Not especially serious comment

While I don't think disambiguation is needed between physics and music, it idly occurred to me to think of the equivalent of energy levels in heavily electronically assisted music groups. Clearly, a lead vocalist is closer to the nucleus than a backup singer. If Lady Gaga were an electron, she presumably would not shift to a backup band.

For the record, I know even less about popular music than I do about atomic structure. Howard C. Berkowitz 16:59, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
