When Day Turns In To Night, Elder Emo Vibes and All Things CHF in WAITRESS Ep 23 · Galaxy Crashers: The Busted and McFly Podcast

0:00
Hey Galaxy Crashers, it's Tay. Just a little note from me
0:03
before we start. There was a little bit of
0:05
confusion with the ordering of the Busted album, so you are
0:09
probably expecting without you this week.
0:11
However, we didn't realise that there were actually 2 versions
0:14
of this album, one of them being slightly shorter than the other
0:17
and it actually skipped 2 of the songs, so we're going to add
0:20
those in. Make sure that you hear every
0:22
single Busted song from beginning to end.
0:24
So this episode is going to be when day turns in tonight.
0:27
Keep your eyes and ears peeled though because the next Busted
0:30
episode you will be hearing everything I knew before we
0:33
finally move on to without you and lose a kid.
0:36
So stick around. It's a great episode, definitely
0:38
not one to miss. Hello and welcome.
0:53
You're listening to Galaxy Crashes, the Busted and McFly
0:56
podcast. The only podcast where the
0:59
worlds of Busted and McFly crashed together.
1:02
Hosted by us 2 mums, fuelled by caffeine, chaos and early 2000s
1:07
nostalgia. I'm Sham.
1:10
And I'm Tay, and today we are diving back into Busted's debut
1:13
album, but we're switching up the vibe again.
1:17
Oh yeah, because today's song is a bit moodier, a bit more
1:20
thoughtful, and honestly, maybe a forgotten gem.
1:25
The key there is maybe because I know that we probably have very
1:28
different opinions on this song. We are talking about when day
1:34
turns into night. Which already sounds really
1:38
dramatic. It's giving staring out of a
1:42
window vibe, like I have thoughts and feelings.
1:44
Do you know what I mean? It's very much an emotional
1:46
ballad A. 100% we've left the aliens, we've left the chaos.
1:52
It's all gone for a second and we're entering the like, life is
1:55
kind of confusing. Era.
1:57
Oh yeah. Which, to be honest, we've all
1:59
been there. Oh yeah, still there, still.
2:02
There. Well, yeah, on.
2:03
There's definitely days where I'm definitely 100% back in that
2:06
moment. But you know, we're all good.
2:08
Anyway, before we get too deep, how has your week been?
2:12
Well, we'd spent the week together.
2:14
We. Did it was so exciting?
2:16
Well, it wasn't the whole week, but it felt like the whole week
2:19
because it was such a long amount of time.
2:22
It squished into two days. Yeah, it was like, how much can
2:26
you possibly fit into two days while still trying to maintain
2:29
sleep? Literally.
2:32
Literally. Oh dear.
2:34
So much fun. And obviously a lot of it was
2:38
spent, which to be completely honest, was one of my favourite
2:40
highlights of the weekend. A lot of it was spent in the
2:42
car, just me and you singing, which was great fun.
2:46
Just charming our life away. Exactly.
2:49
So this week's section is a little bit more interesting as
2:52
we have been off on our jollies over the weekend to participate
2:55
in big city life. Oh yes, we have been to London.
2:59
We have, we have, we have. What a what a trip.
3:05
What a trip. What a trip.
3:07
I mean, it was a lot, but, and I'm not going to lie, I'm so
3:11
tired. Oh yeah, I'm still tired.
3:14
Also, can I just say, like our listeners right now don't know
3:18
what's happened, but I'll tell you a tiny snippet that was
3:22
supposed to be the big the Big Galaxy crashes moment where we
3:26
met Matt Willis. Failed.
3:28
We queued up. Taylor had a script to tell the
3:31
security guard. We we had this whole drama GCSE
3:36
moment. And because we didn't actually
3:38
have tickets to the show, because we couldn't afford
3:39
tickets to the show because they were 90 lbs for back row, we
3:42
could not afford it. And he wasn't there, so I I
3:48
said. Despite I was going to say,
3:50
despite our research, because we did make sure that he was
3:53
supposed to be at that show and he was only supposed to not do
3:56
the Thursday that week or Thursday and Friday and then the
3:59
level doing the other days as well, which was really sad.
4:02
So we ended up not seeing him at all, which was a really
4:04
heartbreaking. Really sad, a waste of an
4:06
anxiety attack. I was it.
4:08
Really was. I was like, I was so prepared to
4:12
embarrass myself. Like I'd fully accepted the fact
4:15
that I would say something stupid like will you marry?
4:18
Me always do. Actually.
4:20
Oh, you smell nice, actually. Yeah, I didn't get the chance,
4:24
no. Yeah, there was that.
4:26
But never mind, We actually went to London to watch a musical
4:29
called The Last Five Years, which holds a very dear place in
4:32
my heart. It's one of my favourite
4:34
musicals of all time and it starred Ben Platt and Rachel
4:38
Zegler which was so cool because they are actual like movie stars
4:42
which is. Pretty.
4:43
Yeah, like crazy. Yeah, and I dragged you along
4:47
with me. I know that obviously you know
4:49
the show and you like the show. There is definitely probably no
4:52
comparison on how I feel about the show and how you feel about
4:55
the show. I feel like we're going to go
4:56
through that again later on in the year, which we will talk
4:58
about later, but it was absolutely phenomenal.
5:02
I loved it. I was just very disappointed
5:04
that they didn't have barriers, a stage door.
5:06
So when? Oh my goodness.
5:09
As Mt Girlies, we are very much stage doors.
5:12
Like we always like to go meet the cast.
5:14
We always like to go and say well done and say what we liked
5:16
and have photos and get autographs and like, that's the
5:18
kind of people we are. We are performers.
5:20
We love all of that. However, the London podium
5:23
apparently just didn't put barriers out.
5:25
So we weren't actually allowed to have Ben Platt and Rachel
5:28
Zegler come out to meet us. They had to stand by the door
5:30
and which was really anticlimactic.
5:33
I'm not. So anticlimactic.
5:35
I watched a TikTok the other day and it was the guy that tells
5:40
everyone that they can't come out.
5:41
He said that the council didn't give them permission.
5:45
Which got me thinking why these are actual movie stars?
5:50
Why for this particular show have you not given permission?
5:53
And it's the London Palladium. It's not like it's just this
5:56
off, off West End, kind of. Wow.
6:01
I have been on the gramme today, spent a little bit of time on
6:06
the ground today and I found a video of them singing Shakes the
6:09
Goddess, which was amazing. And I spent some time in the
6:11
comments and I'm not going to lie, they were not nice.
6:15
So I don't know whether they perhaps were doing it for a sort
6:20
of protection thing, but there was a lot about how Ben
6:24
obviously is playing a Jewish role.
6:26
If you don't know the last five years, he's playing a Jewish man
6:29
who is who falls in love with a non Jewish woman.
6:33
I don't know much about Judaism, but I know a little bit about it
6:36
from the musical. Ben is is Jewish himself and
6:41
apparently has played a lot of Jewish roles and like uses like
6:48
his Judaism beliefs to get these roles but apparently isn't a
6:51
very good person in the Jewish community whereas his brother is
6:56
like an advocate for Judaism. There was a lot of religious
7:01
chat in the comments, which obviously is like bit mental
7:05
considering it's just him performing in a show.
