Well, it’s a slow day, so I’ll tell this story. One day Nick Lowe received a million-pound royalty check and had no idea where it came from. Turns out, one of the cover versions of “(What’s So Funny About) Peace, Love and Understanding” was recorded by Curtis Stigers. I don’t think there’s anything particularly special about that version, but it did appear on the soundtrack to The Bodyguard, which of course on the back of Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” sold eleventy billion copies. (Apparently Lowe didn’t even know the Stigers version existed until he got his royalty check.)

I’m happy for Lowe. It’s good when a prime mover who doesn’t have much commercial success themselves strikes it lucky like that, because so many others benefited from him before.
It’s a bit like when the VU reformed (and then split up again because of the same arguments about money lol) because Lou Reed (somewhat churlishly) said it was “pay back time” for the countless indie bands who had careers thanks to them.

Hitting up Russian pop music again
Lyrics in Cyrillic text, romanized Russian and English translation
I don’t have a clue what those are but I’ll take your word for it.
CAN’s weak spot was their album art which was, even by the standard of the day, quite terrible.
I provided the drawings in my edit
The body of Eva Unit 01 (from the Evangelion anime series) and the screencap are nearly identical while the shape of Galactus’s head (from Marvel Comics) is similar to the screencap as well. There are some small differences but not huge ones.
Can’t forget about Mongolian rock music either
lol I think you’re right!
