In 1998 Ethan voiced Jetro in the German version of Prince of Egypt. His version of the song "Through Heaven's Eyes" is heard in the movie and the German soundtrack. You can listen to it here:

Kneeling statue of Amenemopetemhat, Late Period, Saite, 664–610 B.C.

Amenemope-em-hat was director of the Singers of the North and Overseer of the Singers of Amenemope. The second title was inherited from his father, whose equally fine statue has recently been discovered at Tanis, where there was a cult of Amenemope, a form of the god Amun. The first title implies wider authority. Amenemope-em-hat holds before him the cult object of the cow-eared goddess Hathor. The proportions of this figure, its muscularity, and such details as the slanted ridges of the collarbone and the shallow depression down the center of the torso represent a conscious attempt in the Late Period to emulate the classic works of the Old and Middle Kingdoms.

From Egypt; Said to be from Memphite Region, Memphis (Mit Rahina), Ptah Temple,

H. 64.5 × W. 32 × D. 40.5 cm, 101.6 kg (25 3/8 × 12 5/8 × 15 15/16 in., 224 lb.)

Shuffle your 'on repeat' playlist and post the first ten tracks, then tag ten people

I was tagged by @heresluck!

I don’t really have an “on repeat” playlist, so I threw together my different favorite playlists (mostly sorted by vibe, emotion, or which fandom I associate with which songs) and shuffled them into a giant “list of bangers to belt in the car.” I skipped repeated artists (look, Ani DiFranco’s late 90s-early 00’s run was *formative*)

(1) Because the Night (Live MTV Unplugged) - 10,000 Maniacs

(2) Parachute (Serbian Ghenea mix) - Ingrid Michaelson

(3) Darkness, Darkness - Richard Shindell

(4) Hail Mary Shy of Redemption- Eddie From Ohio

(5) Pick Yer Nose - Ani Difranco

(6) When I Go - Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer

(7) Ladder - Joan Osborne

(8) You Gotta Be - Des’ree

(9) Pilentze Pee (Pilentze Sings) - Bulgarian Women’s Chorus

(10) Scarborough Fair - The King’s Singers ft. Manuel Barrueco

I feel 2000s pop is underrepresented in this sample, so please allow the additions of the first two that shuffled up:

(11) Sober - P!nk

(12) If I Were a Boy - Beyoncé

The most played non-Hamilton musical on my iPhone is either the 2009 Idina Menzel/Josh Groban CHESS or the 1998 OST for THE PRINCE OF EGYPT. That feels representative.

The most played classical piece is the 1955 version of Glenn Gould playing Bach’s Goldberg Variations, which is directly wired to affect my nervous system like Valium.

If you have noticed that I haven’t listened to much new music, well spotted! @heresluck and @kouredios are working on me, as are a couple of other friends, but I have been remiss about putting together new playlists, as I have spent most of the last two years listening to audiobooks (especially the Murderbot Diaries and the Goblin Emperor books).

Tagging @megastoat, @cincoseis, @white-throated-packrat, @fremedon, @agentreynard, @dsudis , @changingthingslikeleaves, @bgoodg and @cereta if they’ve thus far escaped being tagged by someone else and would like to play. But anyone is welcome!

Funerary Figure of Isis, Singer of the Aten - Met Museum Collection

Inventory Number: 66.99.38 New Kingdom, Amarna Period, Dynasty 18, ca. 1353–1336 B.C. Location Information: From Egypt; Probably from Middle Egypt, Amarna (Akhetaten)

Description:

This funerary figure belonged to a woman who had the title Singer of the Aten, the god worshipped by Akhenaten. Althought similar to a shabti, this figure is not inscribed with chapter six of the Book of the Dead (the shabti spell) and makes no mention of the funerary god Osiris. In a seeming paradox, but one that speaks of the strong psychological and cultural ties of ordinary Egyptians to the traditional religion, the owner is called Isis, the name of the great funerary goddess who was the wife of Osiris. The facial features, including the so-called "sfumato" eyes, closely resemble the style of Amarna.
