Computer Composes Song Based on Hundreds of Eurovision Entries

A duet written by a computer program that had analyzed hundreds of Eurovision songs was performed by an artificial voice and Israel’s first Eurovision winner, Izhar Cohen, and was released days ahead of the 2019 competition.

The song, Blue Jeans and Bloody Tears, was created by an Israeli team from a number of lyrical and musical motifs generated by an algorithm that had been fed hundreds of previous Eurovision entries. Credit: Sweaty Machines & Sulkybunny via Storyful
