- 2:39SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 2:42SPEAKER_05: He's always first, I don't know.
- 2:44SPEAKER_05: You know, and I'm always like, I always have to make him laugh because I love making the guy laugh.
- 2:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 2:48SPEAKER_05: Because even it's the stupidest joke, he'll laugh for ten minutes about it.
- 2:52SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
- 2:53SPEAKER_05: So he was like, Oh, your your A1C number has looked very good.
- 2:57SPEAKER_05: It's normal.
- 2:57SPEAKER_05: And I said, you know, I've never been called normal, so this is awesome.
- 3:01SPEAKER_05: He laughed for like five minutes.
- 3:03SPEAKER_05: He just kept looking at me, go, he laughed.
- 3:06SPEAKER_05: I was like, Man, I love this guy.
- 3:08SPEAKER_08: That's awesome.
- 3:09SPEAKER_05: So it was good.
- 3:10SPEAKER_08: Um, I had a doctor's appointment last week, actually.
- 3:12SPEAKER_08: There you go.
- 3:13SPEAKER_08: It was a physical.
- 3:14SPEAKER_08: Um, and my doctor explained to me how uh because I was I was expecting, you know, a physical.
- 3:21SPEAKER_08: Like, yeah, exactly.
- 3:24SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 3:24SPEAKER_08: Uh and he said, I just want to explain to you uh how we do these now.
- 3:28SPEAKER_08: Um we don't do that.
- 3:32SPEAKER_08: So it's like you know what I mean?
- 3:34SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 3:35SPEAKER_08: He he said they stopped doing that.
- 3:36SPEAKER_08: He says because the the uh uh data showed that it was actually more harmful than uh producing any results.
- 3:46SPEAKER_05: Who would have thought sticking your finger up somebody's butt was harmful?
- 3:50SPEAKER_08: Who would have known?
- 3:51SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 3:52SPEAKER_08: But yeah, I gotta say I was a little disappointed.
- 3:54SPEAKER_08: No, I'm just kidding.
- 3:55SPEAKER_04: There goes my weekend.
- 3:59SPEAKER_04: So yeah.
- 4:00SPEAKER_05: So I Well they the I don't know if you know, because you know, and now we're at that age where you know colonoscopies are you don't even have to have a colonoscopy, you can do a stool sample.
- 4:11SPEAKER_08: Well, sort of, yeah.
- 4:13SPEAKER_08: He does it, he he said um he asked me if I wanted it.
- 4:16SPEAKER_08: I said, I'm gonna think about it.
- 4:17SPEAKER_08: I'm gonna I'm gonna do it when I'm fifty.
- 4:18SPEAKER_08: I know uh you know, or in in when I turn fifty.
- 4:20SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 4:21SPEAKER_08: Um but he said, you know, we can do he doesn't do the uh strips anymore because he says those aren't really reliable, they're like 73% of the five.
- 4:29SPEAKER_05: No, no, you gotta you gotta send in a a sample sample.
- 4:32SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 4:32SPEAKER_05: In a in a tube.
- 4:33SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 4:33SPEAKER_08: And then they compare them.
- 4:34SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 4:35SPEAKER_08: And and and they combine the data that they get from both of them.
- 4:38SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 4:38SPEAKER_08: Anyway.
- 4:39SPEAKER_08: DNA plus you know, blood.
- 4:41SPEAKER_08: Right, you know, whatever.
- 4:43SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 4:43SPEAKER_08: So this is a good conversation.
- 4:45SPEAKER_08: So uh this is very musically centered.
- 4:48SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 4:50SPEAKER_08: Colonoscopies and speaking of getting older, this kind of segues into the next thing.
- 4:55SPEAKER_05: Well, there we go.
- 4:56SPEAKER_05: See?
- 4:56SPEAKER_05: We knew what we were doing.
- 4:57SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 4:58SPEAKER_08: So not uh ultimate classic rock, you know, who we love.
- 5:04SPEAKER_08: Uh because some of the things.
- 5:06SPEAKER_08: Well, love is a strong word.
- 5:07SPEAKER_08: This is true.
- 5:08SPEAKER_05: I I strongly like them.
- 5:09SPEAKER_08: We we get in here with really nothing to talk about, and they give us content, so it's good.
- 5:13SPEAKER_08: At least we give them credit.
- 5:14SPEAKER_05: Well, they're like the silent partner of our podcast.
- 5:17SPEAKER_08: It's true.
- 5:17SPEAKER_05: You know, they're like it's like O'Brien and Doug and Ultimate Rock and Rock.
- 5:21SPEAKER_08: So they have an article.
- 5:23SPEAKER_08: U2 is coming out with a new album.
- 5:27SPEAKER_08: Uh and it's and I don't know how I feel about it.
- 5:30SPEAKER_08: I mean, I feel a couple of different ways about this.
- 5:35SPEAKER_08: So they're getting older.
- 5:41SPEAKER_08: And I know that uh Larry Mullen, the drummer, said that he's probably not gonna tour anymore.
- 5:49SPEAKER_08: I and I can't I can't remember what it was, but no, I mean they're you know but Songs of Surrender comes on St.
- 5:57SPEAKER_08: Patrick's Day.
- 5:58SPEAKER_08: Um it's a new album featuring reinterpretations of 40 classic songs from their catalog.
- 6:09SPEAKER_08: So they're taking 40 songs of their own that they've already released and reworking them.
- 6:16SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 6:17SPEAKER_08: So they got nothing new.
- 6:19SPEAKER_08: Exactly.
- 6:19SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 6:20SPEAKER_08: But also, because if you remember well, actually, let me just uh let me just go here.
- 6:28SPEAKER_08: Uh where was it?
- 6:30SPEAKER_08: Where was it?
- 6:30SPEAKER_08: Where was it?
- 6:31SPEAKER_08: Did I get rid of it?
- 6:32SPEAKER_08: I didn't.
- 6:32SPEAKER_08: No, I didn't.
- 6:34SPEAKER_08: Somebody else did this.
- 7:06SPEAKER_08: So obviously that's Bon Jovi.
- 7:09SPEAKER_08: Um and this if you recognize this talk, it's also Bon Jovi.
- 7:17SPEAKER_08: I have a theory as to why they do this.
- 8:21SPEAKER_03: What was that?
- 8:23SPEAKER_08: They released an album called Who was this?
- 8:26SPEAKER_08: Um Yeah, you would ask me that.
- 8:29SPEAKER_05: Well, yeah, I was curious.
- 8:31SPEAKER_05: I don't remember because you never mentioned it before now.
- 8:34SPEAKER_08: I I've never mentioned that?
- 8:36SPEAKER_08: No.
- 8:36SPEAKER_08: Probably because I want to forget it.
- 8:38SPEAKER_05: Well, I don't blame you, but uh yeah, I thought you would have mentioned it at some point, you know, because you're you know, you're you're a big Bon Jovi guy, so I was.
- 8:46SPEAKER_08: Um I I own this album.
- 8:49SPEAKER_08: Uh maybe but I will tell you Is it on the wall of tunes?
- 8:53SPEAKER_08: Uh it might be somewhere.
- 8:55SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 8:56SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 8:56SPEAKER_08: But here's the thing.
- 8:58SPEAKER_08: I I own the album, but it's not in my iTunes.
- 9:02SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
- 9:02SPEAKER_08: Uh I have all the other Bon Jovi albums in my iTunes.
