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。
BPM89
歌词
I’m on that slow roll, that’s how I go the distance
Like a space probe exiting the solar system
With all the generators I need
To provide decades of energy, maintenance free
Take it slow on the way to big things
You would’ve thought I was invented in 1816
And then slept on, and never fully deployed
Except as a fan in ventilators and toys
I’m not annoyed, I just bide my time
‘Cause I know my hyper-scientific version of rhyme
Can seem costly, heavy, and slow to ignite
And tough to commercialize, though many have tried
The dude abides, ‘cause all I need is inches
Competition leapin’ past me obsolete in minutes
I’m out to leave a legacy, not a speed record
Listed in a museum with the steam engines
I thought internal combustion had me
Fifteen hundred degree ignition, I can’t compete!
Until the onset of climate change
Every gas-guzzlin’ contraption, apply the brakes
I keep it movin’ like a Stirling Engine
Converting heat to work in an instant
I keep it tight like a closed-cycle
Thermodynamic system, churning pistons
I keep fresh with external combustion
Plus low internal pressure
Regenerator for thermal retention
Low key like a Stirling Engine
Low key like a Stirling Engine
Oh, look who’s comin’ back around
Who’s got that steady energy capture now?
The mainstream stays deep in hydrocarbons
But any heat source gets my cycle started
Carnot cycle-target-level efficiency
Hydrogen, geo-thermal, solar, no difference to me
Nuclear fission, any industry, waste heat
Converted into electrical energy
Oh, your fuel source has to be really pure?
Mine can be anything, even pig manure
I can transform it into AC/DC
Which means farmers in the developing world need me
I can even act as a battery for renewables
Trap that heat in recycled molten aluminum
And then convert it to current, for the final user
I can even work in reverse as a cryocooler
Make it freeze, when I pump that heat
Make it negative 80 degrees for vaccines
Not to mix metaphors, but I’m universal
Stirling style, wild versatile
My compressed air knows how to work a valve
Reducin’ methane waste and personnel
In other words, my flow is so low-maintenance
The type you want to go into space with
I keep it movin’ like a Stirling Engine
Converting heat to work in an instant
I keep it tight like a closed-cycle
Thermodynamic system, churning pistons
I keep it fresh with external combustion
Plus low internal pressure
Regenerator for thermal retention
Low key like a Stirling Engine
Low key like a Stirling Engine
I’m on that slow roll, like a space probe
And this is my time, if I do say so
Settings records for continuous effort
Technology finally catching up to my potential
Space Age Rap Star, NASA said it
“The most reliable heat engine ever invented”
Not to take credit, but I just keep running
Steppin’ over dead energizer bunnies
Plus dead quiet, for sonar evasion
A Gotland-class sub in the Swedish Navy
Not to mix metaphors, but I’m freakin’ crazy
Sneak up and take a pic of the USS Ronald Reagan
Too much noisy friction in these engines
I got that free piston flow that’s efficient
Never crashing, practically everlasting
Don’t ask me when the springs wear out, it’s never happened
If you ask me about my future work
I’m running scientific instruments on Jupiter
KRUSTY reactors in a Mars colony
Not bad for a centuries-old technology
Not to mix metaphors
But there’s no stoppin’ me
I keep it movin’ like a Stirling Engine
Converting heat to work in an instant
I keep it tight like a closed-cycle
Thermodynamic system, churning pistons
I keep fresh with external combustion
Plus low internal pressure
Regenerator for thermal retention
Low key like a Stirling Engine
Low key like a Stirling Engine
