Music related things that you've only just twigged

Only just realised that the female backing vocalist on Marilyn Manson's "Long Hard Road Out of Hell" was none other than Kelli Ali of the Sneaker Pimps. In fact the song was a collaboration between the two bands, though they didn't really hit it off, in spite of Manson praising her vocal.

Also and I know I've mentioned this before, only realised quite recently that Neon Lights, the B-Side of Vertigo, was a Kraftwerk cover. For some reason assumed it was a U2 track.

For years I thought Neon Lights was an uncharacteristically Enoesque bside from that period.  But yeah.  Kraftwerk.

A slightly embarrassing - and, frankly, obscure - one.  I played the David Bowie Lodger-era 'outtake' I Pray Olé one time on Youtube and was blown away by how it seemed to anticipate the eighties.

Turns out it was a bonus track recorded and produced at the end of the eighties, for some reissue or other (although possibly written around 1979).  No fucking wonder.

The Prodigy in their early days had a female member who went by the name "Sharky". That's something I've only just learned.

I feel like if the singer from Skunk Anansie was never in The Prodigy, they ought to have been.

She does look like she ought to have been.

I only recently realized that my mailman looks very much like a guy on the FBI most wanted list.  The guy on the list was wanted for allegedly decapitating several street urchins outside of a very infamous church in Kansas years ago.  I could call the tip line and report him or perhaps just go on about things and mind my own business.....ive always heard its not wise to fuck with the guy who delivers your mail. 

Feel like perhaps there is a song about the postman but nothing really comes to mind.  Maybe i should send the FBI a letter and see if this guy actually delivers it.  That would be fun.

What a voice she has.
