'Just make the Weeded Out film. We promised it to the public.' No, you promised the public a prestige gay drama. Make another one. My body, voice and songs aren't the legal property of SPADA. - 'Don't be so uppity; Paul really wrote those songs.' No, I really wrote those songs. They're in my private journals. Ask Sir Paul the chords to one that isn't on my website... It's my hard work that Paul's using to pay off his debts etc. He produced the tracks and films remotely. - 'Be willing to fail (so that we can make money exploiting you)' It's the part they don't say which really counts, isn't it? - 'Our Beatles film must go ahead...' Well, if it can go ahead without the rights to the songs, then so be it. Otherwise, I'd suggest making films about a different 1960's band. - 'That AI movie was a piece of shit' Yeah, you're welcome to that view. I'll be laughing all the way to the bank. Lee and Sir Peter wouldn't finish Get Out and Vote for me; did it myself. That's how intense the pushback has been. Regulated Wives got my channels taken off YouTube for promoting sex!

Paul suggested the title. He's bored. Don and Harry hadn't seen how I did it, so they watched. - To reiterate: I do all these songs the same way. Rhythm guitar + lead vocal Bass Drums Lead Guitar

 
 
 
Song plugging

An ancient term, I know, but that's how Gershwin and Kern started out... That's how I see the various covers in the Imagine Triptych. Don told me that some of these covers are worth loads of money.

I'd also point out that AMPP is that prestige gay drama. If it's airing in the US, then it must be good, or at least broadcast quality. That means I'd win the injunction to prevent Weeded Out from being made. The Amanda/Tina story is being turned into a book. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oAhPslUQWwCwcdoTdRTc49rCTAVFB3jr/view?usp=sharing
