Halsey · Deprogrammed Music Podcast

0:34
It's Deprogrammed, the podcast where we try to get you into an
0:37
artist. That's right, we have done all
0:39
the work for you. All you have to do is press
0:43
play. And I may be bad at love, but
0:46
I'm really good at this. Hey, today we're talking about
0:49
Halsey and you know, exciting times here at Deprogrammed
0:53
because because of my panel today surprisingly.
0:58
And I say that based on based on the episodes you've done so far,
1:01
Brian and based on this being the first living one, you've
1:05
done that. Yeah, when I started listening,
1:09
I was actually surprised to find you on this panel.
1:11
So talk to me about Halsey and what made you cuz you you put
1:14
her on the board. Talk to me about it.
1:18
I did so back when I did the episode for Mac Miller.
1:25
I had talked about how. In 2020, I decided that my my
1:30
musical taste was too limited and I needed to expand myself.
1:35
So I started just reading articles and you know, stuff
1:40
about like, you know, what's new, what's up and coming,
1:43
what's good. And one of the albums that was
1:47
suggested was A Halsey. So I decided to give it a go and
1:56
I. I loved it.
1:58
It was great. The reason I put it up, too is
2:02
because I really like, like, I like, I like doing the artists
2:08
like Steve Ray Vaughn and Dwight Melon.
2:10
That was fun and all. But like, I really like the
2:13
artists. When there's like evolution or
2:17
like a change, you know, they start out one way and then they
2:22
kind of. Move, move styles, move genres.
2:27
And Halsey's one of those artists that she's, she's kind
2:31
of all over she's she has ballads.
2:35
She has kind of like a trip hop beats.
2:40
She has hip hop, she has power, power pop.
2:44
So that's what drew me to her, and I thought she'd be a fun
2:47
artist to do because because she has that.
2:51
Broadness and that like Evolution as her albums go on.
2:56
So it is funny that you say that we'll get more into the
2:59
evolution of Halsey, obviously as this, this episode goes on.
3:03
But Hon, like my wife Kristen is our other panelist.
3:08
Maybe a month, month and a half ago.
3:09
Not that long ago you randomly said, hey, have you done Halsey
3:13
yet? And I was like no and talked
3:17
like you immediately got excited.
3:21
Talk to me about like, what was exciting, about what was the
3:25
prospect here for for a deprogrammed on the Halsey.
3:28
Yeah, so Halsey never has been on my radar.
3:33
I knew literally nothing about her other than like the radio
3:37
tune she had. And I knew of a couple of them
3:40
that I really enjoyed just hearing her on the radio.
3:44
So I was familiar with her, who she was as an artist, and of
3:48
course the you know. One that everybody knows that
3:53
we'll talk about later. That's kind of, like, awesome,
3:57
but a little annoying. She does a lot of what do you
4:00
want Collabs? So, but no, I was listening to
4:04
just like a Spotify pop playlist and it played me a Halsey song
4:10
that I had had never heard. And I was like, oh, who's this?
4:14
I really like this. And I look and I was like.
4:17
Halsey the Bad at Love Chick. Like, because it didn't sound
4:22
like bad at like it didn't sound like the songs I was familiar
4:26
with of hers. So I was like, oh wow, OK, so I
4:30
went and listened to that. Actually, what I did first was I
4:33
went to her Spotify page. Her top five songs listed are
4:39
like not even her songs. One of, yeah, one of them is
4:43
hers, but the rest of them are collabs, as she's done with
4:47
people, with other artists. So I actually got really
4:50
irritated with that so and I went and listened to one of the
4:54
albums her, I guess it's is it her most recent one?
4:59
If I don't, if I don't have love, I want power.
5:02
Yeah, that's the newest. Yeah, So I listened to that one
5:05
and I was like, love, love obsessed.
5:08
So, and that's when I was like, have you done Halsey?
5:11
Because it's really irritating me when you go look up an artist
5:15
and what you're giving getting from the Internet is like not
5:19
their music. So and when you go to listen to
5:23
their music, it's it's really good.
5:25
So it's it's like I feel like she's been sort of done an
5:29
injustice in a way. So this was super like, I've
5:34
just felt like this was important and I was like, OK,
5:36
yeah, we, you have to do. Halsey and I've been obsessed
5:40
for the last month with her. Yeah.
5:42
And she doesn't use that word lightly Brian.
5:46
So I wanted. I want to dive into that before
5:48
like I I give my thoughts on on Halsey and and how we got here.
5:51
But like you really have kind of really like dove in on her.
5:55
Like not just the music. Like we've watched a lot of her
5:59
music videos. We've seen some of her
6:00
performances on SNL. We watched her.
6:03
I don't. Yeah.
6:04
We watched her episode where she hosted SNL too.
6:06
Yeah, so there. Wasn't much hosting going on,
6:10
but I won't. I won't criticize her that I
6:13
must sleep out. Probably wasn't her fault,
6:14
right? People must not have had had
6:17
sketches for but like, talk to me about like the things that
6:20
you discovered, cuz you clearly went from knowing nothing to
6:24
you. Yeah, you know a great deal
6:26
about her. Now I went back and I listened
6:27
to her whole discography without with literally knowing nothing.
6:30
I didn't know what she looked like.
6:32
I didn't know. I didn't know that her album art
6:35
covers was her because she looks totally different in every
6:40
single like art artwork. Like she's constantly changing
6:43
her look, constantly changing her hair, constantly changing
6:47
her style. If you want R&B, she's got it.
6:50
If you want just a pop ballad, she's got it.
6:54
She's like, she dances, she's gorgeous, like she is
7:00
everything. So yeah, I'm totally obsessed
7:03
with her at this point. I'm definitely like a big fan.
7:06
She's also, and I don't use the, I don't throw this around
7:09
lightly. She's an artist.
7:11
Yeah, you know, you don't always get it in her music, you know,
7:15
cuz she's still a pop artist, so there has to be like some candy
7:18
in there somewhere. Oh yeah, and there's plenty of
7:21
that. But like when you watch her
7:23
performances on SNL, like it's these thought out art pieces and
7:26
it's like, so you're getting, you're getting pop.
7:28
But here she is like painting while she's doing it.
7:32
So it's like it is this nice contrast And and Brian alluded
7:36
to the art of the growth, which is why I agree wholeheartedly
7:40
that this was, you know, I don't want to like hang, hang a word
7:44
like important because you know what after all you know it's
7:47
just three people talking about a musician that that they like.
