Public Enemy - Don’t Believe the Hype Taut, confrontational and funky as all hell; a critique of false media, highlighting the importance of critical thinking. A song as relevant today as it was in ‘88; and a message still to be learned from.

[MESSAGE FROM THE CLERGY] We wish to inform you that a decade ago, Meliora opened the gates to a new age of Ghost. An album whose message is as relevant today as it was in 2015 and earned Ghost their first GRAMMY and #1 at Rock Radio. Ten years of hymns that still linger in the dark, of faith, reflection, and the pursuit of something greater. Thank you for ten years of devotion. In Ghost we trust.

“I know it was hard to defend me as your favorite artist, or as an artist you admire, because I was quiet for a long time. But we back, baby. We in motion! Don’t believe the hype.

The Peanuts Movie was basically made as the swan song for Peanuts as a franchise and to celebrate Charles Schulz as a whole. It was the last major project before WildBrain/Sony Music Japan got joint ownership of the franchise, and all the new stuff gets sent to Apple TV+ hell.

Lizzo said what I’ve been trying to say for a long time. Artists of today can’t be as famous as artists from the 90s and early to mid-20s, like Beyoncé, Whitney, Celine etc. Your album could sell 20k and a single chart at #90 and a larger percentage of the world would know it. Now you can sell 5 million in a week, and the number of people who will know it won’t be as many as it was then. A song could have 10 billion streams on Spotify and you would see people who have never heard it. The streaming era has totally fragmented the market that even the most famous and successful artists of today are still not as famous as even the least famous and successful ones from back then.

Oh, the irony. Mottola didn't want Michael's favorite song "All The Lost Children" to make the album because he claimed it would only serve as a reminder of the false accusations. Well, today we know that Mottola’s name appears thousands of times in the E*stein files, whereas Michael was as innocent as a lamb.

Lets say this video and the others like it are accurate, as was his questioning of the very legitimacy of Oct 7th, as was his refusing a massive amount of funding from (and having bad blood with) Netanyahu, as was his being increasingly critical of Israel in general - what happens if Charlie continued down this path, and began to lead a massive number of Christian rightist youth down a path of criticizing and asking difficult questions about Israel? Israel's last remaining support base in America would be wholly jeopardized.. and the broader fallout that'd follow from here should be obvious to all. Atop it all, Charlie mentioned his fears of Israel publicly - and apparently privately, as well, to more than one source. People can take in all of this, and still proclaim with supreme confidence that Israel or Netanyahu had 'no motive whatsoever', and brazenly mock those who believe otherwise?

As LeBron James weighed a decision, he spent a chunk of the offseason around Akron. It felt like a prelude to a return to the #Cavs—but as we learned today...not the case. Still, in his statement announcing the 76ers as his landing spot, said Northeast Ohio will always be home.

It was my honor today to present a Palestinian Kufiyeh to her excellency Dr. Naledi Pandor, the South African minister of International relations, to express our love and gratitude as Palestinians to the people of South Africa. It was a symbolic gift and act from us as a token of love, unity and solidarity. It is symbolic, to take the kufiyeh from a shoulder of a Palestinian and place it on the shoulder of a South African leader, and acknowledge that today South Africans carries our cross as Palestinians with us upon their shoulders.

The broad smiles on stage and the resounding applause from the audience in Rome said it all: the magic of Placido Domingo is as strong as ever. He and acclaimed soprano Pretty Yende won all hearts at Auditorium della Conciliazione in a sold-out concert of arias by Giordano, Verdi and Gounod, as well as zarzuela romanzas and Broadway. A Neapolitan song is hard to resist and the public willingly obliged as the Spanish singer prompted them to join in. Bravi tutti! (Video courtesy of Heidrun Haag )

From 1945 to 1965, the 25-pounder was the standard gun of the Dutch light field artillery. The gun’s name refers to the weight of it shells. Because of its caliber and its role as a field gun, it was also known as the "9-veld". It is still in use as a ceremonial salute gun.

'That Was a Lie!': There Was Never a Scientific Consensus On Lockdowns, Masks, or the Vaccine Dr. Jay Bhattacharya: "What happened was a relatively small group, a cartel almost, of very powerful scientific bureaucrats took over the whole apparatus of science — at least as far as the public eye is concerned — dominated the media, dominated the message to politicians, and as a result, we had a catastrophic response to COVID. And we're going to be paying the costs of that for a very long time."

"The Sound of Silence" is an iconic folk-rock song by the American duo Simon & Garfunkel. It was written by Paul Simon and released as a single in 1965. The song's haunting melody and evocative lyrics made it a timeless classic that continues to resonate with audiences across generations. The genesis of "The Sound of Silence" can be traced back to Paul Simon's early days as a songwriter in the early 1960s. He wrote the original version of the song when he was just 21 years old and it was initially titled "The Sounds of Silence." The song was included in their debut album, "Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M," released in 1964. However, the album had limited success, and Simon & Garfunkel's future as a duo was uncertain. Despite the lackluster performance of their debut album, the song's potential caught the attention of Tom Wilson, a producer at Columbia Records. Without Simon or Garfunkel's knowledge, he decided to remix "The Sound of Silence," adding electric instruments and drums to the acoustic version. This new version gave the song a more contemporary and dynamic sound, capitalizing on the folk-rock movement that was gaining popularity at the time. In January 1966, the remixed version of "The Sound of Silence" was released as a single, and it quickly began to climb the charts. The song struck a chord with listeners, as its lyrics tapped into feelings of isolation, alienation, and the struggle to communicate in an increasingly disconnected world. The opening lines, "Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again," instantly captured the imaginations of listeners and set the tone for the rest of the song. As "The Sound of Silence" gained traction, Simon & Garfunkel's popularity surged, and they went on to release more successful albums, becoming one of the most influential and celebrated musical acts of the 1960s. The song's success also played a significant role in propelling the folk-rock genre into the mainstream. Over the years, "The Sound of Silence" has been covered by numerous artists, further cementing its status as a timeless classic. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke deep emotions and contemplation, making it relevant in different historical and cultural contexts. The song's legacy has been immortalized in popular culture, appearing in films, television shows, and advertisements, further solidifying its status as a song that transcends time and resonates with people from all walks of life. Its powerful message about the importance of meaningful communication in a world filled with noise and distraction continues to be relevant and poignant to this day.
