New Danny Elfman song - Happy
Appropriately creepy for Halloween
(video has some flashing lights)

“I originally wrote ‘Happy’ to perform at Coachella 2020,” he said of that pandemic-thwarted festival gig. “It was written to be an absurd anti-pop song, designed to begin as a very simple pop tune that degrades into something more subversive. The cynical nature of the lyrics echo how I feel about living in a semi-dystopian world turned upside down.”

It kind blows my mind that there is greater passage of time between now and this DT album than between the time ‘distance’ between Pink Floyd’s Wall and this album

It’s not the same raw Wakeman/Bruford iteration of Yes, but this one is nicely polished and still has that same great Chris Squire rhythm and Anderson virtuosity

Can hear some more of that Squire songwriting here:

For sure. My mom had this on repeat (all of 90125, actually) when it came out back in the day. I was eight at the time, really dug the album, made a tape copy and was probably the only kid banging Yes on his boombox (followed by New Edition, UTFO, then Beatles and probably Gary Numan.)

I was weird “unique” as a kid lol.

Edit: Realized I still do the same today, though a bit lighter on the New Edition … and sans boom box.

So uh… this is embarrassing.

I used to clown on kpop all the time because of how annoying kpop stans on twitter. And they are, but I actually listened to some, and… I actually like some of it. Not really a fan of BTS, but I stumbled on this one group called GOT7 and I love how their songs sound. Don’t understand them but they sound much better than most of the modern pop crap they play on the radio. Still not my favorite genre of music in general, but compared to most other modern pop it’s my favorite.

You can critique the idol industry all you want, and a lot of it is deserved, but you can’t deny the amount of work that went in to a MV like that.

A lot of Doom and Stoner metal. Mostly because there is something about good guitar and bass riffs coming out of tube amps with a thick layer of fuzz.

Nah! Nothing embarrassing at all. I think one of the coolest things about music is that you can explore genres you never, ever have before, and more often than not, come away with something you like or love. Maybe you fall in love with the genre, maybe not, but the tunes you end up enjoying are like little gems in your head that will never fade.

Everyone’s unique musical taste is awesome.

On that note, I like disco. Love it, actually. There ya go. :sunglasses:

I’ve not done Kpop myself, at all, but one day I’m sure I’ll get around to it, and likely after just a few tunes I’ll be tapping my foot and bobbing my head to something or other.

Edit: that track you posted is truly my very first exposure to any K-pop, and I dig it. It’s got a cool RnB vibe that I like, great beat too, very danceable. Thanks!
