Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Merry Krimpas, Happy Kwanza, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Birthday, Welcome Winter Solstice, happy you day…
…VBV/UBU…
This was not an easy decision by any means, very difficult, as we write we are in conflict, listening, over and over, lol (labor of love);)…
…broad brush time…
You know we’re not really a fan of this Holiday anymore, too self righteous, misunderstood, a hybrid, confusing, angry…
If it were more like Thanksgiving, we’d like it better, too religious this holiday is, and not religious enough, ironic, gimme, gimme, gimme, uggh…
Please don’t drive intoxicated or under the influence of anything this holiday season, it’s not worth it, it’s not safe…
There’s too many alternatives to driving, take the risk out, enjoy more of your evening without worrying about risk…
…remove the drama, you’ll need a clear head…
We really hope you have a great new year, there’s a lot to think about with what’s going on around us, very concerning…
Which brings us back around to what we started, 5hVnz Song of the Month…
Very hard to choose even as we write, for a few reasons…
…Our conflicts…
So many songs made the list…but we finally separated appeal to relevance…
Rules of the blog, which is debatable due to our introduction on this blog…that one was easy, of course we can break the rules…
The third conflict was the style of music we decided to choose…a lot went into this question…
The final conflict, what message and in what tone do we want for the final som…which is what we are working on now…
…but we know, we just need convincing…
So, closing out the year we’ll have one song, that’s the rules, however 😁 we’ll need context…
So we’ve provided an example on its own, not to be associated or confused with 5hVnz som choice…
But we’ll get to that later, right now the audience wants to know why we chose the way we did, and really it comes down to one thing…
There really hasn’t been any good music in a long time, sure there’s some, but even the good songs are all about the rythm…
You find a style of music you like and you stick with it, a lot times you don’t even know the lyrics…
Other times you do know the lyrics, but because they’re about relatable, bloggable, fashionable trends…
This makes you a listener and that is the goal, to get people to listen, but anymore there’s nothing really worth listening to…
Until lately…AI has definitely got those synapses going, we truly believe in the power of music and it’s meaning…
That is why we feel the choice we made for the som was the best choice, not the anticipated choice, but without any doubts in our mind the absolute correct choice…
…but nuthings perfect…
So without any further adieu…
Time Goes By, Soul Grass, AI Version…
…
There used to be an old saying, is it live or is it memorex, it was a commercial about a cassette tape sounding as good as in person…
This is context, as we know, the remix of a song can be better than the original, but it can never replace the original…
The original gave life essentially, to the remix and as we know, after you think about things for awhile you generally see them differently…
That’s what we’d like to have you hear, original then AI remix…
We didn’t create these, we just found them and shared them with you…
DMX X Gon’ give it to ya, original…
DMX, X Gon’ give it to ya, (1950’s Acoustic Soul), AI remix…

This is the hook, if you liked the AI version, you’ve already approved it, that’s the first hurdle…
Now they got you, this is where you start listening to all these songs, but one thing will blend in and that’s the voice…
I’m sure they’ll create more voices, to give it that, “Artist appeal” feel, for the listener(s)…
A lot of these songs from whatever genre have the same gritty toned singer in all of them, and the genres have a way of blending into each other…
It starts out country then it changes to rythm and blues, then to soul, then jazz, then rap…
Some of the songs sounds like they put a sentence into ChatGPT and told it to rhyme as many things you can with it, and put it into a song, horrible, but funny…
…we did like this one song…
Definitely made the list, and had a lot messages in it, easy to listen too, but too much, need to focus…
We feel the choice we made was the right decision, for what we wanted to share, we hope you enjoyed it…
Long way to go for one Fkn song, right?!?!…and that’s a fact!
