aeseaes - Megalomaniac[^]
I've been listening to a lot of metal lately, but my girlfriend doesn't always agree with that 
She wanted something more relaxed, so I found aeseaes and we both liked it instantly.
From their website: "aeseaes (pronounced A-C-S) is an independent husband-and-wife musical duo based in Austin, TX. Their songs blend dark folk with surreal lyrics and cinematic arrangements, featuring upright bass, trombone, vibraphone, piano, cello, collages of found sounds, and beyond."
This song is the first song on their debut from 2021, Shapeshifter.
Certainly impressive for a debut and also SOTW!

I finally found two bands that my wife really can't listen, Arch Enemy and Jinjer.
At least now she knows how I feel when she puts on the discography of Johnny Flynn, or the less known Pearl Jam songs.

You should listen to the SOTW more often.
I think I mentioned Jinjer before, but you'd undoubtedly find lots of music your wife really can't listen

Nope, she does like heavy stuff - Slayer, Slipknot, System of a down, Metallica, Black Sabbath, Dio, Judas Priest... just not Jinjer (for the rhytms) and too much growl.

Bit too guitar-y for me.
Sometimes reminds me of the Borderlands soundtrack.

Good song, enjoyed at first at a superficial level.
But I then really listened to the lyrics. Is this a song about women having to worry about rufies everytime they go out? If it is, then it is quite powerful message. If not then still a good song.
Quote: From the dust hundred forty three one
Fell in the circle of the world like a flower bud
A million marbled mouths all blinking
Moon of milky briar blooms sleeping
Blithy flies swarm a swift pull trigger
Lift me off the ledge, lick the sticky liquor
Don’t let him in, don’t let them call your number
Won’t you hold my hand as I go under?
Ooh, come a little closer
Ooh, same as the last
Ooh, megalomaniac
Cut my tongue, better watch your back
Eye to thigh as he sharpens his blade
Thick sweat, sick salt, lead bellyaches
I don’t know what I’ve been drinking
Dripping dread as all the lights start scrеaming
Seven-inch steel bolt fed to thе head
Now is then and I am now bound to forget
The devil wears a cotton dress over his gun
Jagged mumbles wispy warbles blushing in the sun
Ooh, come a little closer
Ooh, same as the last
Ooh, megalomaniac
Cut my tongue, better watch your back
Ooh, come a little closer
Ooh, same as the last
Ooh, megalomaniac
Cut my tongue, better watch your back

I have no idea what it's about.
Maybe she just forgot the name of her beverage, or the specific flavor.

You may/may not like this one if you're listening to something heavier (Fair warning, don't watch if you are squeamish).
My daughter put me onto this band. Battlesnake, funny as f$%k if you have that sort of sense of humour.

Jim Hendrix was an experience. Saw him live many moons ago.

musically, reminds me of Gotye and Kimbra's mini-art-song-opera "Somebody That I Used to Love:" [^] ...
imho, Kimbra is a first-class jazz/ballad singer, as well as able to sing like she does in the above.

I remember that song from when it was popular on MTV and radio
Somewhere in 2016 you recommended Kimbra's Two-way street to me, which also made it into the SOTW

Yeah, this certainly isn't difficult listening

I'm channeling my inner child today:
Happy Birthday to me!
Happy Birthday to me!
Can I open my presents?
I've been up since three!
(Please assume I got someone who can sing to perform that - woudln't want to scare anyone away.)

It can be proven statistically that people who have more birthdays live longer.

 Yes, Logic dictates such.
More logic
You do not need a parachute to skydive.
You only need a parachute to skydive twice.

Or to formalize it

where S is the number of times you can skydive and P is the number of parachutes you have.
