As always I didn't read the opening text properly. Sorry. But here's Sia singing while pretending to be Lorde in a funny South Park-episode. The genre is Urban:

Don't worry about the opening text overmuch. That was just a extremely sleept me thinking about how to approach this and I already think rather differently. Don't have to limit to one video, don't have to go up a letter with each post.... Pretty flexible. All responses have been good and appreciated.

I'll do V for Vaporwave.

^ Oh yeah, with Z there is Zeuhl. And I'm big on something called Zolo (Cardiacs, the Residents, Zappa, Devo etc.) With W there is Western CLassical Music, or Western. With X, looking it up there is Xote, but I was going to do Xylophonecore or some such thing. With y there is Yodelling (considered a genre).

W is for Western (Western Spaghetti in this case):

Ennio Morricone - The Ecstacy of Gold



EDIT: And there is World Music generally.

There was an annual Cajun food and music festival that I would go to and there would usually be a zydeco band. The last Richmond Folk Festival I attended had a zydeco band playing. Fun music to see and hear live. I don't own any personally except for one track on a compilation CD. I'll post it if it's on YouTube.

Technically it's Spaghetti Western (from the film genre), but I include this under Western, which includes music used in Westerns.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I don't know about that to be honest. It's just movie soundtracks, film music... 

Watched Once Upon a Time in the West a little while ago. Brilliant movie and music. 
Also watched rather poor Italian poliziotteschi just because Morricone did the soundtrack. LOL
