  1. I tried the http://www.songslikex.com site and I don’t think AI is gonna be much of a problem for a while. I typed in Dylan’s ‘When I Paint My Masterpiece’, a simple 3-chord folk/country tune, and besides a list of re-recordings of the same song, it suggested a Bon Jovi song that absolutely did not sound like x. Stupid computers…

    1. I can listen to Dylan or The Band do it, don’t have to listen to Bon Jovi and don’t really need any new bands because I have plenty of old ones that I love. And … get offa my lawn!

  2. My observation…Mainstream Media is dieing a horrible death by clinging with the politicians that pretty much is the only financial avenue that they have left.
    I see through the Netflix show ‘Comedian in cars getting coffee’, that they’re trying to get their audience back and keep ham stringing actors by just some jackass putting in a single complaint that they didn’t like a skit.
    The Mainstream Media keeps trying to change and yet keeps shooting itself in the foot by still following the politicians bullshit of the day. Alienating the audience even more as they’re trying to attract it back.
    Funny old comedy is totally foreign to these jackasses that can’t understand the attraction. So they keep banning it or discouraging it by distractions of racism. That too, they really don’t understand, just the shock value is what they are after.

    Trudeau’s problem is he’s been poisoned by the same propaganda CNN/CBC fountain that he’s paying for.

    Founded in 1954, the Bilderberg Meeting is an annual conference designed to foster dialogue between Europe and North America. Every year, between 120-140 political leaders and experts from industry, finance, labour, academia and the media are invited to take part in the Meeting. About two thirds of the participants come from Europe and the rest from North America; approximately a quarter from politics and government and the rest from other fields.

    The Bilderberg Meeting is a forum for informal discussions about major issues. The meetings are held under the Chatham House Rule, which states that participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s) nor any other participant may be revealed.

    Thanks to the private nature of the Meeting, the participants take part as individuals rather than in any official capacity, and hence are not bound by the conventions of their office or by pre-agreed positions. As such, they can take time to listen, reflect and gather insights.

    There is no detailed agenda, no resolutions are proposed, no votes are taken and no policy statements are issued.
