Olivia Newton-John - Don't Stop Believin' (Mirror Ball Remix)

In 1980, Billy Noknees decided to shake things up once again and headed to Los Angeles with a brand-new backing band, dubiously dubbed the "Brides of OBIISSS." The plan was simple: craft a killer single with the help of producer Ian "Shorty" Shortlegs, a man known for his no-nonsense approach to music and his rather... compact stature. However, as with all things Billy, the session didn’t quite go as planned.

The track they were working on, a soon-to-be-forgotten gem called Legs Don’t Lie, started off promisingly enough. The Brides of OBIISSS were tight, the groove was on point, and Billy was ready to bring his signature flair to the mix. But as the session wore on, something strange happened—Billy and Shorty began bickering about, of all things, whose legs were more flexible. What started as a joke quickly escalated into a full-blown argument about leg-bending capabilities.

Tensions hit their peak when both men, unwilling to back down, attempted to outdo each other in an impromptu leg-bending competition, right there in the middle of the studio. The Brides of OBIISSS, caught somewhere between amusement and concern, watched as the two men twisted, bent, and stretched themselves into increasingly ridiculous positions, neither willing to concede defeat. When words weren’t enough, things got physical, and soon the studio was filled with the sounds of a full-blown scuffle.

Amidst the chaos, the recording was abandoned, and the session ended in disaster. The single Freak Out was shelved, with the tapes gathering dust as both Billy and Shorty swore never to speak of the leg-bending incident again.

Fast forward to 1988, when a curious discovery was made in Shorty’s loft during a routine cleanout. Among old boxes and forgotten memories, the single—still intact—was found tucked away, a relic of that infamous session. The track, surprisingly well-preserved, was remastered using AI and is now presented here with its original sleeve.

For the first time since that leg-tangling day, Freak Out  is ready to be heard, a disco-funk tune born from a fight over flexibility. Enjoy this rare piece of OBIISSS history, where musical collaboration and leg competition collided in truly bizarre fashion!