- 9:05SPEAKER_08: This came out in 2003.
- 9:08SPEAKER_05: That long ago?
- 9:09SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 9:09SPEAKER_05: Wow.
- 9:10SPEAKER_08: So it was right after Crush.
- 9:12SPEAKER_08: Crush came out in 2000.
- 9:14SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 9:14SPEAKER_08: With It's My Life and all that.
- 9:16SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I think that was the last Bon Jovi album I bought.
- 9:18SPEAKER_08: Have a Nice Day was okay.
- 9:21SPEAKER_05: Yeah, but it was too much like Crush.
- 9:22SPEAKER_08: It was a lot like Crush, yeah.
- 9:24SPEAKER_08: But yeah, Crush is probably my last one.
- 9:26SPEAKER_05: Yeah, that was the last one I ever.
- 9:28SPEAKER_08: Really good Bon Jovi album.
- 9:30SPEAKER_08: Um but I uh no, I understand why they a couple of things I th I should say I uh f philosophize as to why they're philosophy.
- 9:44SPEAKER_05: Philosophies.
- 9:47SPEAKER_08: So two things.
- 9:47SPEAKER_08: We don't bon Jovi, John Bon Jovi can't sing anymore.
- 9:49SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 9:50SPEAKER_08: I mean he can but he can, but he can't.
- 9:51SPEAKER_08: He right.
- 9:52SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 9:53SPEAKER_08: So this gave them a uh segue into well basically you can cover yourself.
- 10:01SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 10:02SPEAKER_08: Singing a different way.
- 10:03SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 10:04SPEAKER_08: Um in a lower register.
- 10:07SPEAKER_08: And obviously they're not gonna play these versions, you know but they could if they had to.
- 10:13SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 10:14SPEAKER_08: Right?
- 10:14SPEAKER_05: Well, I mean that was something you you would do if it were doing like a live acoustic show.
- 10:19SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 10:19SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 10:20SPEAKER_05: So like remember MTV Unplugged.
- 10:22SPEAKER_05: Right, exactly.
- 10:23SPEAKER_05: Something like I don't think they do that anymore because MDV MTV doesn't play music.
- 10:28SPEAKER_05: True.
- 10:28SPEAKER_04: But uh they should change the name.
- 10:31SPEAKER_04: Um should be CTV.
- 10:34SPEAKER_05: Crap TV.
- 10:36SPEAKER_05: Um no offense to Canadian TV, the real CTV.
- 10:40SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 10:41SPEAKER_08: So let's see, let's see if I can find another one from this from this Left Feels Right, not that I want to.
- 10:48SPEAKER_08: Uh But any, you know, the other thing is cre that's creative.
- 10:54SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I mean reimagine your own song.
- 10:57SPEAKER_08: Right, which is kind of a neat thing.
- 10:58SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 10:59SPEAKER_08: And not everybody's gonna like 'em.
- 11:02SPEAKER_08: Like that, like this this left feels right.
- 11:04SPEAKER_08: Some of them work, uh a lot of them don't.
- 11:09SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 11:10SPEAKER_08: But this is them getting creative and uh trying to flex that muscle.
- 11:17SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 11:18SPEAKER_08: Uh while also reintroducing a lower singing register.
- 11:22SPEAKER_08: And the reason I say that is because uh you two songs of surrender.
- 11:30SPEAKER_08: Uh this is just a trailer, but you'll recognize this song.
- 11:34SPEAKER_08: The heart is blue.
- 11:38SPEAKER_01: Beautiful dead up through the listen how low he's singing.
- 11:42SPEAKER_01: Now this no space to rent in this town.
- 11:49SPEAKER_01: You thought you'd found a friend to take you out of this place.
- 11:57SPEAKER_01: Someone you could lay ahead in return for grace.
- 12:04SPEAKER_01: It's beautiful day.
- 12:13SPEAKER_08: Now there are a lot of people that hate this song in this album that it came off.
- 12:17SPEAKER_08: I like it.
- 12:18SPEAKER_03: I mind it.
- 12:19SPEAKER_03: I like this song.
- 12:19SPEAKER_03: I like it, yeah.
- 12:22SPEAKER_08: Actually, in that that whole album wasn't bad.
- 12:25SPEAKER_05: I have a weird relationship with Cousin Bono.
- 12:27SPEAKER_08: I was gonna say, you're related to Yeah.
- 12:29SPEAKER_05: So I uh I mean I don't like everything that they do, but I I like them overall.
- 12:35SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 12:35SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 12:36SPEAKER_05: Yep.
- 12:36SPEAKER_05: So it's just uh I'm the same.
- 12:38SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 12:38SPEAKER_08: I liked I liked um Joshua Tree.
- 12:42SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 12:42SPEAKER_08: And the one that was before it was what wasn't bad either.
- 12:44SPEAKER_08: I can't remember what it was.
- 12:47SPEAKER_08: But Rattle and Hum.
- 12:48SPEAKER_08: A Chung Baby, and that was Octoung Baby was was okay.
- 12:52SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I liked it though.
- 12:53SPEAKER_08: Yeah, there were I mean there was uh even better than the real thing, and that was and uh Yeah, there was some good ones.
- 12:59SPEAKER_08: But then they and like Pop uh was was an album that was not good.
- 13:04SPEAKER_08: Uh and there was was it uh Zootopia?
- 13:10SPEAKER_08: No, it wasn't it wasn't Zootopia, that's a movie.
- 13:12SPEAKER_08: It was uh Zeropa.
- 13:14SPEAKER_05: Zeropa or something like that.
- 13:15SPEAKER_05: Yeah, that was weird.
- 13:17SPEAKER_08: That was weird.
- 13:18SPEAKER_08: It was it was his bug eye phase, you know, where he was wearing the bug eye glasses.
- 13:21SPEAKER_05: Yeah, well apparently that's for his cataracts or whatever he's got going on.
- 13:26SPEAKER_08: Yeah, I don't know.
- 13:26SPEAKER_05: He's got some sort of vision problem anyway.
- 13:28SPEAKER_05: But uh I you know, I don't know.
- 13:31SPEAKER_05: I I mean I get it.
- 13:34SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I get why you would cover your own songs.
- 13:36SPEAKER_08: I'm gonna play another one for you.
- 13:38SPEAKER_08: Because they get there's two, uh there's two on here, what it is.
- 14:00SPEAKER_05: In the name of love.
- 14:02SPEAKER_01: It's pride in the name of love.
- 14:04SPEAKER_05: But listen to how low he's singing.
- 14:05SPEAKER_05: Yeah, he's singing like a berry white.
- 14:07SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 14:08SPEAKER_05: One man comes either.
- 14:10SPEAKER_08: This is not to say that he can't hit the register anymore, because I mean Jovi can't, but he probably could.
- 14:16SPEAKER_08: He probably could, but he doesn't want to.
- 14:18SPEAKER_05: Yeah, he shouldn't.
- 14:19SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 14:20SPEAKER_05: You know, if he wants to keep going.
- 14:21SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 14:22SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 14:23SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 14:23SPEAKER_05: So singing like this makes complete sense, especially especially at his age.
- 14:28SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 14:29SPEAKER_05: And he still sounds great.
- 14:30SPEAKER_05: I mean it's I mean, I I don't know how Sammy does it.
- 14:33SPEAKER_08: Oh, I don't either.
- 14:34SPEAKER_05: I mean, he's way older than these guys.
