This year marks the 15th anniversary of one of the '90s most memorable pop culture moments -- Oklahoma indie stars the Flaming Lips paying a visit to the gang of the original 'Beverly Hills, 90210' at the Peach Pit. Lips frontman Wayne Coyne tells Spinner the band still gets recognized for it. "I run into people all the time who've seen that show in reruns," he says.

Now, of course, it's a moment the band can laugh about but Coyne admits it almost didn't happen. "We'd already been a band for 10 years," he says. "But I think earlier on we probably would have just scoffed at it and said, 'We're not into this silliness. We're a serious band, we do art and we do music and f--- you.' But I think we were starting to embrace the kind of absurd extras that come with being in a rock band because really that's where all the fun is, to tell you the truth."

It's been more than two years since we've last heard from Austin, Texas' Explosions in the Sky in the form of new material. While the band is gearing up for a short 10th anniversary tour this summer, they're slowly getting some new songs to take shape.

"We were having some trouble the last few months finding a direction. We just kept hitting walls," drummer Christopher Hrasky tells Spinner. "But things have picked up in the last few weeks. We're just feeling really enthusiastic about the new stuff we're working on. It's impossible to say when we will have a new record. It will probably be a while as we've never been particularly fast workers."

Although they've always retained 100 percent of their street cred, the Apples in Stereo have never had any qualms about licensing their music. That said, we'd like to know their thoughts on their song 'Energy' being covered by 'American Idol' for use in a car commercial.

You read that right: Just as 'Idol' stars last week took Lykke Li's 'I'm Good, I'm Gone' and made it into a Ford commercial (err, "video" as host Ryan Seacrest would have you believe), this week the remaining contestants sang 'Energy' for that same promo. The upshot is that, with a tune as catchy as 'Energy,' the Apples in Stereo may have actually picked up a hefty chunk of new fans. The downside? One of them may be Paula Abdul.

Prince has offered up a couple of personal revelations in a rare new television interview. Appearing on 'The Tavis Smiley Show' to promote his recent three-disc album 'Lotusflow3r', Prince disclosed his childhood struggle with epilepsy, his determination to thrive on the piano at a young age and his endorsement of some unusual conspiracy theories.

"I've never spoken about this before, but I was born epileptic and I used to have seizures when I was young," he told the PBS talk-show host. "And my mother and father didn't know what to do or how to handle it, but they did the best they could with what little they had. One day I walked in to her and said, 'Mom, I'm not going to be sick anymore,' and she said, 'Why?', and I said, 'Because an angel told me so.'"

When faux news anchor Stephen Colbert announced on his show 'The Colbert Report' Monday night that his guests would be the Decemberists, he joked that "Tonight's the night they sell out." Instead, it was the night they remained indie, almost to a fault. A Pitchfork tweet (@pitchforkmedia) observed that the "Decemberists are kinda bombing this interview." It's not that they actually bombed it, per-se, it's just that they, well, took their appearance on a Comedy Central series a little too seriously, perhaps. After all, Colbert described the band's latest album, 'Hazards of Love' as a "list of STDs, set to music."

For his part, Colbert seemed enthused to engage the Decemberists' Colin Meloy and Chris Funk, but he was mostly met with literal answers and nervous smiles. Ah, well, as Twitter's one-time briefly-famed Ben Gibbard impostor (now known as @BenGibbardFan) noted, via tweet of course: "@ColinMeloy has a great, wide smile, and Chris doesn't say much. Despite the awkward interview, they're still charming."

Impostor or not, that's all true. Watch the full episode.

The 'Wolverine' has nothing on the rocker chick from Norway. When hot new singer Ida Maria dedicated 'I Like You So Much Better When You're Naked' to Hugh Jackman Monday night during her performance on 'The Tonight Show,' the Australian actor, who was sitting on Jay Leno's couch, turned to mush.

Whenever she plays the tongue-in-cheek rocker, "I always try to stare at the most self-confident man in the room and check out how he reacts," she tells Spinner. Jackman seemingly wilted a little under the attention. "He couldn't focus his eyes, he seemed a little insecure all of a sudden," Maria says, adding she fears she made him a little nervous.

If fans of Lykke Li were worried that her set at Coachella's outdoor theater this past weekend spelled imminent mainstream success, they might've been onto something: not even one full week later, the remaining contestants on 'American Idol' covered her track 'I'm Good, I'm Gone' (which, by the way, isn't even the lead single). And it gets better, yet: the song appeared as part of a Ford commercial. OK, technically it was a "video" as it is shown during the show, and as part of the show, but now we're talking semantics -- it was a Ford commercial. See the clip and judge for yourself.

And don't worry, if the secret is out about Lykke Li, don't blame 'American Idol.' After all, 99 percent of the viewers didn't know what the song was. Until now. Wait ...