7:07
And I just, I just made a comment just said, like I'm here
7:10
to say Ben Platt was fantastic and I think he's very talented.
7:13
And no matter how you feel about his religious beliefs, let's
7:16
just appreciate his his talent because you know, he is very
7:19
talented and I think he's amazing.
7:22
So, you know, and I did make a comment that said, you know,
7:25
all, not all people that play Jesus or Judas in Jesus Christ
7:28
Superstar Christian. So what makes it different just
7:32
because it's Jewish? I don't know.
7:33
It's very, it was a lot and there was a lot of political
7:35
things on the comments. But I think that that may have
7:40
been one of the reasons that there may not have been barriers
7:42
up because perhaps it was a bit more of a protection thing
7:45
because they were probably 70% of the comments were about this.
7:49
So yeah, pretty brutal. But we loved it.
7:53
We had the best time ever. And not only did we see a
7:57
wonderful musical, we did like 20 something 1000 steps in one
8:01
day walking around. It was phenomenal.
8:04
Which was? It was.
8:04
Fun 100% we got to go to places like places like little places
8:09
like Devon and Cornwall don't have like Popmar and Harrods and
8:15
you know all the fun. Soho, yeah, Soho we walked down
8:20
and we went to, we saw the big, the London Eye and Big Ben and
8:25
we just did all your touristy things.
8:27
But it was lovely because the majority of the time we were
8:31
doing them was in the dark. And I can't remember if it was
8:34
me and you, Taylor or me and Steve were saying that.
8:37
It's so different being a tourist at night time.
8:39
Everything just looks spectacular.
8:43
With all the lights of the city, it's very different to the
8:45
countrysides of Honiton and Cornwall.
8:49
Yeah, definitely. 100% it was wonderful.
8:52
And obviously we took a book out at book, took a leaf out of our
8:57
wonderful Mr Dougie Poynter's pages of his book.
9:00
I don't really know what the what the what's the what's the?
9:04
Took a leaf out of his book. Took a leaf out of his book.
9:07
Is that right? Is that the why?
9:08
Is my brain just not working? It's late, it's been a long
9:11
week. I'm tired.
9:12
We did 23,000 steps in one day. That's it has still knocked me
9:15
out. It's been a few days and I'm
9:16
still knackered. We took a leaf out of Mr Dougie
9:19
Pointer's book and we went to Bunga 90 after the show, which
9:24
was, Oh my God, phenomenal and probably the highlight of my
9:27
weekend, I'm not going to lie. I've not stopped talking about
9:30
it. I've told my mum, I've told my
9:33
brother, I've told my friend at work, I've told my friend at
9:36
work that if I'm not married before I'm 35, then I'm having
9:39
my 35th birthday there. I'm going to make instead of a
9:41
hen, I'm going to make 35A thing and I'm going to yes, instead of
9:45
having a hen party, I'll have a my 35th birthday party there and
9:49
I'm going to do an all day thing.
9:50
It's going to be, it's going to be wild.
9:53
You don't have to convince me I'm there because I had the
9:56
best. Honestly.
9:57
It was so good. We were eating in a little Irish
10:00
bar which was called O'Neill's, which was so nice.
10:03
The food was great and it wasn't like overly pricey for London
10:05
because we were expecting like megabucks on food, but it was
10:08
really nice and we were actually recommended it by a stranger in
10:11
the street, which was quite fun. We.
10:13
Just stopped in front of him and we were like, where do we eat?
10:15
Where do we eat? And he went O'Neill sounds nice,
10:18
yeah. You should go to O'Neill's.
10:21
Yeah. So we went in there and then we
10:23
would, we were like talking about Bunga 90 and I got it up
10:26
online just because we knew we were going to go anyway.
10:28
But we sort of, sort of thought we were just going to go for a
10:30
drink and then come back. And then I realised that there
10:32
were three karaoke booths and we were like, Oh my God, yes,
10:35
please. Even though neither of us
10:37
actually had much of A voice that week.
10:40
No, I was really. Ill.
10:41
We got ill at the beginning of the week, so by the end of the
10:44
week we were just not good, really not good.
10:47
But you know, we got there in the end.
10:49
I know it was a bit of a bumpy week in terms of being feeling
10:53
well for every person in your family.
10:56
Now my side of the family have it because my daughters ill
10:59
again now so well, well well and good isn't.
11:02
It like every other podcast episode, I'm like, Oh yeah, my
11:04
kids are ill. Oh yeah, I'm ill.
11:06
And then it's like, Oh yeah, Molly's I'll.
11:08
Oh yeah, everyone will. Yeah, we're always I'll it's
11:10
grim, but we pushed through. We went to Bungan IT.
11:14
We had the best time ever. And if you haven't been on our
11:16
Instagram and checked out the video of us in the actual store
11:20
at the top, it's so cool. We actually go on to talk a
11:23
little bit about this later on in the episode.
11:25
But we had the best time there. And if you are ever in London
11:28
and you've got time to go, please do it.
11:30
Book yourself a karaoke booth if you've got quite a few friends
11:33
and you book yourself a karaoke booth.
11:34
But if you don't want to do that, don't worry because
11:36
there's karaoke out on the main dance floor and that is Oh.
11:39
My God, we didn't even stay for our whole slot, did we?
11:42
We just, we were like, let's go join them.
11:44
It was so much fun just to be with people our age because
11:47
obviously nearly everybody there was like in their 30s because
11:50
it's the 90s era and everybody was just loving it literally.
11:54
So that was so much fun. And and then the next day,
11:57
obviously we went to Harrods, which was awesome.
11:59
Haven't been to Harrods before. I bought 2 that were probably
12:04
the best things I've ever eaten in my entire life.
12:06
They were so good and I spent £8 on a baguette, which doesn't
12:12
seem like a lot to most people that live in the city but when
12:14
you get a baguette from Asda for £4.50 most of the time it was a
12:18
lot of money to spend on a baguette.
12:19
But I'm telling you now, it was worth every penny.
12:22
It was so good. That was 2 meals for you it.
12:24
Literally did me lunch and dinner.
12:26
I didn't eat anything else that day.
12:27
I just ate that baguette. That's amazing.
12:31
So we had the best time. And then obviously because we
12:40
live quite far away, I mean, I live a bit further away than you
12:44
do, but it was a good seven hour drive home for me, which was
12:50
killer, I'm not going to lie. Luckily there was no traffic,
12:53
but it was so long. I got home at like 7:00 PM and I
12:57
was so tired and have been tired ever since.
13:00
I don't and obviously now my daughter's poorly as well, so
13:03
that's not helped the tiredness situation.
13:04
Yeah. Oh, do you know what we should
13:06
do, Taylor? We should tell them about the
13:08
parking situation. Oh, the parking.
13:11
Yeah, that was fun. OK, I completely hold my hands
13:17
up. It was my fault.
