Re: Next Single

I’ve found Bing atrocious doing basic searches, if Bing CoPilot is AI then I’d be very sceptical. Would they release something on the same day as the album? and don’t singles, even in this day and age, be released on a different day as albums.

Re: Piano Room Month - 2024

Also the wording makes it sound like they’ve done their version based on a over of the original. Although what constitutes the original, Mott the Hoople or the version released by the songwriter himself?