- 14:36SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 14:36SPEAKER_08: Oh yeah.
- 14:37SPEAKER_05: He's still screaming in a bottom laughing.
- 14:40SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 14:41SPEAKER_08: So anyway, so this album, Songs of Surrender, it says it's 40 songs, so I'd imagine it'd be some sort of box set type thing.
- 14:49SPEAKER_05: Oh, it'd have to be, yeah.
- 14:50SPEAKER_05: It's gotta be at least two, three CDs.
- 14:52SPEAKER_08: Uh let's see, I'm trying to see when it comes out.
- 14:55SPEAKER_05: You said St.
- 14:55SPEAKER_05: Patrick's name.
- 14:57SPEAKER_08: Oh yeah, that's right.
- 14:57SPEAKER_08: I did say that.
- 14:58unknown: One more.
- 15:00SPEAKER_04: See, I pay attention.
- 15:01SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you do.
- 15:02SPEAKER_04: Sometimes.
- 15:03SPEAKER_04: My ADD is not that bad.
- 15:04SPEAKER_04: Squirrel!
- 15:06SPEAKER_08: Alright, so so I mentioned that that uh a lot of people did not like that record uh of U2's.
- 15:14SPEAKER_08: Uh All That You Can't Leave Behind.
- 15:16SPEAKER_08: The one with uh Beautiful Day on it.
- 15:18SPEAKER_03: Oh, right, yeah.
- 15:19SPEAKER_08: I liked it.
- 15:19SPEAKER_08: I didn't mind it.
- 15:20SPEAKER_08: I didn't like the Bon Jovi album, This Left Feels Right.
- 15:24SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 15:25SPEAKER_05: There were some, like I said, there were some that were I know you didn't like it because you've never mentioned that you even had it.
- 15:29SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 15:31SPEAKER_08: This is true.
- 15:32SPEAKER_08: Um it was just it was just a weird project.
- 15:36SPEAKER_08: It was just a weird thing.
- 15:37SPEAKER_08: And I and I I really I was in love with that band for such a long time.
- 15:42SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 15:42SPEAKER_08: And I think it was after See, I was I was with them for Have a Nice Day.
- 15:48SPEAKER_08: Even though it wasn't my favorite album.
- 15:49SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 15:50SPEAKER_08: Like I said, Crush was probably um the the last really good album I thought.
- 15:56SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 15:56SPEAKER_08: Have a nice day was okay.
- 15:58SPEAKER_08: And then the stuff that they put out after that, it was just it was just yeah.
- 16:04SPEAKER_05: There was no soul left.
- 16:06SPEAKER_08: And it all s kind of sounds the same.
- 16:08SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 16:08SPEAKER_08: You know, it's just this like pop rock thing that they were doing.
- 16:11SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 16:11SPEAKER_08: I again still trying to say stay relevant.
- 16:13SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 16:14SPEAKER_08: You know?
- 16:14SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 16:14SPEAKER_08: Um and we talked about this last week, I think.
- 16:17SPEAKER_08: You know, you can't really fault John Bojovi for that.
- 16:19SPEAKER_05: But no, I wouldn't fault, you know, as much as I don't care for it, you don't fault a band for expanding.
- 16:26SPEAKER_08: Evolving.
- 16:27SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 16:27SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 16:28SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 16:29SPEAKER_08: For sure.
- 16:30SPEAKER_05: You know.
- 16:30SPEAKER_05: You mean you you either like it or you don't.
- 16:32SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 16:33SPEAKER_08: You know.
- 16:33SPEAKER_08: So another list here from ultimate classicrock.com rock's most hated records.
- 16:42SPEAKER_05: I I I s I was on Amazon and I found I found the perfect notebook for us.
- 16:48SPEAKER_05: Notebook?
- 16:49SPEAKER_05: Yes.
- 16:49SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 16:50SPEAKER_05: It says grievance journal.
- 16:53SPEAKER_05: I was like, man.
- 16:54SPEAKER_06: Statler and Waldorf.
- 16:56SPEAKER_05: We need I I bought one just because it was like five bucks or something.
- 16:59SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 17:00SPEAKER_05: So I I'm just like, yeah, we can write, you know, everything we hate in it.
- 17:05SPEAKER_05: You know, my I figure, you know, when I get, you know, you know, my rants and you know, my my manifesto that I eventually will get around to writing someday.
- 17:16SPEAKER_07: Right.
- 17:17SPEAKER_05: You know.
- 17:17SPEAKER_05: Um yeah.
- 17:18SPEAKER_05: That'll be it'll be in that.
- 17:19SPEAKER_05: It'll be like, oh, grievous journal.
- 17:21SPEAKER_05: I bet this is full of sunshine and puppies.
- 17:25SPEAKER_08: Um so Rock's most hated records.
- 17:29SPEAKER_08: Now, some of these, I think I told you before we started that you're gonna agree with and some you'll disagree with.
- 17:36SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 17:37SPEAKER_08: Um, and I'm just gonna go right down the list and I have some of them prepared.
- 17:40SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 17:41SPEAKER_08: Uh to uh all ready to go here.
- 17:44SPEAKER_05: So this you did preparation?
- 17:47SPEAKER_08: I did a little bit.
- 17:48SPEAKER_05: That's the antithesis of our podcast.
- 17:50SPEAKER_08: Well, when I saw this, I came down like 15 minutes before you got here.
- 17:56SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 17:56SPEAKER_08: And I saw that uh I saw that headline.
- 17:59SPEAKER_08: I was like, oh.
- 18:00SPEAKER_08: So I went through and I just kind of got all kinds of songs here.
- 18:04SPEAKER_08: So this is the first one that's on the list, and I do I agree with this one?
- 18:11SPEAKER_05: I don't hate this song, but I was as a record, as albums, or as songs?
- 18:17SPEAKER_08: There's both.
- 18:17SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 18:18SPEAKER_08: There's both.
- 18:19SPEAKER_08: This one happens to be a song.
- 18:20SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 18:21SPEAKER_08: Okay, so uh Aerosmith.
- 18:28SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 18:28SPEAKER_08: Uh is that I don't want to miss a thing.
- 18:30SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 18:31SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 18:31SPEAKER_08: So this was written.
- 18:32SPEAKER_08: I was gonna say Armageddon, but that's the movie.
- 18:34SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 18:35SPEAKER_08: This was written by Diane Warren.
- 18:36SPEAKER_08: So this was an outside song completely.
- 18:39SPEAKER_03: Oh, right, right, right.
- 18:41SPEAKER_08: And it was really outside of Aerosmith, too.
- 18:45SPEAKER_08: It doesn't sound I mean, it's because it's Steven Tyler.
- 18:48SPEAKER_05: Yes and no.
- 18:49SPEAKER_08: You think this sounds like Aerosmith?
- 18:51SPEAKER_05: Yes and no.
- 18:54SPEAKER_08: Is it because he's singing?
- 18:56SPEAKER_05: No.
- 18:57SPEAKER_05: Just I mean, they've always done like cool things.
- 19:02SPEAKER_13: Watch you smile.
- 19:03SPEAKER_05: Like not with strings, obviously, but you know.
- 19:07SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 19:08SPEAKER_08: I mean, I'm thinking Angel Trian, you know.
- 19:11SPEAKER_08: Yeah, but those were hard, you know, I mean they were power.
- 19:14SPEAKER_05: Yeah, but you know.
