• Abstract summary: This project aims to simplify the traditional songwriting process with deep learning techniques. We developed a unique preprocessing format using tokens to parse lyrics into individual verses. We found that generation yielded higher recall (ROUGE) in the baseline model, but similar precision (BLEU) for both models.

• Abstract: The traditional songwriting process is rather complex and this is evident in the time it takes to produce lyrics that fit the genre and form comprehensive verses. Our project aims to simplify this process with deep learning techniques, thus optimizing the songwriting process and enabling an artist to hit their target audience by staying in genre. Using a dataset of 18,000 songs off Spotify, we developed a unique preprocessing format using tokens to parse lyrics into individual verses. These results were used to train a baseline pretrained seq2seq model, and a LSTM-based neural network models according to song genres. We found that generation yielded higher recall (ROUGE) in the baseline model, but similar precision (BLEU) for both models. Qualitatively, we found that many of the lyrical phrases generated by the original model were still comprehensible and discernible between which genres they fit into, despite not necessarily being the exact the same as the true lyrics. Overall, our results yielded that lyric generation can reasonably be sped up to produce genre-based lyrics and aid in hastening the songwriting process.

  We introduce REFFLY, the first revision framework designed to edit arbitrary forms of plain text draft into high-quality, full-fledged song lyrics. Our approach ensures that the generated lyrics retain the original meaning of the draft, align with the melody, and adhere to the desired song structures.

  We propose a method for generating high-quality lyrics without training on any aligned melody-lyric data. We leverage the segmentation and rhythm alignment between melody and lyrics to compile the given melody into decoding constraints. Our model can generate high-quality lyrics that are more on-topic, singable, intelligible, and coherent than strong baselines.
