Writing a Christmas song with the help of AI Technology
Music is undoubtedly one of the key parts of Christmas; whether you’re singing hymns, carolling, or humming along to your favourite festive chart music, the nostalgia and memories combined with these tunes are one of the many things that make Christmas as joyful as it is.
Playing around with ideas, we wondered how easy it would be to write our own Christmas hit. So, we did just that.
With the help of AI technology, we found out that you could take the human element of songwriting out and have a bot do it for you. The results? See them below.
Verse 1:
It's Christmas time, the snow is falling
All around the world, people are calling
To friends and family, near and far
To spread some love and light up the dark
Chorus:
Oh, it's the most wonderful time of the year
When the world comes together and spreads cheer
With love and joy, we can all feel the glow
Merry Christmas, from head to toe
Verse 2:
The tree is up, the gifts are wrapped
The fire is burning, the cookies are snapped
We gather round to sing carols and cheer
For the magic of Christmas, it's finally here
Chorus:
Oh, it's the most wonderful time of the year
When the world comes together and spreads cheer
With love and joy, we can all feel the glow
Merry Christmas, from head to toe
Bridge:
No matter where we are, no matter what we do
Christmas is a time to be thankful, and to be true
To ourselves and others, to give and to receive
For the spirit of Christmas, it's all about believe
Chorus:
Oh, it's the most wonderful time of the year
When the world comes together and spreads cheer
With love and joy, we can all feel the glow
Merry Christmas, from head to toe
What did we learn? There's a reason why music and writing land with creatives. Sure, there's a basis there, finding words that relate to one another and putting them together in an order that, on paper, makes sense. But (being the keyword here), you're missing the most important part, personality.
There's no doubt that AI can help you write information, but there’s still a need for a human touch. After all, you want the content to be digestible, relatable and, well, human.