- 19:16SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 19:17SPEAKER_05: But like I said, you know, they're gonna evolve at some point and do something a little bit different.
- 19:22SPEAKER_08: True.
- 19:23SPEAKER_05: I mean, listen to Dream On.
- 19:29SPEAKER_05: I mean, this is this is obviously a pop song.
- 19:34SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 19:35SPEAKER_05: You know, done by a you know, a rock band.
- 19:39SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 19:40SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 19:40SPEAKER_05: But it's not the worst thing they've ever done.
- 19:43SPEAKER_08: Well, that's what I said.
- 19:44SPEAKER_08: I mean, I I don't hate it.
- 19:47SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 19:48SPEAKER_08: But it's not my favorite Aerosmith.
- 19:50SPEAKER_05: Oh no, no, not even.
- 19:51SPEAKER_08: And I think it's un I think it's uncharacteristic of Aerosmith.
- 19:54SPEAKER_05: But I don't know.
- 19:56SPEAKER_05: I think it was the beginning of you know them doing different stuff.
- 20:02SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 20:03SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 20:03SPEAKER_05: This was like the catalyst.
- 20:05SPEAKER_05: They were like, we did this and it was a huge success.
- 20:07SPEAKER_05: What else can we do that?
- 20:08SPEAKER_05: What else can we do?
- 20:09SPEAKER_05: That's the record label.
- 20:09SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 20:10SPEAKER_08: Oh, do that one again.
- 20:11SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 20:12SPEAKER_08: So yeah, so there's that.
- 20:14SPEAKER_05: So I don't hate it, but I it like I see like you said, I don't I don't it's not my favorite by far.
- 20:19SPEAKER_08: Uh also not a great movie.
- 20:22SPEAKER_08: I mean it was the movie was okay.
- 20:23SPEAKER_05: The movie was wasn't terrible.
- 20:25SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 20:25SPEAKER_05: I mean it had Ben Affleck in it and Bruce Willis and Liv, you know, Steven's daughter.
- 20:30SPEAKER_19: Yeah.
- 20:30SPEAKER_05: You know.
- 20:31SPEAKER_05: I wonder if that's why they did it.
- 20:35SPEAKER_05: I wonder if Liv was like, Daddy, could you add a thong for my movie?
- 20:39SPEAKER_08: I bet you there was a there was a hook up there, I'm sure.
- 20:42SPEAKER_05: I bet, I bet that's what it was nepotism at its worst.
- 20:46SPEAKER_08: Um the other one, I don't know, I didn't I didn't bring this one up, but I'll mention it.
- 20:53SPEAKER_08: They have uh Allman and Woman to the Hard With Allman is Greg, whose band had broken up in 1976.
- 21:03SPEAKER_08: The Allman Brothers broke up in 76.
- 21:05SPEAKER_08: The woman is Cher, whose own career had spiraled downward by the mid-70s, to the hard way as the result of a mismatch union that hit the wrong notes personally.
- 21:15SPEAKER_08: Of course they they were married.
- 21:16SPEAKER_05: Alman and Cher?
- 21:18SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 21:19SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 21:20SPEAKER_08: So I didn't even I didn't even get any of those sound songs because I don't think.
- 21:25SPEAKER_05: Isn't that in Revelation?
- 21:27SPEAKER_05: Like one of the seven seals.
- 21:29SPEAKER_05: You know?
- 21:30SPEAKER_08: Alright.
- 21:30SPEAKER_08: Now this one I I think is a guilty pleasure.
- 21:35SPEAKER_08: I don't hate it.
- 21:37SPEAKER_08: But maybe it's because maybe it's because we were right in the middle of that of of this era.
- 21:45SPEAKER_08: Um I'll just play it.
- 21:56SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 21:56SPEAKER_08: It's the Beach Boys.
- 21:58SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 21:58SPEAKER_08: This is one of the most hated.
- 22:00SPEAKER_08: Really?
- 22:01SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 22:01SPEAKER_08: According to Ultimate Classic Rock.
- 22:08SPEAKER_08: Now it's nostalgia for me.
- 22:11SPEAKER_08: You know, I mean, I remember hearing this song on the radio and it brings back good memories.
- 22:16SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 22:17SPEAKER_05: I I always kinda like this.
- 22:19SPEAKER_05: Me too.
- 22:20SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 22:21SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 22:22SPEAKER_05: I mean, honestly, if you if you didn't know anything by the Beach Boys, you wouldn't even know it's the Beach Boys.
- 22:27SPEAKER_08: This is true.
- 22:28SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
- 22:29SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 22:30SPEAKER_08: Uh let's see.
- 22:31SPEAKER_08: They return to the top with this simple-minded ball of fluff.
- 22:35SPEAKER_05: Oh yeah, it is.
- 22:36SPEAKER_08: Tied to the Tom Cruise movie Cocktail.
- 22:38SPEAKER_08: Cocktail, yeah.
- 22:39SPEAKER_08: Uh Brian Wilson is nowhere to be found on this blemish to the Beach Boys extensive catalog.
- 22:45SPEAKER_08: Neither is any of the group's classic sense of style and grace.
- 22:48SPEAKER_08: So they really don't like it.
- 22:50SPEAKER_05: I guess not, but there's no such place as Kokomo.
- 22:58SPEAKER_05: But you know.
- 23:00SPEAKER_05: I think after this song, people were trying to book trips to Kokobo.
- 23:05SPEAKER_05: I want to go to Kokomo.
- 23:06SPEAKER_05: It doesn't exist.
- 23:07SPEAKER_05: Yeah, but the Beach Boys sang about it.
- 23:09SPEAKER_05: Well, it doesn't exist.
- 23:10SPEAKER_05: We can't make it.
- 23:10SPEAKER_05: You know, you could find some, you know, crap island in the Caribbean that used to be like some drug lord, you know, landing strip and call it Kokomo, and people would have got paid thousands and thousands of dollars.
- 23:21SPEAKER_05: Like that fire festival.
- 23:22SPEAKER_05: Remember that?
- 23:23SPEAKER_08: I'm stu I'm stuck on the fact that you said landing strip.
- 23:26SPEAKER_05: Well, yeah.
- 23:27SPEAKER_05: Drug lords use them, you know, like these these.
- 23:30SPEAKER_08: Mine went in the dirt.
- 23:32SPEAKER_08: Sorry.
- 23:32SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 23:33SPEAKER_05: But anyway, you know, like that fire festival.
- 23:35SPEAKER_05: Remember that guy, you know, he was gonna like get all these these kids, these millennial kids with money, and they were gonna like they were paying like thousands of dollars.
- 23:42SPEAKER_08: It was like fraud or something like that.
- 23:43SPEAKER_05: Oh yeah, because they show up and they got like, you know, survival tents from Hurricane Andrew set up that you know as their luxury thing, and none of the bands signed, you know, they you're like, you're paying like ten thousand dollars to go see blank 182.
- 23:58SPEAKER_07: Right.
- 23:59SPEAKER_05: What?
- 24:00SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
- 24:01SPEAKER_05: I mean, these I mean, just it's just the it's just endemic of the what you know the millennial mindset.
- 24:08SPEAKER_05: Oh, we're it's special.
- 24:10SPEAKER_05: We we could Instagram about it, and you know, we could we could make it a thing, and we're gonna go and feel this island.
- 24:17SPEAKER_08: These are the people that are paying five thousand dollars to see Taylor Swift.
