Apples in Stereo

Flashback ten years: I was eating cereal while simultaneously watching Cartoon Network. A promo video for the Power Puff Girls comes on with lyrics that repeated the words signal in the sky. I had just been exposed to Apples in Stereo. I did not know it at the time but I had. The perfect example of just how long these guys have been around. Between Powerpuff Promos and Pepsi ads most of America has been exposed to these guys at some point, and only about three percent know it. Frontman Robert Schnieder (no relation to the famous actor) is my favorite high pitched vocalist for two reasons. First reason being He has incredible vocal skills obviously, and second his appearance completely catches you off guard. He has a beard for christ sakes. Who would have thought his voice could sound like that? On a more recent note they have collaborated with everyone's favorite hobbit Elijah Wood on the video for their latest single Dancefloor. I suggest you watch that as well.

For those of you that remember the Cartoon Network promo and want to take a dance down memory lane I has linkz.
