Sad Land . Rachel Philips / Not AI

https://hearthis.at/elvis-nash-xk/sad-land-full-demo-2/


V1:

Life is not smooth sailing, and I washed up on this shore

Another piece of wreckage from storm after storm

And I got used to lonely, like that’s all there’s gonna be

Like there’s nothing better waiting, out there across the sea

But no girl is an island

And it’s time that I stop cryin’


C:

I can’t stay in Sad Land

I know there’s more to life

Not every road’s a dead end

Not every step’s a climb

There’s hope on the horizon

It’s time to go and find it

If I ever wanna get to a better place

I can’t stay

In Sad Land


V2:

I’ve had some ships come in, but I’ve watched ‘em sail away

So certain if I stepped on board, they just would’ve sank

Who knows, we might’ve made it, but can’t worry ‘bout that now

‘Cuz regret’s a deep dark valley, that’s real hard to get out

So now I’m building my own boat

It’s finally time to go


CHORUS


SOLO


BRIDGE:

no girl is an island

And it’s time that I stop crying

    This is a good song, lyrics, vocals, and I enjoyed it. The sad part is that I couldn't tell if it was AI or human. Maybe it's good for us who use AI. Nonetheless, compliments to all involved.

    Well done!

  • @ElvisNash - Certainly has a positive message.. refreshing in the sea of depressing songs, including mine :)

    Ai is the new kid on the block , Before the robots , it was done this way . depressing songs are kinda a no no in hit writers circles

    Thanks Tammy and Bill

  • What I like about this last couple from you is how different they are from the songs you sing yourself.

    You're writing them to suit a specific style and that takes skill. Kudos for that.

    Excellent.

  • Well it is a songwriting site , demos are quiet common before AI entered the picture

    Awesome demo, Elvis! I love the vocals. The acoustic guitar outro is a nice finishing touch.

    @ElvisNash you just nailed the story of my life! And you're right, 'no girl is an island' tho' sometimes I'd like to believe I am. To sing as such, now wouldn't that be grand? Pretty song, Elvis. Very relatable for both young and older ladies.

    And alas! There's hope! 😘