- 24:19SPEAKER_05: Yeah, so you know, uh what is that saying?
- 24:22SPEAKER_05: A fool and his money are soon parted.
- 24:24SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 24:25SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 24:25SPEAKER_05: Well, there you go.
- 24:27SPEAKER_08: Uh the other Bye bye Cash! Another most hated album.
- 24:31SPEAKER_08: Um The Clash.
- 24:33SPEAKER_08: Cut the Crap.
- 24:35SPEAKER_08: Mick Jones was out.
- 24:38SPEAKER_08: Uh so Joe Strumber carried on with a new group, mostly bassist Paul Simon.
- 24:44SPEAKER_08: Uh bassist Paul Simon was still in the band.
- 24:46SPEAKER_08: Cut the crap, which mostly came off like a network TV version of a punk album.
- 24:50SPEAKER_08: I've not even heard this album, so I can't really.
- 24:52SPEAKER_05: I don't even I don't think I know that.
- 24:54SPEAKER_08: I can't say I like the colour.
- 24:55SPEAKER_08: Yeah, me too.
- 24:57SPEAKER_08: So I'm I'm not you know, I can't say either way.
- 25:00SPEAKER_08: Whether I agree with you.
- 25:03SPEAKER_08: Uh I could have brought it to that, but I could have got some.
- 25:09SPEAKER_08: Uh okay, so this one.
- 25:16SPEAKER_08: Alright.
- 25:17SPEAKER_08: This one is on the list.
- 25:19SPEAKER_08: This is a song, it's not an album.
- 25:22SPEAKER_08: This is one of the most hated.
- 25:32SPEAKER_05: Do you agree with this?
- 25:33SPEAKER_05: No.
- 25:33SPEAKER_05: I don't either.
- 25:35SPEAKER_08: I love this song, me too.
- 25:39SPEAKER_08: From No Jacket Required, it was number one all over the world.
- 25:44SPEAKER_05: Uh although I think the only live instrument on this song is Bill.
- 25:51SPEAKER_07: I think that's true.
- 25:52SPEAKER_05: I think everything else is electronic.
- 25:54SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 25:54SPEAKER_05: Zo.
- 25:55SPEAKER_08: Uh let's see.
- 25:58SPEAKER_08: It was number one all over the world, but that has not deflected all the hate hurled at the song in the three decades since its release.
- 26:05SPEAKER_08: The rolling downhill with no breaks synthriffe that tumbles throughout recalls Prince's much better 1999.
- 26:13SPEAKER_05: I guess he's done.
- 26:13SPEAKER_05: I never even thought of that.
- 26:14SPEAKER_05: I never even thought of that, yeah.
- 26:15SPEAKER_08: Which even Collins has acknowledged.
- 26:17SPEAKER_08: He claims the song is about a girl, but after all these years, nobody's really sure what the hell Susudio even means.
- 26:23SPEAKER_08: I thought it was just a word he made up.
- 26:25SPEAKER_08: I think it is a word he made up.
- 26:32SPEAKER_08: But I love it.
- 26:33SPEAKER_08: I do too.
- 26:34SPEAKER_05: I love this vlog.
- 26:36SPEAKER_08: Yeah, what do we know?
- 26:38SPEAKER_08: Apparently, not much.
- 26:41SPEAKER_08: Uh okay, so the next two um I don't have sound files for, so I'll just kind of uh Chris Cornell's Scream.
- 26:48SPEAKER_08: It was a solo album, away from SoundGarden.
- 26:50SPEAKER_08: It was his third solo album.
- 26:52SPEAKER_05: Uh but he Was it before or after Audio Slave?
- 26:56SPEAKER_08: That's a good question.
- 26:58SPEAKER_08: It must have been before.
- 27:00SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 27:01SPEAKER_08: Because according to this writer at Ultimate Classic Rock, uh he made a pop record with hip-hop producer Timbaland.
- 27:09SPEAKER_05: Really?
- 27:10SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 27:11SPEAKER_08: Uh so it didn't sound anything like a Chris Cornell record.
- 27:15SPEAKER_08: Bob Dylan Self-Portrait, which I actually have on vinyl.
- 27:19SPEAKER_08: Really?
- 27:19SPEAKER_08: Yep.
- 27:20SPEAKER_08: 60s greatest songwriter entered the 70s with a double album filled with cover songs, traditional numbers, and some half-ass originals that left most fans confused and ready to move on.
- 27:29SPEAKER_08: So I don't agree with that.
- 27:31SPEAKER_08: I like I like the album.
- 27:32SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 27:33SPEAKER_08: Emerson Lake and Palmer Love Beach.
- 27:36SPEAKER_08: Uh was the final album.
- 27:38SPEAKER_05: That's on Coca-Ma.
- 27:42SPEAKER_05: That's right.
- 27:42SPEAKER_05: That's why you'll find out.
- 27:43SPEAKER_08: Uh, final album before a lengthy hiatus is supremely terrible.
- 27:47SPEAKER_08: How could it not be?
- 27:48SPEAKER_08: Just gaze at that cover where the trio looks like they just stepped out of a Pablo Cruz album shoot.
- 27:53SPEAKER_08: And it's true.
- 27:54SPEAKER_08: You can see if you I don't know if you can see that.
- 27:57SPEAKER_08: This does not look like a progressive rock band.
- 28:01SPEAKER_05: That looks like a scene out of Miami Vice.
- 28:04SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 28:07SPEAKER_08: Yeah, so that was apparently one of the most hated uh albums.
- 28:12SPEAKER_05: I don't know anything about it.
- 28:14SPEAKER_05: Neither do I.
- 28:15SPEAKER_08: Neither do I.
- 28:20SPEAKER_08: I can uh you know uh respect.
- 28:27SPEAKER_08: Um the next one I don't agree with, but I don't disagree with.
- 28:44SPEAKER_08: I don't hate this song.
- 28:46SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 28:47SPEAKER_08: I haven't hated any of these so far that we've actually played.
- 28:50SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 28:51SPEAKER_08: And I don't hate this song.
- 28:53SPEAKER_08: I can see how some people would.
- 28:58SPEAKER_08: Billy Joel?
- 28:59SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 29:01SPEAKER_08: I love this song.
- 29:02SPEAKER_08: Me too.
- 29:03SPEAKER_08: I well, I don't say I I I love it, but I don't hate it.
- 29:07SPEAKER_05: I like it a lot.
- 29:08SPEAKER_08: Let me read this uh little write-up for you.
- 29:11SPEAKER_08: Billy Joel Borrowed Music, Rapid Fire versus Spounder Off, a la Bob Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues.
- 29:17SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 29:18SPEAKER_08: I think that's kind of a stretch.
- 29:19SPEAKER_05: That is a stretch.
- 29:20SPEAKER_08: And a lyric, pop culture references, ripped from headlines past and present, styles from REM's infinitely better, It's the End of the World As We Know It, and I feel fine.
- 29:30SPEAKER_08: Uh, which was released two years before.
- 29:32SPEAKER_08: But REM were still a cult band at the time, so Joel ended up with a number one single with this graceless and ham-fisted history lesson disguised as a deep pop song.
- 29:45SPEAKER_05: I I think they're being a little harsh.
- 29:47SPEAKER_08: I think they are too.
- 29:52SPEAKER_08: It does have melody.
- 29:53SPEAKER_08: It does, you know, and and it's catchy.
- 29:56SPEAKER_08: It is catchy.