13:18
I did not check the Airbnb listing.
13:21
I think the FVV listing was a lovely little flat in a Regents
13:25
Park because it wasn't far from like the main town.
13:28
It was only like a few minutes walk to Marylebone station, so
13:30
it was really close, like right in the centre.
13:33
But what I didn't check was that it had parking and it didn't
13:38
have parking. So when we turned up with our
13:40
car in central London where everything is permit only, we
13:45
had a little panic. Luckily as we pulled up, there
13:48
was a lady walking down the road and we literally stopped and our
13:51
friend Ricky shouted out the window, excuse me love, do you
13:54
know where we can park around here?
13:56
And she was like, and she and he said we've booked an Airbnb and
13:59
she said, are you are you Taylor?
14:02
And I said, yes, that's me. And she said I'm the cleaner for
14:05
your apartment. Don't tell anyone.
14:07
You can park down here and let us park in her.
14:12
Don't tell anyone. I'm just saying on a podcast
14:14
where we've got nearly 10,000 listeners, but it's fine.
14:16
It's all good. It's fine.
14:20
So yeah, that was a bit stressful, but ended up being
14:23
really, really good. Thank God.
14:25
We ended up being pretty lucky and literally party parking
14:29
right outside the Airbnb. So just a little future tip to
14:32
anybody travelling to London and staying in an Airbnb, make sure
14:35
you've got parking or get the train.
14:38
Yeah, yeah, literally all get the train.
14:40
Yeah. And to be honest, I'm not going
14:43
to lie, since we've been back, why am I suddenly tired all of
14:48
the time? Honestly, I don't know why, but
14:51
I really really would like to unsubscribe from this tightness.
14:56
No free trial, just cancel it. I'm done.
15:01
It's time for this or that and today it's all about those late
15:06
night overthinking vibes, which is pretty much where we've got
15:09
the ideas for some of these Thistle pads.
15:11
We're only going with two today because last week we did 5 and
15:15
it took way too long and the this or that section was 20
15:19
minutes long so we're just going to bang it out.
15:23
Come on, give me yours. OK, up till 2:00 AM, writing in
15:27
your journal or bed at 10:00 PM with A to do list or ready for
15:33
the next day. Who are you?
15:35
What kind of person are you? Well, I'm not on up till 2:00 AM
15:40
or bed at 10:00 PM because I'm 100% of bed at 8:00 PM.
15:45
She says at 8:38 PM on a Tuesday evening.
15:50
Podcast nights are a late night for me.
15:53
It's my treat. I think I'd say bed at 10:00 PM
15:57
on the To Do List, 'cause I'm not going to lie, I want to be.
16:01
I think I said this last week I'd love to be a diary girl.
16:04
I'd love to be a journal girl. I've tried it so many times.
16:07
But I tell you what I do love and what does like I can do tick
16:14
off A to do list. I love A to do list.
16:16
I love one. I've got so many on my phone.
16:19
I've got so many. And you know, as we do the
16:21
podcast, when we get to parts where we need to cut, I'd write
16:25
it down because otherwise I forget.
16:27
I love it. Have you?
16:28
Seen that Mrs Hinch does a undo, I think it's like called an undo
16:33
list or something like that where she hasn't got herself A
16:36
to do list so every time she does something she writes it
16:39
down and ticks it so even if it's something small she doesn't
16:43
realise she's. Getting better today so
16:45
sometimes I add things to my To Do List that I've already done
16:48
so it makes me feel like I've done more in my day.
16:51
I do that when I used to work in hospitality and I'd like leave a
16:55
list if I was opening and I was like give myself a list of what
16:58
to do for the day. Just to make.
16:59
Myself seem so good to the person that was doing the
17:02
clothes. I would write everything I've
17:04
already done and then tick it and then everything that needs
17:08
to be done and then I'd tick half it off and be like, oh,
17:11
I've just done so much this morning.
17:13
So do you mind doing the last few years?
17:17
I love that and that's me. I do it at home.
17:19
So like because you do as like especially when you're at home,
17:22
if you're like you've got the day off your partner's at work
17:24
or whatever. Like I, I titivate all the time.
17:28
Like I'm always doing something. I'm never just sat doing nothing
17:30
when I'm at home, but when my husband gets home, it's little
17:33
things that he's not going to notice, like I'm going to Skype
17:36
boards. Yeah.
17:38
Literally like tiny little things like that.
17:41
Like, seriously, like to the point where if I don't tell
17:44
myself that I've done it by putting it on my list, I'm like,
17:47
has what have I done today? Yeah, I do.
17:50
That have I done anything? Today, like such small things,
17:53
even like washing the dog dog's bowls out, like his food and his
17:56
water bowls. I do it every like couple of
17:57
days. I wash his water bowls, water
17:59
bowl out and like and make sure it's really, really clean and
18:01
washed like all around it. So you know, he it's a nice
18:04
place for him to eat. He's a dog.
18:05
He'd probably eat shit, but equally you know.
18:10
I know I've. Done it.
18:11
Yeah, and like wiping the inside of the bin lid, that needs to be
18:14
done. The bin is disgusting, but it's
18:16
something you're not going to notice because who's looking
18:18
inside the bin lid apart from me?
18:19
Yeah, it's just me. It's those little things.
18:24
So I agree. I'm definitely at bed at 10:00
18:26
PM, actually at 9:00 PM with a do.
18:30
It's ready for the next day. Good.
18:32
OK, go on then. Hit me with yours.
18:34
So mine's not really that emotional, but like, I think
18:37
it's quite serious. So my Thistle that is finding
18:42
unknown artists that only tour small arenas or a big famous
18:48
artist that perform in stadiums. Oh.
18:52
That's so difficult because I'm like smack bang in the middle,
18:56
yeah. Because.
18:58
We went to the Eras Tour, which was freaking insane and I loved
19:03
every minute of that. But I spend all of my time
19:06
thinking about the tiny little gigs for McFly or Busted or like
19:11
when you talk about when you went to see Youngblood and it
19:13
was really like small, intimate venues.
19:15
I love those shows. I love those shows.
19:18
They hit different but. Then again, what could you
19:20
imagine seeing Taylor Swift in like Bristol O2 I?
19:25
I would literally combust them a pavilion.
19:28
Can you imagine? And that's what I mean.
19:30
Like, we saw you meet at six at Plymouth.
19:32
Like, I saw Kelly Clarkson there when she, like, became famous.
19:35
I like imagine Kelly Clarkson playing Plymouth now.
19:39
I know. Well, exactly.
19:41
I saw you meet six on their tour, obviously with you in
19:44
Plymouth but also at like Exeter University.
19:48
Exactly. Such like tiny little venues.
19:51
I love, I love an intimate arena.
19:53
Yeah, I'm definitely going to say I'm the smaller, smaller
19:57
tours are definitely one for me rather than the big stadiums.
20:00
But equally did enjoy the Eras Tour.
20:03
My first McFly show I went to was the Up Close and Personal
20:07
tour where they only smaller like up close and personal
20:12
venues. Yeah, so.
