re: artists "messing up the lyrics"

   Most artists do not strictly go by either the lyrics or the "sheet
music" for a song. The ability to improvise is highly desireable in any
performing art.
   Machines can play back verbatim. Machines are dull to watch. People have
the ability to go beyond the conventional and improve upon what has been
done before. That is where true art/music separates from technology.