7:51
But I do think while clearly she's had a ton of success and
7:57
and clearly a ton of people know her work.
8:01
I I do think that not enough do you and I I think it's it's
8:06
again I don't want to use the word important but I'm blanking
8:09
on on a better word but like let's let's give her some
8:13
flowers here like I I I think you know from the short time
8:17
I've I've been with her like 2-3 weeks now however long we kind
8:21
of put this in motion I I've grown to really appreciate her
8:25
somebody who I only knew and I didn't even know it was her from
8:29
that that Chainsmoker song that I hate.
8:34
So you know it is kind of interesting the the growth that.
8:37
Used to make fun of me over that, my love of that song.
8:40
You know, there's your song, you know, dumb, but so not dumb.
8:47
She doesn't have a ton of discog here but there there is a lot to
8:51
kind of go through here Brian. When when you're looking at you
8:54
know, I think it was 4 records when you're looking at this
8:57
discography, like how how did you go about picking your songs
9:01
for this? I kind of separated them.
9:06
So what draws me to Halsey is the like, haunting ballads.
9:12
So wherever like her voice just grabs, like it sounds like her
9:17
voice in the dark. So those songs always grab me.
9:21
So when I put it on my list, I tried to.
9:24
Have like the haunting ballads, the pop songs, the more trip hop
9:29
songs in the power pop. It's funny because I had my
9:32
daughter look at my list when I was done and I I I mentioned
9:37
this before that I kind of stopped listening to the radio
9:41
in like 2007. I just went by like iPod or
9:45
whatever. So she's looking at my listen,
9:46
she's like, you have too many singles.
9:49
And I said OK and she I, I go. I don't know what the singles
9:54
are. I have no idea.
9:57
I so I I I have no. So I'm going into this.
10:02
I don't know what songs were on the radio.
10:04
I have no clue. I only know which songs of so.
10:08
So I tried to like grab a couple of each style so we can kind of
10:15
have like a broad experience because she does have kind of a.
10:18
It's not just like cookie cutter pop music.
10:22
Absolutely. It's it's it's very and you know
10:25
she she had said that that last album she made is the album that
10:30
she always wanted to make. So like so I I kind of mean that
10:35
one a little bit because that's kind of the direction where
10:37
she's going. But yeah that's basically that's
10:41
basically how I did I I did, I did.
10:43
I didn't read out a couple. Single.
10:46
Because she told me that I had to and listened to a good job on
10:48
Mac Miller. So I listened to her.
10:51
But yeah, that's it. She could have been on here with
10:56
us. What the heck?
10:58
Right. Actually, her girlfriend was
11:02
gonna sign up for this, but then she forgot about it and I was
11:04
like, yeah, don't worry about it, but yeah, Well, if you're
11:09
listening, Alyssa, you are welcome back whenever you know
11:12
you know this. But Hon.
11:14
Yeah, I think she was, yeah. She was signing up for 21
11:17
pilots, I think, or something. Hon, how did you go about your
11:21
list? Like you've spent a lot of time
11:23
in a very a lot of a lot of time in a very short period with
11:27
Halsey. So initially, so I go about
11:30
doing my list and we've talked about this.
11:32
I always go about it really differently.
11:35
I'm very, very choosy right off the gate.
11:38
So like, even if I like it, I'll be like, well, you know, if I
11:41
want to add that one to my list, maybe I'll come back if I got
11:44
space. So almost always I make my list
11:48
and I've only got like 12 songs. And then I like have to go back
11:52
and go and say, oh shoot, what was that one song that I really,
11:56
really liked? Did you accidentally?
12:01
I guess I'm cut out here. I can't hear anything.
12:04
So I'm assuming you guys can hear me though, so I'll keep
12:07
going. So initially I started and I
12:10
don't do it like listening to the albums from like first album
12:15
to last either. I just did like a shuffle play
12:20
of songs. So I didn't know what album they
12:22
were coming from. I just if I liked it, it went on
12:24
my list and you know, it was pretty easy.
12:29
I'm not going to lie and like. I, I, I went through and I took
12:32
some songs off because I felt like they were saying the same
12:36
thing. Like there was a few songs that
12:38
I was like, OK, this one's basically saying the same thing.
12:41
This one's just done. I like this one better.
12:44
So I did have to. I did make a feel like last
12:47
minute changes, but Oh my gosh, her most recent album that If I
12:50
can't Have love, I want power. That is like my favorite album.
12:54
I love it. I love the artistry she did with
12:57
that one. Her whole premise behind it, she
13:01
just, you could tell she's kind of a changed person I guess
13:05
having a child and it's just kind of like put her in a
13:08
different mindset. But learning some personal
13:10
things about her made a lot of her music make more sense.
13:14
I was telling Justin Manic that album makes so much more sense
13:19
when I read was reading her Wikipedia and like Oh yeah, she
13:23
had a has had had a suicide attempt.
13:25
She was diagnosed bipolar. Like, oh, OK, Yep.
13:29
This makes a lot more, first of all, the being in the medical
13:33
field, I'm like, oh, well, it's titled manic, so I know what
13:37
that's about. Her album cover is like her with
13:40
a blue, like like she got punched in the eye or beat up.
13:44
Yeah, basically. But it's glittery.
13:47
It's a glittery black eye. So, you know, she's very, very
13:52
artistic. So I and I love that about her.
13:54
But yeah, putting together the list.
13:56
It was super easy. I I enjoyed it was a it was a
14:00
great great listen. It is a breeze.
14:02
Like her discography is a breeze to listen to.
14:04
And so like I I do want to point out that I don't think it's all
14:08
that long. Do yourself a favor.
14:11
If you like anything about Halsey, you like anything about
14:14
our list. Just listen to the whole
14:15
discography. It is worth it.
14:16
Like I said it's a breeze to listen to There there isn't
14:19
anything rough. And I also need to echo the
14:22
sentiments. Her most recent record is a
14:24
banger like that. It is great.
14:28
I absolutely love that record and I absolutely could have put
14:33
everything through from that. But I do think that it is
14:37
critically important to Brian's initial point to show the growth
14:41
of how we got. There.
14:43
So like, while I think I easily could go here, listen to this
14:48
and go backwards, I could have easily done that.
14:51
I wanted to showcase Okay. Here's where she started.
