how does this connect to the gamecube

How do we know the clue is directly referencing the gamecube. It is a controller rather than the full machine after all. Whilst it could be it could also be referencing control or remote control etc etc.

Yeah my Liz Phair hope hangs on a lyric concerning playing xbox. I feel like GNGO prolly would ahve put the right controller in that context. That said, she covered the Banana Splits theme song and that was a stronger clue tie-in. However, @gaporter's YYY gesticulation is solid.

I mean its an amazing album and we know @girlnevergoesout loves them and that had come to mind because of that song and the controller. It does seem a little bit too on the nose though?

Maybe! I'm just spitballin I'm still batting for Tacocat even tho I admit I'm struggling to connect all the hints.

nice of you to give them luck. I won't need any if you just go ahead and message me the answer whenever you have a second.

Sure thing.

I'm coming back to this thread later to sort out clues, guesses and feets, but I just wanna say that :

That's what I said; disco country punk. Narrows it down severely, I am sure.

Paul Cauthen's Room 41 is almost exactly that.

You all are amazing with these clues and guesses. Go team go!!! (Cheering is my contribution since clues enter my brain and turn it immediately into mush)

After looking at that list of Michael Stipe appearances, I'll also guess Neneh Cherry - Homebrew
@gaporter deserves all the credit if this is it though.

Raw Like Sushi was JUST re-issued, so that would be a timely one

 

[Mr Moore]

Don’t know the album but one by Melvins.

Bananarama did It Ain’t What You Do... with Fun Boy Three that was written by Melvin ‘Sy’ Oliver

Man on the Moon - Buzz

Nintendo - Mario: son of Melvin (Van Peebles)

Yeah, that was my immediate thought, as well.
