Lyrically Speaking 2/2/24
Sorry for how late this is, but I've spent at least the past ten hours (at least) without an internet connection. Funny thing is, I thought about posting it early before I went to bed last night, but thought.... naw, I'll be up well before dawn. Yeah....
Those of you who actually follow "the news" have probably heard a lot about artificial intelligence lately. The dreaded AI. It's existed since the days when it made 8-bit Nintendo bosses so easy to beat with their predictable moves. Now it's finding its way into way more than just computer opponents. I don't know much about all the other uses of AI, but one thing I do know a lot about is AI art. Since I accidentally stumbled upon it last June, to say it's become an obsession of mine is putting it lightly. I've spent much of my free time playing around and learning how to use words and checkpoints to make images. Eight months and an almost $2,000 new computer later, I've got a new side business that just in the last month has almost paid for a quarter of that dream machine's cost. Yeah, I was thinking more about that than posting the LSWE game during the outage this morning.....
Anyway, since I've done art games in the past in LSWE, I figured I'd put The Mothership to good use....
Below are sixteen images I made yesterday using my AI program. They're not quite the quality of stuff that earns me some spare change, but they'll do for LSWE.
The ODD numbered images represent a song title. Identify the song title and then name the artist for a point each.
The EVEN numbered images represent an artist. Identify the artist and then name any song title they recorded for a point each.
I realize that even "fake art" is interpretive and I'll accept anything that makes reasonable sense. Good luck!
Kroxquo Bonus: Name a song with artist about inhuman machines.
Image Bonus: Rage against the machine...

Those are some BEAUTIFUL images! I'm glad you've found a new outlet for your creativity and artistry, the side hustle is just a bonus! Speaking of, I've been planning on getting a memorial tattoo for Violet and was thinking about contacting a graphic artist I know in Chicago and then just present it to a tattoo artist whose aesthetic I like. But maybe I can inquire about commissioning a piece from you (if you're accepting private clients).
The ODD numbered images represent a song title. Identify the song title and then name the artist for a point each.
The EVEN numbered images represent an artist. Identify the artist and then name any song title they recorded for a point each.
I realize that even "fake art" is interpretive and I'll accept anything that makes reasonable sense. Good luck!
1. Candy Girl - Ricky, Ronnie...and, well you know....
2. Am I making this too tough? It seems like just Queen would be too simplistic, so I was thinking Queen Latifah, but you would have been more definitive with her look. Welp, going for the glaringly obvious instead of trying to figure out gingers with diamond cut sapphires..
Queen - Killer Queen
Obvs.... I need to look back at the image and see if I can find a hidden knife a la The Last Supper
3. Shock the Monkey - Peter Gabriel
At least I think it's him solo, for some reason I associate this with Sledgehammer
4. T-Rex - 20th Century Boy
If anybody other than possibly Hottie comes up with something other than Get It On, this monkey will be shocked...ha!
5. Bitch's Brew - Aerosmith
My first thought was Strange Brew, but this seems to fit better
6. Glass Tiger - Don't Forget Me
Now this would be a gorgeous tattoo! I'm also making up for going with their biggest hit by leaving out the parenthetical....
7. Basket Case - Green Day
My alternative was The Sweetest Little Baby in Whole Wide World (Why are You So Cute?)
8. Poison - I Won't Forget You
Had to double check the even/odd on this one...
9. Fox on the Run - Tom T. Hall
Everybody that bet on me saying The Sweet, pay up!!
10. Men at Work - Land Down Under
11. Crocodile Rock - Elton John
12. Sir Mix-a-Lot - Baby Got Back
This one made me laugh... oh, the song titles I came up with before realizing it was an artist one.
13. Downtown Train - Rod Stewart
14. Alice in Chains - Rooster
15. Wildfire - Michael Murphey
I guess that's it, but it's a dead ringer for Blucifer, of DIA fame...
16. Los Lobos - La Bamba
I know this isn't right because there's only one and I'm going to kick myself when I find out the answer...
Kroxquo Bonus: Name a song with artist about inhuman machines.
In the Year 2525 - Zager & Evans
Yes, I know it's a cop out, but it's late and I'm tired....