14:54
Here's the little bit of growth on this record, here's a little
14:57
bit of this growth on this record, and here's the
15:00
masterpiece. And it also one thing I I want
15:03
to note about the most recent, It has me really excited about
15:06
what could be next because there's there's a lot of notes
15:11
of Tori Amos, a lot of notes of of La Rue, like just a lot of
15:18
promise. You know, we went through this
15:20
with with Taylor Swift a little bit.
15:22
Like I think the possibility of her taking that Taylor Swift
15:29
turn versus where like I feel like she's most of her career
15:34
been in this like you you mentioned in between Pink and
15:38
Ke$ha. Yeah, that's what I initially
15:40
was getting right. And I don't think, I don't think
15:43
that's totally off base either like at least musically like you
15:46
know, lyrically is different like she definitely, I think,
15:49
but I I think she could be turning a leaf towards like that
15:55
that Taylor Swift thing. And it really it excites me that
16:00
I think that was my favorite part about that that most recent
16:03
record is how much it excited me about what's next, her next
16:07
chapter. So all that to say that this
16:11
could go anyway based on this conversation.
16:14
So Brian, what do you think for the final say?
16:18
How many do you think we're going to get through?
16:20
Man, I've got a short disc on three people.
16:24
We're all gonna have our favorites.
16:26
This could almost be like a like a episode with MPG, Man.
16:36
You know, I'm just gonna go the easy route.
16:38
I'm just gonna. I'm just gonna say five.
16:41
I think. I think I must split it.
16:43
Yeah, I mean that. Yeah, you can never go wrong
16:46
within the middle. You know, there's some expansive
16:48
discographies that feel like, yeah, that's probably only like
16:51
two or three, but a discography like this five's probably a safe
16:54
bet. What do you think?
16:56
I'm gonna be super optimistic and say 7.
17:00
Okay. All right, well, now comes the
17:04
gamesmanship. Do I go in between you and take
17:08
six? Do I?
17:09
I. Left you a hole there on
17:11
purpose. Yeah.
17:12
Do I 8 feels like too much. I I don't think it's out of the
17:17
realm, but eight feels like too much, four feels too little.
17:20
So do I take that in between is the question?
17:25
Or do I count on us finding different song?
17:29
Like, you know, maybe Kristen cut a song that I kept because
17:33
they said the same thing and I just leaned towards one song.
17:36
She said. She leaned towards something
17:38
else, which could find us in a A4 very easily, but it feels too
17:46
low. I'm going to take four.
17:47
I don't like it. I don't like it.
17:49
I'm going to take 4. All right, we're going to take a
17:52
quick pause and when we come back we want to play the game.

the hustle today. With that, the name of the game
18:37
is deprogrammed. The three of us have come
18:39
through Halsey's discography and have plucked out 20 songs that
18:43
we're now going to mash together in an attempt to get a top ten
18:45
circuit for you, in case you have never given Halsey a
18:50
chance. And I don't usually do this, I
18:53
don't usually skip the first album, you know, I tend to go
18:57
first song, first album, because I like like the tone center of
19:00
that. I don't think Halsey is that
19:02
kind of artist. You know I I think it is it with
19:06
with her. I want to start with where I
19:08
locked in. I almost don't care if I get
19:11
anybody else here. I think this song like lyrically
19:15
is great. I think I just it it it does a
19:20
lot of stuff that I like about Halsey without being overly
19:24
poppy soundwise and I'm like I said this is where I locked in
19:29
100 letters. I've.
19:30
Got that one? I yes, yes.
19:34
Oh, thank God, I was worried about that one.
19:38
Yeah, I shouldn't have been. I should have known.
19:41
The Cream Rises, what it What's that first line?
19:45
It's like King Midas put his hands on me.
19:50
Yeah. And like he said, he'll turn me
19:52
to gold and she's like, but I don't.
19:56
But I've never let him touch me anymore.
19:59
And then like like that those lyrics.
20:05
Are exactly what I want from her.
20:07
And, you know, like, it's not like the music's bad, but it's
20:10
just not all that poppy. But it also is.
20:16
God, I'm having sex just so good.
20:30
Yeah, I was. From then on I was like yeah, Oh
20:35
yeah, OK and cuz that's the second, the second song on the
20:39
second record. So like already my perception
20:43
after that changed on her. So like you know cuz the first
20:47
album is kind of like this. I don't not generic pop it it's
20:52
but it is a pop record and yeah this let me know that expect
20:58
something else going forward and I was like oh OK, cool like.
21:02
And it does change right off the bat with that sophomore record.
21:05
Yeah. All right, Brian.
21:10
OK, OK, so I'm gonna take a swing only because, OK, so the
21:16
reason this is a swing is because we didn't have an
21:19
official playlist and there's a song on the latest album.
21:27
Which is not on the original but is like a digital digital bonus
21:33
track. I didn't have original like, so
21:36
I'm like, oh, we don't have an official playlist so I don't
21:38
really know if they could listen to that song.
21:40
And my wife and my daughter said this song is way too important
21:43
to not put on there. That song is the final track on
21:47
the digital. It is a nightmare.
21:51
Oh, Nightmare. Yeah, I didn't know that was not
21:54
on the original. I have nightmare.
21:56
Yeah. I do too.
21:59
That's Yeah, that's might. Need to be an.
22:01
Argument for #1 right there. That's good.
22:04
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Both my wife and Doris and this.
22:08
I mean, I me too. They're like this one's way too
22:10
important to not have on there, even though, but I said, but I
22:13
don't know what, I don't know which version of that album they
22:16
listened to because we didn't have.
22:17
That's a key list, so I'm just going with it.
22:21
Yeah, this one was definitely gonna be a fight for #1 for me.
22:28
Awesome. Yeah, it's just too essential.
22:30
Yeah, you already know. Well, I heard.
22:34
This is one of the few songs that I heard you listening to
22:38
that. I didn't know if you had it or
22:40
not. I didn't know, but I heard it.
22:42
Didn't tell by me, like rocking out to it in the car, okay.
22:46
But I'll tell you like, it didn't matter if you had it or
22:50
not. This was gonna make my list.
22:51
Yeah, that opening line. I take a record of the wreckage
22:55
in my life. I was like, fuck yeah, I'm in.
22:58
And the way it explodes in. So, like this is that nice
23:01
marriage of this is definitely a pop song.
23:05
Right. But again, it's the lyrics that
23:09
that brought me to the dance. I There was no way.
23:12
This was not making it. There was no chance.
23:14
And like giving a glance over our official list or our
23:20
technically official list, it wasn't on there.
