Good Wednesday morning friend... Let's take a look at the meaning of the song. Bitter Sweet Symphony (Extended Version) by The Verve... (Enjoy the song as well as the read)...  “Bitter Sweet Symphony” which The Verve’s lead singer, Richard Ashcroft, is referring to is life itself.  He considers the whole experience to be “bittersweet” because he perceives it as one where you ceaselessly toil to make “ends meet” only to die in the end. Moreover, the singer feels that he is cast in a framework that has relegated him to a life of “sex and violence, melody and silence”. So this combined with his reluctance to the idea of being “a slave to money” has caused Ashcroft to take an ideological stance against the system. However, turning this belief into concrete action is what truly lies at the center of the singer’s dilemma.  This finds him stuck in a state of mental flux where he believes he “can change”.  Yet being “herein (his) mold” is preventing him from doing so. And on a macrocosmic level, he sees “a million different people” going through the same conflict he is experiencing.  So in conclusion, this is a track in which the singer has decided that life is “bittersweet” since it is highlighted by toil leading to eventual death. And while he finds himself on the same course, he has no desire to share in such a fate. Owing to this, he has decided to “change”. However, actually changing seems impossible as he is stuck in his “mold”. “‘Cause it’s a bittersweet symphony, that’s life Tryna make ends meet, tryna find somebody then you die I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah”  Bittersweet copyright disputes between Ashcroft and The Rolling Stones:  The success of this track has proven to be a bittersweet experience for The Verve (especially Richard Ashcroft). Although it is hands down their signature song, all of the songwriting royalties went to The Rolling Stones due to a six-second sample The Verve used from a Stones’ track entitled “The Last Time” (1965). The rendition they used for the sample was an instrumental cover of the original by The Andrew Oldham Orchestra, from a 1966 album of theirs entitled The Rolling Stone Songbook. However, while they obtained permission from the owner of the cover, the executives behind the publication of “Bitter Sweet Symphony” did not do so with the original owners. By this, Ashcroft (who wrote the song) was forced to give up all the royalties generated from the song. All royalties to the song therefore went to The Rolling Stones’ Keith Richards and Mick Jagger (who wrote “The Last Time”). In April 2019, Jagger and Richards ended the copyright dispute when they granted Ashcroft access to future royalties from “Bitter Sweet Symphony”. Ashcroft himself announced this during his appearance at 2019’s Ivor Novello Awards.

Good Wednesday morning friend... Today we are going to know what is so weird but true about the great state of   Yes!!! Oregon it is... (Enjoy the read) 1). Oregon is the 27th most populous and the 9th most extensive of the 50 states of the United States. It lies in the Pacific Northwest region on the West Coast of the United States. The state attained statehood on February 14, 1859, becoming the 33rd state to join the union. Its four bordering states are Nevada, Washington, California, and Idaho. Oregon (nicknamed: “Beaver State”) has 36 counties. The state’s capital is Salem. The abbreviation for Oregon is OR. 2). The origin of the name “Oregon” is uncertain. However, according to one account, the name is believed to have been derived from the French word, ‘Ouragan,’ loosely translated as hurricane’ or windstorm’. This was about the powerful winds originating from the Columbia River hence the name Oregon. 3). The state has 11 lighthouses, and Yaquina is the tallest standing at 93 feet. The tallest lighthouse is the most popular on the coast and has been in service since 1873. 4). Powell’s Bookstore in Portland, Oregon, is the world’s largest bookstore. The store has been in service in Portland since 1971. The company’s founder started his book-selling career with a loan of $3,000, which he repaid within two months of borrowing the money. 5). The mention of the deepest gorge in Oregon should give you a clear picture of a 7,900-foot Hell’s Canyon. This magnificent and picturesque physical feature is located between Idaho and Oregon along the Snake River. 6). Did you know that the world’s smallest park – Mill Ends Park – is in Portland, Oregon? Surprisingly, the park is just two square feet in area. Now imagine how one could fit a park in that little area. Here is a picture to clarify all your doubts. The park lies in the median of the heavily trafficked Naito Parkway. It was granted this recognition in 1971 by The Guinness Book of Records. The park was built because of a supposed leprechaun sighting. A journalist named **ahem** **ahem**an ran a column called Mill Ends. He claimed (in jest, of course) that he saw a leprechaun digging a hole that was supposed to be used for erecting a light pole. In truth, **ahem**an saw the space and began planting flowers on the spot. In 1948, on Patrick’s Day, the park was dedicated by **ahem**an himself. The journalist also wrote about a leprechaun colony living in the park headed by one named Patrick O’Toole. 7). Crater Lake is a notable physical feature that makes Oregon a unique state in the entire country. Crater Lake is the deepest (592 meters) among the lakes in the U.S. and one of the deepest in the world. The most intriguing part of its history is that it was formed as a volcanic lake thousands of years ago. Its scenic crystal-blue waters are well-known by every traveler worldwide. You could stack the Eiffel Tower, Washington Monument, and Statue of Liberty on top of each other and still have 100 feet of water covering Lady Liberty’s torch. That is how deep the lake is. 8). You are not allowed to box with a kangaroo in Myrtle Creek. No type of boxing is permitted, not even kickboxing, so put your boxing gloves away! 9). It is a well-known fact that the famous Hollywood star of all time, Clint Eastwood lived in Springfield, Oregon. He worked at Weyerhaeuser for a few weeks as a lumberjack before realizing that lumberjacking was a dangerous business venture.  10). In Portland, pinball machines have been completely banned since 1949 when Dorothy McCullough was the mayor. 11). Salem is the capital of Oregon. Originally, it was called Chemeketa by the Kalapuya Indians – a term that means “place of rest” or “place of peace”. The name was later changed to Salem, which is close to the Hebrew term “shalom” or peace. As the state capital, Salem did, indeed, become a meeting place for residents of Oregon. 12).  Oregon City marks the final stop for the wagons that traversed the Oregon Trail. The historic trail began in Independence, Missouri, and ended in this city. Today, there is an Interpretive Center in the city that offers tourists an interactive display of what life was like then as a pioneer. 13).  Astoria was named after John Jacob Astor, who established the city in 1810. The city is a favorite setting for Hollywood films, a relationship that began with the 1908 movie The Fisherman’s Bride. Beloved classics Short Circuit, Free Willy, Free Willy II, The Ring Two, and Into the Wild were also filmed here.    Have a blessed day... Take care and GOD bless...   ... View more

I see from searching hundreds of people posting with similar issues dating back years. I have various Alexa echos and echo dots throughout my house that I use to play music daily. Suddenly, in the last week, it won’t play or find almost any song or station with a voice command. I’ve also lost the ability to search specific songs through the Alexa app to play them. If I search artist and song, it only shows artists options. It USED to be (last week and before) that I’d have a 50/50 shot of searching in the Alexa app for a specific song, getting it, playing it and a station would follow. For the 50% where I couldn’t find it, I could go to the Pandora app, search it, play it, pause after a few seconds and force close Pandora app then switch back to Alexa and refresh to show the song/station I manually searched for. This no longer works either.  ... View more
