This is an amazing cover of Queen’s “One Vision.” The video is actually Queen, rather than the Laibach one, but I thought it was funnier that way. I have posted the Laibach video below.
Now I first discovered this song on the Cleopatra compilation “Industrial Revolution.” However, it didn’t stand out until I was working day one and the song came on; I actually laughed out loud in my cubical. Now, you must understand that the Queen song has mnemonic connection for me–it is the song the main character plays in Iron Eagle when he flies. So, this “Tune of the Day” is at least eight years overdue.