23:23
But like I when I heard it, I looked up the lyrics to see what
23:27
song that was, cuz I wanted to make sure I heard it and make
23:30
sure it was going to make my list.
23:31
So yeah. Yeah, there was no chance.
23:39
See, I'm telling you I'm being, I was right to be optimistic.
23:45
All right, there's two down. I have to actually write it in
23:50
because technically it wasn't on our list.
23:56
All right, Kristen. I'm gonna, I'm gonna just take
23:59
it down to her when I heard from the first album and go with a
24:05
single and I think this is her like breakout hit and that was
24:10
New Americana. No, I sadly got it.
24:17
I got it. I got it.
24:21
This is one of those songs where like I knew it was a single.
24:24
I remember hearing it and I remember going rolling my eyes
24:27
at Raised on Biggie and Nirvana and I was like, but I I think
24:32
this is a good. I think this is a good base to
24:35
set. That's why I kept with it.
24:38
I was like, this is a good, this is a good example of of her
24:42
early work. This is.
24:43
A good intro song, right? For her and I I I think single
24:47
be damned, like it. It does.
24:50
It does what? It's a great introduction.
24:52
I wouldn't fight for this to be #1 or anything, but to make it
24:55
on the list. I think, I think could could
24:57
easily. All right, let's see.
25:05
You know I mentioned Tori Amos before so I'm going to, I'm
25:11
going to throw out the the Tori Amos Vibes I heard.
25:14
I heard this and that was like, yeah, I initially had to look
25:18
and make sure I wasn't listening to a Tori him a song.
25:21
And I was like, shit, she can do that too.
25:24
Fucking A The tradition. Yeah, yeah.
25:29
Yes, thank God. Yes.
25:32
I mean you. Could just put.
25:33
That whole album and just go put it on the list, yes.
25:40
It has that like it's like 10th. But it but the tension like
25:45
never breaks. Like it doesn't go anywhere.
25:48
There's not like, there's not like a release of that tension.
25:52
Just builds and builds and builds the whole song.
25:55
Then it's over and you're like oh that was awesome.
25:58
Yeah, yeah. And you know again just like and
26:01
I don't mean just because the the piano and obviously she
26:05
doesn't sound like Tori Amos. Like you know that that's not a
26:08
knock. She's her own person.
26:11
But if you talk to her and she said no, I love Tori Amos, I'll
26:14
be like, yeah, I get it. Because I want to hang on here
26:19
for just a second, because this part, like you said, the
26:25
tension, it just keeps rising and rising and rising and
26:28
rising. And there's no release for it.
26:31
Yeah, like it just keeps rising and rising.
26:33
Like, it's so good. Yeah.
26:41
And then it's also like the discordants there, like as she's
26:44
coming back into the verse, like the the piano note is like just
26:49
a little like sharp. I think it's like, ah, it's just
26:53
a a small musician touch like that.
26:55
I heard that I was like, ooh, I like that.
26:59
Alright, Brian. Alright, let's jump albums here.
27:07
Let's go to. Castle Yeah, I have that one.
27:13
Me too. Hold on.
27:15
I was like, shoot. Yes, I.
27:15
That I cut it. I was like, let me Scroll down.
27:18
Yeah, I got that. One Wow this might be.
27:22
That's the one I sent to you initially, isn't it babe?
27:25
Yeah, 4 4 already. So again, look, you're gonna be
27:31
able to get me with a track one album one more often than not.
27:36
And when I heard this, this did send me, set me up for what
27:41
Halsey is. I do think there's better like
27:45
better representation as far as like you know, the number one
27:49
overall. But you listen to this and you
27:53
go okay. It automatically sets you
27:55
somewhere like it's it's pop, but not quite like it's just
27:59
underneath. I just like that it's from
28:03
Badlands, but you wouldn't necessarily know because it
28:07
could have fit. And any of her albums, the style
28:10
of it, you could just tell us her style, you know?
28:13
So I think it's a good song choice to have on this list for
28:18
that reason. All right, so far so good.
28:24
Where do you wanna go, Hon? I'm gonna go to Manic and go
28:32
with Clementine. No, I do.
28:38
I got it. All right.
28:44
It's just different. It's different like it it it's
28:48
it's very and it comes off the back of Ashley which after
28:52
herself yeah the song about self and so like you're as I'm
28:58
listening to Clementine and I I it's the the hook part.
29:03
I don't need anyone and then like I.
29:05
Just need everyone and then some and then some, and then like the
29:08
second time through, like there's a lair go back.
29:11
Right. Yeah, don't need.
29:14
Anyone. Yeah, it's like her yelling at
29:15
herself. Yeah, and I've done that.
29:19
Like, there's a stale song called Stereophony.
29:22
At the end of the song, it's it's me going fuck you, fuck
29:27
you, fuck you. And then the next line is shut
29:30
me up. Yeah, like I'm yelling at
29:32
myself. Myself.
29:33
Yeah, like. I mean, I'm not trying to
29:36
compare myself to all of it here, but yeah.
29:38
Yours is a little more aggressive, yeah.
29:41
Your purse is a little more aggressive, Yeah.
29:44
Anyway, all right, it's got two, so it's still open.
29:48
Look at us, Hon. No, the way we're going with our
29:51
these three for three, these twos might not make.
29:54
It Yeah, I know Okay. Well, where do I go now?
30:00
I never trans get too. I forgot to mark that off.
30:05
Shit. I mean it worked when I made the
30:07
Tori Emma's reference. Let's try out the La Rue
30:10
reference. This one was was on the cusp
30:14
because there's other songs on the record that I think I
30:18
technically like better, but I liked the this, this, like the
30:23
music, like I liked the style. So that's why I went with it.
30:27
Girl was a gun. Yeah, I've got that one.
30:31
I do all right. So another two.
30:36
All right, girl, is it gone? Definitely gave me LaRue size.
30:44
I don't know who that is. I.
30:45
Didn't get. That.
30:47
That's another artist that we did together, Justin.
30:50
I just got more. Like I didn't.
30:51
I didn't get Tori Amos vibes from the I didn't get.
30:55
I got no vibes, but Halsey, good for you.
30:58
You were locked in. I was very much locked in,
31:01
unfortunately that that is something that I do a lot of and
31:04
I know for me that's a good thing.
31:06
It's natural for you because you listen to so much music.
31:10
I mean, I get that, well, for me, like sometimes, like, I
31:14
don't know, sometimes it can be bad.
