Such a lovely place!

Neil Young’s song Unknown Legend:

Somewhere on a desert highway, she rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair flying in the wind She's been running half her life, the chrome and steel she rides Colliding with the very air she breathes The air she breathes

Pedro the Lion’s Leaving the Valley

Long desert highways Where the wheel stops, no one knows My sister breathing This song playing on the radio

It’s a pretty common theme in American music… Wild West, cowboys, Texas, truckers, Harleys etc.

But really this is annoying as fuck for one simple reason: You're talking to me like I claimed I'm some avant-garde artistic genius when all I was saying was that whatever the fuck I'm doing with Stable Diffusion has nothing to do with how any of the plaintiff's have ever drawn any images. It is original work. Just like that song that references desert highways. It might suck, it might be cliched, whatever, but it's still original work.

I write songs that suck all the time. I'd say somewhere less than 1% are any good!
