      So because you reminded that Clown Core exists, I caught up with their recent discography on my phone with headphones. However, about five minutes ago the audio from computers on my phone “suddenly cut out”. I think my mom started up her car, and because I connected the Bluetooth to the car at some point in the future past, the phone instantly decided “yeah let’s pump the user’s audio into this device, I’m sure that’s what he wants”, even though headphones were plugged in, without prompting me 😳.

      I.e., I think my mom got a few seconds of surprise Clown Core.

      She knows I like metal but I don’t know how to explain this 🤣.

    Nothing recent, but way back, I was embarrassed that it was called girl anachronism and all about being a girl because I was still a wee lad trying to assert his manliness. “Just a girl” by no doubt, same reason.

    Actually, coin-operated boy was a pretty close second

      Dude, they’re the best! The beats, the weirdly awesome announcer voice, the music videos with way too much production budget somehow, and (mostly) historically accurate raps!

      But yes, most people I want to show them to would immediately shut it off and shout “language!” Like Captain America.

    Vitas has a phenomenal vocal range.

    Catchy tunes and a variety of styles. But this video, as catchy as the tune is, is just… bonkers. The outfit is … something, the technique he uses while singing is … yeah. It’s that weird.

    And this one I’m not ashamed to share… and is the one that brought him to my attention (especially when it gets to the hook) years back when it was making the rounds.

        It’s a shame Vitas kinda seems embarrassed by it. There’s a video where he performed it a few years ago, and he’s really low energy about it, lip syncing to a recording of it.

        I supposed he’s more into the traditional ballads he sings.

      I fucking love me some Vitas.

      It’s a shame he kinda gets memed on because of the goofiness of 7th element. The song itself is great with a catchy, kinda relaxing tune. But the stage performance is pretty interesting too. The costumes and the puppet like motions of the background dancers is really wild.

    Released literally this week: On-lyne “Party of your lifetime”. It’s from an upcoming update for a game called Warframe, and it’s basically distilled 90s boyband earworm. It’s like Backstreet Boys and N Sync had a bunch of boy babies, fed them crack and taught them to sing. And for some reason I unironically LOVE it - I’ve been listening to it on repeat for hours, I need help :P

        Thing is, I want really a fan of boybands back then, so I have no idea why it hit me so hard now - I didn’t hate them, but I preferred other things. This song though, welp, hook, line and sinker. I even love the silly wink-wink-nodge-nudge lines like “boys are in sync” - I’m literally listening to the song as I write this, but the way :D
