    Here at Morning Becomes Eclectic, we take getting each new week off to the right start very seriously. In that spirit, we invite you to pause whatever you might be in the middle of to revel in George Michael’s jaw-dropping performance of “Freedom ‘90,” recorded live and in the round for MTV’s 10th anniversary in 1991. Once you’ve done that, click play on today’s full MBE archive for a “Freedom ‘90” encore, Jungle’s brand new single “Let’s Go Back,” a deeper dive into Ibibio Sound Machine’s The Black Notes EP, and a whole lot more where that came from.
