Ear Candy is the sixth album by heavy metal/ hard rock trio King's X, released in 1996.
The album has two songs which are rewritten versions of earlier songs: "Picture" is also known as "The Door", a song with different lyrics, released on their pre-King's X release Sneak Preview. The song "Mississippi Moon" is mainly inspired on the song "If I Could Fly", which King's X played in shows after they had changed their name to its definite version, King's X.
The bonus track "Freedom" can also be found as a b-side of the single "A Box". It was later given a proper release on the album Ogre Tones.
Ear Candy is an album by Australian-American pop singer Helen Reddy that was released in the spring of 1977 by Capitol Records and included a modern take on the doo-wop genre ("Long Distance Love"), a Cajun number that gave the Melbourne native her first and only appearance on Billboard magazine's Country chart ("Laissez les Bontemps Rouler"), and a dark self-parody on which she proclaims, "I don't take no shit from nobody" ("Baby, I'm a Star" - not to be confused with the Prince song of the same name). This was her first album since her 1971 eponymous LP that did not receive Gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America and her last album to reach Billboard's Top LP's & Tapes chart. It debuted there in the issue dated May 21, 1977, and made it to number 75 during its 19 weeks there, and in Canada's RPM magazine it got as high as number 84. On February 23, 2010, it was released for the first time on compact disc as one of two albums on one CD, the other album being her 1978 studio release, We'll Sing in the Sunshine.
