SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
7:54
SPEAKER_01: Do I?
7:55

7:57
SPEAKER_01: Um because I'm not a huge Carly Simon fan.
8:01
SPEAKER_02: I am not either.
8:03
SPEAKER_02: Um let me get this in here.
8:05
SPEAKER_01: I mean, I basically know who she is.
8:07
SPEAKER_01: That's about it.
8:09
SPEAKER_02: Right.
8:13
SPEAKER_02: So before this album came out.
8:15
SPEAKER_01: This sounds like something off the breakfast, the Breakfast Club.
8:18
SPEAKER_01: Right.
8:20
SPEAKER_00: Baby Caleb.
8:22
SPEAKER_00: Oh, I've heard this song.
8:23
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
8:24
SPEAKER_02: It's like soft rock.
8:25
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
8:25
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
8:25
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
8:28
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, sort of.
8:28
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
8:29
SPEAKER_02: So she uh obviously has been putting out albums since the 70s.
8:32
SPEAKER_02: Right.
8:33
SPEAKER_02: Right.
8:34
SPEAKER_02: And so she like her debut album was in 1971.
8:39
SPEAKER_02: It got to number 30 on the US charts.
8:41
SPEAKER_02: Uh Anticipation also got to number 30.
8:44
SPEAKER_02: She had a number one album in 72, uh, with one called No Secrets.
8:49
SPEAKER_02: And then number three, and then number 10, and then 29, and then 10.
8:53
SPEAKER_02: And then in 1979, she had one called Spy, which went to number 45, so she was slipping.
8:59
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
9:00
SPEAKER_02: Uh number 36 in 1980 with an album called Come Upstairs.
9:05
SPEAKER_01: Uh, and then number That may be the worst title for an album I've ever heard.
9:10
SPEAKER_01: Come upstairs.
9:11
SPEAKER_01: Come upstairs.
9:13
SPEAKER_01: She late for supper?
9:14
SPEAKER_00: Come upstairs! Oh, wait a minute.
9:16
SPEAKER_01: I gotta write that down.
9:18
SPEAKER_02: Uh 1981, an album called Torch was number 50.
9:23
SPEAKER_02: And uh 1983, Hello Big Man was was number 16.
9:31
SPEAKER_02: No wonder they're like terrible album names.
9:36
SPEAKER_02: And then in 1985, one called Spoiled Girl, which only hit number 88.
9:42
SPEAKER_02: So she was slipping.
9:43
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, big time.
9:44
SPEAKER_02: And then this album, Coming Around Again, was released in '87.
9:49
SPEAKER_02: And it it got up to 25.
9:51
SPEAKER_02: You hear that?
9:52
SPEAKER_02: That's my pipes.
9:53
SPEAKER_02: Oh, okay.
9:53
SPEAKER_02: I thought it was part of the song.
9:54
SPEAKER_03: I was like, what external is that?
9:58
SPEAKER_02: It's like there's air in the line or something that's okay.
10:01
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
10:01
SPEAKER_02: Uh yeah, it's percussion on Carlton.
10:05
SPEAKER_02: But coming around again went back up to number 25.
10:08
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
10:09
SPEAKER_02: So, but then the next album, which was three years later, went back to number 46.
10:15
SPEAKER_02: But they're calling this a comeback album.
10:17
SPEAKER_02: The the song?
10:19
SPEAKER_02: This album.
10:19
SPEAKER_02: This album.
10:20
SPEAKER_02: This album.
10:20
SPEAKER_01: Is it the one you're playing now?
10:22
SPEAKER_01: Is it off that album?
10:23
SPEAKER_02: Yes.
10:23
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
10:24
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so I can see where you you went from 88 in 1985 to 25 in 1987.
10:31
SPEAKER_02: So you did better.
10:32
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
10:33
SPEAKER_01: But would you call it a comeback?
10:35
SPEAKER_01: Comeback?
10:35
SPEAKER_01: I'm not I I think that's why it's at the bottom of the list, because it's not really much of a comeback.
10:41
SPEAKER_02: Right.
10:41
SPEAKER_02: I mean, it's a pr it's pretty good.
10:44
SPEAKER_02: And then in 1990, she released uh one that got to number 40.
10:49
SPEAKER_02: She released two albums in 1990.
