Land of confusion by Katzenjammer. Superior to the Genesis offering in every way.

I’d call this weird, maybe a travesty even

Blood makes noise is a bit of an earworm, my other half declared it a din initially. I later caught her singing it.

That Blue Monday thing reminds me, the live playing of an electronic composition (by Eno) that was never meant to be performed...

Nina Simone doing George Harrison’s My Sweet Lord (albeit as a part of a meddaly) is possibly my favourite bit of music:

Then there’s also this, Pipoliti Rist covering Wicked Game, which is deliciously weird:

No argument with that, brilliant band, the live version is fantastic.

How about Cheshire Chord’s version of I Predict A Riot’?
