Back in the eighties, I loved Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and upon reading the film's credits, I discovered the ending song, Oh Yeah, was by a band called Yello. In the spirit of irony, I went to my local record shop in Burnie looking to get a copy for myself. I purchased a cassette copy of 'The New Mix In One Go' (a best of album), and it ignited a lifelong love of the band that persists to this day.

Stella, the album from which it comes is also one of their best.

Yello continued making music through the 2000s and 2010s. The album ‘Point’ from 2020 is pretty good, with ‘Waba Duba’ being the headlining track. The dudes' knees are obviously not as spry as they once were, though.

In similar news, Sparks also continue to crank out bangers: see e.g. ‘Missionary Position’.

The Eye is a brilliant album, too.
