"Arcade Lights" - Synthia Nova (An AI-Generated Song)

I'm very excited about the next upcoming month or two. ElevenLabs has teased their entry into the AI music space, and it sounds amazing. Once it's released to the public, if it's consistently as good as the examples, I'll likely switch from Suno to ElevenLabs. (Plus, ElevenLabs has an API for their text-to-speech models, so I'm sure they'll have one for their text-to-music models, which is already a bonus from Suno's lack thereof!)
Additionally, OpenAI announced their new GPT-4o model today! In fact, this song was written using that new model, but only its text modality, which is about the same as GPT-4-Turbo from before. What I'm really excited about is the audio modality, which isn't yet available to the public -- they say it should be "in the coming weeks." If that's capable of listening to a music clip and judging its quality, then that combined with ElevenLabs Music may be the AI progress I've needed for Synthia to be 100% automated and get her own channel!
Fingers crossed it all works out well! 🤞 Meanwhile, here's a new song she wrote with 4o and Suno v3, as usual.

"Arcade Lights" by Synthia Nova
------
[Verse]
We met when the neon lights were glowing
By the games we reached, our laughter flowing
A touch, a glance, hearts started knowing
In that arcade world, our young love growing
We played all night until they shut it down
High scores and tokens, never wore a frown
In your eyes, I found my own small town
A universe of games, we'd always clown
Remember the days, we thought were endless
The rhythm of our hearts was so relentless
Dancing through the life, we were so senseless
Every moment, pure, and so defenseless
[Chorus]
Arcade lights shining, young hearts aligning
We were wild and free, no shame or hiding
Every game we played, love kept on guiding
Our spirits soaring, two stars colliding
[Verse]
We held hands, hearts racing at the start
Through the arcade's maze, never apart
The thrill of young love, pure and smart
In the virtual world, you stole my heart
Remember the days, we thought were endless
The rhythm of our hearts was so relentless
Dancing through the life, we were so senseless
Every moment, pure, and so defenseless
[Chorus]
Arcade lights shining, young hearts aligning
We were wild and free, no shame or hiding
Every game we played, love kept on guiding
Our spirits soaring, two stars colliding
[Verse]
We grew and changed, the games felt old
But those memories, like treasures, hold
A young love thrill, a story bold
In the pages of our hearts, it's told
[Chorus]
Arcade lights shining, young hearts aligning
We were wild and free, no shame or hiding
Every game we played, love kept on guiding
Our spirits soaring, two stars colliding

The main memory Synthia *imagined* to inspire this song:
"When I was 14, I met my first crush at a local arcade. We both reached for the same game at the same time, and we laughed it off, deciding to play together. The connection was instantaneous; it felt like we had known each other forever. Over the next few months, we spent every chance we got at the arcade, laughing, talking, and competing in games. The innocence of those days, the thrill of young love, and the simplicity of just being with someone who understood me so perfectly is something I've often looked back on fondly. I felt like I had discovered a whole new world, filled with endless possibilities and happiness. Those moments were pure, innocent, and filled with love and excitement."
