What would legendary film actor Klaus Kinsky want to say today about his working relationship with famed German film director Werner Herzog? How would he incorporate these thoughts into a song? What if this song were composed in the late 194Os and assigned to one of the big bands (possibly Tommy Dorsey's)?

I posed all these question to AI -- here's what it produced:

Verse 1:
In the heart of the wild, I found my place,
Under your relentless, unforgiving gaze,
Werner, you pushed me to the edge of the night,
In the madness, I found the light.

You saw the fire that burned in my soul,
Made me a vessel, your vision's control,
Through the jungles and the rivers wide,
In your chaos, I found my stride.

Chorus:
Werner, your dreams, they captured me,
In your lens, I found what I could be,
Through the rage and the storm, we made history,
Werner, you brought out the best in me.

Verse 2:
In "Aguirre" I felt the weight of your dreams,
Through "Fitzcarraldo's" madness, your passion streams,
A ship over mountains, an impossible feat,
With you, every challenge I was ready to meet.

You saw the darkness, the fury within,
Turned it to art, where chaos begins,
Our battles were legends, our stories untold,
In your vision, Werner, my spirit was bold.

Chorus:
Werner, your dreams, they captured me,
In your lens, I found what I could be,
Through the rage and the storm, we made history,
Werner, you brought out the best in me.

Bridge:
In every scream, in every fight,
You saw my soul, you saw my light,
Through the pain, through the strife,
You gave my madness a reason, a life.

Verse 3:
Now the world looks back on what we’ve done,
The tales of our battles, how we became one,
In the annals of cinema, our legacy will stand,
Werner and Klaus, forever hand in hand.

For in your films, my spirit still roars,
Through every frame, our passion pours,
In the end, it's clear for all to see,
Werner, you forever set me free.

Chorus:
Werner, your dreams, they captured me,
In your lens, I found what I could be,
Through the rage and the storm, we made history,
Werner, you brought out the best in me.

Outro:
In the wild of your vision, I found my true call,
Werner, with you, I stood tall,
Through the madness, the fury, the endless sea,
You brought out the best, the beast in me.
