WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! (shouting) vs walking through the streets (normal)We rise together (together)Feeeling so aliiive (use cautiously, effects unstable)| Red Flag | Description |
|---|---|
| Adjective stacking | "neon skies, electric hearts, endless dreams" — vague imagery filler |
| Rhyme chaos | Inconsistent patterns or forced rhymes breaking meaning |
| Blurred boundaries | Lyric content crosses structure tags |
| No breathing room | Lines too long to sing in one breath |
| Mixed metaphors | Water → fire → flying — listeners can't anchor |
Metaphor discipline: One core metaphor per song, explore its multiple aspects.
Most of the time, let LM auto-infer. Only set manually when you have clear requirements.
| Parameter | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
bpm | 30–300 | Slow 60–80, mid 90–120, fast 130–180 |
keyscale | Key | e.g. C Major, Am. Common keys (C, G, D, Am, Em) most stable |
timesignature | Time sig | 4/4 (most common), 3/4 (waltz), 6/8 (swing) |
vocal_language | Language | Usually auto-detected from lyrics |
duration | Seconds | See duration calculation below |
| Scenario | Set |
|---|---|
| Daily generation | Let LM auto-infer |
| Clear tempo requirement | bpm |
| Specific style (waltz) | timesignature=3/4 |
| Match other material | bpm + duration |
| Specific key color | keyscale |
Rule of thumb: When in doubt, estimate longer. A song too short feels rushed.
Note: Lyrics tags (piano, powerful, whispered) are consistent with Caption (piano ballad, building to powerful chorus, intimate).
