旋律性
歌曲的曲调是否清晰易记,是否遵循了明确的音乐模式。旋律性强的歌曲一般具有清晰、令人难忘的器乐或声线。
不插电
衡量一首歌曲对不插电乐器(例如钢琴、吉他、小提琴、鼓、萨克斯)而非电子或数字合成的依赖程度
Valence
通过歌曲的和声和节奏成分,传达的音乐积极性或情感基调。高情感值与幸福、兴奋和愉悦的感觉相对应,而低情感值则与悲伤、愤怒或忧郁有关。
舞蹈性
综合各种因素,包括节奏的稳定性、节奏模式和节拍重点,来确定一首歌曲是否适合跳舞。一首“适合跳舞”的歌曲可能具有稳定的节奏、重复的音乐结构和强烈的重拍。
能量
曲目的感知强度,可能受节奏、动态和音乐紧凑程度的影响。一首高能量的歌曲可能节奏欢快、乐器编配丰富,而一首低能量的歌曲则可能音乐编配简洁、节奏较慢。

歌词
There's a rumour of a midnight man
So silent in disguise
And every time he looks your way
You can see it in his eyes
Like a window to the storm
He just invades your paradise
Don't you buy what he is selling
It's just lies
When he says:
"These hearts are willing"
The story goes:
That these dreams are free
Only takes a moment
But you must acclimatize
Don't you buy what he is selling
It's just lies
Over your left shoulder I have seen the angry beast
Heard the war horn screaming, as they gather for the feast
Seen a star-crossed angel with the death-card and a shield
(We're walking through mindfields)
You see an angel as she takes you by the hand
(We're walking through mindfields)
Her lips are moving like she's praying
(We're walking through mindfields)
She speaks so softly and you want to understand
What she's saying
There's a stairway leading to the sun
I walk it in my sleep
And a ship of fools above the sky
Who've gotten into deep
With a doorway into nowhere
And the path is way too steep
Don't loose your angry soul
It's yours to keep
Where it ends
It's the beginning
And it stays
Right to the end
The reason is unclear my friend
It almost makes me weep
So don't loose your angry soul
It's yours to keep
Over your left shoulder I have seen the angry beast
Heard the war horn screaming, as they gather for the feast
Seen a star-crossed angel with the death-card and a shield
(We're walking through mindfields)
You see an angel as she takes you by the hand
(We're walking through mindfields)
Her lips are moving like she's praying
(We're walking through mindfields)
She speaks so softly and you want to understand
What she's saying
Over your left shoulder I have seen the angry beast
Heard the war horn screaming, as they gather for the feast
Seen a star-crossed angel with the death-card and a shield
(We're walking through mindfields)
You see an angel as she takes you by the hand
(We're walking through mindfields)
Her lips are moving like she's praying
(We're walking through mindfields)
She speaks so softly and you want to understand
What she's saying
(We're walking through mindfields)
You see an angel as she takes you by the hand
(We're walking through mindfields)
Her lips are moving like she's praying
(We're walking through mindfields)
She speaks so softly and you want to understand
What she's saying