31:15
Sometimes it can be like, OK, well this is going to check me
31:17
out. But but when I'm already growing
31:21
on an artist and then they toss in something that is like Tori
31:26
Amos is like, Ohh fuck yeah. And then La Rue in the same
31:29
record. I'm like, what the fuck?
31:30
Yeah, yeah. But it it really gives me
31:34
bulletproof vibes like the the beat is very like bouncy like
31:39
that. So all right.
31:42
So girl was gone was me. Brian, it is your turn.
31:48
Okay. So I have like a number one
31:51
favorite song and I've been holding it off on it.
31:56
Yeah. And it's from the latest album,
31:59
The Lighthouse. I do not have that one either.
32:04
I don't either. From what I understand though,
32:07
we must be wrong. And this is of course.
32:11
I love that songs. I literally tell you that song
32:13
like twice every day. This is of course off the
32:17
record, that we've all kind of stated that you could start
32:21
there. It is also is one of the answers
32:24
that we got when I asked the audience what's essential.
32:28
Ohh, really. The lighthouse was one of them.
32:31
I I was really surprised that there were so many because I I,
32:35
I like, read those things all the time.
32:37
And usually, like, I don't have an answer, so I have no idea who
32:40
the band is. But I was like, I was like, wow,
32:43
look at all these answers. Like one guy just broke, you
32:45
know, Curtis was like just used the entire last album.
32:48
Yeah, but I will say like what I will say and This is why I
32:54
didn't pick this one. And you know, more on this.
32:58
Probably later, I might be shying my hand a little, but
33:02
this record and this song specifically made me go man, I
33:06
wish. I wish she would join up with
33:08
like a traditional rock band and do like a traditional rock
33:13
record. I think that's one of the
33:14
reasons I didn't pick it is it's too much of an outlier of a
33:19
song. I mean, I mean, again, like, I
33:25
loved it, but I was like, you know, do I direct somebody to a
33:28
Halsey rock song? But it definitely, like, made me
33:31
excited to go, man, who could I pair with?
33:34
Like, pair with the pumpkins? Like, I'd be really interested
33:38
in hearing that. Like, like, Brian mentioned,
33:41
like her haunting stuff is kind of some of her best.
33:44
Who else is haunting but The Smashing Pumpkins writing
33:46
fucking Goth Westerns and shit Like?
33:50
Yeah. So yeah, PJ Harvey it's her and
33:54
her and PJ Harvey and do something together.
33:57
Oh God, you know, don't. Get started on that.
33:59
We just did Sparkle Horse, which had a PJ Harvey song.
34:03
I was like, be Still my heart. Yeah, what?
34:09
I mean, you threw out your favorite one out there.
34:13
I have like 2 that I haven't mentioned yet that I'm like man,
34:18
like I don't know which one I like more.
34:20
So hold me down. Yeah, I got it.
34:26
No, cut it. That one.
34:29
Almost. Every song, you every song you
34:31
mentioned was so I had the hardest time.
34:34
I had like 38 songs originally and then like getting it,
34:38
getting it down from 24 to 20. I was impossible.
34:45
But I don't know. I somehow did it.
34:48
Have we missed each other at all yet?
34:49
Hun, I think we're like in a rockstep.
34:53
That's crazy. You guys are on the level.
34:55
It's like we're married or something.
34:57
I know, right? Something like that.
35:00
Something I'm gonna cheat code here.
35:03
I knew this was a single obviously, I actually hated it
35:06
when it came out. But when you hear it in the
35:09
context of the record, when you hear it in the context of the
35:12
artist, I was like, it gave me a whole new light on it.
35:16
And I kind of, even if even if it doesn't land, I kind of want
35:20
people to go back and listen to it.
35:22
Because it's one of those songs that it's like it it just kind
35:26
of got lost on on pop radio and you kind of fuck it bad at love.
35:31
Yeah, I've got that one. No, I don't.
35:37
No, no. That's one.
35:39
That's one of the ones that, listen told me to cut because
35:41
she said I had too many singles. That's actually what I.
35:45
I actually knew her from was the bad at Love Chick.
35:49
So, like, I knew that that song was gonna be on my list, you
35:54
know? Again, I just.
35:56
I like that Take I'm bad at love and let's write a song about it.
36:01
Like, I don't know, like. Specific examples.
36:04
I like that. Oh, I AM.
36:06
And not only do I like that, but I think that is very indicative
36:09
of the kind of artist she is. So, all right, Brian.
36:15
All right, all right. Well, I'm gonna go with the
36:20
single then, because when the singles that I did have on
36:23
there, which I think is the only one I knew, was actually a
36:27
single without me. Yeah, I've got that one.
36:32
Me too. I actually had a couple songs
36:35
that are kind of saying the same thing as without me.
36:38
But when I went back I was like. Yeah, like when I was given that
36:41
example earlier, I'm like that was one of the examples and
36:44
without me is just done. Really well.
36:51
I love how R&B like this is one of her most R&B.
36:55
Songs. Too.
36:57
Yeah, it's got that. It's got that trip upbeat in the
36:59
background that, yeah. Yep.
37:02
But it's but it's good. Yeah, let me do something real
37:07
quick, 'cause see if that does the thing.
37:17
There we go 5. This is one I never.
37:25
I never disliked, to be honest. So, all right, all right.
37:30
There's five. Let's leave it there so I can
37:32
put the lighthouse on the list. All the way through.
37:33
You know, right, we can't get. I mean, the good news is my my
37:40
undercutting of four is already out the window.
37:43
You know what? We've had so many of the same
37:45
ones. I'm like, which ones have we not
37:46
mentioned? Because most of the list is now
37:49
already been mentioned. All right.
37:53
Is it my turn? Yes.
37:54
Oh, OK. So that graveyard.
38:00
Yeah. Just spin.
38:01
Yes, yes. Love it.
38:07
I mean, Simply put, cuz sometimes they'd be like that.
38:09
Wow. Yeah.
38:10
I just have to say that. I did not see this coming.
38:13
It's true. I did not see it so many.
38:19
Let that see again. Well, again.
38:23
I found myself trying to cover as much ground with her as I
38:26
could. And you know, there's going to
38:28
be some misses here coming up. Like there's no way that this,
38:33
this rate keeps up. But this is another another
38:38
sound, Another like, how much sound have we already shown with
38:42
her in just the six songs that we've gotten through?
38:47
All right, so graveyard was you I'm going to go to.
38:55
I just, I couldn't, I could not bring myself to cut this one.
