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh Yeah Oh yeah
Sit here on my lap
Take me far where my hurts at
Oh Yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah
ch
With my Cowboy chords in a box
With six strings
Unbreak my heart when I begin to sing
Take my lonely soul
Heal it with a few pretty notes
Lift me back up with wings
With my Cowboy chords in a box
With six strings
v2
Melt this stark world away
With a song I'll write for today
Oh yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah
Convince me she never left
Strumming softy against my chest
Oh Yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah Oh Yeah
Repeat ch
Bridge
Bury me with it next to me
As we reach heaven in a symphony
Bury me with it next to me
As we reach heaven in a symphony
repeat ch
Tag
Bury me with it next to me

I find it difficult to comment on your output because it is mostly excellent and to such a high standard in terms of production that it goes without saying.

Also, I make no secret of the fact I do not enjoy country music :)

So this song. The production is, as always excellent. The song itself is an almost perfect example of country pop. Catchy and radio ready.

However, in my opinion the vocal is wrong. The auto tune is so obvious and in your face that it make me (as a listener) only hear that when I should be enjoying the song. But that might be just me. Your average non musician listener might not care.

Who is singing this and why did you not decide to sing it yourself?

Its an A.I. song , I wanted to see what all the fuss was about on Artificial Intelligence.  So now I'll hire Session players to copy riffs and I'll sing it . I ran the machine about 50 times on melodies , to see what it could do on my lyrics Nick. That being said , i think Sony might be in trouble stopping AI. but that was a good test sounding to pop , now its more country

Fascinating. It kind of proves two things.

AI is quite convincing.

AI is not as good as the real thing.

Correct on both parts , I'd have to cut it live with real players and sing it, its good as a tool . like plug-ins . Drum machines bass parts ect ect
You could run that all day and get 300 versions of that song

Drop it in the key of G . Get the tracks done by seasoned pros . sing it.. add BGVs for what the AI singer is doing in the higher register .
complete the Atomos mix , done . Here's the problem the AI does not do a resing on edited lyrics . but that's no big deal , since i'll be cutting it
thanks

I don't know, the truth is that the result is great!!! But it's Ai and that scares me... where will the reality of our voice, of us, be? I know it's easier this way, faster, more free time? but... well, that's it.

its a tad easier , since you can hear what you can do in building blocks , before you cut it . but still work cutting tracks and all the work that is involved on finishing a song . why would AI scare anyone ? Its a robot with a idea. Here's the way i look at it . When people were in horse and buggies , they kicked and screamed on "I'm not getting in that Model T". You saw how that worked out. AI is just another step ,to what a billion plug-in's people buy . drum machines . You can add to the list. Let's say you bought a plugin to replace a concert Violist( human). It's calling the kettle black on AI.

That's quite scary!  I was surprised at the auto tune as I've heard your stuff enough times so was pleased to see the explanation. 
Worrying times though.

AI and robots , Great tools , but you got it cut it with session players and sing it , So that will be happening soon. It is a tad scary how good AI is , that's for sure . So I imagine it will also improve .  like the first drum machine and now.
