Wait, Regina Spektor made the soundtrack for Kubo? One of the best animated movies by the way!

This song has been revived a few times (by k-pop stars and TikTok memes), but Voyage of the Rock Aliens deserves a separate note.

Jermaine Jackson was married to a daughter of Motown record label owner. Other Jacksons left but he couldn't — he chose a wife over siblings. And so he desperately needed money.

Pia married an old producer and eventually became the only person winning Golden Globe for the best acting and Golden Raspberry for the worst acting (in the same movie). Her husband tried to push her career into a new direction and so we got both this song and the Rock Aliens musical.

Such a wannabe kind of thing 🌚 But I still adore the song!

Have a nice weekend, folks!

UPD: That was originally a James Vincent McMorrow music video that was later re-used with a completely different (though more suitable) song by Pink Floyd. PF removed the original mix from YouTube many times, but some smaller channels still have it.

YouTube is getting worse and worse

- They can detect 3 seconds of music
- They can't detect scammers in his comments
- So, let's remove 13.8m subs channel!

Hard times, folks: apparently Free Public Domain music project is down now...

You can get what's left of it from Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20251208013136/https://freepd.com/downloads/

Tom's Diner is the song used to calibrate MP3. Not a certain MP3, the whole file format was tuned by Karlheinz Brandenburg to prevent loss of any audible details from the original acapella:

Bulgaria, where I live for over a decade, just won Eurovision. The contest isn't bothering me for ages but it's good to see such an achievement from our folks.

- Israel landed second
- UK is the last (LOL)

The song is absolutely not my kind of music. The last time I liked the sound of the contest was Lordi 😏

Good night, folks!