- 29:57unknown: England's got a new queen.
- 30:09SPEAKER_08: I I probably wouldn't agree with anyone who criticizes Billy Joel.
- 30:14SPEAKER_05: I mean, you you could criticize Billy Joel as a person.
- 30:17SPEAKER_05: True.
- 30:17SPEAKER_05: But I mean as an artist, no.
- 30:19SPEAKER_08: No.
- 30:19unknown: Nah.
- 30:21SPEAKER_05: I mean, as is everything he's done been like gangbusters?
- 30:25SPEAKER_05: No.
- 30:25SPEAKER_08: Of course not.
- 30:26SPEAKER_05: But I mean.
- 30:27SPEAKER_08: But he's hit a lot more out of the park than.
- 30:29SPEAKER_08: Ah, yeah.
- 30:30SPEAKER_05: I mean, he's like the Willie Mays of frickin' music, man.
- 30:34SPEAKER_08: Kiss.
- 30:35SPEAKER_08: Music from the Elder.
- 30:36SPEAKER_08: Oh, yeah, true.
- 30:37SPEAKER_08: Yeah, that's terrible.
- 30:38SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I can agree with that.
- 30:39SPEAKER_05: That just sucks, butt.
- 30:40SPEAKER_08: John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
- 30:42SPEAKER_08: Yep, you just said it right there.
- 30:43SPEAKER_08: That's done.
- 30:45SPEAKER_08: Done.
- 30:46SPEAKER_08: Two virgins.
- 30:47SPEAKER_08: Unfinished music.
- 30:48SPEAKER_08: Did you just hit yourself in the face?
- 30:52SPEAKER_08: That's that's what I'm saying.
- 30:53SPEAKER_08: The thing is covered in foam.
- 30:55SPEAKER_08: That's what Yoko Ono makes you do.
- 30:56SPEAKER_05: She makes me hurt myself.
- 30:59SPEAKER_05: That's the name of this episode.
- 31:00SPEAKER_05: Yoko Ono makes Doug hurt himself.
- 31:04SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 31:05SPEAKER_08: So we are finally at.
- 31:07SPEAKER_08: Oh yeah, so I did mention it was uh two versions, right?
- 31:10SPEAKER_08: Yeah, that was unfinished music number one.
- 31:14SPEAKER_08: Anyway.
- 31:14SPEAKER_08: So we are finally at this one.
- 31:16SPEAKER_05: That's the one with the disturbing album cover.
- 31:18SPEAKER_08: Yes, it is very disturbing.
- 31:21SPEAKER_08: Let's see if you recognize that.
- 31:35SPEAKER_10: I am a chorus of the voices.
- 31:40SPEAKER_10: The gather of the madness.
- 31:42SPEAKER_10: That's before me.
- 31:49SPEAKER_10: I attracted.
- 31:53SPEAKER_10: Oh! This is uh this is Lulu.

- 36:19SPEAKER_05: I will?
- 36:20SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 36:39SPEAKER_08: But Keith and Mick Jagger were not getting along.
- 36:43SPEAKER_08: So was not going well.
- 36:45SPEAKER_05: So they punished each other by writing this song?
- 36:49SPEAKER_05: They wrote a bad album.

- 37:42SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 37:43SPEAKER_08: Um And they do put on a great show.
- 37:46SPEAKER_08: I mean I think half the They wouldn't be still around if they didn't.
- 37:49SPEAKER_08: I think, but I think half of it is uh in your head.
- 37:54SPEAKER_08: Because I think half of it is holy crap, this is the Rolling Stones.
- 37:57SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 37:58SPEAKER_08: And I'm seeing the Rolling Stones.
- 37:59SPEAKER_05: Yeah, they're still doing it.

- 38:01SPEAKER_08: And and they sound like a good, they're a good band.
- 38:04SPEAKER_08: And they have good stage presence, and Mick Jagger's Like I said, they still wouldn't be around if they weren't.
- 38:10SPEAKER_05: They didn't have that.
- 38:10SPEAKER_08: Now I'm a I'm a Beatles guy.
- 38:12SPEAKER_08: So but uh I I really I respect the stones.
- 38:17SPEAKER_08: Uh okay, so the next hated song has a great story behind it, and I don't hate it.
- 38:26SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 38:26SPEAKER_08: I don't care what anybody says.
- 38:28SPEAKER_19: We built this city.
- 38:31SPEAKER_19: We built this city on rock and built this city.
- 38:36SPEAKER_08: Now it's very 80s, and it's oh yeah, it's all electronic.
- 38:40SPEAKER_08: Yeah, the production.
- 38:41SPEAKER_08: The product very song, Richard Marks?
- 38:50SPEAKER_05: No, Kenny Loggins.
- 38:56SPEAKER_08: It does sound like a Kenny Loggins song, doesn't it?
- 38:57SPEAKER_05: It does, doesn't it?
- 38:59SPEAKER_05: Almost think you could put this on the Caddyshack soundtrack.
- 39:05SPEAKER_08: You know, can people don't they get lost in the production of this song, I think.
- 39:15SPEAKER_08: Martin Page uh was a songwriter and artist, actually.
- 39:20SPEAKER_08: He he wrote uh Alone for Heart.
- 39:24SPEAKER_08: Uh he also had uh his own album uh in the House of Stone and Light.
- 39:29SPEAKER_08: Great songwriter.
- 39:30SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 39:31SPEAKER_08: But the biggest thing was Bernie Toppin wrote the lyrics.
- 39:37SPEAKER_05: Really?
- 39:37SPEAKER_08: Yes.
- 39:38SPEAKER_08: Wow.
- 39:38SPEAKER_08: Bernie Toppin, the same guy that's written almost every Elton John song.
- 39:42SPEAKER_08: Yeah, I must say.
- 39:43SPEAKER_08: With Elton John.
- 39:46SPEAKER_08: Now there's a story behind this song.
- 39:49SPEAKER_08: Now, I'm we're not gonna tell it here because I don't want to take away the thunder of uh the Professor of Rock.
- 39:57SPEAKER_08: If you follow the Professor of Rock, go to YouTube, look up Professor of Rock and and uh Starship or We Built This City and listen to the story because it's it's pretty cool.
- 40:08SPEAKER_05: Uh I think I did hear that.
- 40:10SPEAKER_05: Yeah, there's a great background.
- 40:11SPEAKER_05: I don't remember it though.
- 40:12SPEAKER_08: There's a great background to this uh to this song, and apparently everybody hates it.
- 40:17SPEAKER_08: I don't hate it.
- 40:18SPEAKER_05: Of course, I've Marconi plays the Mamba.
- 40:24SPEAKER_08: Right.

- 41:09SPEAKER_08: It's super eighties and just uh cheesy.
- 41:13SPEAKER_05: Yeah, it is super cheesy.
- 41:15SPEAKER_05: And this was the demise.
- 41:16SPEAKER_05: And that's just that's just the way sticks rolls.
- 41:18SPEAKER_08: This was the demise of sticks, though.
- 41:20SPEAKER_05: Ah, yeah.
- 41:21SPEAKER_08: Because this was from Kilroy Was Here?
- 41:24SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 41:25SPEAKER_08: And if you watch the behind the music of Styx, does anybody know what behind the music is anymore?
- 41:33SPEAKER_08: Probably not.
- 41:34SPEAKER_08: It was a great show.
- 41:35SPEAKER_05: You mean the back of the CD?
