This a joyful, surprising track from Bobbie Gentry's 1967 album. To me it still sounds fresh and is so cleverly put together I can't help smiling every time I hear it. "Yellow dotted swiss" - I don't...

That Zorn clip was a lot less unconventional than I was expecting; quite delicate and melodious, in fact.

The Christian Zehnder was really strange, though! Is that some tuvan throat singing...

Thanks for your comment, Pet_Sounds. Yeah, I´m also no fan of MJ´s music; I admired him more as a dancer and full-time weirdo than anything else!

Ticking Bomb:
