I believe in you! Also ping me if you'd like suggestions on how to say it.

@Emerald Heart Sounds good!

@Sepul-Coloratura Well, I don't know about you, but I am amused. I didn't expect the song to be a trick, so good job there - I confidently walked right into it. On the other hand, the song I posted was, in fact, an oldie, and I didn't really expect that degree of analysis. Namely, it was released in 1990, during the initial rise of electronic music, and actually enjoyed a period of semi-popularity {never made the top of the charts, but hovered around them for a while}. So, uh... does that mean that someone else can post a song for everyone to guess now, since we both missed?

I suppose my ideal afterlife would be something akin to the Optimalverse. Just, y'know, without the cannibalization of real world.

What can you tell us about music therapy?

@Sepul-Coloratura Oh, and I'm going to guess... that it's actually fairly recent. The casual mention of hyperspeed in the lyrics makes it seem like that it's far removed from the sixties and seventies the cover image is reminiscent of. The sound quality is also fairly good, with the vinyl crackle and other imperfections actually seeming a little too perfect to be natural. The loud, eclectic style is also becoming more and more of a thing than it used to be even a decade ago, mostly thanks to the increasing accessibility of tools for making art, musical and otherwise. So, I'm going to go with.... 2018 or thereabouts?

Woohoo! Alrighty, how about this?

@Emerald Heart Deduction time. Angry Birds got its fame as being the first popular game on iOS, probably due to being the first of its kind not programmed in Flash, which iOS didn't support. Following the trends, it's likely the song was written and made during the game's rise to fame, probably within a year since the game's initial release before the novelty burnt out. This is also supported by the graphics, both of the game itself and the animation, which lack the pizzazz of newer animation techniques. Plus, the video shows an iPhone as part of an ad, and since it has a fairly old-looking design {no fingerprint-reading home button}, definitely puts the song past the five-year mark. So, with that in mind, I'd say the song pretty much matches the release of iPhone, give or take twelve months. Which... I don't actually know off the top of my head and, will make an educated guess {iPad 2 was still a thing in 2013 , and I think iPads came after iPhones} and say 2010.

They seem just a little bit small.
