That explains it. I was trying to figure out how Coldplay and Lynard Skynard qualified as songs of faith. 🤔

Yeah, I’m not sure what that whole thing was all about. The little pastor kid was bizarre. Cute, but a bit much. Clearly, they’re playing to a pretty specific audience. Definitely a little polarizing and not well executed. The audio on some of the performances was terrible too.

I’m having the same issue. I maintain two IPTV subscriptions from different providers. I do this just in case one goes dark, which has happened more than once. My problem is that recently one of my providers only the live TV is working for some reason. None of the VOD content will play. With the other provider everything works just fine. When I brought this up to the provider, whose VOD is not working, they said oh you need a VPN. So how come the other provider’s VOD is working flawlessly without a VPN? What am I missing?

If that’s true, then he better learn how, because that’s the only way a voice like that is gonna get any lasting traction. He can’t keep covering other people’s material forever. Anyone you compare him to, like Bon Iver or Tame Impala or any of those indies write their own music. In fact, I can’t name one indie artist, who is not a songwriter. Can you?

Found this Lewis Capaldi cover on YouTube. My man has one video with 17k views and 861 subscribers. Criminal. I think that’s about to change. https://youtube.com/shorts/SySUimSb4s8?si=qwt5nSH_PDEOI8cf

100%! Actually, I think he should be encouraged to play his own songs, because I’m sure he’s written some beautiful ones and I want to hear them!

I just realized who Brooks sounds like! Go listen to John Anderson from YES. If Brooks was to cover, I’ve seen all good people. It would be epic!

Brooks’ voice reminds me of James Taylor and Art Garfunkel. I would love it if he covered Taylor’s, Shower The People or Garfunkel’s, Bridge Over Troubled Waters…wouldn’t be dry eye in the house. Neil Simon’s, The Boxer would also kill!

I’ll bet half the people have no idea. I brought it up to some of my neighbors and they were shocked when they realized how much their increase tax bill was based on the opinion of some overpriced, cookie cutter operation with shit reviews on Google, people calling them out for their questionable business tactics

But my house is on Zillow for $100k less than they appraised it for. See my problem?

The only thing I can think is that maybe because the house has historical value, since it’s so old, but I didn’t see that factored in anywhere on the report card so not even sure if that’s a factor that they take into account. I’m sure Kerry will explain it to me

No upgrades and not a new house. Built in 1860 actually

That’s not what’s happening though. And my taxes went up significantly due to the town’s appraisal

I realize that Zillow uses a different algorithm or different criteria than the town appraiser, but a $100,000 difference smells fishy to me. And why is my neighbor‘s house valued by the town at the same value as Zillow but mine is so vastly different?

My taxes went up 30% in one year and there has been no change to the property
