Sonic and Surreal Stanzas Envisioned #4: "The Thing I Love" Reimagined By Flux

This is #4 of the musings where we let Flux interpret song lyrics.  

I take and feed Song lyrics into Flux and then let Flux interpret them into whatever image it wants with no further direction.

The song given to Flux is: The Thing I Love

It is by: MAX & Andy Grammer

The process is where I give Flux the lyrics three times.

-       Option 1 - Once with a 3:2 Landscape ratio

-       Option 2 - Once with a 2:3 Vertical ratio

-       Option 3 - Once with a 2:1 Landscape ratio and to write the song title in the image.

What I have found is that sometimes Flux is obedient, and will put the song title into an image, other times it will still do what it wishes.

I have noticed that Flux will switch styles along with how it chooses to interpret things. In this case it chose what feels like 3 different artistic styles.

Option 3 is what you will always see as the cover image on these articles.

Option 1 and 2 will always be in the body of these musings.

Here is Option 1

Here is Option 2

The lyrics that were used.

(The following lyrics belong to the those who wrote them. I do not lay any claim to these lyrics. They are posted just to show where the flux model drew inspiration from.)

Blue-eyed bandit, won't you take me home?

Everythin' is broken here, but with you, I am whole

Everythin' you touch turns into gold

So put your hand in mine and watch me shine, shine, shine

'Cause the thing I love about me is you

The thing I love about me is you

The way I light up when you walk into the room, oh

The thing I love about me is you

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey

You don't know who I was before we met

Photographs remember things I wish I could forget

But you adore me despite who I was

So if you catch me smiling your direction, maybe it's because

The thing I love about me is you

The thing I love about me is you

The way I light up when you walk into the room, oh

The thing I love about me is you

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey

Don't wanna know who I'd be if I hadn't met you

Don't wanna know who I'd become if you were gone

'Cause the thing I love about me is you

Thing I love about me is you

The way I light up when you walk into the room, oh

The thing I love about me is you

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey (ooh)

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey (la-la-la, la-la-la, yeah)

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey (thing I, thing I love, thing I, thing I love)

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey, hey