20:14
Good. So good.
20:15
And I didn't go to that tour. That was, I can't remember what
20:17
year was that? That was a long time ago, wasn't
20:19
it? I think.
20:21
It was 2000 and eight 2007, something like that.
20:25
So it. Was naughties.
20:26
I thought it was like a good a couple of years after their
20:28
first album came out, but it wasn't quite the 10s yet.
20:32
A good era to be in an intimate tour.
20:35
Exactly, it was the year or the year before year, the year of or
20:39
the year after that. The Heart Never Lies came out.
20:43
I remember I had the CD that was shaped like a love heart.
20:47
Oh yes, I remember that one tattoo.
20:49
Well, there you go. There you go.
20:51
That's where it all started. That's where it all.
20:53
Started and now I'll never look back.
20:57
It's time for Song of the Week. And this week we are talking
21:02
about when Day turned into Night by Busted.
21:05
Oh yes. Now I know we have a bit of a
21:09
difference of opinion about this song.
21:10
I think we've already like, we haven't really talked about it
21:13
because we actually let you in on a secret, forgot we were
21:17
doing this song and we started planning to do a different song
21:20
and then realised that we'd skipped a couple because on some
21:22
of the albums, this song isn't actually on all of Busted's
21:27
debut albums. It was on like a special edition
21:29
or like a second edition almost. It wasn't on.
21:32
The very. Very original.
21:33
So we thought we were actually moving on to Without you, but
21:37
we're not. There's a couple more in between
21:38
before we get there. So I to be completely honest, I
21:42
think this one feels a little bit different to the majority of
21:47
Busted songs. However, I do think there's a
21:49
little bit of a similarity between this one and losing you.
21:53
And obviously when we get to without you, I think we'll see a
21:56
bit of a correlation there as well.
21:57
Do you feel, do you feel my vibe?
21:59
Yeah, 100. Percent, 100%.
22:01
The rest of the album so far has been very, Not all of it has
22:05
been fun, but it's been very felt like came from a younger
22:11
person's kind of perspective. This is the first song that
22:13
feels kind of grown up, yeah. Completely.
22:16
I think that's a really good way of putting it.
22:18
It's not like, I don't know, I feel like this is a moment where
22:23
they've stopped and they've actually started to slow down
22:25
and like process like a feeling, like an emotion rather than just
22:29
like. Getting it all out.
22:31
You know, like we think about like what I go to school for and
22:34
like that early powerful, you know, those big songs of the
22:38
beginning of the album. And even if when you think about
22:41
it, even songs like Britney were quite like soppy in a way, but
22:46
like, they're not soppy, are they?
22:48
Because they're, you know, funny at the same time, Whereas this
22:51
is actually just emotional. There's not really a funny side
22:54
to this. It's a bit like losing you.
22:56
It's a bit like without you feel like there's a bit of a mirror
22:59
there when it comes to those songs.
23:02
Can we say that my, should we just go?
23:05
Should we go straight, straight to ratings?
23:09
I feel like, I don't know. I feel like for me, I never
23:14
really understood this song. I feel like maybe when I was a
23:18
teenager I heard it. To be honest, it was probably a
23:21
skip song for me when I was younger because the Busted that
23:24
I loved was the year 3000 Busted the what I go to school for
23:28
Busted the Britney Busted. It wasn't the losing you like,
23:32
and when day turns into night inside of Busted, I feel like I
23:36
had other artists that hit those sort of emotional ballads for
23:40
me. You didn't need busted for that.
23:42
Yeah, no. I think I was probably like, Oh
23:44
yeah, this is a good song. But now I'm like, oh, it's real
23:48
feelings and it's not sad, it's not happy.
23:52
It's just like overthinking. Do you get what I mean?
23:55
So 100%. I feel like.
23:58
It's definitely not a favourite for me.
24:00
It's not, it's not top tier, it's definitely not God tier.
24:04
I'm going to go for mid tier, I'm going to go for a 5, maybe
24:07
even a four. Yeah, now let's go four and a
24:10
half, 4.5. I'm going to meet in the middle.
24:12
It's a good enough song, but it's not a favourite.
24:17
OK, so my I thought our ratings would be a lot more different
24:20
than they are. They are different, but I
24:23
thought there would be a bigger gap.
24:26
I thought you were going to put this quite high.
24:27
That's why. Oh, OK.
24:30
I am not going to lie to you, I thought I was such a huge busted
24:38
fan. I thought I could wear my busted
24:41
Badger of Pride. But when I saw we were doing
24:43
this and I listened to it, I was like, what the I've never heard
24:46
this in my life. Oh, really?
24:48
Don't even know this song. I think I, I obviously have had
24:52
it because I had like, I was like ACD Collector.
24:56
So I had this version of the album.
24:59
The original album, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
25:02
So I've definitely had it and I had it in my little Walkman.
25:04
I used to go listen to it everywhere.
25:05
So I definitely have heard it. But it must have been such a
25:11
minor song for me because when I re listened to it the other day
25:16
I forgot it existed. I didn't.
25:18
I can't correlate ever listening to this song.
25:21
This song is probably unfairly. I think I would give this song
25:27
A2 or a three because I think, I think if I listen to this song
25:32
now often it would probably be higher.
25:35
I think it's quite a well written song.
25:37
It's very grown up, it's very mature for the album.
25:40
But. I can't say I'm I like the song
25:43
when I can't even remember it exists.
25:47
OK, I get that. I feel like, to be honest, I
25:50
thought you were going to rate it lower and I thought it was
25:51
because you just didn't like it. Knowing that you don't know it
25:54
and that's why you've rated it low makes me appreciate you
25:57
more. I feel.
25:59
I feel OK with it. Like I said, it's not a bad
26:02
song. I like the song.
26:03
It's not like I wouldn't listen to it.
26:04
I just feel like with all the other Busted songs that we've
26:07
got coming and the ones that we've already had, I don't feel
26:09
like I can rate it above a 5. I feel like it has to be lower
26:12
than a 5 because there's just so many Busted songs that I love
26:16
and we've already discovered along the way that I'm probably
26:19
more of a Busted fan than you were.
26:21
Slash are I know that. I feel.
26:24
Like I discovered McFly fru busted whereas and I know that
26:28
you sort of did as well because of McFly supporting Busted, but
26:31
I feel like your love for Busted probably drifted whereas your
26:34
McFly love grew. Whereas I feel like my, my, my
26:39
busted love stayed the same for a really, really long time.
26:42
And McFly sort of like carried on going up and up and up.
26:46
And I do feel like I love them both very much.
26:49
I do feel like I am more of a McFly girly now, especially
26:52
after having so much of them. But back then and like, when I
26:55
think of nostalgia and I think of like myself as a teenager,
26:58
like a young teenager, I definitely was obsessed with
27:02
Busted. Oh, A. 100% And you know what?
27:04
So my thing is, I love Busted. I think they're phenomenal.
27:08
I'm not gonna like down put them down or anything because they
27:11
are one of my top five bands of all time.