- 41:39SPEAKER_08: Uh Styx turned into like a theater act.
- 41:44SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 41:44SPEAKER_08: All because of Dennis DeYoung.
- 41:46SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 41:46SPEAKER_08: He wrote all these songs like this.
- 41:49SPEAKER_08: So like they would open for Sammy Hagar or something like that, and then they or no, Sammy Hagar opened for them.
- 41:58SPEAKER_08: Or they were in the middle of the bill or something.
- 42:01SPEAKER_08: And they had to act all this stuff out.
- 42:04SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 42:05SPEAKER_08: And that was the crowd was not with them.
- 42:07SPEAKER_05: Well, why wouldn't you be enjoying it?
- 42:08SPEAKER_05: Exactly.
- 42:09SPEAKER_05: You came to see a rock show, man.

- 42:17SPEAKER_15: I like it.
- 42:18SPEAKER_14: I like it a lot.
- 42:20SPEAKER_08: Do you know what I think of right there though?
- 42:26SPEAKER_14: That little part.
- 42:27SPEAKER_08: You know what I hear there?
- 42:28SPEAKER_08: What?
- 42:29SPEAKER_08: What's that song?
- 42:30SPEAKER_08: Uh uh Barry Gordy's Kid.

- 42:47SPEAKER_04: Right?
- 42:47SPEAKER_04: Sounds just like it.
- 42:48SPEAKER_08: It does, doesn't it?
- 42:49SPEAKER_08: Anyway, that may have maybe just open up another can of worms.
- 42:52SPEAKER_08: Uh okay, so yeah, I guess I can understand why people would like uh Mr.
- 42:59SPEAKER_08: Rivado.
- 43:00SPEAKER_05: I mean it's gonna come sail away, but you know.
- 43:02SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 43:02SPEAKER_05: It's not terrible.
- 43:05SPEAKER_05: If we take it for what it's worth.
- 43:07unknown: True.
- 43:07SPEAKER_05: You know, we take it as it is.
- 43:10SPEAKER_05: It's a cool thing.
- 43:11SPEAKER_05: I like it.
- 43:12SPEAKER_08: Alright, the next one is an album.
- 43:18SPEAKER_08: Are you ready?
- 43:40SPEAKER_05: Do you know what it is?
- 43:41SPEAKER_05: Van Halen three.
- 43:44SPEAKER_05: This is uh how many say I?
- 43:47SPEAKER_04: I picked the right one, didn't I?
- 43:49SPEAKER_08: This is Eddie Van Halen on vocals.
- 43:53SPEAKER_08: A a substance In infused Eddie Van Halen.
- 44:03SPEAKER_05: Oh.
- 44:04SPEAKER_05: Infused with something.
- 44:09SPEAKER_08: But you know, there were some good parts of this album.
- 44:12SPEAKER_05: There were some good songs in it.
- 44:14SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 44:14SPEAKER_05: And this one, I mean, yeah, I I'm given a hard time, but there's there's parts of it that are terrible.
- 44:22SPEAKER_08: Well, the music is okay, I guess.
- 44:24SPEAKER_05: I think it's just the delivery.
- 44:26SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 44:27SPEAKER_05: Are you ever suicidal?
- 44:30SPEAKER_05: I think he was trying to beat Tom Waits.
- 44:35SPEAKER_01: Could you keep quiet when she needed up?
- 44:40SPEAKER_05: Was he drunk when he came this?
- 44:42SPEAKER_05: Too strong.
- 44:45SPEAKER_07: I don't know.
- 44:47SPEAKER_14: How many say I go on and say yes.
- 44:58SPEAKER_08: Alright, that's all I can do.
- 45:15SPEAKER_08: Sorry.
- 45:16SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 45:20SPEAKER_05: It's like if Van Hill was cutting an extreme song right.
- 45:23SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 45:24SPEAKER_05: This is a good talk.
- 45:25SPEAKER_05: This is I like this talk.
- 45:53SPEAKER_08: Do you notice that that anytime Van Halen they talk about Van Halen, they completely ignore this this album?
- 46:00SPEAKER_05: Oh yeah, I with good reason.
- 46:02SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 46:03SPEAKER_05: You know.
- 46:03SPEAKER_08: But it's like almost like they are erasing it from.
- 46:07SPEAKER_05: Well, I think if they had the choice, they would destroy the masters and every copy in existence.
- 46:14SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 46:17SPEAKER_08: There were some good moments, but yeah, it was it was rough.
- 46:20SPEAKER_05: Yeah, it was it was not good.
- 46:22SPEAKER_08: Uh let's see.
- 46:23SPEAKER_05: It was no bueno.
- 46:24SPEAKER_08: Yeah, at the time, no, that's for sure.
- 46:26SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 46:27SPEAKER_08: Let's see.
- 46:29SPEAKER_08: So this one I also disagree with.
- 46:32SPEAKER_08: Uh right there.
- 46:34SPEAKER_08: That's the one I'm on.
- 46:38SPEAKER_08: I d completely disagree with this.
- 46:40SPEAKER_08: I love this song.
- 46:41SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 46:45SPEAKER_05: Oh, it's Paul McCartney.
- 46:46SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 46:46SPEAKER_07: And wings.
- 46:47SPEAKER_05: Silly little love song, isn't it?
- 46:48SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 46:49SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 46:50SPEAKER_05: Well, I think it's made to be uh it's cheesy on purpose.
- 46:55SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 46:55SPEAKER_08: Well, Paul McCartney is cheesy on purpose.
- 46:58SPEAKER_05: But musically, it's it's a good song.
- 47:02SPEAKER_05: It's a great song.
- 47:10SPEAKER_14: I mean, yeah.
- 47:11unknown: Do do do.
- 47:13SPEAKER_14: I look around me and I see it in the soul.
- 47:20SPEAKER_11: Some people wanna feel the world, but they love socks.
- 47:27SPEAKER_11: And what's wrong with that?
- 47:32SPEAKER_08: I'd like to know Although this part is supremely cheesy.
- 47:50SPEAKER_05: Linda's back there somewhere.
- 47:56SPEAKER_05: Oh, wasn't there uh Isn't there like a isolated track of Linda Linda?
- 48:03SPEAKER_05: That's what I was just gonna say.
- 48:29SPEAKER_00: What's wrong with that?
- 48:33SPEAKER_00: I need to know.
- 48:38SPEAKER_11: You think that people would have had enough a silly laugh song?
- 49:28SPEAKER_00: You know, my loved one.
- 49:39SPEAKER_05: See that one wasn't wasn't terrible.
- 49:41SPEAKER_05: I've heard there's one out there though where she's just like off key and lucky the cat's hat.
- 50:11SPEAKER_05: Oh man, I have never heard that one.
- 50:14SPEAKER_05: That's that's small point.
- 50:21SPEAKER_05: She's kinda on tune.
- 50:26SPEAKER_08: And you have to this is deceiving because what you're hearing out front.
- 50:35SPEAKER_08: And because you're just hearing her.
- 50:37SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 50:37SPEAKER_08: And what she is singing, even though it sounds out of context, it's probably perfectly in tune with everybody else.
- 50:44SPEAKER_08: Probably, or close.
- 50:45SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 50:46SPEAKER_08: So that's that's a little unfair.
- 50:48SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 50:50SPEAKER_08: Anyway.
- 51:05SPEAKER_05: But she was never a singer.