39:01
So I'm I'm gonna go with this one.
39:03
How about Devil and me? No, no, that was ours.
39:09
No, that was that was in my 24 that I had to make a decision.
39:15
I don't know something about it when I just screamed Halsey to
39:19
me. Yeah, I can't really argue
39:29
against any of these. Yeah, all.
39:33
Right. I can't.
39:34
That's. A1 There is no that song.
39:38
Yeah, yeah, there's none that I feel like that, right?
39:41
There really aren't, No. I mean, you could make the case
39:45
something should be through from the first record, but like that
39:48
is the closest to it gets is that first record.
39:52
And even those are all good. Yeah, like you can make a case.
39:54
Yeah. All right, Brian.
39:58
Yeah. And we got, got, yeah, we got
40:02
three on Castle. So we're good.
40:06
Let's go. All right, so I have a valid, a
40:12
acoustic guitar. Valid. 11/21.
40:18
Nope. No, not me either.
40:23
You and I are the ones, the only ones missing.
40:29
Hello, this song is gorgeous. This song is literally gorgeous.
40:36
Yeah. Again, this whole album.
40:39
So I know, I know. And like I said, I commit a case
40:43
for any song on that. Yeah.
40:45
I yeah. If we could just have that
40:47
album. Listen.
40:50
For the listeners out there, like you don't even have to
40:53
listen to our top, our list we come up with.
40:56
You could just listen to that album if you're good, like if
41:01
I'm being honest. You should hear the growth.
41:04
You should hear the growth. I'm just kidding, but I'm just,
41:07
you know, I'm just putting that out there anyway.
41:09
All right. Where do you wanna go, Hon?
41:12
I'll do. I'm just gonna go and order.
41:14
There is no rhyme or reason to what I'm saying, but the next
41:18
song on my list is Colors. Yeah, I got that, Okay. 2 Boy, I
41:27
wanna call shenanigans on you guys.
41:34
I swear we listen separately. I listened in the line, the pick
41:40
up line, waiting for my son so. And I don't go with him.
41:45
Yeah, I stay home and watch TV while he's picking our children
41:50
up or I'm sleeping. How is that?
41:57
3456 I only got 7 left, so maybe we do a couple more rounds here
42:02
and then just dump out the next one on my list.
42:05
I'll go back up to the top here. Sorry.
42:08
No, yes. Hey, all right.
42:12
Yes. Hey, we finally hit one.
42:13
I know, right? And two, there we go.
42:17
At least it didn't like it didn't go under the dumpster.
42:20
I'm good with that. I'm.
42:22
Gonna throw at my fevers and if you're gonna do that.
42:25
All right, Brian. All right.
42:30
Let's go haunting. That's the first.
42:35
Album No. Nope.
42:38
Nope. No.
42:43
Reason. Just no room.
42:46
Yeah, I understand. Yeah, I tried to keep like 4.
42:49
I mean, I don't know if album representation is, I mean I
42:53
guess important, but semi, I tried to go like four or five
42:57
songs. Yeah, because even even her her
43:00
albums like jump all over with like genres.
43:03
So but I try and keep like four or five off each album.
43:08
Oops, I drop my pet. All right.
43:12
Ya, Bernie, Ya Bernie, I don't know how you say it.
43:16
Yeah, I got that. No.
43:18
I got. That Dang it, I was hoping
43:21
that'd be a three for three. They can't all be, Dang it.
43:28
I mean, they could like there was one time we got 13-3
43:31
unanimously, and that was a pain in the ass.
43:34
You send me to Cut 3, so that wasn't very fun.
43:37
Yeah, that's. All right, back to me, I.
43:48
Actually feel kind of good about.
43:51
I'll tell you this, my son has a lot to do with why I kept this
43:55
one. It's a very good song.
43:57
But it's got Marshmallow on it, so I kind of had to keep it be
44:00
kind. Yeah, I have that one on my
44:02
list. No, I don't.
44:06
I I I always specifically cut it because in in the past you had
44:12
been you had cut like features. Yeah, like, you know, you still
44:17
I was like, she won't have that. Well, I also just love.
44:22
Still her song? It's just marshmallows, like,
44:24
yeah. Yeah, produce it.
44:26
But I I also just like anybody telling anybody to be kind to me
44:32
is we need a lot more of that, so.
44:34
Yeah, I I I like it as a song, so.
44:38
All right, Brian. Well, how about is there telling
44:42
people to be kind? You tell people you should be
44:45
sad. Yeah, I got that.
44:49
I think that was the one I just cut, like right before the show.
44:55
Yeah, I had it on my list, but I cut it.
44:58
Well, I told you about my part of what really turned me off.
45:06
There's like a performance she did and she just represents
45:10
herself as like a cowgirl and she's dancing around, you know,
45:15
on stage. People in scantily clad cowboy
45:18
outfits. And I was like, I'm totally
45:21
turned off from this song now, so.
45:27
All right. It's your turn, huh?
45:32
Let's go with heaven and hiding, yes?
45:38
Yeah, me too. All right.
45:39
There it go. All right.
45:44
Heaven. That's on the 2nd or 7.
45:53
We sure are. Wow.
45:56
You might. You should have went for the 8
45:58
babe. Yeah.
46:01
Well, that's what I was gonna say is, I don't know.
46:05
I only have two left. Oh really?
46:08
Yeah, I have 123-4567. Five.
46:16
We gotta have some that match up then.
46:19
Brian. We've got 2, yeah.
46:21
Cuz I have like 6 I think. Really.
46:23
Yeah, guys 7. Just let me make sure here that
46:29
I've not. No, we've gone over all these.
46:33
I've only got 2 left, so I'm just gonna dump my two out here.
46:37
See if I find you guys Lilith. Yes, No.
46:45
And darling. Yes.
46:49
I'm sorry, no, no. We just must have, we just must
46:56
have been on the same wavelength when we listen to these.
46:59
I wanted all of those. I wanted honey, I wanted you
47:02
asked for this. I wanted, like, I wanted to put
47:06
every song from that album on my list, if I'm telling the truth
47:09
here. So that's me.
47:11
And that was what 7 did? We hit the seven.
47:15
We hit the seven. All right.
47:17
So, Brian, dump out yours and see if we can make our
47:21
conversation any harder. All right, Walls could talk.
47:27
No. So you guys didn't go for the
47:32
lighthouse, so I doubt you have Easier than lying.
47:37
Nope. That is another one, which is,
47:40
which is, which is even more power pop.