27:14
However, in my house when I was younger, I was the McFly girl,
27:18
my brother was the Busted boy. And then together I can see that
27:21
we listened to that music. Yeah, like.
27:24
I listened to. Busted all the time because of
27:28
well, because I liked it, but also because that's what he
27:30
chose to play. But yeah, McFly, I like hyper
27:34
fixate. So when I like something, I love
27:37
it. And like for example, when we
27:39
went to the ears to all I listened to for like a whole
27:41
year was Taylor Swift because I like that hyperfix.
27:44
Hey I do exactly the same. Yeah, so I.
27:48
Just I think when I was younger I was probably doing the same.
27:51
So I was listening to Busted a lot.
27:53
Like I said, I I was the CD collector.
27:55
I had all the originals. I sent off the bottle tops to
27:57
get the Britney special edition. Yes, you did.
27:59
I. Yeah, I saw I proper loved them,
28:02
but in my heart of hearts I was if there was a McFly album that
28:06
was getting played first, Yeah, like.
28:09
That's how I, yeah, I, that's how I see it in my head.
28:11
Like if you had to choose, you would have chosen McFly, whereas
28:14
if I had to choose back then, I would have chosen Busted.
28:17
Now I feel like I'm a very different person.
28:19
I've grown, definitely grown. And my, my taste in music is
28:22
very similar. I think I just appreciate McFly
28:24
in a different way because they've been going for so long
28:26
and I love who they are as people and not just their music.
28:29
Whereas like, obviously we know a lot and like my love for Matt
28:32
Willis will never, ever fade. And I love, I love all of
28:36
busted. And then we all know I'm a James
28:37
Bond girl. If we, I'm missing James so much
28:40
that it's like, not that you can forget him, but like, there's
28:44
just a massive gap in like my, my love for busted because he's
28:48
just not here. And like, it's so depressing
28:50
because we, we have to leave him alone.
28:52
You have to let him have his time.
28:53
You have to let him recover. We don't know what it is that
28:55
he's dealing with. We have to give him his privacy
28:57
and respect about the same time. Oh my God, it would be so nice
29:01
to have an update. I would just love to know that
29:03
he's OK. Just like I would just like, hey
29:06
guys, I see you. I hear you.
29:08
And I appreciate you for giving me my time.
29:11
Like I just want to know not that he's OK because he might
29:14
not be OK and it's OK not to be OK.
29:17
But like, I just want to know that he sees what the fans feel
29:24
for him. And he like, it's it's not like
29:28
he's delete. Like, you know how Ed Sheeran
29:29
just got rid of his phone and you just didn't see anything for
29:32
years? I want I'd, yeah, I do love
29:34
that. But I'd love to know that James
29:37
is receiving the love that we are giving.
29:43
Yeah. 100% and just we're not just giving it into the.
29:46
Oblivion, you know it would give.
29:47
Did you see that? He posted, he changed the
29:50
caption didn't he on his? Post.
29:53
And how I can't even remember what it was he changed, but
29:58
remember we us discovering that. And then in July last year, he
30:03
made a post on his Instagram that said captioned it was
30:07
pictures of him growing up, like when he was little, pictures of
30:11
him with Matt, pictures of him in the band, pictures of him
30:15
with son of dork, like all of him like his him growing up.
30:19
And it said underneath 1991 to 2025 biopic in the works.
30:24
And it had a popcorn and like a movie snap thing.
30:28
So there was. Obviously something planned for,
30:33
I don't know, like a biopic of some sort, like, you know, like
30:36
some. And how amazing would it be?
30:40
To. I don't know.
30:41
I want to know I want to know if that's still happening like
30:44
obviously that was a while ago now that's like nearly a year
30:47
ago is July last year. I want to know if that's still
30:50
going on and obviously he's probably not recording it or
30:53
doing it because he's been so I'll but oh, I miss him so much
30:57
man I know sucks. So much.
30:59
And we've got one of our yeah, love love you future boy, one of
31:04
our Instagram friends slash followers slash who we follow
31:08
Gwen. She's her Instagram name is Gwen
31:12
loves JB and the love I have for her.
31:14
I don't even know her, but the love I have for her, the love I
31:16
have for you, Gwen. I know you listen, the love I
31:18
have for her for for the love that she has for James Bourne
31:21
unmatched. Absolutely appreciate her so
31:23
much for that. So good.
31:26
But I think that's it for me. I, I really love, I love James
31:30
so much, but I feel like Matt has grown so much more on me
31:33
over the last sort of three or four years because he's doing so
31:37
many different things in the public eye now.
31:39
And we see him with Love Is Blind, we see him with On the
31:42
Mend, we see him in the celeb British Sabotage and like doing
31:45
all the other podcasts and being in theatre and like seeing Matt
31:48
in musical theatre is like 2 worlds colliding.
31:52
It's just so great. I love.
31:54
It and also I think it's as well, when we were younger we
31:58
saw Matt as Matt Willis, but now we see what he went through
32:03
whilst he was in the public eye when we were younger and I think
32:06
we it's easy to love him when you can appreciate his recovery
32:11
100. Percent.
32:12
Oh my God. I have a different like level of
32:14
respect to that man since I'm his wife.
32:17
End up. Yeah, my God, his family like
32:19
since he's opened up. And I love how cautious they are
32:22
with their family and their children and being in the public
32:24
eye. Emma Willis is something else.
32:26
It's really funny. I was with my mum today.
32:28
We were in Falmouth, and I walked past Spec Savers and her
32:32
face was in the window. Or it might have been Spec
32:34
Savers or Vision Express. I'm not sure which one it was,
32:36
but it was like a beautiful picture of her with some lovely
32:38
glasses on. And I went, oh, Emma Willis.
32:40
And my mum was like, who? I was like, yeah, just Matt,
32:43
Matt Willis's wife. She was like, are you OK?
32:47
And then spent like 15 minutes talking to my mum about how much
32:50
I love Emma Willis. I don't think she appreciated it
32:55
as much as you would have appreciated it.
32:57
But still, it's OK. Thanks, mum.
33:00
But I think, I think like, back to the song, it was a good song.
33:03
We, we definitely were given a glimpse into the more emotional
33:07
side of Busted, which I love. And I think we start to lose
33:11
that as the albums go on. I don't feel like we get.
33:13
Oh yeah. The emotional.
33:15
Side of them as much we get the funny we get the sort of pop
33:19
rock I. Think she wants to be me as so
33:21
emotional. Falling for You, like one of my
33:25
favourite songs of all time. I love Falling for You so much.
33:28
But it's like, it's emotional but not emotional at the same
33:30
time. It's like funny, comicy, gimicky
33:33
kind of love. And you know, it's that sort of
33:35
thing, isn't it? So I feel like we did get a bit
33:37
of a glimpse into, you know, that side of them there.
33:40
But, you know, I'm still happy to give it a 4.5.
33:43
There's still many more Busted songs to come that deserves
33:46
higher ratings. And I will say if I could
33:50
remember exists my might have been higher so.
