Or on the androgyn side, Big Bang with it's 80 million hits. K Pop for the win.

Watching Der Untergang and listening to eclectic (esoteric) music. It'll pass for a saturday I guess. Beers drunk, me not quite. But it'll pass. Sultans of ping go hyper british, which isn't uncommen, guess they learned that from sex pistols. Band got a good roll which I always prefer.

The other band doesn't quite hook me, but then again, I'm just a camouflaged ignorant at the end of the day.

How bout a danish electro falsetto.

Here's a bit of danish true love. From 1916 I think.

The Oats

Here I stand with tinkling bells galore,
Twenty on each straw, I think, or more.
But the farmer, bless his honest soul,
Calls me oats and speaks of twenty fold.

I was sown while happy birds in spring
Made with joyful song the welkin ring.
Bumble bees in wild and tumbling race,
In the mellow sunshine droned the bass.

Growing up in sunny morning dew
That sweet Symphony within me grew.
He who listens humbly while I ring,
Hears the echo of the songs of spring.

Cold, unfeeling hearts can never see
Anything but cattle-feed in me.
I am more than food for hungry jaws,
I am song of birds on golden straws.

I am friends with everything that grows,
Friends with every gentle wind that blows,
Friends with waving trees and summer skies,
Friends with daisies and with butterflies.

When the sun goes down, its parting smile
Lingers on my golden head a while,
And when evening bells ring out, I too
Tinkle, standing tip-toe in the dew.

I am ringing children to their beds,
Ringing up the mist that slowly spreads,
Ringing peace, as busy day departs,
Into humble homes and pious hearts.

Jeppe Aakjær
English lyrics by S.D. Rodholm
 
Great music, them furry animals have had a bite of Marvin Gaye before they went onstage. Not trying to be him of course, they give it their own.

Last thing not for me, too old for that. Too old for thinking I could score on the dancefloor to a beat like that. It didn't happen.

Hard pressed to come up with a danish dance beat in the genre. This one has a few danish fingerprints on it.
