Did you try them on song-identifying services, like SoundHound and Shazam? I've had a lot of success with them.

Something is definitely fluffed. That's all I can tell you for sure, matey.

Here, I'm just a 5'8" scrawny dude, and yet I need to buy "large" clothing, in the States.

What's up with that..??

The sound, too. It was like bird-chirping.

I loved it.

Hahaha... I love that DEVO song, plus the video!
Thank you for that.

At the same, I also love Weird Al. And yet, that was one of the truly WORST songs I've ever heard of his, oh dear... XD

Whoa! That list looks interesting, maybe with some Dr. Demento vibes..?

I'll be wading in to it! :D
Thank you, NEMO, thank you...

Holy hell, that was both hilarious and awesome!

Also, that caused me to remember that one Eddie Vedder tune. (now added to the list, above)

EDIT: Is there also a place for classic folk songs across the FV..?
Me, I've found three absolute corkers, all tackling the song "500 Miles." I find each version remarkably unique and moving in their own ways, but I'd rather unleash them upon the most-appropriate community, if that makes sense...

EDIT2: If you really insist upon a small sample of such, then let's go with Joan Baez:

I sometimes play "Beneath Apple Manor" (1978) and similar-era games via Apple emulator. Believe it or not, it's a "roguelike" that actually predated Epyx' Rogue (1980) and NetHack (1987).

But I'm also thankful that Epyx' Rogue happened to become used for the overall genre name. "BeneathAppleManorLike" is just too much of a mouthful!

I'd heard about them before, but prefer to reserve judgement until I see things with my own eyes, or at least directly see how they're treating others.

Eventually, at my community, I posted a comic examining some of the various self-strife between Israeli folk, and from out of nowhere 3-4 Hexbear users who'd never taken part before materialised and began ranting about Israel and calling me and the community some pretty awful things. After that, I started paying a little more attention to their user comments across the Fediverse. Just... yikes.

Hexbear is run and populated by toxic extremists largely unable to deal with middle ground and a spectrum of opinion, last I checked. I'd consider this a fortuitous omen to block the whole instance and dust your hands off as a job well done.

So I took 5$ and tossed it in her bag...

I kinda wish you'd take another $5 and toss it in to finding a better user name.

Thanks, AI slop.

Would it help if I slammed it EXTRA-HARD, my lil' cutey...?
