@djjd62,
dj's been listening to some good hip hop.

I'm not too familiar with the Kelptones. I only know they're the ones who released a hip hop mashup of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.

@Gargamel,
they did a pretty cool mashup of queen and hip hop called A Night At The Hip Hopera, it's available for free download at their website

one stand out track is the mashup of ODB with Another One Bites the Dust, done about a year before his death

Listening to Phil Manzanera's 'Collection' and Nico came up, which made me think of Beavis & Butthead's conversation about Bjork.

Beavis: Is that Snoop Doggy Dog?
Butt-head: No, dumbass. That's a chick. She's got his haircut, though.
Beavis: She's a weirdo.
Butt-head: She's like one of those drama club teachers.
Beavis: They're always trying to get you to prance around like some kind of wussy.
Butt-head: Yeah, it's like they say: "Be a tree".
Beavis: "Now be a sad tree, now be a happy tree".
Butt-head: Man, this chick is out of her gourd.
Beavis: She's like completely whacked out.
Butt-head: I can't really blame her, because, like, some of these weird chicks makes tons of money.
Beavis: Really?
Butt-head: Yeah, it's not like they are going around saying: "We need a normal chick to dance on a truck."

(I'm having one of those 'bizarre synaptic jumps' days)

@hingehead,
I forgot how funny Beavis and Butthead could be.

@hingehead,
one of my favourite one hit wonders

i picked up a copy of Big Shiny Hits 90's in a used record store a few years back, it's amazing how many one hit wonders make up those compilations

@djjd62,
Yeah, I have big section of alt pop/rock cd singles from the 90s that are classics, things like 'The Way' by Fastball, 'In the meantime' by Spacehog, 'Home' by Skunkhour, 'Deeper water' by Deadstar, 'Drinking in LA by Bran Van 5000, 'Touched' by VAST, 'Sex and candy' Marcy Playground, 'Come on spring' Antenna, 'Road rage' Catatonia, 'Jimmie Rodgers' Fur, 'Goddess on a highway' Mercury Rev, 'Naughty boy' The Mavises, 'Devil's diary' The Caulfields, 'Jesse' Paw, 'Stamp' Hagfish, 'Born with a tail' Supersuckers, 'Screamager' Therapy?, 'Butterfly Wings' Machines of Loving Grace, 'Place your hands' Reef, 'Popular' Nada Surf et bloody cetera.

I've never know what to call that sort of music - it's not power pop but it is slickly produced, post-modernist in lyrical content, and it's got a good beat you can dance to. In a lot of ways I'm more fond of the 90s than the 80s.
