Those Who Liked Your Song

April 21: One other thing I should ask about Mike Myers and Austin Powers, now that I recall the period of September 2007 so vividly from rewriting the last five comedy scripts here. When Myers first appeared on TV to promote Austin Powers earlier that year, I'd not yet recorded my first post of Redemption, nor had I developed the faceless, card carrying cartoon character, whose scripts provided some of the humor that ended up in the film. If I recall correctly, I'd been led to believe that Myers had been incarcerated as I produced these works, probably for other violations of my music and scripts, such as Seal of Doom, which parodies Orcastra. So, did Myers delay the release of Austin Powers until I'd inadvertently released him from incarceration by erasing my blogs in October or November? And then did he add material from my posts which had accumulated while he was in jail with all his star friends and the networks stayed quiet about it? That's what it looks like to me now. Horrible. And, you know, I just finished reading a newspaper clipping from 1864 about slavery. It certainly looks to be full of shit now, but a lot of people believed what they read in newspapers at the time. I hope it doesn't take a hundred years for people to reach the same conclusions about the headlines of November 2007 in this instance. [End of insertion.] I want to pick up from my last post in 2018 Song Posts. I was discussing the importance of thinking. Like everyone else, I'd rather not have to think about all this unpleasantness. In order to do that, I must think of some way that I can accept it all and move on. This is much easier for others, who can dismiss my affairs as being less important than their own, but it is impossible for me. It is impossible because I know I am innocent and that I did not deserve what happened to me. It should never have happened. But my brain still struggles to find some way to justify it so I can have peace. Did anyone check the soundtracks on the other SNL stars' films? I'd be wondering about them now. And I think a lot of those propaganda clips from the last five shows were plagiarized by the same gang on TV again. It's taking forever to catch up with their crime. I can't help but think of how YouTube used to tell me about people who liked my songs. They'd say, those who liked your song also favored Oasis, Nickleback, Blue Rodeo, etc. But that was when they were still my songs. So, I was wondering about those who liked Austin Powers. Did they also like Mean Girls? And they also like Blue Rodeo? And did those who liked Ellen also like Beyonce? And did those who liked the Simpsons also like the Crystalids and the Shards? And did those who liked Saturday Night Live also like MAD Magazine and MAD TV? And did those who liked George Carlin also like Nickleback (some of their songs)? And did those who watched Jon Stewart also watch Family Guy? And did those who listened to CBC AM also watch Comedy Central? And did they all make enough money? Did they make enough millions and millions of dollars with my hard work for five to ten years while they hung me with the image of a fraud? That's what I got for thinking about it this morning. Better than average.
