      @@squalloogal I disagree. For certain pianists recreating that by ear is actually pretty easy.
      I'm not one of them, but in my band and amongst my friends I know others like John that can just hear a tune, process it, and recreate it almost flawlessly.
      The fact that the tune he made wasn't exactly note for note with exact precision perfect. But encapsulated perfectly the sound in that short time, makes me believe he's just a very good musician and can play-it-by-ear that well.
      It's a talent I wish I had.

      Quite clear why: He is unelectable because he calls himself a socialist thereby scaring off too many Americans.

      @ndisfoshiz From what I've heard, they weren't trying to help so much as they realized they couldn't hold back the crowd and tried to fall back in an organized fashion. Not that they should have ever needed to fall back in the first place though. The leadership either dropped the ball or maliciously undermined Capitol security. And the latter seems more likely when you consider that at least one congressman (a Republican retired marine iirc) was briefed on the Capitol security plans the night before and what was actually enacted the day of the insurrection wasn't anywhere near close to what was supposed to happen.

      Those of you who are not constantly fighting the fundamentalist terrorist groups in your countries are very lucky. Yes the fundamentalist christian churches are terrorist groups. IDC who gets mad about that. It's just fact. We have many good churches in the USA. They're not all control freaks, but the organized religions, the catholic church, the southern Baptist Church, the apostolic church, the whole evil corrupted bunch of them know that they're losing more and more control every year and have apparently decided to start executing anyone within the USA who tries to educate the people. They've been doing it to other countries forever. Separation of church and state is a fkn joke. We're trying but there's so damn many of them and they have so many people brainwashed so completely. Ugh. We're inching along though.

The bones are no longer strong enough to carry the abundance of hate and anger that run rampant throughout. Thank you, Stephen and Bernie, for being two fine gentlemen. I continue to have hope because of people like you.

      You are still very young my dear... a bit older than the young ones in my family, and I hope for your sake and for all your generation that Humanity and Decency and Honesty and Integrity and Compassion form the pillars of the society you have to live in... it is in the hands of you young to recognise evil for what it is and to reject it. God bless 😊👼🏼💞

    It wasn't a riot: it was an attempted revolution. That's literally what some of the insurgents said outside when interviewed on tv.

    The best president America never had. Such a waste.

      So True. But at least we have him in the Senate. We owe it to Bernie to fight for his beliefs in the future.

      @Andrea MENDENHALL It's a good thing that Bernie isn't advocating for larceny then.

    This might seem trivial considering the subject matter of the interview, but shout out to Jon Batiste and the band for that killer arrangement of "Because the Night" for the opening sting. Absolute banger! I'd love to hear you guys do the full song.

    I laughed way too much for "blondeguys in sweaters." Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis

    Soon may the Wellerman come

    One day, when the tonguin' is done
    We'll take our leave and go!
