My recommendation is this song by Russian avant-garde pop group Kolibri from the early '90s. I would write out the transliteration of the song title, but your head would explode before you even began to imagine how it is pronounced. Just kidding, it is called Nye Ryadom (roll that "R", I know you can do it Jason!) Like Kate Bush and Bjork, I feel they are al connected by some light theatrical elements inherent in the music, though the singers in Kolibri are admittedly much less talented vocalists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alswjh_0498

I have a Masters Of The Universe 45 that played along to a kids book. Also, "The Heart-Warming Tenderness Of Jim Nabors".

I grew up across the bridge from where they started. To think I could have seen those basement shows.
One of my favorites from them. I was glad they played it when I saw them at the Triple Rock in Minneapolis – the only show I caught there before they shut down in 2017
What's the strangest record/CD/album in your collection? Not necessarily the rarest, just the weirdest piece of recorded sound you own.
In the spirit of the new name, what is a really memorable crossfades? Are crossfades meant to be invisible or to be celebrated? Song: With A Little Help from My Friends by The Beatles
Since high school I’ve loved listening to live versions of video game orchestral music. It started with the “greatest video game music” albums but has since slid over to the 8-Bit Big Band. I like how they’re able to make each rendition their own and keep it fresh. What do you think is one commonality that makes (specifically) live-centric bands stand out and what is your favorite live performance of any video-game based piece or song? Thanks gang!

Hey there crossfaders, Remember bars? Well let's pretend we're in one having a good time feeling nice. Now, you walk up the the Jukebox, what song you playing to get the whole place jamming out with you? My friends and I would always play Bohemian Rhapsody and had the other patrons sing along.

On the topic of bjork, I loved her collaboration with the dirty projectors. Both of these songs are good in their own way so please choose 1 :) https://open.spotify.com/track/3e2M3Idk1YxmDvtvvRzReK?si=zImVhmuxTjaOzziTWU4YfQ https://open.spotify.com/track/6pn7hljG8QY8aSvfjdyu7I?si=5NxcPY7qT-aDexSzd_7HuA