10:51
SPEAKER_02: Uh one went to number 46, one went to number 60.
10:55
SPEAKER_02: In 1994, Letters Never Sent went to 129.
10:59
SPEAKER_01: Well, it's because she never sent it.
11:05
SPEAKER_02: So, but then she's and then she's been slipping.
11:08
SPEAKER_02: I never said it, anyway.
11:09
SPEAKER_02: She slipped ever since, and then she got to number seven in 2005 with Moonlight Serenade.
11:14
SPEAKER_02: I would think that would be the comeback.
11:16
SPEAKER_01: That's the comeback album right there.
11:17
SPEAKER_01: That's probably our highest charting album, isn't it?
11:20
SPEAKER_02: No, because she got to number one in 1972.
11:23
SPEAKER_01: Oh, but yeah, still, I mean, that was like 30 years.
11:26
SPEAKER_01: Right.
11:26
SPEAKER_01: So, I mean, that's the comeback album.
11:28
SPEAKER_01: Right.
11:29
SPEAKER_02: So, anyway, that's so that's Carly Simon.
11:32
SPEAKER_02: And the one that she tied with, I don't I don't think I agree with.
11:40
SPEAKER_02: I uh I can understand their reasoning for it.
11:45
SPEAKER_01: You don't agree that you don't agree it's a uh comeback album?
11:47
SPEAKER_01: Right.
11:48
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
11:50
SPEAKER_02: And I'll tell you why.
11:54
SPEAKER_02: Um because he had a couple of I'm not gonna call them stinkers because they charted really well.
12:08
SPEAKER_02: Um but for him, I guess they weren't what he Well I'll just tell you, I'll just tell you who it is.
12:20
SPEAKER_02: And I'll play this the the the the album I think is a comeback.
12:24
SPEAKER_02: Are you ready?
12:26
SPEAKER_01: Hear me.
12:29
SPEAKER_01: This is Springsteen's uh the one after 9-11.
12:32
SPEAKER_01: Right.
12:32
SPEAKER_01: The rising right, yeah.
12:34
SPEAKER_02: They're calling this a comeback album, they're calling it a comeback album.
12:36
SPEAKER_02: That's crap.
12:37
SPEAKER_02: And and here's the reason why I think it's crap, because I was looking at his disography.
12:43
SPEAKER_02: Born in the USA.
12:44
SPEAKER_02: Let's just start there.
12:45
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
12:46
SPEAKER_02: Number one.
12:46
SPEAKER_02: That was huge.
12:47
SPEAKER_02: Number one.
12:47
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
12:48
SPEAKER_02: Tunnel of Love.
12:49
SPEAKER_02: Also huge, number one.
12:51
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
12:52
SPEAKER_02: And then in 1992, he put out two albums in that year Human Touch and Lucky Town.
13:01
SPEAKER_02: And they weren't with the E Street band.
13:04
SPEAKER_01: Oh, okay.
13:05
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
13:05
SPEAKER_02: They were just, you know, ones that he threw people people together and there were some good songs on them.
13:11
SPEAKER_02: Uh Human Touch went to number two, and Lucky Town went to number three.
13:18
SPEAKER_02: Pretty good.
13:19
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
13:20
SPEAKER_01: For not having the E Street band.
13:22
SPEAKER_01: Right.
13:22
SPEAKER_02: And then he put out a folk album called The Ghost of Tom Job.
13:26
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, I remember that.
13:27
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
13:27
SPEAKER_01: Right.
13:27
SPEAKER_02: And that went to number 11.
13:30
SPEAKER_02: Um I guess on the pop charts.
13:35
SPEAKER_02: And then this one went to number one.
13:37
SPEAKER_02: That they're calling this a comeback.
13:38
SPEAKER_02: This is a comeback.
13:39
SPEAKER_02: This is a comeback.
13:40
SPEAKER_01: That's crap.
13:40
SPEAKER_01: I think so too.
13:42
SPEAKER_01: I mean, he That's just dumb.
13:44
SPEAKER_01: He didn't go anywhere.
13:45
SPEAKER_01: No.
13:46
SPEAKER_01: He just Number 11 is terrible.
13:48
SPEAKER_01: I mean, I suppose.
13:49
SPEAKER_01: I mean, if you're one number one, number dumb, number two.
13:53
SPEAKER_02: Right.
13:53
SPEAKER_01: You know.
13:55
SPEAKER_01: But it's not really a comeback album.
13:57
SPEAKER_01: Right.
13:57
SPEAKER_01: It's not like he was like destitute, you know.
14:01
SPEAKER_01: He was trying something else.
14:02
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
14:03
SPEAKER_01: You know?
14:03
SPEAKER_01: I get it.
14:04
SPEAKER_01: No, it's not a comeback album.
14:06
SPEAKER_01: As far as I'm concerned.
14:08
SPEAKER_02: Not gonna do it.
14:10
SPEAKER_02: Um, so next on the list at number 19, I'm I might agree with, um, but it's almost like it's a different band.
14:21
SPEAKER_02: Um this would be well, let's just I'll just play it.
14:31
SPEAKER_01: Yes.
14:32
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
14:36
SPEAKER_01: Because so this is the comeback album?
14:38
SPEAKER_02: This is the comeback album.
14:42
SPEAKER_02: Because if you look at their um discography, which I'm seeing and I don't understand why they call it a comeback album.
14:59
SPEAKER_02: Because let's look at well, they didn't really chart too much in the US.
15:07
SPEAKER_02: Um 1971, they hit number 40.
15:11
SPEAKER_02: Uh they also hit number four with Fragile.
15:14
SPEAKER_02: Close to the Edge, number three, number six, number five, number eight, number ten, number eighteen.
15:20
SPEAKER_02: This is U.S.
15:21
SPEAKER_02: charts, by the way.
15:22
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
15:23
SPEAKER_02: And then this one, which is an album called 90125, hit number five.
15:30
SPEAKER_01: How's that a comeback?
15:31
SPEAKER_02: Well, they went from number 18 in in 1980, and then three years later they hit number five.
15:36
SPEAKER_02: I think why they're calling it a comeback is because they had lost some members.
15:43
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
15:44
SPEAKER_02: And well, uh, you know what?
15:46
SPEAKER_02: This is ultimate classicrock.com, so let me just read it.
15:48
SPEAKER_02: Um, because they do have they do have some pretty good write-ups.
15:51
SPEAKER_02: Uh, a lot of the brilliance of Yes has come as a result of nearly constant conflict and inner turmoil.
15:56
SPEAKER_02: Good example remains 9010125, which was born out of the dissolution of the John Anderson list lineup that produced a single album.
16:04
SPEAKER_02: Uh, bassist Chris Squire picked up the pieces and established a new band called Cinema that incorporated South African guitarist Trevor Rabin alongside alumni Yes members.
16:15
SPEAKER_02: But a fresh reunion loomed when label executives questioned the commercial viability of Squire and Rabin's lead vocals.
16:22
SPEAKER_02: An Olive branch was extended to former lead vocalist John Anderson, who agreed to sing on the album.
16:27
SPEAKER_02: He helped Yes score a surprise number one hit with Owner of a Lonely Heart.
16:31
SPEAKER_02: They also landed a Grammy for the instrumental cinema.
16:33
SPEAKER_02: Nearly two years of touring followed, cementing the return to the top for Yes.
16:38
SPEAKER_02: So this essentially was a different band doing different kinds of music, and it also was the 80s.
16:47
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
16:48
SPEAKER_02: Right?
16:48
SPEAKER_02: They went from the 70s, because this and they're using like electronic drums and like stuff like this.
16:53
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
16:55
SPEAKER_02: Right?
16:56
SPEAKER_02: So this is essentially a different band, but John Anderson is singing.
17:00
SPEAKER_02: Uh and they called it yes.
17:02
SPEAKER_02: But is that really a comeback?
17:04
SPEAKER_01: I don't think it really is, man.
17:06
SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's again, it's at the bottom of the list, so maybe that's I'll take that in consideration.
17:13
SPEAKER_02: Maybe.
17:13
SPEAKER_02: Maybe.
17:14
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
17:15
SPEAKER_02: Um, all right, number 18.
17:17
SPEAKER_02: Um you it is it number 18?
17:20
SPEAKER_02: Yes, it is number 18.
17:21
SPEAKER_02: Um you will have probably uh a lot to say about.
17:26
SPEAKER_02: Um because I don't think I can understand why they call it a comeback.
17:35
SPEAKER_02: But um This is not a comeback.
17:45
SPEAKER_02: They're calling it one.
17:51
SPEAKER_01: Unless they're comparing it to uh St.
17:53
SPEAKER_01: Angers.
17:54
SPEAKER_01: They are.
17:54
SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's why.
17:55
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
17:56
SPEAKER_01: But it's not a comeback.
17:57
SPEAKER_01: It's not.
17:57
SPEAKER_01: They didn't go anywhere.
17:58
SPEAKER_01: They were they were nowhere, man.
18:00
SPEAKER_01: Right.
18:00
SPEAKER_01: I mean, they were just they were just, you know, St.
18:03
SPEAKER_01: Anger is just a blip on the radar.
18:05
SPEAKER_01: But you know what?
18:05
SPEAKER_01: When you listen to Saint Anger, it has some good moments.
18:09
SPEAKER_01: You know, Shane hates Saint Anger.
18:11
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
18:11
SPEAKER_01: Because it sounds like Lars is playing a tra, you know, a garbage can look.
18:15
SPEAKER_01: It does.
18:15
SPEAKER_01: You know?
18:16
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
18:16
SPEAKER_01: But they were but if you watch the By the way, we're talking about Metallica.
18:20
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Metallica.
18:21
SPEAKER_01: Uh if you watch the some kind of monster documentary.
18:24
SPEAKER_01: I did, yep.
18:25
SPEAKER_01: There they they were just like, you know, Bob Rock's like, well, Metallica just wanted to be in a you know a garage band.
18:31
SPEAKER_01: Right.
18:32
SPEAKER_01: And they and that's what it sounds like.
18:34
SPEAKER_01: It's a garage band.
18:35
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
18:36
SPEAKER_01: You know?
18:37
SPEAKER_01: And there's I there's actually a lot of songs on the St.
18:40
SPEAKER_01: Anger album that I like.
18:43
SPEAKER_02: I thought the the process was very interesting.
18:46
SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, it was very convoluted because uh James went into rehab halfway through it, and then when he came out, he was, you know, you know, he was a he was a different guy, and but he was more focused, I think.
19:00
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
19:01
SPEAKER_01: You know, so and he has been ever since.
19:03
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
19:03
SPEAKER_01: Really?
19:04
SPEAKER_01: I mean, he did he did another, he did uh he had he did have a relapse and uh whatnot, but but this is this is a great album.
19:13
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I you know I I love this album.
19:16
SPEAKER_02: Yep, me too.
19:17
SPEAKER_02: So I actually like this better than um the the next one that they did, which was Oh the um Rock I love this song so much.
19:30
SPEAKER_04: Call from the Reckies one more time.
19:33
SPEAKER_01: What was the name of that new album?
19:36
SPEAKER_02: Um was uh you would ask that.
19:40
SPEAKER_01: I know.
19:41
SPEAKER_01: I'm trying to think.
19:42
SPEAKER_02: I just have it pulled up on my iTunes and then I and then I because I went to the next band.
19:47
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
19:47
SPEAKER_02: Um What was it called?
19:48
SPEAKER_01: Jesus and Crow.
19:50
SPEAKER_01: That's awful.
19:50
SPEAKER_01: Hold on.
19:51
SPEAKER_02: Do I have it here somewhere?
19:53
SPEAKER_02: I probably do.
19:54
SPEAKER_02: I just don't know where.
19:55
SPEAKER_02: That's why it's called the Wall of Tunes.
19:57
SPEAKER_01: Yes.
19:57
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
19:58
SPEAKER_02: You're looking it up?
19:59
SPEAKER_02: God or now.
20:00
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know, because it's fucking me too.
20:04
SPEAKER_02: So again, I I I I don't know that I'd call that a comeback.
20:07
SPEAKER_01: It's not a comeback.
20:16
SPEAKER_02: So I like this is death, this is from Death Matic.
20:19
SPEAKER_01: Hardwired to self-destruct.
20:20
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
20:20
SPEAKER_02: See, I like Death Magnetic better than hardwired to self-destruct.
20:24
SPEAKER_02: I did too, actually.
20:25
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
20:25
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
20:25
SPEAKER_02: Um, so moving on to number 17.
20:33
SPEAKER_02: Now, this I probably would call a comeback.
20:37
SPEAKER_02: I think I may agree with this one.
20:39
SPEAKER_02: Um, because let me just look at their discography here.
20:49
SPEAKER_02: Where was it?
20:50
SPEAKER_02: Where was it?
20:51
SPEAKER_02: Where was it?
20:54
SPEAKER_02: Uh I wonder what album is it on.
20:58
SPEAKER_02: Oh, it's the wedding album.
21:00
SPEAKER_02: Okay, so it's this one.
21:04
SPEAKER_02: So we're looking at the US charts.
21:08
SPEAKER_02: I'm not gonna tell you who it is yet.
21:10
SPEAKER_02: So, number 17, uh, they charted in 1981 at number 10 with their debut album.
21:17
SPEAKER_02: And then they had an album in 82, two years later, and they went to number six, and then um one year later, they released an album that went to number eight.
21:27
SPEAKER_02: Then in 86, three years later, uh their album went to number twelve, and then two years later, number twenty-four, uh, two years later, number forty-six, and then they kind of went away.
21:43
SPEAKER_02: I guess it was I guess Yeah, because three years later, their this album went to number seven.
21:51
SPEAKER_02: Um But you didn't hear a lot about this band.
21:55
SPEAKER_02: They kind of in the late eighties they didn't.
22:00
SPEAKER_02: Have a lot of hits.
22:02
SPEAKER_02: Um, but when they released this album, it's Duran Duran.
22:09
SPEAKER_02: Durand Duran, yeah.
22:11
SPEAKER_02: So they had albums in the late 80s.
22:16
SPEAKER_01: But if I look at the discography, because I don't think well, they were like early mid eighties, right?
22:22
SPEAKER_01: And then they just kind of went I don't know nowhere.
22:27
SPEAKER_01: Right.
22:28
SPEAKER_02: Well, let's look at the album right before this one.
22:30
SPEAKER_02: It's called Liberty, and the track listing is Violence of Summer Loves Taking Over.
22:38
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
22:38
SPEAKER_02: I've never heard that single.
22:39
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
22:40
SPEAKER_02: Liberty Hothead Serius was what Serius was it was a a single.
22:46
SPEAKER_02: Again, never heard of those singles.
22:48
SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
22:49
SPEAKER_02: Let's look at the album before that.
22:51
SPEAKER_02: Big thing.
22:53
SPEAKER_02: The singles were I Don't Want Your Love.
22:55
SPEAKER_02: I remember that one.
22:56
SPEAKER_02: All She Wants Is.
22:57
SPEAKER_02: I remember that one, but they weren't big hits.
22:59
SPEAKER_02: No.
23:00
SPEAKER_02: For example, All She Wants Is went to number 22.
23:04
SPEAKER_02: And I Don't Want Your Love went to number four.
23:07
SPEAKER_02: But then they released this album, and it had this song, No Ordinary Ordinary World.
23:15
SPEAKER_02: And this album also had uh where is it?
23:21
SPEAKER_02: This song.
23:26
SPEAKER_02: Come Undone.
23:28
SPEAKER_02: Which was another great song.
23:29
SPEAKER_02: I don't remember this one.
23:30
SPEAKER_02: You don't remember this one?
23:30
SPEAKER_02: No.
23:30
SPEAKER_02: I bet you will.
23:42
SPEAKER_01: I'm waiting for a TLC to come out.
23:47
SPEAKER_02: It almost sounds like you remember that um that um early to mid-90s new uh new wave thing called Enigma.
23:56
SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:56
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, almost something like that.
24:02
SPEAKER_02: So I might agree that not that it wasn't a comeback album, but it was a return to form.
24:09
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
24:09
SPEAKER_01: You know, okay, yeah, that's that's a good way to put it, yeah.
24:12
SPEAKER_02: Maybe.
24:12
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
24:13
SPEAKER_02: Um now number 16.
24:18
SPEAKER_02: Oh.
24:18
SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
24:19
SPEAKER_01: You recognize it now.
24:21
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
24:21
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
24:21
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
24:21
SPEAKER_01: For some reason I didn't think it was Duran Duran.
24:23
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know.
24:24
SPEAKER_02: That's it so it's a different, completely different sound.
24:26
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
24:27
SPEAKER_02: So the next one, number 16, is uh Bob Dylan.
24:34
SPEAKER_02: From 1989, an album called O Mercy.
24:38
SPEAKER_02: Um and I don't really have I don't have this album.
24:42
SPEAKER_02: I mean I could look it up, but says, let me just read this.
24:45
SPEAKER_02: Dylan recorded his comeback with producer Daniel Lenoir, who was U2's producer, uh, near one of the New Orleans state uh stately above ground graveyards, Lafayette Cemetery, number one.
24:56
SPEAKER_02: Quote, the past doesn't pass away so quickly here, Dylan mused, and that appeared to have become a personal burden too.
25:03
SPEAKER_02: Oh mercy gave in to what was happening to his suddenly oaken voice, gave into the atmospheric process that Lenoir favored, and gave in to worry, too, seeming to rebuke everything he'd preached on hope-filled albums like Saved, not to mention his goofball one-offs as part of the Traveling Woolberries.
25:20
SPEAKER_02: Rather than deflate his aging legend, however, all of that somehow ended up completely reanimating Bob Dylan.
25:26
SPEAKER_02: A template was now set for his long final act.
25:30
SPEAKER_02: So what they're saying, I think, is in 1989, this album is the one where he started like he used to be a decent singer.
25:42
SPEAKER_02: He was never a great singer.
25:44
SPEAKER_02: Right, but I mean he But you could understand him.
25:46
SPEAKER_02: Right, and he could carry it too.
25:47
SPEAKER_01: And he could carry it too.
25:48
SPEAKER_01: And then he just went, I don't know.
25:50
SPEAKER_01: And he started thinking like, nah, and then it was like kind of like a Tom Waits kind of thing.
25:55
SPEAKER_01: Right.
25:55
SPEAKER_01: You know.
25:57
SPEAKER_02: Um, so the next one, number 15.
26:01
SPEAKER_02: I may agree that this is a comeback album only because of the circumstances.
26:07
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
26:08
SPEAKER_02: Um 2000, Iron Maidens, Brave New World.
26:13
SPEAKER_02: And here's why.
26:15
SPEAKER_02: Because the two albums before that had lead singer Blaze Bailey, and they were not well received.
26:22
SPEAKER_01: Right.
26:22
SPEAKER_01: I was gonna say that must have been the return of Dickinson.
26:25
SPEAKER_02: It was the return of Bruce Dickinson.
26:27
SPEAKER_02: Okay, yes.
26:27
SPEAKER_02: So I can agree that that's I'll I'll give him that one.
26:31
SPEAKER_02: Um I mean, they did have a couple songs, Wicker Man was on there, Ace is High.
26:34
SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
26:35
SPEAKER_02: Two minutes to Midnight.
26:36
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
26:36
SPEAKER_02: Ace is High was a good song.
26:38
SPEAKER_02: So, yeah, I'll give that to him as well.
26:41
SPEAKER_02: Um, this next one, I don't think I would call it a comeback.
26:48
SPEAKER_02: Um we should have like L O Cool J like on a button or something like that.
26:51
SPEAKER_02: Oh, we should, man.
26:52
SPEAKER_02: Don't call it a comeback.
26:52
SPEAKER_02: Don't call it a comeback.
26:54
SPEAKER_02: Um because I I don't know why they call these comebacks, because these bands don't go anywhere.
27:02
SPEAKER_02: Just because they um, you know, don't have the same.
27:08
SPEAKER_01: It's like if if like next year White Lion came back with an album.
27:12
SPEAKER_02: That would be a comeback.
27:13
SPEAKER_01: That would be a comeback.
27:14
SPEAKER_01: Right.
27:14
SPEAKER_01: You know, because they've been out of the you know, the zeitgeist for how long now?
27:18
SPEAKER_02: Right.
27:18
SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
27:19
SPEAKER_01: So, you know, that was that's a comeback.
27:21
SPEAKER_01: Right.
27:22
SPEAKER_01: I agree.
27:23
SPEAKER_01: Um Like if, you know, if John Lennon and George Harrison came back from the dead and reformed the Beatles, that's a comeback.
27:31
SPEAKER_02: Right.
27:32
SPEAKER_01: That's not gonna happen, but I'm just saying.
27:35
SPEAKER_02: I want to see if there was The Zombie Beatles.
27:41
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, see, I don't have I'm trying to find out if Oh, here we go.
27:48
SPEAKER_03: Okay, see, I don't ha is this the one with this song.
27:55
SPEAKER_02: I know.
27:56
SPEAKER_02: It's weird because I'm working uh I'm trying to work fast here um to get all this information.
28:05
SPEAKER_02: Let me go on here and see where this hit.
28:08
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
28:09
SPEAKER_02: I'm not gonna call this a comeback album because their discography, they had this album, let's look at the let's look at the charts in the US.
28:20
SPEAKER_02: Their debut the what's considered their debut album hit number two.
28:26
SPEAKER_02: And their next album hit number two.
28:28
SPEAKER_02: And their next album hit number ten.
28:31
SPEAKER_02: And their next album hit number four.
28:35
SPEAKER_02: Uh and I don't have anything from the what they're calling the comeback album, but I do have something from the album that hit number four, and that's this one.
28:57
SPEAKER_02: So it's Green Day.
28:58
SPEAKER_01: I was just gonna say it.
28:59
SPEAKER_01: It sounds like Green Day.
29:00
SPEAKER_01: It is Green Day, but it doesn't sound like Green Day.
29:05
SPEAKER_02: Oh no, it doesn't, yeah.
29:07
SPEAKER_02: So this is from an album called Warning, which came out in 2000, uh and it hit number four.
29:13
SPEAKER_02: But they're saying that the next album uh well, I don't have it.
29:19
SPEAKER_02: Let me do this.
29:23
SPEAKER_02: They're saying the next album was the comeback album.
29:27
SPEAKER_01: It's not the American Idiot.
29:28
SPEAKER_01: Yes, it is.
29:36
SPEAKER_01: Again, they didn't really go anywhere.
29:38
SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
29:40
SPEAKER_02: So this is four years later.
29:42
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
29:42
SPEAKER_02: And it went number one.
29:44
SPEAKER_02: Is it because it went from number four to number one it was a comeback?
29:47
SPEAKER_02: That's not a comeback.
29:47
SPEAKER_02: I don't agree.
29:48
SPEAKER_02: That's that's pretty much status quo.
29:50
SPEAKER_02: I agree, you know?
29:52
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
29:53
SPEAKER_02: Now, uh let's look this one up.
29:57
SPEAKER_02: I'm trying to get through these as quick as as quick as possible here.
30:01
SPEAKER_02: Um across the I think maybe it was because it was where it was well received or something.
30:08
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
30:08
SPEAKER_02: Maybe I don't know.
30:09
SPEAKER_02: Because it was a popular album of the American, I think it won a bunch of awards.
30:13
SPEAKER_01: Oh, it did.
30:14
SPEAKER_02: It was huge.
30:15
SPEAKER_01: Um something about September.
30:21

30:25
SPEAKER_01: That's the song.
30:25
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
30:26
SPEAKER_02: Um, okay, so the next band, oh, that was number 12, by the way.
30:29
SPEAKER_02: So the next band, number 13, um Wait, we went from 12 to 13.

SPEAKER_02: So Green Day was number 14.
30:40
SPEAKER_02: Now we're at number 13.
30:42
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
30:42
SPEAKER_02: And this is uh an album from 1983.
30:45
SPEAKER_02: Now let's look at their uh discography.
30:47
SPEAKER_02: So their debut album hit number 87.
30:51
SPEAKER_02: Which is not a good show.
30:53
SPEAKER_02: Uh that's worse than us.
30:54
SPEAKER_02: Right.
30:54
SPEAKER_02: And then that same year, they released another album that r that r reached number 100.
31:01
SPEAKER_01: Wow.
31:01
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
31:02
SPEAKER_02: That's pretty bad.
31:03
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
31:03
SPEAKER_02: And then the next year they released an album that went to number 32.
31:08
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
31:08
SPEAKER_02: And then the next year they released two albums and they both went to number 11.
31:13
SPEAKER_02: And then the next year they released one that went to number four.
