I know there was a bit of a thing that Canadian band The Tea Party was more successful in Australia than elsewhere.

But they were really, really good. Albums 'The Edges Of Twilight' and 'Transmission' especially.

(I saw them live at the Shellharbour Worker's Club!)

My with may be a bit obscure, but I'm going with 'Army Ants' by The Tea Party.

Not only that, I'm going with the live version played on the legendary ABC TV show "Recovery".

[QUESTION OF THE WEEK] What's an alternative band you should TOTALLY BE INTO based on your taste, but no matter how hard you tried... it just didn’t click: lemmy.world/post/4864014

Bands where, on paper, when you do the math, you should totally be a fan! “If you love X, you’ll definitely love Y!” yet something about the band… it… it just didn’t hit right with you.

Me: Radiohead. Weird, proggy, alt, quirky, check! But nope. Dead inside for them.

FINAL! Edition Day 30!!! An alternative song that REMINDS YOU OF YOURSELF. - lemmy.world/post/4667127

I guess it shouldn’t be super weird to say one of my own songs that is about me would be a song that “reminds me of me”, right?

Fairy Eyelashes - “Better And Better”

Edition Day 25 - An alternative song you love by an artist NO LONGER ALIVE! 💀🪦

lemmy.world/post/4371006

They may be dead, but their music lives on (and so does this challenge).

Let’s go to Morphine and “I’m Free Now” - Such an amazing and unlikely band (really??? a sax, bass, and drums? that’s it??). Gone way too soon.

Come join the convo on with us!

Edition Day 15 - An alternative song you like that's a COVER of another artist. -- WITH YOUTUBE PLAYLIST!

lemmy.world/post/3747215

Who doesn’t love a cover song??? Especially when it’s BETTER than the original?

This one should be real good today. Can not WAIT to see what y’all got. The hard part is picking just one or two! Here's one of my covers while I think on a fave.

Edition Day 14 - An alternative song you'd want played at your WEDDING

This one is pretty easy for me.

When my partner & I got married, I DJ’d our own wedding with a series of playlists for each part of the night. Then we gave out a mixtape that represented tracks from the night.

From there, every year on our anniversary, we make another playlist. We’ve been married 15 years, so that’s 16 mixtapes of music. (link in lemmy post)

If I had to pick 1 song, it would be the lead off song, Decemberists “The Crane Wife 1 & 2”.

lemmy.world/post/3684045

The Crane Wife story and then album were part of our relationship while we were dating, then the night the Decemberists came to town touring the Crane Wife, that was the night I proposed, then we went to go see them. We still have the concert posters from that night up in our bedroom.

So yeah. Easy one.

Gotta say, I'm really enjoying the Alternative Nation community on lemmy.world. It's very active and people have great taste.
