Mechanical song

Machine's voices steal, returning accuracy unreal

Can't know if the show is actual or no

Imperfections, are not the goal, but give music its soul

From analog to digital sound loss, not original

Pitch correction is the direction

Consternation with reverberation

Special effects is what one expects

Lip sync rinky-dink no one detects

No concern about quality only frivolity without defects

No technique so to speak, just the beat

Tiny speakers but do they match your sneakers?

Sound quality devoid, am I the only one annoyed?

Sound engineer larceny overlaid harmony

auto-tune leaves the listener immune

to a song that is just plain wrong

songs today not the same as yesterday

Music influences many and I am no different. Your poem is cool and kind of brings a new perspective to how we view or listen to newer music? Oh well, it is all a matter of taste. Like Jacob below, I wonder what will still be played 20 years from now. I am betting there won't be a Taylor Swift channel, but classic rock will still be hanging on. : ) Long Live Rock!!!

Thanks Will for the review and comment. Yes what they call music will always be around. The question is whether people will be playing it. I love classic rock, jazz, blues, classical, pop, R&B as well as country and most all else. I am too old fashioned to appreciate AI music yet.

Real music, late fifties and all through the sixties...and we are still hearing it on the radio today..sixty years later...do you think the music of today will still be played 60 years from now? My thought is "no."

Hardly memorable.

Thanks Jacob. Yes and no, I hear some good songs but they are few and far between, there are some exceptional artists, Dimash, Tina S, Ren, Amira Willhagen but so many are not worth listening to.

Indeed. It all went downhill after Bach.

Thanks John for the read and comment yes that's what they say. I don't mind so much the down hill but music made by engineers not musicians bothers me.