- 54:08SPEAKER_05: Yeah, oh yeah.
- 54:09SPEAKER_08: But as I got older and I listened to his, and as he got older, actually, because he was all over the place, started, you know, with the Yardbirds, uh, and then and then did the Jeff Beck group.
- 54:21SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 54:21SPEAKER_08: With Rod Stewart, which would be like right here.

- 1:13:53SPEAKER_08: And you know, we have talked about this before, but I don't know that we've ever played the album.
- 1:13:58SPEAKER_08: Maybe maybe we have.
- 1:13:59SPEAKER_05: Now that I look at it, maybe we have.
- 1:14:03SPEAKER_05: Crap.
- 1:14:04SPEAKER_05: Higher popularity.
- 1:14:07SPEAKER_05: 70s.
- 1:14:09SPEAKER_05: Okay.
- 1:14:13SPEAKER_05: 70s.

- 1:14:41SPEAKER_05: Uh Holy Water?
- 1:14:42SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:14:43SPEAKER_05: Um, I don't know, to be honest with you.
- 1:14:47SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 1:14:47SPEAKER_08: So we did talk about how uh Paul Rogers left the band.
- 1:14:52SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:14:53SPEAKER_08: The the lead singer of that company.
- 1:14:55SPEAKER_08: And the record company uh decided they wanted to keep keep this band going.
- 1:15:02SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 1:15:03SPEAKER_08: Because they were a moneymaker.
- 1:15:06SPEAKER_08: And Simon Kirk and Mick Ralph drums and guitar, respectively.
- 1:15:12SPEAKER_08: Um decided Bos Burrell had d I think he had passed by then.
- 1:15:16SPEAKER_08: Bass player, I think.
- 1:15:18SPEAKER_08: Um they got a a new singer and a new producer, and the producer played bass on the album.
- 1:15:25SPEAKER_08: Actually, for the first this is the third album with this lineup.
- 1:15:30SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:15:30SPEAKER_08: So Brian Howe is on vocals.
- 1:15:33SPEAKER_08: This was the biggest hit that they had with this lineup.
- 1:15:37SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 1:15:37SPEAKER_08: Uh, and it's a great album, I think.
- 1:15:40SPEAKER_08: Uh, it doesn't sound anything like the original Bad Company.
- 1:15:43SPEAKER_08: Right.
- 1:15:44SPEAKER_08: But have we played these?
- 1:16:25SPEAKER_08: You know, that's what we should do.
- 1:16:30SPEAKER_08: You're writing down the bit the band that we do.
- 1:16:34SPEAKER_08: Should we do the album?
- 1:16:35SPEAKER_19: We should write down the album too.
- 1:17:00SPEAKER_05: Well, they're the first band on the list to have two check marks.
- 1:17:05SPEAKER_05: Which means this is the third time we've done bad company.
- 1:17:11SPEAKER_08: I don't know if I want to stop it right now and just do the other one.
- 1:17:14SPEAKER_05: Nah.
- 1:17:15SPEAKER_08: No?
- 1:17:15SPEAKER_05: Nah, we're up.
- 1:17:16SPEAKER_05: We we've already committed.
- 1:17:17SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 1:17:19SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 1:17:21SPEAKER_08: So.
- 1:17:22SPEAKER_08: I love this album.
- 1:17:27SPEAKER_08: I don't think I I would have had this over here if I had done it.
- 1:17:33SPEAKER_08: Because I try and keep them separate.
- 1:17:35SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:17:35SPEAKER_05: But well, I think we did a different couple.
- 1:17:39SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:17:42SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:17:42SPEAKER_05: This will be the first band to have two check marks.
- 1:17:45SPEAKER_08: Wait, they have two check marks now?
- 1:17:47SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:17:47SPEAKER_08: Okay.
- 1:17:56SPEAKER_08: This is a great song on a summer day with your windows down, cruising down the highway.
- 1:18:20SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:18:21SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:18:23SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:18:24SPEAKER_08: Yeah, it's thicker.
- 1:18:26SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:18:26SPEAKER_08: Yeah, it's thicker than the original bike.
- 1:18:29SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:18:30SPEAKER_08: It's eighties.
- 1:18:32SPEAKER_08: It's an eighties thing.
- 1:18:33SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:18:34SPEAKER_08: But listen to the chords.
- 1:18:35SPEAKER_08: I mean, it's just big.
- 1:18:46SPEAKER_08: It's just straight ahead rock and roll.
- 1:18:47SPEAKER_08: No, I got to know.
- 1:18:48SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:18:49SPEAKER_08: Uh this is a good one.
- 1:18:55SPEAKER_05: All the style was uh damn yankees for yeah.
- 1:19:03SPEAKER_08: I think this came out at the same time as Danny because they toured with Dan Yankees for a while.
- 1:19:08SPEAKER_08: Did they?
- 1:19:08SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:19:13SPEAKER_08: I almost think Brian Howe sang for Ted Nigend too before maybe it might have, I don't know.
- 1:19:39SPEAKER_08: And then they this was a big hit for them.
- 1:19:41SPEAKER_08: The ballad.
- 1:19:43SPEAKER_08: If you need it somebody.
- 1:19:44SPEAKER_07: Oh yeah.
- 1:19:45SPEAKER_08: This has a one of my favorite guitar solos, and it's nothing special.
- 1:19:50SPEAKER_08: I think we may have talked about this before, actually.
- 1:19:52SPEAKER_08: No?
- 1:19:56SPEAKER_08: This is a great song.
- 1:19:58SPEAKER_18: But I can't find the words.
- 1:20:03SPEAKER_08: And I think it's one of my favorite guitar solos just because of you know.
- 1:20:10unknown: But I don't have to.
- 1:20:11SPEAKER_08: It's nostalgia, because I remember where I was when I first heard it, right?
- 1:20:15SPEAKER_08: It's just so it's nothing special.
- 1:20:19SPEAKER_08: It's not a special guitar solo.
- 1:20:20SPEAKER_08: It just fits it all.
- 1:20:47SPEAKER_08: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 1:21:03SPEAKER_08: And you know, the other members, uh the original members, Simon Kirk and Mick Ralphs, who were in this band, were really not fond of this version of the band.
- 1:21:13SPEAKER_08: They're just doing it for the record company.
- 1:21:14SPEAKER_08: Uh contractually.
- 1:21:40SPEAKER_07: So again, nothing special, but it fits out.
- 1:21:42SPEAKER_08: It's tasty.
- 1:21:44SPEAKER_08: Tasty.
- 1:21:44SPEAKER_08: Tasty, that's a good word.
- 1:21:46SPEAKER_08: So there you have it.
- 1:21:47SPEAKER_08: Bad Company's Holy Water was the album that we picked this week.
- 1:21:53SPEAKER_08: And hopefully it's not the second time we've done it.
- 1:21:57SPEAKER_05: Uh if not, then we get to hear some good music again.
- 1:22:02SPEAKER_05: Yeah, exactly.
- 1:22:03SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
- 1:22:03SPEAKER_05: That's what it's all about.
- 1:22:04SPEAKER_08: Yeah.
- 1:22:05SPEAKER_08: I'll try and pick something else.
- 1:22:06SPEAKER_08: I'll put that in a different place now, hopefully.
- 1:22:09SPEAKER_08: So I so I don't forget.
- 1:22:12SPEAKER_08: All right, man.
- 1:22:14SPEAKER_05: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
