[Music Generation AI] A song about secretly feeling anxious as Hobi's discharge approaches [SUNO]


Less than 2 months until Hobi's discharge!

Hello. How is everyone doing on this Saturday night in August, feeling a bit desperate that summer vacation has ended before I knew it?

I realized that it's already been 2 months since Jin-kun was discharged, ARMYs...! That means Hobi's return is right around the corner, doesn't it? While I was melting away time watching 'Are You Sure?!' and 'Run Jin', time just warped. This is crazy ( ゚Д゚)

I'm currently in a week of intensive viewing of concert footage, and I was so impressed by Hobi's staging and his ability to make you feel like you're in a real relationship with him, so let's make this the next one. That's it!

SUNO-ing like breathing

I think everyone has a vague image of what a fan of a certain member is like, but for me, a Hobi fan is a 'real-relationship-type older sister'.
They have a bit of a big-sister vibe, but I imagine them in bed at home, kicking their legs and going 'Hobi~~~!'.
Ah, this is just my delusion, so whether it's accurate or not, please don't worry about it!

I wrote this song imagining how such Hobi fans might be waiting for his discharge.

Here are the lyrics

Not Over Yet By Neiro

Leaving behind the words 'Don't forget me'
The connection was cut, that was our goodbye
I'm fine even without you
I have plenty of things to do

Repeating the playback every day
With your songs and photos
Storage and heart capacity running low

Before I knew it, I can see D-DAY
Just a little longer until the day I've been waiting for

Hey, wait just a little bit
Nothing is over yet
Am I the only one feeling anxious?

I haven't been able to rewatch Bon Voyage or SOOP yet
I can't even speak Korean
I promised I'd grow and welcome you back

Only you will come back having grown bigger
I'll welcome you looking the same as before, but will you forgive me?

Will you smile at me even if I'm exactly the same as before?
Before I knew it, I can see D-DAY

Just a little longer until the day I've been waiting for
I didn't cheat, that much is true

I couldn't cheat, that much is true

An irregular pattern that deviates from the simple Verse1/2 -> bridge structure

The source material is probably my impression from Hobi's last live stream before enlistment, his letter at the 2024 FESTA, and X. Sorry if you think, 'That's not it at all.' But I think everyone likes being spoiled a little by Hobi in the end, right lol

I laughed at the Hobi fans who reacted so strongly to Hobi's letter at the 2024 FESTA where he said, 'Honestly, did you look elsewhere for a bit?', and flooded the timeline with images of 'Hoseok when he confesses honestly'.... So cute lol

Maybe because I had the idea of Hobi's free-flowing rhythm in mind, the lyrics ended up being free verse, but thanks to that, it was hard to structure the song. Where is the chorus anyway ( ゚Д゚)

The hardest part was the abbreviations.
I always add subtitles in Japanese, English, and Korean, but I had to search a lot to figure out how to write things like 'Hobi-pen', 'Streaming/Mute', and 'Bon Voyage and SOOP'. Self-inflicted...

Here is the completed video

I had one I liked, but it glitched halfway through and started singing all the lyrics as 'DaDaDa...', so I immediately threw it in the trash. 'DaDaDa' is only for 'Dynamite'!
No, to be precise, it's 'Dynnnnnanana'. The person singing that part is Jin-kun, the oldest member of BTS. He will be on 24-hour TV soon, so please check it out. (Appeal to AI/music creation readers)

This problem of AI getting lyrics wrong or forgetting them is quite tough!
I wish it were easier to 'swap only the lyrics with the same melody and arrangement'!

Music creation memo:

The song style is as follows.

love, female vocal, synthpop, electro swing

This is a song I struggled with because the style wouldn't settle.
From the image of Hobi and Hobi fans, I started making it with a stylish, rhythmic feel, thinking pop-rock might be a bit off, but then I got stuck wondering what it should be.

When in trouble, use the conversational search AI, Perplexity! So, I consulted them as well.

Q. Please recommend a music genre suitable for these lyrics. I would like something bright, stylish, and rhythmic. Please exclude pop rock. A. For these lyrics, I recommend synth-pop. Synth-pop is a genre with bright, stylish, and rhythmic characteristics, which fits the mood of these lyrics well.

At this moment, you are my soulmate, Perple.

I hit a wall, and even tried leaving it entirely up to SUNO with just "love, female vocal" without deciding on a music genre, but it wasn't great, so I scrapped it. In the end, I created this by throwing Swing and synth-pop together like a mystery stew. Someone, please give me a tool that decides the music genre for me after I answer a few questions lol

I tried setting it to Disco, and was shocked when it produced a song that sounded like a Showa-era idol track. I seriously thought Naomi Kawai had descended. If it had turned out well, I might have accidentally used it. That was a close call.

That's all!

Before I knew it, the number of songs I've made with SUNO has reached double digits. This trend is lasting longer than I expected. I've already fallen into the AI gacha swamp once and paid for credits. I'm agonizing over whether to go for a second round. I'll decide once I've used up my credits.

During summer vacation, it was incredibly slow, probably because so many people were playing with SUNO. It would stop halfway through playback, or the songs I made would go missing, so I had no choice but to work while watching BTS concert footage. Naturally, I got distracted by that, so it took a really long time to finish. I hope I can do it faster next time!