33:55
We'll just leave it at that, OK, It's time for McFly in the wild.
34:01
Now. We haven't done this for quite a
34:03
while, have we, this segment, but we thought that we would
34:07
bring it back this week because we need to talk about one of our
34:10
favourite people. Oh yes, this week we are yet
34:14
again talking about the one the only Carrie Hope Fletcher.
34:20
OK. We know we've spoken about her
34:22
before. We're sorry if you don't know
34:25
who she is or if you're not into the theatre side of things.
34:28
We just, we can't, we cannot ignore this fact.
34:31
And you all need to know, OK, It just, it needs to come out.
34:34
We need to speak about it. We know we speak about her
34:37
YouTube channel occasionally. We know we talked about how me
34:40
and Shannon went to meet her and Shannon very, very, really
34:43
embarrassed herself to, I say to a degree, but it was to a very
34:47
large degree. And I promise I will.
34:50
I'll never let you forget that you told Carrie Hopefletcher,
34:53
I'm sure. You were.
34:54
You were. Sorry that you were ugly.
34:57
I still apologise for that. I know, I know.
35:00
But we have to bring her back up again this week because we are
35:04
going to talk about her new role as Jenna in the musical
35:07
Waitress. Oh my God, this.
35:10
Is so huge because not only is she incredibly talented, but
35:17
stepping into a role like this is such a big moment.
35:20
And also, if you don't know me personally, then you probably
35:24
don't know that this is my literal, literal favourite God
35:28
Tia, like everything else is here and she's like, it's my the
35:35
best show I've ever seen, my better favourite soundtrack,
35:38
everything. So this crossover is massive in
35:43
my head. And then if you do know me,
35:45
well, I'm sorry because I literally haven't shut up about
35:49
this since the casting announcement and I won't until
35:52
we see it. I can, absolutely.
35:54
Attone to the fact that she has not shown up about it, I won't.
35:57
Stop and. Obviously from everything we've
36:01
seen so far, which is minimal obviously, because it's not
36:04
been, it's only been like a week or something since she debuted,
36:06
isn't it? She's just, I can't even talk
36:10
about how amazing she is. The vocals, the emotion, her
36:15
acting, she just like fully embodies the whole role of Jenna
36:18
and I think. I think being.
36:21
The mother of a toddler as well has had an obvious clear impact
36:27
on her acting in this role. Because I think some of the
36:29
songs and like, I've never actually seen the musical, which
36:32
obviously you know, Shannon. However, I have listened to the
36:35
soundtrack and I have like, I think I've always picked a few
36:37
songs to listen to. However, last week on the way
36:40
back from London, I was really happy because the boys that we
36:42
were with were really chill in the back playing their games and
36:45
happy enough to just sit there and you were like, I'm putting
36:47
waitress on. And I was like, yes, I listened
36:50
to the whole soundtrack from beginning to end with you
36:53
absolutely bawling your eyes out beside me the whole way.
36:57
And I felt like as a mum just hearing those songs for the
37:01
first time, hearing some of those lyrics, Obviously I've
37:04
heard the big ballads like she used to be mine.
37:06
But hearing like little little lyrics, like there's one lyric
37:11
where she says we were both born today.
37:14
And every time I hear it, I've got actual, I've got literal
37:17
goosebumps as I say it because you are born as a mother, you're
37:21
like reborn when your child is born, you're reborn as a
37:24
different person. You'll see yourself, but
37:25
obviously you're completely different.
37:27
And I feel like. I feel like.
37:30
With Carrie, I feel like you can see that in the way she's
37:33
performing it. You can see the emotion talked
37:35
about the fact that you've said, you know, you've seen videos of
37:38
her doing it and she's like always crying and always really
37:40
emotional because you're going to be when you're a mum.
37:43
And like hearing those songs as a mother just hit in a
37:46
completely different way. Yes, this musical is about a
37:49
woman who is a waitress, but it's not about that.
37:51
It's about her becoming a it is, but it is about her becoming
37:56
like a different version of herself as well.
37:58
And I think there's so beautiful and it's a version of herself
38:01
that she was not ready to be, but she became that version and
38:04
she embraced it so fully, which we all do because sometimes we
38:08
aren't ready. Sometimes we are.
38:10
Sometimes we plan it. And even when we think we're
38:12
ready, we aren't. I can tell you that right now
38:14
because I'm not ready for the pain, painfulness of being a
38:18
mother. And you know, I think if you are
38:22
a mum and you haven't heard the soundtrack, where have you been?
38:24
Please get on Spotify and listen to it right now.
38:27
And obviously, it's really lovely seeing another member of
38:32
the extended Mcfy family thriving in the world of theatre
38:36
yet again, because they just hold such a dear place in my
38:40
heart. As you know, although she's
38:42
always in the. Theatre.
38:42
But it's lovely to see her like, you know, and like, I just feel
38:45
like a proud mum with her name, Body, yes.
38:49
The. Front of the poster, do you know
38:51
what I mean? Oh God, I just love her.
38:52
So much proud mum. I know, and this also feels like
38:56
the perfect moment to scream into the mic and tell everyone
39:00
that we have officially booked tickets to see Carrie and
39:04
Waitress. I can't.
39:07
I literally. Can't wait.
39:09
Oh, I'm. So excited.
39:10
This was such big. News for us because we we knew
39:15
she was doing the tour, we checked dates for everywhere and
39:18
obviously for us being so far the other end of the country we
39:24
our nearest place to go where Carrie was performing was
39:27
Cardiff. Now Cardiff for us is a four
39:29
hour journey. It is not just around the
39:31
corner, it's not even a couple of hours, it's 4 hours.
39:34
Now bear in mind we both work in education, so taking a day off
39:37
is impossible. And we also exactly, and we have
39:41
children, which also is very difficult to navigate when
39:44
you're a parent and you have to leave your child at home with,
39:47
you know, other family members or your partner and they've also
39:49
got work and all these things going on.
39:51
So going to Cardiff was one of those things that we were like,
39:54
we have to go, but how the hell are we going to do it?
39:57
We didn't book it, we haven't booked it and we've been like
40:01
prolonging it for so long. And then I'm so glad we.
40:04
Did on our way back. From London, there was an
40:07
announcement as I was driving. Shannon turns to me and goes
40:12
day. I'm like, what?
40:15
Carrie's extended her dates. Oh my God.
40:17
And then we're watching the video and we just hear her say
40:19
Bristol and we just went. I was like, everyone shut up.
40:24
I need to know what extend means because are you doing more at
40:27
the end or are you filling in the gaps for the people we don't
40:31
know? Exactly, so we found out that
40:34
she's playing at Bristol which means it's only just over 3
40:37
hours for us. So it's a little bit closer but
40:39
also we have family Bristol friends in Bristol so it's
40:41
easier for us to stay. We are so excited and tell you
40:45
now if you could have seen slash her Shannon sobbing.
40:50
I've never seen you look so emotional, I think.
40:54
In the car, I can, I can quite remember, I like literally told
40:57
everyone shut up. And then we heard that anybody
40:59
was talking. A little squeal.
