Hello Beehaw. It's a beautiful Saturday morning. If your Saturday morning isn't beautiful yet, bring some beauty to your ears with our jazzy version of Rihanna's "Umbrella". Dan's voice is like butter on this one, and yes that's also him on his acoustic guitar. So much Dan: So much love.
We hope this brings you a smile.

Bob Jones called this out MONTHS ago. I guess now we know why the right wing keeps screaming for CBC to be de-funded.

they seemed to be leaking in from one particular instance I was subbed to. I unsubbed from that instance before coffee this morning and now I can't even remember which one it was, so I'm seeing fewer of them, at least.

I thought the mood was that everything should be monopolized by the super rich.

I keep waiting for Amazon to start generating AI-driven online profiles spouting Ai-driven selling points for AI-generated media.
It's the AI version of "Flood the zone with shit" except the entire internet is The Zone.

what's this? an anti-corporate message that sneers at cable TV companies??? CANCEL THAT SHOW!!!

that show was so amazingly prescient: the theme of the first episode was how advertising literally kills its viewers and the news covers things up. No wonder they didn't get renewed. ;)

Hello Beehaw! We reimagined the classic pop song by The Cure with gentle acoustic instrumentation, and wrapped the whole thing in a velvety cup of warm cocoa. Please listen and enjoy.

My band makes covers of pop songs in a vaguely Leonard Cohen style. It was a fun idea we first had back in 2007 or so. We are The Three Leonards. Results are... unpredictable at best - as they should (kbin.social)

Died In Your Arms (Tonight) - The Three Leonards [OC] (www.youtube.com)
 

Here's a question you don't hear often: what if Leonard Cohen had performed a cover of (I Just) Died In Your Arms (Tonight) in the 1980's? What would it sound like? Would it have a bunch of parentheses in the title? These are questions that do not have to remain unanswered.

Believe me: you haven't heard anything quite like this before.
