Don't laugh. Just wait for someone to generate an ai bot to enter the song competition if it's even possible.

I’ve been watching this guy called Seth drums on reels and it’s got all these modern songs converted into different eras, just listened to lose yourself by Eminem as if it was done in the 1950’s

Interestigly that Paloma Blanca song I've noticed the beat in that song is so prevalent in a lot of songs. I had a playlist of songs the other day and several songs I was like. That's sounds like the beat from Paloma Blanca.

I'd be willing to train it on the finer points

 

[Dont_be_a_Plonka]

Well I'll be getting my first DQ. Only one song worthy of getting votes so can't fill the ballot.

This applies to most rounds tbh.
Is the playlist that bad???

 

[JHF1870]

what about for the music?

 

[Dont_be_a_Plonka]

what about for the music?

That's the easy bit.

For instance this round would work like this.

BillyAI- "Hai I'm BillyAI how can I nom for yu today?"

Me- "Nom any old shit with a piano in it"

BillyAI- "Sure. Would yu like me to find something quality and enjoyable to listen to?"

Me- "Hell no"

BillyAI- "Gotcha. How about something novel and interesting"

Me- "Don't even think about it"

BillyAI- "Cool. Should I find some exciting new musicians keen to push the boundaries or would yu prefer some classic forgotten favourites?"

Me- "I'm gunna go with neither"

BillyAI- "Understood. So yur wanting any old mediocre, bland or overplayed shit that just happens to have a piano in it?"

Me- "Now yur thinking like a Song Contest participant!!!

This feels scarily accurate in how AI responds lol

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Jethro Tull ypurs?

Standout so far on 1st listen.

Still 5 to 6 songs I like. Whitlams is always nostalgic

Aqualung still remains the worst billy of the contest to date.

Couldn't believe it when it won.

Just be thankful I didn’t hook you up with David Hasselhoff singing country roads.

 

[Hydatina Physis]

New Gorillaz album is going to be sick

No doubt 6 songs in the next 10 weeks get nominated.

Country would have to be the least nommed genre just thinking about it

 

[JHF1870]

Some real catchy tunes. One of those songs sounds I think is a popular instagram reel I think.

Could have gone one of three ways for my 5 votes but I decided to vote for songs that really captured the theme. Strong beautifully crafted piano without being overbearing on the vocals.

Some excellent nominations chosen

Nommed less that funeral doom, chiptune or digicore?

Australian users bought the most county on bandcamp this year so we clearly have a taste for it.

 

[Plugger35]

Boted

Only one song worthy of getting botes apart from mine, the rest just filled the ballot but I didn't want to get a DQ like Ocha905

 

[Fossie 32]

Good list, easy to find 5 I liked

 

[Fossie 32]

Most / all of Supertramp's have good keyboards

 

[1990crow]

I might be late with results. This Bondi shit is a bit overwhelming.

 

[1990crow]

Most / all of Supertramp's have good keyboards

Considered them

 

[Plugger35]

Roger Hogdson is one of the greatest keyboard players and songwriters of all time, he's a genius.
