Johnny Cash Sings Barbie Girl


This site was new to me and whoa boy, amusing and sad at the same time.

This fellow is using AI to mimic singers singing songs they never sung and I imagine in a year or so, only dogs will be able to tell the sound of the real singer from the AI singer.

Here's Johnny Cash singing Aqua's Barbie Girl:

That is uncanny.


Gotta add this, 'Frank Sinatra' singing Gangsta's Paradise!

Wow, that’s crazy!
I wonder how the families of the singers feel about this.

reply

That was sick!

reply

That. Was. Awesome!

It is amazing tech but it raises some questions, at least for me. I seem to recall a war film project a few years back that was planning on putting CGI James Dean in a role and there was a lot of debate about it.

I doubt the families like this AI/CGI stuff .

I think it’s the future - there’s no holding it back now.

Having recently gone to the ABBA Voyage CGI concert with the girls, I was blown away. They’ll all be at it soon.

why dos it sound like folsum prison blues?

reply

What they should do is create a modified version of Walk the Line (2005) using AI and deepfake techniques to make Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon look and sound/sing like Johnny Cash and June Carter.

It doesn't sound like he has his heart in it. But then he is dead so I guess that's understandable.
