The Lyrics Game

Anybody can post a challenge.

The rules of the game are simple, take any song you like from any genre you want, put the lyrics through any AI [you may weight lyrics as the AI allows] that you want and post the resulting image here under the post title Name That Song [GENRE]. After 48-72 Hours or if the answer is guessed sooner, edit the post's title to [Solved][Genre] and put the song title and artist (and optionally any highlighted lyrics) in a spoiler tag in the body of the post.

Other than that, enjoy.

Here is a list to a few AI image generators you can use.

The bird is still caged, I'm afraid πŸ™‚

Blackbird by Alter Bridge? It’s a stretch, but the lyrics seem more hopeful than the song sounds in a really beautiful way

Not that one, no. Also an American band, but around 25 years older.

Dream theater's under a glass moon?

Also the pic looks like a stratovarius album cover xD

Also, could you pm me the answer, please? Dying to know

None of those, I'm afraid. However, @[email protected] just got it right: Master of the Wind (Manorwar)!

Oooh...yep, that makes sense. Thanks :D

Not that one. Holy Diver came out on 1983. Our mystery song came out almost a decade later, in 1992. The band itself has been around since 1980, though.

Manowar - Master of the Wind

Correct!! The image doesn't feel very "masterful" (I did try to get a dragon there or something but Midjourney just wouldn't comply), but it does otherwise decently match the lyrics. Your prize is the dragon I couldn't get in the image: πŸ‰!