47:43
Yeah, all right. Don't play.
47:49
No finally, Beautiful stranger. That one was #21, just so you
47:59
know, like, I really like that one.
48:03
It's really good 3:00 AM. No.
48:09
Wow. Eyes closed.
48:13
Nope. Wow.
48:17
Control. Yeah, I think I have that one.
48:21
Yes, I've got control. Okay, I've got two.
48:24
I got one more left drive. I do not have that one.
48:31
Drive was one that like I almost put on my list at the when I was
48:35
listening before. Before everybody came in this
48:38
room, All right. Yeah, I was gonna say.
48:41
Just for fun, Hon, You wanna dump out?
48:43
I think I just have two that have not been mentioned.
48:48
We didn't say Darling already, did we?
48:50
Yeah, we did. All right.
48:52
So, yeah. Strangers.
48:55
No, not that one. OK, so strangers.
48:58
And then that's it. That's the only one I got that
49:03
we have not already talked about.
49:06
So. Seven is our number.
49:10
We got 7 through unanimously, which means Hon, we will have
49:14
the final say. Have you gotten the final say
49:15
yet? I don't think so.
49:17
I don't know. So now comes the hard part.
49:21
We've got two twos that we get to put through and then Kristen
49:26
gets her final say. So I was.
49:29
Going to say what is it? Okay.
49:30
So what do we? All right, here's.
49:33
So we're putting 2 twos through. Yeah, so we've got.
49:38
Hold me? Hold me down.
49:38
We're all discussing that together.
49:41
New Americana. Colors control.
49:43
Sorry. Bad at love, Clementine.
49:46
You should be sad. Be kind.
49:49
Lilith Girl is a gun, darling. Ya Burnett.
49:54
Yeah, darling. And ya Burnett is the last one.
49:57
That's a lot. All right, so let me read off
50:02
what we got here so we can start making.
50:03
Some We're going to have to appeal to Brian because most of
50:07
those are going to be a new babe.
50:11
Well, we've got so here's what we got through already.
50:13
Castle 100, Letters Heaven and Hiding Graveyard Without me, the
50:17
Tradition and Nightmare. I mean, initially I'm looking at
50:24
New Americana as something that we could probably drop at this
50:27
point. I feel like I'm.
50:29
OK, with that. It's it's the populist of the
50:31
bunch and it I think it is a great tune.
50:34
It is great introduction but like shit we've we've gone to
50:38
like bit. We've gotten bigger and better
50:40
songs through unanimously. So the way I feel about the
50:43
singles in general is this is what I have to say about that.
50:47
If, if, if what our goal here is, is to people that have never
50:51
thought of, given Halsey a chance, this is, this is what
50:54
we're going to do, these songs are like.
50:56
If you've heard it and you were like, then why am I going to put
51:00
that on this list if that didn't already get you into her?
51:04
So obviously a new Americana like that was a big one that was
51:08
a big hit her, you know, a breakout song for her.
51:11
If you if that did not get you from the jump already, then I'm
51:16
not putting it on this list. She can be better represented.
51:19
This is one of those instances where I think if we only hit
51:22
like four or five, maybe I could make a case for New Americana.
51:26
We only have three spots left. I know.
51:28
So it's like it's. True.
51:29
I don't want to waste one. You know, I say waste, but I
51:32
don't. I don't want to use one of those
51:33
last three spots on the Americana.
51:35
I think. I think we can do better.
51:36
I'm down with that. Yeah.
51:38
All right. So I agree.
51:39
Is there something that's jumping out at you, Brian, that
51:42
you feel like you feel like maybe either you missed that or
51:47
either one of us missed that feel like I miss Yeah.
51:54
The lighthouse wrong this time. I I said there's a late cut.
52:00
I probably should have taken Clementine.
52:03
I probably should have taken Hold me down and bad at love.
52:12
I'm looking at me too. Me too.
52:18
I love all I look. Clementine.
52:20
Hold me down. Bad at love.
52:22
You should be sad. That's that sounds so good.
52:26
I have all these songs if I had to take.
52:32
This is the I do wish I couldn't play the time in my list.
52:38
Okay. So let's get Clementine, then
52:41
let's grab that, make our round out our list a little here.
52:46
All right, so. And now I'm starting to look at
52:51
something like be kind as as an outlier.
52:54
I'm feeling like we can probably lay that down again like single
52:58
it's different it's but I feel like a lot of my choice a lot of
53:03
my choice was because marshmallow and because Leon.
53:05
So it's so let's lose be kind make our conversation a little
53:11
easier here going forward. I do think like.
53:16
I do think like the the leaders in the clubhouse here are
53:18
holding me down and bad at Love for sure, because we do.
53:23
Do we have that like more direct pop going yet?
53:30
Hold me down, hold me down. Throw me in the deep and watch
53:35
me drown, yeah? I I like vibe on that.
53:38
One, I love that song. I vibe on it, so I just make an
53:43
argument for that one. And we don't have, I mean.
53:47
Her voice, that my point of that was like, man, her voice comes
53:50
out in that one, I think. I think it does.
53:53
Anyway, it showcases her voice. And you know, I know we talked
53:57
about album representation not mattering, but at least that
54:00
puts another one from Badlands through, you know, just again to
54:04
showcase where she started. That's true.
54:08
How do you feel about that one, Brian?
54:10
Hold me down. I I mean I'm pretty much good
54:14
with any of these twos like I am like I this this I told you this
54:20
was the this was the hardest list I've done so far This was
54:25
grueling this was really tough. So let's do anything that's a
54:29
anything that's a one anything that that like one of you guys
54:33
said that no one else. I.
54:34
Know you're like, no, I it's two.
54:37
I know you're sorry. I mean, but like, yeah, like I'm
54:46
finally holding me down. I feel like Bad at Love kind of
54:49
gets the disadvantage here versus Hold me Down specifically
54:53
because Bad at Love is probably if if if New Americana isn't the
55:01
song you heard. Bad At Love probably is, right?
55:04
So I think that's working against it here.
55:07
So I I think it's hold me down. So okay, So what?
55:11
What representation do we have here?
55:13
We got 22 from Manic, 2 from Hopeless Fountain, 2 from
55:18
Badlands, 3 from Badlands. We got two from Badlands, so
55:21
it's 33 from If I Can't Have Love 3 from Manic.
55:30
Am I looking at that wrong? Sorry.
55:32
Let's look at it. It's got 3 yard without me, okay
55:37
and. So we got good.
