I personally believe that the muse is significantly different, but arranging the emotion around musical notes and rhythms is for the writer deeply personal and though influences are all around us, pure originality and authenticity are a tenuous balance by the time an artist is deeply within their stories.

anyhow deeply redundant...lol

Sounds so everyday these days. In the comments, someone compared them to Pink Floyd. I'm sure Mr. Smith would recoil at that.

Good day, I just wonder how songs are chosen . I hear songs of (not so wellknown) french and dutch groupes but e.g. I'm not able to find any music of the Alan Parson project.  Thank you for an answer

The "Music Search" function on the menu shows 6 Alan Parsons selections. They cycle through every once in awhile.  Songs are chosen by the genius of William's artistic programming.
