Tell HN: Viral Hit Made by AI, 10M listens on Spotify last few days

1•montebicyclelo•2h ago
The song is an unofficial cover of Stromae's Papaoutai.

The author has stated it's AI in their YouTube video descriptions [1] [2], e.g.

> Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the original song's lyrics or melody. This is an Al-generated cover intended for entertainment and homage. The original composition, lyrics, and music are the sole property of the original artists, writers, and copyright holders.

It has gone viral in last few days, due to TikTok and YouTube Shorts.

10,000,000 listens on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/track/0HI7kOxEfnSMD2Z27BJnJN

There's various other YouTube videos of it with millions of views.

I heard of it myself through YouTube shorts, and after a few listens suspected it was AI.

This is actually the first song where I would not have guessed it to be AI. I think the video is "performed" by a real human?
