Of that list, I know TMBG. Always a fav of mine, and I appreciate their attempts to educate and promote science. The sun is a miasma of incandescent plasma!

They've definitely been one of my faves as well since I was a kid and found them while watching Malcom in the Middle

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas...

It is, but they adopted it. It was originally written by Hy Zaret. They give him credit, of course, but it became theirs to steward.

That whole proapgandhi thing about then regretting the lyrics to Halle salasse up you ass for talking shit about Rastafari was dumb. That religion is nuts.
