You have to pay to watch that though, right?

no. You only need to pay the pre order (CD, Vinyl or Cassette). If you want, of course

That's a pretty dire attempt to rewrite Photograph.

I couldn't get it to play yesterday - today it's working!

Exactly... i don't  understand the reason that Ringo released two EP's in a pandemic  ('Zoom In' in 2021 and 'Change the World' also in 2021) instead of an album.

Does he want to sell more or stay in the top positions more often?

Who knows? He said he likes EPs. He recorded Zoom In in 2020 and it was released in Mar. 2021. Now this new one will be released Sept. 24, 2021. I don't think he cares about sales or being in the top position. He just had 5 songs and decided to release them last March. Now he's got 4 songs on the new one.

God bless him.  He tries time and time again and they sink without a trace!

As Paul would say "Who cares?" Sorry, couldn't resist!

I totally agree with you!

"Change the World" is a pretty generic Ringo record, not one of his more memorable tracks. And does anyone else think it's time for him to follow Paul's example and stop dying his hair? At 81, the uniformly deep brown is starting to look silly.

I assume you meant to write dyeing, but I don't think he looks silly. He looks damn fine for 81 and he can do whatever he wants in my book.

Yes, I do not believe Ringo's hair is in the process of becoming deceased.   But I do think the color has  ceased to be flattering.

Yeah, he likes them so much he released - wait, let me count - exactly zero EPs in the first fifty years of his solo career

I agree with you Bruce.

On the new EP Ringo covers Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock" and it's a hoot:
