Blind Melon · Deprogrammed Music Podcast

0:33
Did you program the podcast where we try to get you into a
0:38
band? Today's band is going to show us
0:41
nothing but rain or no rain. Hey oh boy melon, we're talking
0:47
about Blind Melon today. I might as well be short about
0:51
it and then make it longer inexplicably because that is the
0:55
Justin way. So, this one came about Peter,
0:58
you put them up in the de program chat.
1:01
You said, hey, have you done? And melon yet.
1:04
And was this just a short discography?
1:06
Is this just a band you've been interested in?
1:10
It's a band that I've been interested in and I was just
1:12
listening to them one night and I was like have you guys done an
1:15
episode about them yet? If not, let's do it.
1:19
Simple. Is that sometimes?
1:20
So so you were listening to them.
1:22
So is this is this a band that's kind of just always been on the
1:25
radar for you or yesterday? I first when I first became
1:33
aware of Shannon Hoon because he did some backing vocals for Guns
1:39
and Roses on their user lose, an album makes sense.
1:41
So in the video for don't cry. I'm like who's that dude with
1:44
Axl? It's not like later on like
1:48
Blind Melon comes out their first album and they're like
1:50
yeah that's the guy that was singing with Axl and I was like
1:52
I'll check them out and I thought that they were a great
1:55
band and then their second album came out and I which I've also
1:59
thought was great but that's Kind of got overlooked by a lot
2:03
of people, I think, and then tragically passed away.
2:07
So, yeah, they've been on the radar.
2:10
You toss them in the deprogram chat.
2:12
You said, hey, it's only three records and immediately Jenny
2:16
cause I'm in. So, so talk to me about Blind
2:19
Melon, was this just you seizing the opportunity to jump into a
2:24
band? You hadn't or Is Blind, Melon, a
2:26
band that you were into and just like, oh yeah, how haven't we
2:29
done this yet? No, I've definitely been in.
2:31
To they kind of fell off my radar for several years.
2:35
I mean, like everybody else. Like I listen to them in the
2:37
90s. I love the first two albums.
2:39
I didn't realize that the third one even existed until about
2:43
like 45 years ago. Like, I don't know how it
2:47
happened. It was probably one of those
2:48
Spotify algorithms things where like all of a sudden one song
2:52
just kind of started jumping to the top of my list and I was
2:57
like, oh man, this is really good.
2:59
I got to get back into him and they just They've been in my
3:02
rotation like pretty heavily ever since.
3:05
So it was I was just had to jump at the chance to talk about them
3:10
because I definitely have I think I even have a greater
3:14
connection with them now than I did when I first listened back
3:18
in the 90s. So I love to hear that because
3:23
that means you know things change and you know, sound-wise
3:27
will get into all that stuff but our next Panelists here.
3:32
Brian, I don't mm, a have been like the next day.
3:35
It wasn't that long after it. You said, hey yeah, sure, I'll
3:38
jump in on Blind. Melon is this excuse the term?
3:41
Blind Faith. Or is this a band that was
3:44
already on the radar? It wasn't on the radar but I
3:49
have a drink of doing episodes for dead artists.
3:53
It's true. My episode for Stevie Ray
3:57
Vaughan, just got put up today. So I have meatloaf Mac Miller
4:02
and Stevie Ray Vaughan. So I figured hey, look at
4:04
another dead artists. Let's let's do it.
4:08
Jump in on Tom Petty. Where I love their first album
4:28
so much and I played it constantly.
4:31
Well, I never went beyond it and I no idea why I have no reason
4:35
for it. I have no like this.
4:39
It's just for some reason. I just never listen to soup
4:43
until like recently. I was happy to you know Jump In
4:49
You Know listen to the rest of their discography past the first
4:52
album and I feel you know also it's going to get it out there
4:58
that they do have other reason because what's the think that
5:02
they only have one song? That's true.
5:06
That's very true. Which brings they are not.
5:09
They are not a one-hit wonder. Relationship with them is is
5:17
probably very similar to most of the world's who is, you know,
5:21
somewhere around our ages. For some reason in my head
5:26
there, there this line of my mom's band versus, you know,
5:34
even though it's the same era versus when alternative, you
5:39
know that alt-rock 90s alt Rock. Became my genre Blind, Melon
5:44
somehow, Is on the prior side of that and, you know, it could
5:50
just be because, you know, the no rain comes out.
5:54
And, you know, for some reason, the be girl, my mom lumps that
6:00
on my sister, which is probably a whole thing for Aaron but, you
6:05
know, so like it's, I remember my mom having that record.
6:09
I remember my mom listening to that record, but I don't
6:12
remember the record at all. I, you know, the only thing,
6:15
That sticks out is, you know, Aaron becoming be girl and you
6:21
know, no rain obviously. Like that's the only memory I
6:24
have from it. So it's bizarre that they became
6:32
that overtime for me as opposed and, you know, obviously the one
6:35
song is the one that's lived on for them.
6:38
So, at some point, they shifted from my mom's band, to one-hit
6:42
wonder in my brain and I never I never took the time.
6:46
So here's the here's the time, you know Peter, you put it up,
6:50
three albums, it's not a ton of a ton of work here.
6:54
It came to 40 songs which technically it's 39 but it came
6:58
to 40 songs. So it's right at that. 20 song,
7:01
line. How did you go about putting
7:04
your list together for this one? I had about 10 songs that I was
7:11
like, this is definitely going on and then it was just a matter
7:14
of going back and re listening to those three albums and being
7:17
like, okay, what can I use to fill out the remaining 10 slots?
7:22
Yeah. So same question to you, Jenny.
7:25
Like, I mean, you know, lately you've been just kind of a let's
7:29
listen and just take it as it goes but this isn't isn't deep.
7:33
Did you take the same approach? Yeah, it was probably very
7:37
similar to Peter's. Like, before I even started,
7:39
listening, I had at least like, four or five songs that just off
7:43
the top of my head were instant, they have to be on my list and
7:47
then it was just a matter of like picking them out.
7:51
And I wish I could say that like I had some strategy or plan of
7:57
like I want to fill out these types of sounds or whatever, but
8:00
I think this time, I just kind of went with favorites.
8:04
I didn't I Play the game too hard.
8:06
I just went with the ones that that hit home for me, so and it
8:12
was, it was definitely fun. Listening to the newest album
8:18
just to kind of see like, where they would have gone if they had
8:21
continued and trying to find some songs off of that, you
8:25
know. But it was it was definitely
8:27
unfinished. So it was hard for me to choose
8:32
from that one, so much. Well, I get a spoiler.
8:35
Yeah. So you know we swing it over to
8:39
you Brian. Like, was there any gamesmanship
8:42
here at sounds like nobody? Nobody went with any
8:44
gamesmanship. Did you just kind of pick your
8:46
faves? Yeah, my first passed in every
8:50
single song from the first album.
9:22
It was hard to like separate things.
9:24
So I just had to go with my favorites and pretty much what I
9:27
went with. So for me, I think I don't know
9:31
that I even put it in there, I think it was like maybe 27 on my
9:35
first pass and you know then it just becomes which one which
9:41
one's felt, right. I went with feeling / favorite a
9:45
lot. I, you know, there, I don't
9:50
think there's that much room for any gamesmanship really here to,
9:55
you know, back up. What Jenny was saying is I don't
9:58
think Think it's not a lot of stuff so there's not the only
10:04
thing we have going against us is that there's four of us and
10:07
that means it could go, you know, it could go horribly awry
10:12
but there isn't. It's not like there's so many
10:15
different sounds that you know, Peter could be hiding in one
10:18
corner of the discography. I could be hiding in another
10:20
it's it's pretty straightforward and you can kind of tell, you
10:25
know, it's there's going to be a couple times where we're going
10:28
to hit Her just because of personal choices and, you know,
10:33
we'll see how that ends up, which brings us to the next
10:38
question. Peter for the final say and when
10:42
you do, you think we're going to get three unanimous, Shit, I've
10:50
been really bad at these last few times I've done them.
10:54
I'm gonna, I'm gonna be optimistic and I'm going to say
10:57
six. Okay.
11:00
What do you think? Jenny, I'm going to be more
11:02
optimistic when you hear something wild.
11:05
I mean, besides me just being optimistic to begin with.
11:07
I'm going to say eight. I like it.
11:14
I like it big swings. Not much room for you.
11:18
Good to go further up, Brian, where do you want to go?
11:22
How's that going? So, I mean, we're a four-person
11:26
panel, but there's only 40 songs and we're just going back for.
11:31
I was actually going to, I was actually gonna say either six or
11:33
seven. So I I'm gonna slide right in
11:38
there. I don't know why I'm being
11:39
optimistic because I always am. I was wrong.
11:42
So yeah, I'm gonna, yeah, I always say like seven or six
11:46
things like to sew but I'm still going to say seven.
11:49
Okay. All right.
11:51
Well, You guys got all the good ones.
11:54
So do I take the safe 50? Do I go the ultra optimistic
11:59
nine or do I go super ass pessimistic and go even lower
12:05
than 5? I feel like, I feel like it
12:08
can't be lower than 5, right? Like you even even if we're
12:13
hitting a lot of two's, like there's got to be at least five
12:16
songs that all are all of us are like, yeah, there's not a whole
12:20
lot of songs. I mean, just odds.
12:22
Right odds? Are that we're going to hit a
12:24
lot of unanimous. But nine does feel like Ultra
12:31
optimist. So II side with you guys in the
12:37
net 6 or better range, but, you know, since none of them are
12:40
available, I'm going to go five, I'm going to go five, take it
12:44
safe. And with that, though, we're
12:48
going to take a quick pause, and when we come back, you won't
12:51

13:33
game is deprogram, the four of us have come through the Blind
13:36
Melon discography. Which?
13:37
Yes, James Duval, three records not to and plucked out. 20 songs
13:42
that were now going to mesh together in an attempt to create
13:45
a top 10 certificate for you. In case you have never given
13:49
Blind Melon. Be chance.
13:51
Which, how dare you? Well, you know, I say that I
13:54
didn't either. So, I don't think this is a Is
13:58
anybody who's done enough of these knows where I went where I
14:02
like to go first. And you know, I've tried to
14:05
avoid it sometimes recently because sometimes I feel like
14:09
later in the discography they do it better.
14:12
But man why avoid this? It's a great track.
14:15
It's a great track one, its track one on album, one God I
14:19
love when you can you can Loop me in to what your band is in
14:23
the very first song I hear. So soak this in Yes, yes, yes.
14:30
There we go. That's not That's one of the
14:35
answers, we got. This first album has, like,
14:45
almost kind of like a jam band type 5 but not quite there.
14:49
That's exactly what I was going to say about my first pick,
14:52
which is they toe the line of being to Jami and they just
14:57
stopped and they reel it back in which is why they're not a jam
15:00
band because they know when to reel it in well and it's it's
15:05
cool because it you know, if I would have been into them then I
15:13
think It becomes easy, you can go either way, like, you can, it
15:17
can get you into Jam music. Like you can be into it from
15:21
there because you can expand that or it can keep you in the
15:26
know of what's going on in Jam music without having to take
15:30
those. You know, 20-minute Jam
15:32
sessions. I mean it, what is it really?
15:36
It's really adding pop sensibility to, to a jam band,
15:39
right? Like It ultimately that's what
15:41
especially this first record is. Which pop pop, sensibility is,
15:47
critically important if you want to make money in the music Biz.
15:51
So also got to mention just how unique of a voice he has.
15:57
Oh yeah, I you know, I kept getting notes of it because it's
16:02
it's funny like we brought up Axl a bunch in the chat.
16:06
Like there's there's times where like he is reaching that axle
16:09
like Stratosphere. I'm like, oh shit.
16:11
Like look at him go and then There's other times where he's
16:14
like, right on on, you know, like a Perry Farrell and then
16:18
there's other times, where it's like, what is this?
16:20
Like this is neither those guys. This is this is something
16:22
completely different. Yeah, so soak this in.
16:28
There we go, there we go. All right, Peter.
16:33
I'm gonna do another track 1. This is on their second album
16:37
soup and it was the first single its Galaxy.
16:41
Yes I got it. Got it.
16:47
Hey I'm three. Boom.
16:52
Boom. And boom.
16:55
All right, Jenny. All right, I got to go with the
16:58
one that kind of brought them back into my life, a few years
17:02
back. And it I was obsessed with this
17:05
song for a minute there. Tones of home.
17:09
Oh yes. Got it.
17:11
Me too nice. That was the one that like you,
17:17
you hear them starting to jam out and then it's like, no,
17:21
let's just put that hacky sack back away.
17:23
Just carry on with their lives. I could that was a that was a
17:27
single to, I like this song, specifically, I
17:43
Could Have Heard on, like the See you soundtrack?
17:45
If it's not on there, I'd be shocked or if it isn't or if it
17:50
is on, if it isn't on there, I'd be shocked if it is on there.
17:53
I wouldn't be shocked because it just reminds me of the the cause
17:58
head so much. All right, Brian.
18:06
So, all right, I'm gonna do the one, I'm gonna go basic bitch, I
18:15
I'm gonna go with the mean with the be girls with no rain.
18:19
Absolutely. Yep.
18:23
No. Oh I knew I knew somebody would
18:28
have it. I'm like someone's not going to
18:29
have it just because it's just because it's a meme.
18:33
So basically you know it's it's the one gamesmanship involved in
18:39
this episode. I feel like I think no rain is a
18:43
terrific song. And you know, when we get around
18:46
to it you know, on the next round, if everybody is insistent
18:49
I have no problem putting it through but I In good
18:53
conscience. Put it through unanimously
18:54
because I don't, it is a terrific song and in most
19:00
catalogs, it'd probably be like their best.
19:03
But I feel like that. I feel like no rain isn't what
19:06
they do. Like, just something about it.
19:11
It feels like it's almost not quite like creep, but like all.
19:17
Yeah. But yeah.
19:19
You know, like or yeah. Drags sucked out like where it's
19:26
like it's this great song but to me it's not.
19:29
It isn't like I said, I have no problem putting it through if we
19:33
get to the next round and we're like, you know, this has to be
19:36
here but I couldn't in good conscience like no rain wasn't
19:40
what I was vibing to when I listened to to the compartment
19:46
on, I have it on my list but I have it.
19:48
I have the Stripped Away version that's on Miko, actually went On
19:52
better. Yeah, and I feel like like
19:55
that's that version of the song is more in line of what they do.
19:58
I agree. Wholeheartedly actual, I have to
20:01
say that I completely disagree that this is not what they do,
20:07
only because if you listen to it on the album and I did really
20:11
strike me how much of an album track it was until I was
20:15
listening to it for this for this show.
20:20
Like if you listen to it in order, Or like you here?
20:24
Well, let me backtrack a little bit.
20:25
What? I listen to this song when I was
20:27
younger, I was like, I love the b-girl video.
20:29
Like I love the symbology of like, you know, she finds her
20:32
people like I was like, this is fucking great.
20:34
This is, this is me, you know, I'm the fucking be girl, you
20:38
know? And it wasn't until I got back
20:42
into them. And this is where like I kind of
20:44
went on a different Journey with with their music, it wasn't
20:48
until like a few years ago, I listened to it again and I was
20:51
just like holy shit. The songs about depression, it
20:54
never struck me that way, like, I've dealt with depression my
20:59
entire life but like taking that, you know, 15 years out of
21:03
listening to the song and like cut it just kind of was just
21:06
there on the surface. It was, you know, like you said,
21:09
it was a meme. It was, it was always on the
21:12
radio, like, you just don't listen to it, but when you
21:15
listen to it in the, the album, like you get changed and then
21:20
you get No rain and then I can't remember the song that was that
21:24
right after that. But like, oh deserted like
21:29
there's a journey with those three songs and in that middle
21:34
part in the rain, he's like kind of finding the joy in living
21:39
with depression. Like just listen to those three
21:44
songs in order and it's a totally different experience
21:47
when you think about it in those terms of like the emotional
21:51
Journey that you're going through.
21:53
On that that part of the album. That's all I got to say.
21:58
I mean I'm not I'm not going to be he'll know when we get there
22:06
but I don't know man it just it just didn't there's so many
22:11
sounds that that appealed to me so much more than that song.
22:16
So that was that was the big reason I held it out.
22:20
All right, I get it though and I will say that like if it comes
22:24
down to it, like I would not be opposed.
22:27
We're getting way ahead of, but I was gonna say I wouldn't be
22:31
opposed to putting the other one through just because it's
22:34
something that we haven't heard yet.
22:35
Yeah. So most people haven't heard
22:37
yet. It also depends on like you know
22:39
how much we get through and you know, that's that's conversation
22:42
for later. So yeah.
22:46
Okay. All right so I'll jump down a
22:49
little Bit down my my order here.
22:57
How about dump truck? Yes.
23:03
I don't have that one. That's all right.
23:12
He can find what's going on elsewhere in the discard.
23:16
All right Peter Do you like this is, this will be a home run, but
23:22
I I've had my beliefs challenge especially like the Radiohead
23:27
Championship Edition but I'm going to go with change.
23:32
Yes. Oh yes.
23:34
Yep. Got it.
23:36
Oh, thank God. Yeah.
23:38
Yeah, he has the lyrics to change right now on his
23:41
gravestone. So I mean it's the first song I
23:47
ever wrote to. Yeah.
23:51
That's good. I think what's funny here is
23:58
Jenny's point about no rain being just behind the song.
24:01
I think, what's funny, if I had listened to this harder when I
24:07
was younger, maybe I could have heard no rain the way you're
24:12
talking about. This time but I had you know in
24:17
preparing for this I had just listened to change a connected
24:21
to change and was yeah fuck yeah that's in and then no rain comes
24:25
up. I'm like yeah but I've heard
24:26
this a million times and yeah, I mean I get it, I put it through
24:32
a, I definitely put it through my first pass.
24:35
I was like, I don't want to be that guy, I don't want to have
24:37
like no reason for having it or for not having it.
24:40
So I like I said, you know, we won't drag this out, but I Think
24:45
I do think what you're talking about.
24:46
In my case, worked against it. Gotcha.
24:52
All right. So changes, Peter Ginny.
24:55
All right, I'm going to pick a stupid one.
24:58
Because who doesn't love an upbeat song?
25:03
About a serial killer and telling skin for arts and
25:06
crafts. He's just got a Pinterest all
25:10
the song skinned? Yeah.
25:15
Yeah man. I should've went with my gut.
25:19
That was one of the other fucking love that song.
25:21
I love it too and I looked at it, I was like oh it's a little
25:24
less than 2 like it's kind of bizarre.
25:27
There's no way. No one.
25:28
There's no way anybody else can have it.
25:31
Hey, it's got to Tech. I mean, who doesn't like a song
25:35
inspired by Ed Gein? Like just I don't know man.
25:41
I over thought the room there. Come on, man.
25:46
Come on. It's gonna happen.
25:49
All right, Brian. Go with.
25:58
Yes. No.
26:08
I'm going to assume that's a no from Peter as well.
26:11
Can you hear me? I said now.
26:13
I said yes. Oh yes.
26:15
Okay cool. It's a three.
26:16
Okay. Yeah, three Justin stepping all
26:19
over me tonight. I don't this one.
26:26
I don't have a reason for like I think this might have just been,
26:29
Something's Gotta Go. So it's so good.
26:32
It's new, it's half my list with a star Maybe.
26:50
Yes. Yes. it's funny how like,
27:09
There's the thing about the first record it.
27:11
The first record is great, but I feel like it pigeons holds
27:16
itself like if you didn't fall in love with it, then you
27:21
probably couldn't go back. Like I don't see myself, I loved
27:25
it but I don't see myself going back to that one.
27:27
Much going forward. Whereas I don't know if it's
27:32
just because I know you know, it doesn't have no rain and I was
27:37
just more open to Ooh it but like soup has this.
27:40
This is like like I was like it has notes of Jane's Addiction
27:44
like he's this song. Specifically sounds like Perry a
27:46
lot. Yeah, it kind of scratches that
27:51
that itch that I always have preferred 90s old.
27:55
So I think that's kind of, I see myself visiting soup a lot more
28:00
often than the first record. All right, shoe before was me.
28:05
So Peter. Um, I'm gonna go to Nico and
28:11
pick a song that was probably meant for soup, which is the
28:16
song stoop. Yes, no.
28:26
Two's aren't dead yet though. I don't think actually you know
28:30
what, let me expand this so I can make sure I'm not talking
28:34
out of my ass. We got what?
28:37
Four four and six. So technically the twos are
28:41
still alive until we get more threes or more unanimous.
28:45
Whichever happens first. All right, Jenny.
28:48
Okay, let's see what I want to do.
28:53
Um, how about sleepy house? I've got it.
29:01
I got it. Nice.
29:04
I thought this was probably one of the few times I did.
29:06
Kind of think about the shaping the list with different types of
29:09
sounds like this one was a very like mellow, you know, I don't
29:15
know how to describe it. It's not really acoustic but
29:17
kind of but it has that feeling. Yeah, I got you.
29:21
Yeah. There was definitely a lot of
29:22
times where, Yeah. Like it feels like it feels
29:27
acoustic e and and I don't know how to explain it either.
29:33
I'm launching into this like but it's definitely not an acoustic
29:37
song so you know, I'm going to leave it there.
29:40
You said it best why? I'm trying to add to what you're
29:44
saying. All right, Brian.
29:49
All right, so I'm gonna go back to the first album.
29:52
This song is kind of special for me because alone I used to play
29:59
it for my daughter and she was like very little to dance around
30:02
the living room paper scratcher. No, no, I got it.
30:25
Back to me. How about toes across the floor?
30:33
Yes, yes. Hey That put me right at my
30:41
five. Don't put this pressure on me,
30:46
folks, we need at least one more.
30:55
I remember this video pretty well, but from back in the day,
30:57
too. It was like, oh my God, that's
31:03
what I'm saying. Don't put this pressure on me.
31:05
We need to get another one. all right, Peter Let's see.
31:21
Um, I'm going to stay on that album and I'm gonna go with
31:26
lemonade. Hey, I got it.
31:30
No, I got it. Some of these I wish I had more
31:37
to say like about why I have it. Yeah.
31:41
You too. Some it's just like yeah I liked
31:45
it so limited and Snoop and soup.
31:49
It's a good combo. It's true.
31:51
That's very true. All right Jen.
31:55
Um how about The Pusher from Nico?
31:58
I've got it. Yes.
32:01
Hey me too nice. I felt like that one was gonna
32:07
be a single if they didn't actually release it because I
32:10
didn't know about it much later. But it feels like a single.
32:16
I think there was a single from that album, but it wasn't this
32:19
song. What's funny is because we were
32:26
just talking about like you know, them doing an acoustic E
32:29
song but it isn't acoustic whereas this is right.
32:35
So I kept, you know, as I'm listening to it, I kept waiting
32:38
for the shoe to drop because, you know they hadn't done that.
32:41
And I think that is, ultimately what made it stick out to me, is
32:44
the fact that it, you know, they do that a couple times on Nico
32:48
but this song specifically, like I'm waiting for the shoe to drop
32:52
but it doesn't and I'm like, oh, okay.
32:53
Like it's got We invested. This is a great, great sound.
32:57
I dig it. What you go.
32:58
Well done. All right, Brian.
33:04
So I don't know, one by my math here in great condition, we are
33:08
officially out of the Tuesday right to her out.
33:10
Yeah, we got the we have we have 11 threes right?
33:15
Yeah. Okay.
33:22
Let's go. Yes.
33:28
Yep that was actually the last one I wrote.
33:32
Like as we were starting the show is like oh I miscounted.
33:35
Here we go time. And if they weren't done, the
33:41
2's are officially dead now. Like, yeah, terrible.
33:45
Twos are done. But you know, that being said,
33:49
technically, they are not because Peter has the final say,
33:53
so, who knows? All right.
33:56
So let's see. Time was Brian.
33:59
So we're back around to me. Let me see what I got left here.
34:01
123456789 still, plenty of gameplay.
34:07
Only got five left. Look at you.
34:10
I mean, I feel like you've had almost everything.
34:12
Every single thing I've had yet. That's I mean that's cool.
34:20
You know? I mean like do something right
34:23
for once. Yeah let's go most of the time
34:26
how dare you? Um I'm gonna go with I'll try an
34:31
Eco track. How about that?
34:32
All that I need. Now that was a light cut.
34:37
Wow am I the first one in into the dumpster?
34:41
Yep. Yeah.
34:46
We got we got we got pretty far from the other one.
34:50
I, you know, I think the only gamesmanship I did to myself you
34:55
know, when outthink trying to outthink the room was, I think I
34:59
gave not that Nico doesn't deserve a couple in there.
35:04
I think I might have given one or two songs too much so I think
35:09
I ended up with four. So all right, Peter I'm gonna go
35:18
back to soup again st. Andrews fall.
35:22
Yes. So I have st.
35:26
Andrews Hall from Nico as I like that better but I don't have a
35:32
problem with it either way. So I've got full so, maybe We
35:43
can, we can discuss which one we take.
35:48
I'm going to put Put both through and then we can decide
35:53
which one we want to take. But technically, since he called
36:00
fall and playful, and then we'll cross that really know what's
36:05
going to happen. All right.
36:26
How about Kick-Ass? Duke, the Duke?
36:29
I got it. Yes, I don't know, surprisingly.
36:37
I mean, I feel like I had to just say it.
36:40
Like, okay, guys, Duke All right, Brian.
36:48
How about see through a tree? Yes.
36:55
No. Yes.
36:59
Oh God. Okay, I keep scrolling past this
37:19
one. How about verney?
37:21
Yes, what I was going to say next.
37:23
You guys keep doing this to me. I don't have it three.
37:30
I fucking love that song so much in three.
37:35
All right, Peter. How about Drive?
37:47
I love that one though, and I remember like looking at it and
37:51
I didn't add it for some reason, but you know I could only choose
37:56
half of them. Yeah, it's true.
37:59
Yeah. Now this one.
38:04
God, who knows? Who knows?
38:07
I don't know at all. All right, Jenny you mean, I
38:12
only have to only have two left, just going to say, you got to be
38:14
closer. Um so I'm going to go with soul
38:19
one from Nico. Yes.
38:24
No, I have no reason. No reason, I think I like if you
38:35
listen to the first album like extended or whatever, there's a
38:40
version of it on there too, that I liked a little bit better but
38:43
it wasn't on the list to consider.
38:45
So I what would the Nico version?
38:49
All right, Brian. All right, let me try to pull.
39:04
Hi Donna. I mean, at least the positives
39:10
of a 2 means at least we're not making the conversation harder.
39:16
Right, two, three, four. I'll finish the trio.
39:25
Jenny was talking about earlier deserted.
39:30
Nope. Wait, was that a no Jenny,
39:35
that's a no. By myself, I see.
39:41
This isn't a bad time to hit the missus.
39:47
Yeah, well I only have one. I only have three songs left.
39:56
So, what we'll do is since Jenny only has one left, will just
40:00
finish this round and then the three of us will dump after
40:03
this. All right, Peter I wonder.
40:11
Yes. Yes.
40:13
No. But it does make our work.
40:18
I wonder why I didn't pick it. All right, well, we have to
40:24
wonder no more because it's your picture any, my last one is
40:29
swallowed who I've got it. All right.
40:51
Bright. I like that song.
41:09
Okay. Alright well my last one is
41:12
Wilt. Now.
41:18
All right, Peter, I was just disappointed.
41:20
It wasn't about Wilt Chamberlain.
41:23
My last one is walk mind you. Okay, so we're all done.
41:30
Look, we played it all the way out.
41:31
Was the fastest, doesn't fastest game ever played.
41:40
All right, so before we go further, because we got seven,
41:43
which was no Brian. No Brian.
41:47
Yeah, so Brian will get our final.
41:50
Yes, yeah. All righty. 45.
41:55
So okay, before we go on to the next part, let's decide do we
41:59
want fall or Hall? Okay, so we will drop Hall.
42:14
It's like that version better. I'll leave that one there
42:21
because Jenny technically had Hall so it still has all right,
42:28
there we go. So let's what the fuck do.
42:31
The thing that you're supposed to do Oh my God.
42:38
Zita a please. Thank you.
42:41
All right, so here are seven. Soak this in tones of home,
42:45
change to buy for totes across the floor, toes across the
42:49
floor. I can read st.
42:50
Andrews fall and The Pusher we've already got really good
42:54
album representation to. So I feel like that doesn't come
42:58
into play here at all, right. Now, I'm not really alright.
43:06
And so since Bryan has the final say, basically, the group has
43:11
two and then Brian gets one. So, here are the threes.
43:15
I wonder. No rain sleepy house.
43:19
See do a tree time. Galaxy Vernie.
43:25
The Kick-Ass Duke mouth full of cavities.
43:29
Lemonade and swallowed Peters are one jumping out at you.
43:36
Other than the obvious one. Probably.
43:40
I really think Galaxy needs to be on there.
43:43
All right. Brian.
43:44
You're the holdout got anything against Galaxy.
43:49
No, no, I can. We listen to it first?
43:59
I like this little intro with the horn with the horns.
44:02
I like that. It comes back on the last long
44:05
lemonade. Oh yeah.
44:09
Like like the wall. When I was a teenager I always
44:15
felt like this is what New Orleans sounded like like you
44:19
just walk into town and this is what it sounds like.
44:21
I get that I get that. This was like the first single
44:26
from soup and when it kicks in elves out to go shit like this
44:32
is what they're up to now. Big turkey because it's like
44:37
really slow and then it like grabs you by the face.
44:46
No, it's funny. I'm glad I stuck this one out
44:49
because when I first heard it I thought it was just like going
44:51
to be an intro. Track was like, oh, okay, well
44:54
this is an easy cut and I was like, well let me just keep
44:56
listening and I was like, oh wait no, it does something
45:00
different All right, so same question to you.
45:05
Jenny, is there a 3 here that you're looking at there?
45:07
Like now that that's probably should go in.
45:11
It's really hard for me to say, what should go in.
45:15
I think we've got, we've got some really solid songs here
45:18
already. Like, as much as I like sleepy
45:23
house, I don't know if we need it.
45:26
Okay I guess I mean I love that one but God that hurts.
45:39
Okay, so we've got four from soup, let's let me that.
45:43
Look at album representation. You know.
45:52
It's fine. I like skinned a lot.
45:55
I think it's a it's a fun fucking song about a murderer.
46:01
It wasn't it? Yes, kyndra's it too, isn't it?
46:06
Oh the listen looking at just has all of them in there.
46:09
Okay okay. So Because I was going to bring
46:18
that one back. If I had the final say, you know
46:22
what, I respect that? I respect that a lot about time.
46:31
Hmm. Let's see who I was the whole
46:34
thing about on that one. I remember, I was, I got nothing
46:38
against it. I'm cool with it.
46:40
Yeah, nah. All right.
46:44
So that brings us to 9, which brings us to a Brian's final
46:47
say. All right.
46:50
And guess what? I brought it up but we're about
46:52
to have a list of wine melon with no with no no rain because
46:58
because I was looking at that one too.
47:04
Yeah. Cool thought final say mouth
47:09
full of cavities in. There we go.
47:12
Look I'm not gonna like cell, you know, act like I'm all
47:17
triumphant here but I Right, who's right?
47:21
We know when it when it came down to it, when I was looking
47:24
at that the final say, I'm like, I'm looking at other threes and
47:29
I'm like, like I almost just went dick and Pulp and Paper,
47:33
scratching back out because you are my favorite songs.
47:37
Well, I'm with your so many threes and mouth full of
47:40
cavities is so fucking good. Like yeah, it had to be there.
47:45
I think if we only got five through, I think no rain gets
47:48
in. Yeah, yeah, I think the fact
47:51
that we got seven it just kind of made it Expendable.
47:54
So yeah. All right, well, it doesn't get
47:58
any easier. Peter.
48:00
So here's our 10 soak this in tones of home change two by four
48:04
toes across the floor st. Andrews fall.
48:07
The Pusher Galaxy time mouth full of cavities which one of
48:11
those is the one Because I'm looking at this, I'm trying to
48:18
I'm trying to see if there's one that kind of carries the sound
48:20
of the first album but also the second album.
48:35
Shit. Let's get weird with it.
48:42
How about toes across the floor? What do you think, Jenny?
48:50
I'm leaning towards soak the sin.
48:55
I like that it has like it has a very quintessential 90 sound.
49:02
That, you know, that was very unique to them, like it was the
49:05
very bare style, and like, that was the track.
49:09
One on that one too, right? Like you really adverse off, it
49:13
really kind of grabs you right off the bat.
49:16
I think I got to pick that one. What do you think, Brian?
49:22
So I was in Go, sing Vibe, but different song.
49:26
I was going to go with tones at home.
49:31
That was my, yeah. Yes, we are all three of them
49:44
really do. Grab it from suck you into the
49:47
list, but just for personal preference for me which I know a
50:05
little bit of each one. I mean that's gonna help that
50:07
will not help, but yes, Just for clarity sake, you know,
50:22
just to put this out there, these are the three songs I was
50:25
looking at two. So, I mean I'm always going to
50:29
lean towards a track 1, album one, just because the reasons I
50:34
say every time like I love, I love when you can do that.
50:39
So there's soak the sin. Here's tons of home which drives
50:45
the point home of that Jamie thing.
50:48
We are talking about where they Total Line.
50:55
I think that's the monkey. I do love.
50:59
It was like against it because they kind of sound and that
51:09
might turn somebody off. If that's like the one song that
51:13
you give them I will say. This one is aged.
51:19
Like where as you know, maybe it's this feels very dead.
51:26
Whereas soak the sin doesn't weirdly.
51:29
Yeah, let's do just dessert. It was across the floor.
51:45
I will save the thing that toes across like I think Peter put it
51:48
perfectly. Let's get weird with it.
51:50
Because who would see this coming?
51:55
And it's not, it's not like this isn't what they do because
51:59
obviously it is the four of us, chose it.
52:03
I think it, I think it's a bizarre choice, but I think it
52:09
has a chance of doing something like, getting some run in the
52:14
best of episode. Hey Kitt.
52:18
I think it also has a balance of the first album in the second
52:21
album. Like the verses are very first
52:24
album but this whole little like part right now like those is
52:30
experimental and more soupy. I do so since you asked for it,
52:38
Jenny, we've done the thing did oh, God damn it.
52:42
Did any of those three? Listen, actually listening to
52:46
them. Did it change change you any?
52:47
Did it change? Your yesi know?
52:56
Like, I think what I love about them is that they they were a
53:00
grunge band that weren't that wasn't really a grunge band.
53:03
Like they kind of had this like hate.
53:04
Hippie influence also and that's tones of home is like a real
53:09
close second to that. Did listening to it, change your
53:17
mind, any Brian. Made it worse because I do.
53:27
I do the opening of sofas and I feel like in the best of where
53:32
you get yelled at anyway for not having fucking no rain.
53:35
So good. I mean, I like the song and I
53:41
still say, yeah. No, no.
53:44
Um, it didn't help. It's me, it worse.
53:55
Same question to you listening to them sway, you at all.
53:59
Now I'm still sitting by toes. Across the floor.
54:04
Oh yes. Well I'll say this this is the
54:28
one thing that listening to the three of them did the listening
54:32
to the three of them eliminated tones at home for me because
54:36
okay. I think I think soak this in and
54:38
Toes across the floor, do what we want.
54:41
Better obviously we love tones of home, it made our list so you
54:46
know, it It's happy to be here. I think soak this in and Toes
54:52
across the floor to do. Do what we want equally.
54:56
Now the question is I think the only the only Advantage soak
55:01
this in has versus toes across the fort is the fact that it is
55:06
a, it's already a track one and it's already your first
55:10
impression of the band. So, you know, you push play on
55:14
this playlist. It's the same as if you listen
55:16
to the whole thing. I don't know if that gives it a
55:21
definitive Advantage but again we're splitting hairs here.
55:25
Oh like I, I can't make a decision, but I do think it's
55:31
between those two. You know, anybody really feel
55:38
free to, you know, make a stronger case for one or the
55:43
other or lay down your sword, whichever you want to do.
55:53
I mean Jen and I are both stubborn motherfuckers.
55:56
So this is true. Yeah, I love, I loved his across
56:02
the floor but like, it is a little bit of an oddball pick
56:08
and it was a single like, did it.
56:11
Did It win anybody over? When it came out, you know, like
56:15
did anybody say like oh, these are the guys did no rain, you
56:18
know? Lemons.
56:22
So I, all right. All right, so I'll say something
56:24
for something the same thing because For me, this is what
56:29
Sofas in is and because I couldn't get tons of I'm done.
56:33
I mean, telephone is fine, but I feel more people, like me only
56:40
know the first album and besides no Ranger video on the radio,
56:45
everyone's introduction to find. Moans first album was soaked the
56:53
same and that was their first introduction and they kept
56:57
listen. Eating like it became that was,
57:07
that was the first song that brought everybody.
57:13
At the same time, like soup got ignored by the majority people
57:20
because they were sick of by Melanie.
57:23
My time green played for the 18th 18th time in a day, man.
57:32
Across the floor. I like that song too, I don't
57:37
know. Okay.
57:38
Okay. Okay.
57:39
If I had to go, if I had one, I'd probably go with soap.
57:46
Sadly, I just I just feel like It brought on because no rain
57:55
did, but it brought us into the album that nobody bought, can I
58:04
trust you? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
58:09
I feel like if people I mean I'm assuming like everyone's hurting
58:12
over and I mean you hear it in the grocery store, right?
58:14
So yeah. So if we put Sofas in at the top
58:19
and I have listened to that first and they're like, well,
58:22
this is just kind of like, no rain, and I'm not sure if I
58:24
like, I want a lot more of that, whereas, if you put toes across
58:28
the floor at top, and that's the first and that was totally like,
58:31
oh, these guys have range. I would agree with that if soak
58:38
the Sims sounded even remotely like no rain, but I think the
58:44
sound is just really different. I I think you have a good point.
58:48
I think both of you kind of dance around this point like
58:51
this would bring somebody into the second album that didn't get
58:54
as much attention that it deserves like soup is a
58:58
fantastic album like I could have picked every single song
59:02
from that album. Yeah.
59:05
Yeah, I when I listen to it all the way through man did I just
59:11
feel like what was I doing at my fucking life?
59:14
Like why did I not now? Now I have to go back and listen
59:18
to all Kimmel box because now I'm wondering.
59:20
Hey did I uh did I miss something?
59:23
Because like I suppose that sounds good.
59:27
Yeah I totally screwed the pooch.
59:33
I just I think I'm outnumbered here so
59:48
I'll lay down my sword and let's do Sofas in.
59:51
All right so he all right and you know just for again Clarity
59:56
sake. I do think I don't think clearly
1:00:00
that it was clear cut. That was not a clear-cut now
1:00:03
conversation, but I do think to your point.
1:00:06
I think think we're all kind of leading soak this in, at this
1:00:10
point. So, Let's do it.
1:00:14
That's our number one. Again, I didn't I didn't see our
1:00:18
number one being like the weight of the conversation.
1:00:20
So so this is our number one. Tones of home change two by four
1:00:25
toes across the floor. Seen Andrews Fault.
1:00:27
The Pusher Galaxy time and mouth full of cavities rounds out, our
1:00:31
10 left foot. Soak this in get a moment in the
1:00:33
Sun. Beautiful.
1:00:53
I think that is like the one of the longer.
1:00:56
Number one conversations. We've had on this program in a
1:00:58