41:01
No, I did like, a little squeal. And then you were like, Shannon,
41:05
are you OK? And I just looked up to you
41:07
like, like in a movie, like through my eyelashes.
41:09
You could just sit. At the Water Puppy Dog.
41:12
Tears down my face. And then I was like, we are
41:18
listening to the entire soundtrack and I think I cried
41:21
that it was great. I don't know, Probably every
41:23
song, even though even the funny ones love you like a table.
41:27
I was like a table. Love.
41:28
You like a table and then by the.
41:30
End. I was also crying.
41:31
We were just sobbing our way through air.
41:33
It was great. Many a times you and Steve said
41:37
to me, if you can't make it through the soundtrack, how are
41:40
you going to make, how are you going to do?
41:42
I didn't the first. Time I didn't make it through
41:44
and I did say as. Well, I think because we went to
41:47
see my emotional show in London. Yeah.
41:49
So you saw me and like the last five years is very much
41:52
whiplash. It's like sad song, funny song,
41:55
sad song, funny song, sad song, funny song all the way through.
41:57
So you're like crying your eyes out and then it's hilarious and
42:00
you're like, oh, whiplash. But you know that that that
42:03
musical for me is like my kryptonite when it comes to me
42:06
being an emotional wreck. I'm very excited that I'm
42:08
finally going to get CU and yours.
42:11
I'm going to take when I. Saw it the first time I met Lucy
42:15
Jones at the end and I literally said to her, I was, I was like,
42:20
I love you, I love you, I love you.
42:21
I think you're the most amazing person.
42:23
And I just got all of these words out.
42:26
And then she just looked at me and went, thanks.
42:32
I was like, you've done it again.
42:35
But like I was just I had to talk to.
42:37
Us and that's we've already discovered it.
42:40
Yeah, I was just, I was like in awe.
42:42
Like, I don't know how anyone can get through that show
42:47
without crying. Genuinely.
42:48
Especially especially if you're a mother.
42:51
Especially if you've gone through a hard time in a
42:55
relationship. Yeah.
42:57
Especially if you've got three. Like if you've got your Donna's
43:01
Dynamos, I call them, like your 3 amigos, 3 pals you've got.
43:05
Yeah, you're like little tight knit group of people that you're
43:09
like, you could call it 2:00 AM If you've got all of those
43:13
things, how do you make it through that show without
43:16
crying? Oh, I've never seen it.
43:18
So I'm so excited to like piece it together.
43:20
I'm excited for. You to see it, you know when you
43:22
hear. Parts of a show and like I was
43:24
the same when I went to see Finding Neverland.
43:26
I felt like I knew the show because I can sing every single
43:29
song from beginning to finale. Like every single song.
43:33
But I was not prepared for the storyline at all.
43:35
Mine was the same for dear Evan Landon.
43:38
Yeah, you. Plan it in your.
43:39
Head you'd think you know what the story's going to be about,
43:41
but then they Add all these things in that you weren't
43:44
prepared to do and that even the staging of it is so different
43:46
and it oh God, I can't wait. I'm so excited, and to be
43:49
honest, there are absolutely no complaints coming from me.
43:51
I'm happy to see Carrie Hope Fletcher in anything.
43:54
I would watch her in the worst play possible.
43:57
I would sit through hours of Shakespeare and watch her in
44:00
that because she is phenomenal. And it's going to be just before
44:04
your birthday, which is even more exciting because it's
44:07
something to celebrate too. So there we go.
44:09
My God. Let's just don't hope I don't
44:11
cry at her again at stage at all.
44:13
It's. Going to happen.
44:14
Let's just leave it there. Welcome back to.
44:18
One of our favourite nostalgic segments.
44:21
The lost songs of the naughties, indeed.
44:24
And this section has had a little bit of a revamp because
44:27
we're going to be swapping around each week from lost songs
44:30
to lost movies to lost TV shows of the naughties, because we
44:33
know how much you guys love it. Absolutely.
44:35
And there are so many gems to discuss, we thought we'd make it
44:40
a regular segment indeed. And as we said earlier on in
44:44
today's episode, we headed over to Bunga 90s in London after the
44:49
recommendation of Mr Dougie Pointer.
44:51
Thank you very much, Dougie, because it was ever loved it.
44:55
Boy, did we have a blast. And while we were in there, we
44:57
looked around at all the old videos and CDs.
45:01
And also, while we're here, I should probably say sorry to
45:03
those of you that were born after 2003 because you probably
45:06
don't know what I'm talking about when I say videos and CDs
45:08
because videos dire. Death.
45:11
Then yeah, literally. But we looked around at so many
45:13
lost gems. There were videos of S Club,
45:16
Club 7 on tour. As soon as I saw that, I was
45:19
like, so good. I can remember calling.
45:20
Steve over. I was like Steve.
45:22
Steve, come and look at this literally I can remember.
45:25
Being a young teenager dancing on my friend's sofa to the S
45:30
Club 7 video on to like the tour video.
45:33
We used to put it on and we used to play it so loud in her living
45:35
room because her step parents had this massive sound system.
45:38
We just stand on the sofa singing and then we used to love
45:41
S Club Juniors as well, which obviously was a little bit later
45:44
of. Equally great.
45:45
There were old episodes of like, Brookside on video there, There
45:50
was teen movies galore like you would never believe, and so many
45:53
albums that that had been forgotten in the CD section.
45:57
It just really got me thinking about old school days when we
46:00
used to have those little portable CD players on US 24/7.
46:04
Oh yeah. So good.
46:06
So good So. Good.
46:08
Yeah, it was. I actually really liked, yeah, I
46:13
loved downstairs, but Upstairs was so good.
46:16
Oh yeah. To me, upstairs felt like you're
46:18
nostalgia or nostalgia literally.
46:20
Like complete complete the neon. Lights and the little
46:25
PlayStation with like it was the PlayStation one with the little
46:28
games like Yeah and the Sega Mega Drive.
46:31
Like actually working as well. I remember Steve was playing on
46:34
it. I was like give me the
46:35
controller. No.
46:39
Haven't played with this for so long.
46:41
Yeah, it was amazing. So we.
46:43
Thought that we'd talk about old songs from when we were younger
46:47
and what we heard. And I've been talking to my
46:49
partner about this in the car. We've just been like going forth
46:53
back and forth about songs that we like and we we're on quite a
46:57
nostalgic journey. We've been listening to like old
46:59
school R&B in the car recently, which has been absolutely
47:03
wonderful. Yeah, absolutely.
47:05
Although I he's slid in, I'm going to say it's for me, but it
47:09
probably is for him. He slid in a couple of Jonas
47:11
Brothers songs and I was like, OK, now I know what your
47:15
childhood was like. He stepped.
47:17
Up another level in my estimation, I know.
47:20
Well done mate. And.
47:22
What came on the other day? Oh, we were listening to that
47:26
playlist and it's on his Spotify.
47:28
So I never know what's coming next.
47:29
And what came on next was the Rasmus.
