1. A French Electronic music producer (now named Tommy '86), very inspired by 80's music such as synth-wave, synth-pop, new-wave, italo-disco, and other related genres. He started to make music in mid-2011, but produced his first synthwave tracks only at the beginning of 2012. After listening to a track of College he had the idea to do this kind of music. His first synth-wave productions had enough feedback to encourage him to continue. Tommy has released a few singles, three EP, one LP and some remixes, for other synth-wave artists such as Awkoder, Protector 101, Future Feelings and Gossip Culture. He also released three other remixes for three more established electronic artists: Kavinsky, Lifelike and Sébastien Tellier. "Getting high" is one of the four remixes chosen by Lifelike & Popular Computer themselves and has been released on their own Computer Science label.
2. Pop-punk band from Ukiah, CA with a penchant for gang vocals. Comprised of: Tim Parks - Guitar, Vocals; Christian Freeman - Drums; Luke Slinkert - Vox, Guitar and Chad Goodin - Bass, Vocals and signed to independent label Bound By The Black Rag records. They kick it.
3. Songwriter, Tommy Donald Colin from Belgium writes his songs, his words and composes his arrangements on his own, creating a sensitive sound directed towards melody, giving a positive energy while remaining cool. Then he leaves his roots, folk, rock, oriental or still electro, and surrounds himself with his musicians Dominique Djian (keys), Olivier Duck Calmeyn (bass) and Benoit Fix Derycke (drums) with whom a genuine band spirit has arisen.
4. Tommy is a 4 piece rock band that originated in Beijing. All 4 met as expats living overseas and formed in early 2005. Members include Joe Bissell (guitar, vocals), David Su (drums), Mitchell Marecki (bass), Chris Suderman (Keyboards, backing vocals). Their style involves extensive jams, fusing of many genres into rock (suck as jazz, and even Indian melodies), and unorthodox stage shows. Tommy has recently had an offer to sign to a record label in Beijing which they had to refuse due to legal complications.
5. Tommy from New Zealand brings together the moods of reggae, rock, soul and a dash of pop in a melodic melting pot to form their 'folk roots' sound. Comfortably sitting alongside the adult contemporary music of Jack Johnson and the John Butler Trio, Tommy's sound is rooted in soothing melodies and flowing piano lines which meld in an organic blend that is unmistakably from Aotearoa.
6. There is also a duo comprised of Carrie Brownstein and Lois Maffeo called Tommy, and they've only recorded a song called "Go Sonics".
7. A Norwegian guitarist and vocalist. Is a guitarist in the famous Norwegian folkrock band, PLUMBO.

Middle finger out the window, Bentley

Middle finger out the window, Bentley
Yea i'm still trapping hard, Benny
Now all these fakes are leaving
Got no room for fucking cheating
These dudes are still believing it
I just like looking 'em beefing
Quante storie su sta roba
Ormai un discorso che m'annoia
Dici mai mai mai una gioia
Ma continui a far la stessa roba
Ma zio con che faccia
Hai coraggio di finire la tua traccia
Fai il personaggio che spaccia
Ma è solo carta straccia
Vuoi thug life sulla pancia
Ma hai caramelle nella pancia
Ma che vuoi che faccia
Bro faccio sta cosa, non chiedo mancia
We're still about cash in, roll out... ay
Still flexing out, call me Guwop
We're still about cash in, roll out... ay
Still flexing out, call me Guwop!

The lyrics of Tommy's song "Nah Neh Nah" are centered on the theme of success and the pursuit of greatness. It begins with a repetition of "Has the boy Tommy ever left?" and "Has the boy Hydra ever left?" which suggests that they have always been there and will always be there. This echoes the idea that once you become successful, you become an integral part of the status quo and are no longer easily replaceable.
The lines "Shooting high, scoring goals, Bale - Benzema" refer to two famous football players and imply that they are aiming for the same level of success as these players. The phrase "Am I going to stop?" is a rhetorical question, hinting that Tommy and Hydra will not stop until they reach their goals. The next few lines are a rebuke directed towards an unnamed person who was supposedly asking for help but ended up being ungrateful.
The song's Italian-language verse features a criticism of the monotony of the music industry and people who claim to be tough but are actually soft-hearted. The pre-chorus and chorus are repeated, emphasizing the message that Tommy and Hydra are here to stay, and they will not be stopped.
