One of the biggest debates surrounding artificial intelligence isn’t whether it can produce music, art, or writing. It clearly can. The real question is whether any of it can truly be called creative. Many argue that creativity is uniquely human—that it comes from lived experience, emotion, suffering, joy, intuition, and consciousness. AI, they contend, simply recombines patterns learned from billions of human creations. It predicts. It imitates. But it never creates. Others see it differently. They argue…

With St. Patrick’s Day in sight, this month’s featured track is “Me Lucky Charms.” It’s a swaggering, tongue-in-cheek take on the Irish leprechaun…  not the cute cartoon version, but a sharp-tongued trickster “full of spit and vinegar and a little sin.” SixFootStilts · Me Lucky Charms The song leans into the stereotypes on purpose: Guinness, jigs, pipes, St. Paddy’s Day walls plastered with his face, while reminding us that legend is often “bigger than truth.”…

(From Manifestation) A personal note about the featured song this month. Friends happens to be one of my wife Sandra’s favorite tracks on Manifestation. Which is mildly amusing, given that it’s essentially a song about being gently but firmly reassigned to the emotional penalty box.

Told from the perspective of a newly minted vampire, the song playfully dismantles the fantasy of immortality. Eternal life, supernatural power, and endless nights sound impressive until you realize what’s missing. No sunrises. No tears. No compassion. No shared moments that give life its meaning. At its heart, Envious is a…

Living Ghost is a haunting alt-rock critique of social media’s glossy illusions where a perfectly filtered smile can hide a breaking heart. Built on atmospheric guitars, a pulsing groove, and vocals edged with quiet desperation, the song pulls you into the emotional free-fall of someone fading behind their own digital mask. The lyrics paint a striking portrait: a woman whose online presence is “more alive than she actually seems,” hashtagging joy while trembling behind the…

The most streamed track from UAP, “Last Straw” is a razor-edged rock anthem about whistleblowers, cover-ups, and the cost of truth. Driving guitars, a relentless groove, and the warning “When the whistle blows, you better watch your back” make it impossible to forget and impossible to hear just once. Beneath its pulsing rock groove, “Last Straw” plays out like a classified briefing , coded references to crash retrievals, psy-ops, and truth embargoes run through every verse, painting a tense picture of those…