47:32
Do you remember the Rasmus in the Shadows?
47:37
I thought we could talk about that today because that song.
47:41
It's it's not even the song for me, it's the whole album.
47:44
Like this album is pinnacle emo tae like nice.
47:50
Slidy. Fringe like top and bottom,
47:52
black eyeliner like white powder.
47:56
You have the cat. Yes, like in.
47:58
The inside and then it used to just make like glute put on the
48:01
inside of your eyes. It was grim.
48:03
I used to have like, even like the fake cuffs on my ear, you
48:06
know, like would go like all the way up.
48:08
The sweat bands, the little studded collars, the belts, the
48:13
buckles, the buggy trousers, the skate shoes with the big thick
48:17
laces. Oh my God, I was living the
48:20
dream. The Rasmus came to me through an
48:26
old crush. I used to have a crush on this
48:28
guy in my class, bear my nose in like year seven or eight.
48:32
He was called Ricky hilarious. And imagine if he listens to
48:37
this. The only thing I ever told him I
48:38
had a crush on him. So weird.
48:40
We actually ended up becoming we ended up becoming really good
48:43
friends and like nothing ever became anything.
48:48
We were just really good friends.
48:49
And it's really lovely because like obviously I don't know him
48:52
anymore, but I see he's got family and stuff now and I'm
48:54
like, oh, it's so lovely. I had like the weirdest crush on
48:57
this guy. He was like.
49:00
Not that he wasn't. Attractive, I was ugliest in in
49:03
year 7. So do not get me wrong, I'm not
49:05
there was no not saying he was ugly, but like he had like
49:08
really long hair, like sweepy, like Emory hair, but he had like
49:12
blonde highlights in it and it was almost like like.
49:16
Patchy like. Boy band highlights can't even
49:19
really work out what it was, but I digged it.
49:23
Obviously I digged it. I dug it.
49:26
I. Dug it.
49:27
Now he, I liked the Rasmus and I can remember him saying to me,
49:32
have we listened to the Rasmus? And I was like, Oh no, I have
49:35
never listened to the Rasmus. I don't know.
49:36
I when I tell you I ran to the CD shop and I bought that album
49:41
and I had to get home and I listened to nothing but that CD
49:44
for weeks on end. Now in our school in our form
49:48
group, we every day we had form like where we would get together
49:52
and do our like form tutor group sessions.
49:56
Our teacher would allow one of us to bring in an album and play
50:00
one of our favourite songs from that album.
50:03
Oh. I can, this was my album.
50:05
This was my album and I absolutely, I think he brought
50:09
the album in and played In the Shadows and I brought the album
50:12
in and played Guilty, which was another one of the socks on it.
50:16
I remember everybody in that class looking at me like, are
50:19
you OK, babe? I was in a class why really
50:24
popular boys and girls that would listen to literally like
50:27
mainstream pop and R&B, and I'm like that.
50:33
I. Love that I would have been
50:36
there with you. Yes, exactly.
50:38
And like there was, I had one friend who was like into that
50:41
sort of rocky music and the only other person that appreciate it
50:45
was Ricky. And there you go.
50:47
That's all I needed. I needed my little team crush to
50:50
appreciate it and who did? So there we go.
50:53
It worked. I mean, not that it worked
50:54
because we didn't end up together.
50:55
I didn't even have the guts to tell him.
50:57
I thought could have been. But that song, I remember that
51:01
song being such an earworm to the point where people would
51:04
just walk around the corridors going.
51:07
Overtime, yeah, I think that was so my mum, my mum, she probably
51:13
won't mind me saying that. She listens to this podcast and
51:16
actually she loves a good shout out.
51:18
She tells me every every time she hears it, she's like, oh,
51:20
you shout me out. Hey, Mama.
51:21
Johns, we love you. She at 1:00.
51:24
Point had Do you remember that song?
51:27
That was like, I like the way you move?
51:32
So she had that as her ringtone and then her text tone was just
51:40
honestly, that was so love. That I'm here.
51:43
I feel like I have. PTSD from hearing that little
51:47
bit from my mum's phone going off all the time.
51:49
Because it was back in the days where I feel like it was like
51:52
you got 100 characters in a text message and it was like 30 free
51:57
texts a day. And so my mum would like finish
52:01
work and she'd come home and she'd be texting like, I don't
52:03
know who her colleagues who would think my dad, but he was
52:06
in the same room. So who knows?
52:08
Like a benzie. Mate, so it's probably like me
52:11
and you now well Benzie mate M8 Yeah and it would just.
52:18
Come constantly go oh, oh, oh, oh, and I'd be like because you
52:23
could buy your. Ringtones and text tones back
52:25
then because I think she. Did I think the numbers on the
52:28
back of a magazine? Yeah, I remember.
52:30
I remember that so well. What a song.
52:34
Do you remember the little the guitar bit was like?
52:40
I can. Always remember that, like
52:41
little riff at the beginning. So good.
52:44
Yeah. What a voice, though.
52:46
What a voice. His voice was incredible.
52:48
I used to absolutely love that song.
52:50
So there we go. If you haven't listened to In
52:53
the Shadows by the Rasmus and you've got a little emo streak
52:56
in you, go on Spotify, have an actually go on YouTube and have
53:00
a watch of the music video because that was also banging.
53:03
That was like a. Proper naughties music video
53:06
wasn't it. I just remember there being.
53:07
Like lots of like crows and stuff.
53:10
I don't know whether that was this one or whether that was
53:12
guilty, but that was very much his.
53:14
Like that was this one. Ghost he was.
53:16
Very dark, yeah, very Pagan, I was thinking.
53:21
Very CBBC's Raven. I feel like he was going.
53:25
Home and getting out his like Norse God cards and like you
53:29
know his crystals like bit like me now.
53:32
You are what is he called? What is the van called?
53:37
Rasmus the Rasmus. You are the Rasmus.
53:41
I was trying to tip my head. Down.
53:43
I don't know his name if I brushed it.
53:45
All forward and just sort of like did this, then I'd probably
53:47
go away with it. Well, there we go.
53:51
You never know. This is foreshadowing of our
53:55
podcast in the future. Me.
53:57
Turning into an e-mail again. I'm here for it.
54:00
I'm here. I know you are.
54:02
I know you are too. So there we go.
54:07
So here we are, at the end of yet another episode.
54:12
Thank you so much for listening. We have loved having you here
54:15
with us every week and. If you enjoyed this episode,
54:18
don't forget you can follow us on Spotify and it really, really
54:21
helps push our podcast out to new people.
54:24
Oh yeah, and next week we are heading back over to McFly for
54:27
one of our favourites from this album.
54:30
But apparently an unpopular opinion amongst McFly fans.
54:35
Some people are not big fans of this song, but we are chucking
54:39
on our wet suits, we're grabbing our boards and we're heading
54:42
Outback Man to catch some waves. Because next week it's Surfer
54:47
Babe. Oh my goodness.
54:49
I cannot wait, but until then, keep your playlist loud and
54:55
happiness. In your hearts, goodbye, bye.