55:39
Three from manic, not three from me if I can't have love.
55:42
Okay. So we can have some more from
55:45
that one because we want more, right?
55:47
Well, so we're at. We're at our tenth choice.
55:50
Yeah. And that means it's solely
55:52
yours. Nobody can argue with you.
55:54
Whatever you pick, it can be one that's in the trash.
55:56
I would prefer it be one that's alive.
56:00
But you don't have to do that. Lots of people disappoint me in
56:03
that way. Okay.
56:07
All right. Scroll that down.
56:10
Sure. Gosh.
56:13
Yeah, I know. So much pressure.
56:15
I don't envy you. OK, hold on a second.
56:19
Let me listen. I just really like Lilith.
56:26
Yeah, does that belong here? Like, again, I'm not trying to
56:36
sway you. I'm just trying to.
56:37
Oops. I'm just trying to help you
56:41
think it out out loud. So to make a like a case for
56:47
Darling. So just guitar ballad haunting
56:55
voice like, yeah, she a little country.
57:01
Kind of. You can pick whatever you.
57:02
Want I know I'm just I. Don't want all to.
57:05
Be, like, pissed at my choice. I won't be.
57:08
I I'm honestly fine with anything from this list or
57:13
anything from this discography. I really AM.
57:19
Golly, well, I I took out You should be sad.
57:26
And I'm good with like throwing that one back in.
57:31
I just wanted. I just feel like we need to put
57:32
another one from If I can't have love, I want power because.
57:37
Because we all we just love that entire album.
57:39
All of us too. I mean if if you're going to use
57:43
album representation, we have 3 from.
57:44
This is why I took You Should Be Sad is because it's basically
57:49
without me. It's the same song as without
57:52
me, just presented to us differently.
57:55
So I I removed that one and it's from the same album.
57:59
So I was just like, Nah, you know what I like without me
58:03
Better than you should be sad. So that was my reasoning behind
58:08
that. Also, I don't know where she was
58:09
going with this country vibe because she's from Jersey, so I
58:17
just wasn't really digging something about that didn't
58:21
resonate with me that that was her, like that that was coming
58:25
from her. I felt like that was more like
58:27
the production team creating that sound for her.
58:32
Not that I'm trying to argue, I'm just making.
58:35
Making, you know, statements about the artistry because I
58:39
want to talk about her and I want to talk about songs.
58:42
Anyway, you know what? I'm just going to go with my gut
58:46
and go with, oh, do we not have this one on our list?
58:53
Oh yeah, got it. Girl is a gun.
58:58
Girl is a gun. I thought it was on our.
59:00
List in my brain. I was thinking we already had
59:02
it. So yeah, there you go.
59:04
Decision. All right.
59:06
There's our final say. Let's sort this out and I'll
59:09
give you the final list here and then we can crank up the heat.
59:13
Okay. All right.
59:14
Thanks for helping me out with that one feel.
59:17
Like this is gonna go on forever and my wife is being indecisive.
59:23
All right, well, I just noticed that that was when you hadn't
59:26
said yet. And it checks the box of that
59:28
record. So.
59:30
All right, so we've got castle, 100 letters, Heaven and hiding
59:34
graveyard without me. The tradition Nightmare.
59:37
Clementine, hold me down. And girl is a gun.
59:39
God bless. That is a list.
59:43
All right, Brian, now it's got to get hotter in here.
59:47
Which one is the one? I don't think it's gonna get to.
59:52
This is not gonna be a fight. I think it's nightmare.
59:54
Yes, yeah. Yeah, I think.
59:57
So too definitely. I think so too.
59:59
I think we, I think we kind of spoiled at the top of the show,
1:00:02
but this is not gonna be an argument.
1:00:05
You would lighthouse. Even though it's huh, you would
1:00:09
lighthouse. That's me with nightmare.
1:00:10
It's like multiple times a day listening to it all.
1:00:15
Right, Yeah. That's easy sell.
1:00:18
You ain't gotta sell. Me Easy sell.
1:00:21
So there we go. Nightmare is our #1, rounding
1:00:25
out our 10 castle, 100 letters, heaven and hiding graveyard
1:00:28
without me through tradition. Clementine hold me down and girl
1:00:31
is a gun. Let's let Nightmare get a little
1:00:34
moment in the sun. I've tasted blood and it is
1:00:45
sweet. I've tasted blood and it is
1:00:49
sweet. God bless what a line she is.
1:00:53
Kind of. That song has everything.
1:00:55
Yeah. It has the power pop.
1:00:56
It has the trip pop beat in the in the verses it it has
1:01:00
everything saying something. I wish she talks about two
1:01:05
fingers. I wish I could come that part.
1:01:09
Yeah, yeah. That's deep.
1:01:12
Coming from a woman like I see her, she's just this talk about
1:01:17
so much. She's talking about looking at
1:01:21
yourself and not liking things, but also loving yourself and
1:01:26
telling other people to fuck off.
1:01:27
Yeah, well there we go. We have done it and I promise
1:01:31
you if you listen to this list you will like Halsey.
1:01:34
Like I think I think it's critically important on a
1:01:38
musical level that you change your mind about about people
1:01:42
from time to time. More than that, maybe on the
1:01:44
after the fact, which you can get by going to patreon.com/oh
1:01:48

1:01:50

panelists on certain lists, tell them how wrong they are about
1:02:52
whatever songs you can come yell at us about, you know, missing
1:02:55
the lighthouse. Because I get the feeling
1:02:57
Brian's not the only one. Yeah.
1:03:01
So have fun with that. That'll be fun.
1:03:03
You know, I welcome the debate. It'll be a good time.

this point, but it will happen. I enjoy having new voices on
1:03:30
this program. Brian was a new voice on this
1:03:33
program just last November and now he's a pretty regular voice
1:03:36

1:04:30
more if you're listening on Spotify hitting the five star
1:04:32
review, that would be cool. Listen on Apple podcast.
1:04:35
Five stars and a comment saying, hey, I like the program, that'd
1:04:39
be awesome. But the absolute best way to
1:04:41
help this show is by telling somebody that you listen to
1:04:43
deprogrammed. Hey, I listen to deprogrammed
1:04:46
and you could too. I'd very much appreciate that
1:04:48
More than words could ever say. And with that, Halsey, learn
1:04:52
them and love them. People will learn her and love
1:04:54
her people. We'll see you next week.
1:04:56
Goodbye.
