Some new holiday prog.
First is Marillion's cover of "I Believe in Father Christmas" by Greg Lake. I wonder if this song is more well-known these days than "Lucky Man". It has transcended the "classic rock" tag, I think.
Lovely version here by the Marillos.
Also, we have Steve Wilson's first Christmas song that features lyrics written by AI:
Challenged by a friend last week on why I’d never done a Christmas song, I protested it wasn't really me, and besides I didn’t think I had it in me to write suitably Christmassy lyrics. "No problem”, he said, "we’ll get ChatGPT to do it for you!", upon which he instructed the AI to generate Christmas lyrics in the style of Steven Wilson. Which it proceeded to do so. By the yard, in fact, I was shocked at how instantaneous and easy it was to guide it ("don’t actually mention Christmas" we said to it, "make it feel more lonely”…etc)
I think it did a good SW impression. "Make it feel cold and lonely" - ha!
