In the following Wilson shares his thoughts about his latest tune: “So there’s now a track called ‘December Skies,’ which is a collaboration between me and artificial intelligence kind of pretending to be me, which is a really strange, surreal feeling as I’m sure you could imagine.”

As a whole, “December Skies” is a love ditty by how Wilson was challenged to create music in a different way. Although AI created the lyrics, the music is lovely by how the instrumentation sizzles the air with the sounds of holiday magic while the artist serenades the ears with his solid vocal tones.
