Well to keep the trend of model/actress/musician...

 

Milla Jovovich - The Alien Song

To give some variety on where someone can go with this one...

The song is from Milla's first album 'The Divine Comedy' which she released in 1994 at the age of 19. Most of the songs off of the album were written when she was 16.

 

PS - supposedly she's some kind of expert in martial arts as well (that should open some doors for the next post)...

I'll bring it all back home with the Great Scots, otherwise known as Canada's Beatles.

These five boys from Nova Scotia flew to New York in 1965 and snuck into a Columbia Records executive's office and were soon playing American Bandstand.

 

They disbanded in 1967 when the lead singer was drafted for the Vietnam war.

well we can't let the Scots theme go without a wee look at the band Big Country.... started with so much promise in the 80's with their debut and then faded... one of the reasons??? They were initially lauded as Scotland's answer to U2....

 

Big Country - In a Big Country
