      Post any cover art (EPs, single art, etc. are also fine of course) that looks shockingly ahead of its time. There's so many odd examples of artists being strangely predictive of trends far in the future, let's collect some of them.

      Note, I totally stole the idea from this thread over on rym, so if you want to see more then look there. Lots of good answers already :)

    4. What is a line from a song that has stuck with you recently?

      What's a song lyric that has recently jumped out at you, caught your attention, resonated, or made you think? This doesn't have to be a favorite/best of all time topic, though feel free to post...

      This doesn't have to be a favorite/best of all time topic, though feel free to post those if they speak to you. I'm more interested in something you encountered recently that you really like, appreciate, or find interesting, for whatever reason.
