They are one of the all-time most popular rock bands from/in Poland. "Simple Song#3" or "Simple Song Number 3" is an original song sung by South Korean singer Sumi Jo.  The song was released as the lead single from the soundtrack album of 2015 film "Youth" written and composed by American composer David Lang. Eternal Boy is an American pop punk band from Pittsburgh, PA, which had been called The SpacePimps prior to 2016.  The band consists of vocalist and lead guitar player Rishi Bahl, bass guitar player Joe Harbulak, and drummer Andy Mayer.  The band's original name came from a nephew of the band, who was describing them as "pimps from outer space."  The SpacePimps have released 3 full-length albums and have a touring history that includes years on the Vans Warped Tour, as well as touring in China and Japan.  Their most recent album, "Eternal Boy", charted in the top 40 on the iTunes charts, and in the top 20 on the iTunes Alternative charts. Kurdt Vanderhoof (born June 28, 1961) is an American guitarist, best known as the lead guitarist and founding member of the American heavy metal band Metal Church.  As early as 1976, in Aberdeen, Vanderhoof was ardently networking with local musicians and had formed a band called Tyr, which included Kirk Arrington on drums and Vanderhoof on rhythm guitar.  In 1978 Vanderhoof joined Seattle hardcore punk band The Lewd adopting the stage name "Blobbo" on bass guitar, switching instruments to guitar the following year.  The Lewd relocated from Seattle to San Francisco in 1980.  Following Vanderhoof's departure from The Lewd he formed Metal Church, named after a nickname given to his San Francisco apartment.  Vanderhoof moved back to his hometown, Aberdeen, Washington, with a vinyl single of Trash Can Baby as proof of his interlude with the Lewd.  In the summer of 1982, he formed a heavy metal cover band named Shrapnel.  It consisted of Tom Weber on drums, Duke Erickson on bass (both from Hoquiam), Mike Murphey ("muff", from Montesano) and a guitar player Vanderhoof had jammed with in high school(Aberdeen).  Shrapnel played four events to warm up, including a frat party at Pacific Lutheran University, after which the other guitar player quit, having had a religious experience, unwilling to cover The Number of The Beast by Iron Maiden.  His part was replaced by Craig Wells of Aberdeen, and Tom was eventually replaced by Kirk Arrington (also from Hoquiam) on drums.  When Mike Murphy left the band, they recruited David Wayne for vocal duties.  By 1983, Shrapnel had renamed itself to Vanderhoof's original band name, Metal Church. The acoustic bass guitar (sometimes shortened to acoustic bass or initialized ABG) is a bass instrument with a hollow wooden body similar to, though usually larger than a steel-string acoustic guitar.  Like the traditional electric bass guitar and the double bass, the acoustic bass guitar commonly has four strings, which are normally tuned E-A-D-G, an octave below the lowest four strings of the 6-string guitar, which is the same tuning pitch as an electric bass guitar. Larry Graham Jr. (born August 14, 1946) is an American bass guitar player, both with the psychedelic soul/funk band Sly and the Family Stone, and as the founder and frontman of Graham Central Station.  He is credited with the invention of the slapping technique, which radically expanded the tonal palette of the bass, although he himself refers to the technique as "thumpin' and pluckin' ". Paul David Harbour (born 1965) is an American bass guitar and guitar player, pianist and composer.  He is recognised for his work with David T. Chastain, Michael Harris and Tony MacAlpine.  He has played in the bands "Leather", "Chastain" and "King Diamond".  He teaches bass guitar, guitar and piano. Don Schiff (born November 9, 1955) is a bass guitar, Chapman Stick, NS/Stick, and bowed guitar player on recordings, TV, and film sessions.  He is one of the earliest Stick, NS/Stick, and bowed guitar players.  He helped popularize the NS/Stick and a technique of using a carabiner as a slide and tapping device. "Sing a Simple Song" is a 1968 song by the soul/rock/funk band Sly and the Family Stone, the b-side to their #1 hit "Everyday People".  The song's lyrics, sung in turn by Sly Stone, Freddie Stone, Rose Stone, and Larry Graham, with spoken word (or, rather, shouted word) sections by Cynthia Robinson, offer a simple solution for dealing with the problems and paradoxes of existence : "Sing a simple song!"  As with nearly all of Sly and the Family Stone's songs, Sylvester "Sly Stone" Stewart was credited as the sole songwriter. "It's Late" is a song written by Queen guitarist Brian May and performed by the band for their 1977 album "News of the World".  The song was May's idea of treating a song as a three-act theatrical play, and the verses are called "acts" in the lyrics sheet.  It makes use of the tapping technique a few months before Eddie Van Halen's use of the tapping technique on the "Van Halen" album.  May told "Guitar Player Magazine" that his use of the tapping technique was inspired by Texas guitarist Rocky Athas, after seeing one of his performances at Mother Blues, a Dallas club.  Tapping had also been previously used by other players, notably Steve Hackett of Genesis.  The song is notable for its length and heavy, wide vocal range (E3-E6), bluesy guitar riff, and using the previously mentioned technique.
