"A.I you and I in our Heyday" original song 
© copyright Ben Manning 2024 

This song is the story of a man who has an artificial intelligence best friend and in some ways a doppelganger.   The A.I robot  malfunctions after the man goes schizophrenic causing the AI to also become schizophrenic because of a techie glitch and so they both retreat into a world of their own collective youth. A heavenly Heyday of perpetual youth and being forever young.  When it's all a lie made of madness...

Mr Hugh original song produced version

This is the first insight into an idea for a song that I've been putting together called" Its Betty and the ladybugs band! " possibly a title track for an LP record!
(..the - "it's/ band! " in the title is to stop it from being too similar in title to Betty Bowie ( your the one for me)  

This is an improvised one-take live recording I did at home which was made up on the spot so expect some mistakes. however, I quite like it. I intend to re-record it many times with a view to a better version, but until then this demo at least gives you a rough idea 

It is based on a dream about my dear dog Betty who Ascended to Spirit recently. the painting for my proposed  album cover dates from August  2024