Re: Lyrically Speaking 2/2/24
Because there were so many different answers given for the images, I decided to play this like The Match Game and award an extra point if you got the title or artist I was thinking of... which made for some very high scores.
CANDY GIRL - Frank Valli & The Four Seasons or Ronnie Bobby, et, al.
This one by far got the most different interpretations out of all of the images, and I accepted most (but not quite all) of them. Just about anything related to candy or sweets was accepted. Oh, and did you pick up the Annie Bonus to make this a four pointer?
Anything by QUEEN
This one was pretty straightforward, which in itself seemed to throw someone off. Kudos to Frank to turning this one into a bonus Annie Bonus...
SHOCK THE MONKEY - Peter Gabriel
There are many common ordinary objects that are still beyond the grasp of the AI art overlords, and apparently an electric chair is one of them. I had to grab a pic off Google and have it turn the dude (who was actually a wax figure) into a monkey...
Anything by T-REX
This image was skewed because I had to really up the vertical to horizontal ratio to get the damn thing standing. Apparently the default dinosaur for AI is a stegosaurus. Big props to Panic for "Jeepster," which will net him a JJCP or two...
WITCHY WOMAN - The Eagles
I think I took all of the alternate answers for this one, including Bitch's Brew which is probably better than what I intended...
Anything by GLASS TIGER
This may have been what inspired me to do this game, because AI can make some really awesome things out of glass, diamonds, ice, you name it...
THE CAT'S IN THE CRADLE - Harry Chapin
It amuses me so much that Earl missed this one, though still got credit for Basket Case, which describes most cats anyway...
Anything by POISON
And this would be the one that had me sort the images into titles and artists, since it could go either way.
FOX ON THE RUN - Sweet
Or Anthony Michael Hall, or whoever. As with Candy Girl, any artist who did a song by that title was accepted...
Anything by MEN AT WORK
AI likes to render all women with big boobs and all men with hipster beards....
CROCODILE ROCK - Elton John
I don't think anyone missed this one, and really, you shouldn't have....
Baby Got... errr, Anything by SIR MIX-A-LOT
This was my fave of the bunch, and naturally it was a last minute fill-in because I couldn't get the AI to render a doctor with a pirate's hook in place of his hand...
DOWNTOWN TRAIN - Rod Stewart
The city buildings were key here, though anything referencing a train was accepted...
Anything by ALICE IN CHAINS
I knew this group was going to throw some of the people who could identify it.... but I couldn't resist. I took Cinderella, and there may have been another alternate I accepted that I'm forgetting now....
WILDFIRE - Michael Martin Murphey
As we discovered in that Tangredi game I did a few years ago, put Wildfire and The Unknown Soldier together and you get A Horse With No Name...
Anything by LOBO
I knew going in that there were going to be some guesses for Los Lobos, which I did accept even though there's un lobo solamente. But if the Los Lobos guesses didn't beat out the Lobo answers, then it was close...
Image Bonus: Rage against the machine...
There was something about seeing a group of stuffy guys in suits going gangbusters on an old pinball game that absolutely cracked my ass up. So the AI has selected melly as the winner of the IBB...
CANDY GIRL - Frank Valli & The Four Seasons or Ronnie Bobby, et, al.
This one by far got the most different interpretations out of all of the images, and I accepted most (but not quite all) of them. Just about anything related to candy or sweets was accepted. Oh, and did you pick up the Annie Bonus to make this a four pointer?
Anything by QUEEN
This one was pretty straightforward, which in itself seemed to throw someone off. Kudos to Frank to turning this one into a bonus Annie Bonus...
SHOCK THE MONKEY - Peter Gabriel
There are many common ordinary objects that are still beyond the grasp of the AI art overlords, and apparently an electric chair is one of them. I had to grab a pic off Google and have it turn the dude (who was actually a wax figure) into a monkey...
Anything by T-REX
This image was skewed because I had to really up the vertical to horizontal ratio to get the damn thing standing. Apparently the default dinosaur for AI is a stegosaurus. Big props to Panic for "Jeepster," which will net him a JJCP or two...
WITCHY WOMAN - The Eagles
I think I took all of the alternate answers for this one, including Bitch's Brew which is probably better than what I intended...
Anything by GLASS TIGER
This may have been what inspired me to do this game, because AI can make some really awesome things out of glass, diamonds, ice, you name it...
THE CAT'S IN THE CRADLE - Harry Chapin
It amuses me so much that Earl missed this one, though still got credit for Basket Case, which describes most cats anyway...
Anything by POISON
And this would be the one that had me sort the images into titles and artists, since it could go either way.
FOX ON THE RUN - Sweet
Or Anthony Michael Hall, or whoever. As with Candy Girl, any artist who did a song by that title was accepted...
Anything by MEN AT WORK
AI likes to render all women with big boobs and all men with hipster beards....
CROCODILE ROCK - Elton John
I don't think anyone missed this one, and really, you shouldn't have....
Baby Got... errr, Anything by SIR MIX-A-LOT
This was my fave of the bunch, and naturally it was a last minute fill-in because I couldn't get the AI to render a doctor with a pirate's hook in place of his hand...
DOWNTOWN TRAIN - Rod Stewart
The city buildings were key here, though anything referencing a train was accepted...
Anything by ALICE IN CHAINS
I knew this group was going to throw some of the people who could identify it.... but I couldn't resist. I took Cinderella, and there may have been another alternate I accepted that I'm forgetting now....
WILDFIRE - Michael Martin Murphey
As we discovered in that Tangredi game I did a few years ago, put Wildfire and The Unknown Soldier together and you get A Horse With No Name...
Anything by LOBO
I knew going in that there were going to be some guesses for Los Lobos, which I did accept even though there's un lobo solamente. But if the Los Lobos guesses didn't beat out the Lobo answers, then it was close...

Hopefully I got these all right, but since I'm not 100 percent sure what I initially accepted and didn't, the scores would be difficult to verify....
