Anybody can post a challenge.

The rules of the game are simple, take any song you like from any genre you want, put the lyrics through any AI [you may weight lyrics as the AI allows] that you want and post the resulting image here under the post title Name That Song [GENRE]. After 48-72 Hours or if the answer is guessed sooner, edit the post's title to [Solved][Genre] and put the song title and artist (and optionally any highlighted lyrics) in a spoiler tag in the body of the post.

Other than that, enjoy.

Here is a list to a few AI image generators you can use.

First hint at 24 hoursSince it's been 24 hours, here's a hint: The crown is important

Second hint at 48 hoursSomeone already guessed the band's name. And there is a reference to the song's title in both this picture and the lyrics .

AnswerHeavy lies the crown by Orange Goblin.

Who am I to, to make the rules, to break the rules and slay the fools How am I, to be the man, who rules the land, with sword in hand Fire roars, upon the sores that carry heroes off to war Heavy lies the crown I wear, but I did swear this weight to bear

We stand for truth and honour And on the morning tide We head to war together Beneath the Northern sky And Odin's ravens lead us on to victory.

Probably something from The Sword, maybe Barael's Blade?

Great song by a great band, and thematically in the right direction. But sadly no dice.

Rage of Angels - Orange Goblin ?

Close, but no cigar.

Correct!

"Who am I to, to make the rules, to break the rules and slay the fools How am I, to be the man, who rules the land, with sword in hand Fire roars, upon the sores that carry heroes off to war Heavy lies the crown I wear, but I did swear this weight to bear
