Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse... but you take a boat in the air that you don't love... she'll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down... tells you she's hurting before she keels. Makes her a home.  -Mal

Postmodern Jukebox

Jazz pianist Scott Bradlee initially held pop and rap music in disdain.  Then, thanks to fan requests for modern songs, he began looking at the music in a different way, and saw that many had artistic merit somewhere within.
So, he began to alter the songs in different styles; hence came Postmodern Jukebox.

I first saw them only today in this interesting redo of a rap song called "Talk Dirty", with some of the explicit verses done in Yiddish:

They also have guest singers, including this sad clown singing Lorde's "Royals":

While not exactly "modern", wow:

Hot. Hot. Hot.  Pitch Perfect viewers would know this as the rap song sung in the swimming pool riff-off contest:

And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling.

Last night I went to see another immersive theater show called Play/Date and afterwards I went back to the bar from Sleep No More to see this gal perform...

She apparently is involved with this postmodern jukebox thing...
