Which do you prefer, studio or live


Studio

Live

Both sound good. I'm leaning more towards the studio version.

The singing at 2:19 in the studio versions is a little slower than
in the live version 2:20. Slower seems to fit the song better.
Giving it a more ethereal quality. Studio version also has a bit more
umph to it in terms of bass.

I think the instrument that gives oomph to the song's climax sounds more distinct and better in the studio version.

Studio starts at 3:12 and transforms starting at 3:36

Live starts at 3:10 and transforms starting at 3:32

Just saw this "Dave Ball, the instrumentalist in the synth-pop duo Soft Cell, has passed. according to the BBC. No specific cause of death was cited, although he suffered serious health complications after a back injury; he was 66."

I never cared for that Motown stuff. But Soft Cell did some other, very good songs.


Dave Ball is the one on the right.

Good one for Halloween

Hilarious lyrics

[boredjedi]

Doesn't seem to be an audio only for this song just this Ai created video which
quite frankly doesn't fit the theme of the song at all. No lyrics available either.
Hmmm. Good song though. The singer reminds me of another but can't quite
but my finger on it yet. Too early heh.

Luckily the words are clear so I can just jot them down

Clock keeps ticking
Can't Slow it down
Chasing minutes in a busy town
Hands are full but my heart feels bare
Running so fast I'm getting nowhere

Phone keeps ringing I can't ignore
Every knock's another chore
Dreams on a shelf collecting dust
Life's a race but where's the trust

No time to live
Not time to breath
Caught in a web I can't conceive.
Every second slips away
When did living become a delay

Morning coffee's a fleeting sip
Deadlines hanging like a sinking ship
Plans are made but never unfold
The rush is silver but the moments are gold

No time to live
Not time to breath
Caught in a web I can't conceive.
Every second slips away
When did living become a delay

I think this is AI generated music https://www.youtube.com/@SombersonicRecords

I was thinking the same thing. I know for sure the video part is Ai. Lyrics, however, better than most human created songs today.

"Dreams on a shelf collecting dust"

Test, brother, test

Now for some human-generated music

[boredjedi]

Test, brother, test

Oh bugger got lazy checking that. Hasn't happened in a long time.

[boredjedi]

Looks like the entire channel is set to only play on Youtube.
I tried another video got the same message. Looks like
the music is probably Ai going by the description of the channel

Sombersonic Records thrives at the intersection of human ingenuity and machine precision. Together, we’re not just making music; we’re shaping the future of it.

Some Type 0 Negative instead

You just posted that disturbing video like a week ago.
