The video has a slightly different meaning to the album, but it's self-explanatory. Adding The Taliban! was an idea I got from the news, but Golriz came up with the idea. She thinks I'm funny: that's what she likes about me. Dawn is a Britten transcription. Yes, it's available: look at my portfolio. Something for MPL to publish. The other three interludes require multiple guitars. Imperfect Love is the official homage to Taylor Swift. After Midnight is an improvisation I made in Central Park, Wellington. Got hit on afterward... It's Gonna Sink In is a lyric about entering the shared trance state that I'm cultivating with Taylor and Sir Paul, while the video adds a climate change message. Circumventing Death was something I did for Jane and Chlöe. Mike is Jane's father. Watch Her Go! is my dig at the old pros who doubt Taylor can make a musical. Stolen Years was actually for Taylor, but the video moved Barbara Graham.👋 Sunrise was a lyric that I was working on, but decided it would be a better poem. Would've come out like Here Comes The Sun...

Yeah, they're definitely using AI on Taylor's tracks. The rhythm isn't right in Patient Zero or Cleveland! Sounds like Emanuel's recent songs. https://emanuelegarcia.substack.com/p/the-prize-i-love-a

I feel guilty that I'm not supporting the cause at Question Time, but it's not an option. My detractors have concocted a pattern of supposed disruption (which they blame me for). They told me via porn that some new rules were to apply to me. I didn't care for those rules, so I'm avoiding the Prime Omelette. Hence I wrote a song for people to play when they're sad. The EP turned out really different: that's Taylor's influence.
