Does Amanda Michelina's music use AI?

This is the rumour that Disney, Sony and every pissed-off RIAA musician has spread. As I've said like a hundred times this year, NotePerformer renders classical scores. Peter's ML technology wasn't used to produce my covers. I'm sure you all have forensic audio technology. Pull it apart and you'll see what's what. As you'll see, there is no autotune and it's 5-8 parts recorded separately. It locks perfectly because I have absolute pitch and love vocal arranging. Paul listened in to the Beatles ones: I tried to get in the groove with Ringo as well. - The point was that nobody believed Paul when he said Please Please Me was largely an album of him overdubbing himself (ie McCartney). In fact, McCartney exists because he claimed he'd done most of the work. He did spot-on impressions of his friends, much like I did them. When they say 'a studio drummer did it' - they mostly mean Paul did it. His feel is on the beat, but square: Ringo did all the neat syncopations. Hence tracks with a square drum part, but syncopated bongos... Universal knows this. That's why they don't mess with him: it's a great gravy train, and the governments didn't want people knowing that Paul was the sound. Paul and Yoko lease the master recordings to Universal. Universal doesn't own them. It's the same regarding Taylor Swift. Disney didn't know that: it's a trade secret. My little theory is that Spotify and others have subtly 'corrected' the records. That's why people hear the Beatles incorrectly. https://chatgpt.com/share/6a9dd21a-7fd0-83ec-a10c-4b8a2ba85263 - What I revealed was what sunk Sony: Paul owns the overwhelming majority of the songs. He did well over 50% of the total work in all the Beatles albums, alongside George Martin. They went line by line, phrase by phrase, and Paul won most of the songwriting royalties. However, Ringo, John and George got credit for things they added to Paul's songs. Paul largely bought out Olivia's claims, but Ringo kept his percentages. This is probably why Here Comes The Sun was aggressively promoted. Yoko owns the royalties to some of the biggest hits. Ticket To Ride, I Feel Fine, I Want To Hold Your Hand etc. -- that's all John. Changing the chords doesn't count; changing the melody does. George Martin did that so many times that Giles lives on those royalties. - Zendaya and Jane didn't believe me, hence Watchin' U and Coming Up. Betty Anne produced Watchin' U with Don. She gave me a little story about each of the whānau in her new band, and told me how they sang. Turns out she used to babysit Jezza, my older half-brother, in the 1980's.

Ok, so his tragic death poses an automatic question: are his songs still good? Until the Divine Pitch album, which the suits were censoring as it was done. Should we separate art from the artist? Th

If I Fell in the WingNut demo is mostly me, slowed down by 15%. They probably electrified my rhythm guitar part with ML. My groove is almost identical, but a touch faster. Showbands were virtuosically quick.

Olivia and her people probably spent millions in ad placements for George's hits. They're too broke to promote Blow Away, but that's their next plan. That's why I'm suspicious of her people: they're LA suits trying to squeeze out bucks from the current streaming model, even though she's forming Imagine with us. Spotify seems like a waste to Paul, but Olivia's raking it in from Here Comes The Sun.
