Getting by

2 O'Clock - Kaki King (from her album "Dreaming of Revenge", where her purposely naive voice and eerie melodies sometimes remind me of Björk.)

"2 O'Clock, you're still sleeping
When you wake up you'll be in such pain.
And I wait with the plate piled high with my love
That you won't eat from."

How can you not love the person who wrote these words?

Another from her: covering I Think That She Knows (LoveStoned), originally by Justin Timberlake.

Mad World - Gary Jules (originally Tears for Fears)
All my love girl, you're the Tigger to my Pooh =)

Since "with a little help from my friends" was on my mind and I know Sgt. Pepper by heart, the next song is Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds.

Finally the surreal Pink Elephants on Parade from Disney's Dumbo *wink*, not with the original music from the film but a cover by the wildly eccentric jazz artist Sun Ra. Here are some of the original sketches for the scene.
