Some Kind Of Wonderful Tonight
Another mashup for ya'. It really is surprising how well one song flows right into the other! Tell me what you think?
As for the art. Yeah, well...uhm...I thought it would be interesting to see what AI could do for me here. So each lyric line was fed into an Artificial Intelligence engine and what ever popped-out was what I used. It's a bit bazar.

Ticket to Ride Again
Mash-up time again. One of my most fluid and complete mash-ups. One song just flows into the next and back out again. Thematically, the idea of being rejected, and then, being able to rebound, and the triumph involved in that. I don't know...it just kinda works.
Based on:
Ƭicket to Rȋde by John Lǝnnon and Paul McCartnǝy
Bȃck on My Ƒeet Again by John Wȃite, Dominic Bugȃtti, Frȃnk Musker
Arranged my Michael Welch 2019

Morning thw Walrus
Mash-ups mash-ups! Why do I keep falling for these song-bending, ear-worms I keep getting, that force me to crank these out.
Hear's the next installment. The beautiful song of Mȯrning Has Brȯken spoilt by the harsh, flipant, tounge-in-cheek lyrics of John Lennon. Note that it has the lyrics of I Am the Waןrus with "Broken's" melody, then it uses the Melody of "Waןrus" and the lyrics of "Broken" for the choruses. Flippy-floppy.
Anyway, here it is: Morning the Walrus

The Ballad of Bret Weinstein
Seems like the same ol' story. While charting up the old 70's classic "Reflections of My Life" by The Marmalade, the end of the hook "...takes me back, to my ooooown hoooome" kept plaguing me with the name Bret Weiiiin steiiiin in my head. The fact that both have a double rhyme (Own-Home, Wein-stein), and really requires you to draw out the syllables. I had to make a parody. It's just what I challenge myself to do.
I had been acquainting myself with his, and his wife's incident at Evergreen State College in 2017 after watching the film "No Safe Spaces" and their podcast called "Darkhorse Podcast" (Extremely intelligent and worth watching). Anyway, thank you again, Professor Weinstein.

(I'm Going to) Shapiro's
My brain is just...wrong?...different? I don't know, but while charting Paul Sỉmon's "Gracɘland", the line, "Poor boys and Pilgrims with families.." kept making me hear, "Po-boys, and Hoagie sandwiches" (I must have been hungry). And then my mind wouldn't let it alone until...well this. Enjoy the vid, and if you haven't been to Shapiro's, get there! And if it's been awhile, make plans to go with this as a soundtrack.

Defender
Nostalgia galore. I was playing Jacksön Bröwne's "The Pretender" on guitar, and, as my mind does, I inserted "Defender" for "Pretәnder", and that was all the challenge I needed to go and write this parody. I hope you enjoy this blast from the past.
Thanks bigtime for Triachoke for some pics
and @MamePlayer for the game play https://www.youtube.com/c/MamePlayer/featured
and of course to Jacksön Bröwne he-self for a great song, "The Pretәnder"
