It would appear that Star Wars film-makers have a bit of a thing about daft singing aliens. Ever since the Modal Nodes first appeared, we've had a good few examples of what the Galaxy Far, Far Away likes to get down to and Solo has possibly the strangest yet.

One of the pleasures of Star Wars is in the strangeness the brand allows film-makers to get away with. There's literally nothing they can't put in there and get away with under the banner of strange new worlds and cultures and the new singing alien head in a jar is right up there with the weirdest.