31:17
SPEAKER_02: And then in 1979, they released one that went to number nine.
31:22
SPEAKER_02: 1980, they released an album that went to number 35.
31:28
SPEAKER_02: And then in 1981, they released an album that uh went to number 75.
31:37
SPEAKER_02: Okay, so I can I can almost agree with this.
31:41
SPEAKER_02: Um let me see if I can get some of their music here.
31:46
SPEAKER_02: Uh, because I do have some of it.
31:48
SPEAKER_02: There it is.
31:49
SPEAKER_02: Um and then the album after that in 1982 went to number 45.
31:57
SPEAKER_02: Now, this album, I don't know if you could call it a comeback because it only went to number 24.
32:09
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
32:10
SPEAKER_02: So how is this a comeback album?
32:13
SPEAKER_02: I I you want me to read it?
32:15
SPEAKER_02: Because I don't know the justification.
32:17
SPEAKER_02: Because two years before they had music from The Elder, which was the one that went to number 75, which was universally pained.
32:23
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, that was terrible.
32:24
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and then Creatures of the Night was number only number 45.
32:27
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was a bad album.
32:28
SPEAKER_02: So this one went to number uh 24, but then after that, Animalize went to 19.
32:32
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
32:33
SPEAKER_02: And Asylum went to 20, Crazy Nights went to 18, Revenge went to number six in 1992.
32:40
SPEAKER_02: I mean, how are you weighing this here?
32:43
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
32:44
SPEAKER_01: I don't know what the criteria is, man, but it's not good.
32:48
SPEAKER_02: Uh it says KISS spent the late 70s and early 80s alienating their fans so badly that even 1982's return to form Creatures of the Night flopped.
32:56
SPEAKER_02: A major rebranding was in order, and that's exactly what the band delivered with 1983's Lick It Up.
33:02
SPEAKER_02: Revealing the faces behind their onstage makeup for the first time, earned a Kiss a big wave of publicity.
33:08
SPEAKER_02: While slightly slicker and less powerful than Creatures, Lick It Up was more than worthy of that attention.
33:14
SPEAKER_02: New guitarist Vinny Vincent wouldn't last long, but he proved to be an excellent songwriting partner for Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley while helping the band update their sound for a new era.
33:23
SPEAKER_02: The infectious title track, which I think my daughter can probably play on guitar, um earned Kiss a strong foothold on MTV, kicking off a rebirth that soon led the group back to headlining arenas and platinum sales.
33:41
SPEAKER_01: That's thin.
33:42
SPEAKER_02: A little bit.
33:43
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
33:44
SPEAKER_02: Yep, a little bit.
33:47
SPEAKER_02: Alright, moving on to number 12 from 1989.
33:52
SPEAKER_02: Uh I don't want to play this one because I have a hard time with this artist.
33:56
SPEAKER_02: Um I don't know why either.
33:58
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
33:59
SPEAKER_02: Um because it, I mean, I think he is a legend.
34:03
SPEAKER_02: But um Neil Young.
34:08
SPEAKER_02: Wow.
34:08
SPEAKER_02: From 1989, the album is called Freedom.
34:12
SPEAKER_02: Uh let's see.
34:13
SPEAKER_02: There were a few reasons for the lull in Neil Young's career through the 80s.
34:17
SPEAKER_02: One was that Young was doing less writing and recording, instead, devoting much of his time to caring for son Ben, who was born with cerebral palsy in 1978.
34:24
SPEAKER_02: Now I regret what I said about Neil Young.
34:26
SPEAKER_02: But anyway.
34:27
SPEAKER_02: Young also began to butt heads with Geffen, where label execs were upset with the lack of commercial viability of his music.
34:33
SPEAKER_02: Unafraid to experiment, Young spent much of the decade making albums that seemed to jump from genre to genre.
34:38
SPEAKER_02: Geffen actually sued Young in 1983 for releasing music they felt was unrepresentative and uncharacteristic of the artist they'd signed.
34:46
SPEAKER_02: In 1989, Young returned to his former label Reprise and to a form of music that many fans found to be a relief.
34:52
SPEAKER_02: Freedom features the same folk-tinged rock and roll that made Young famous in the first place, with lyrics that express both outrage and determination to move forward.
35:03
SPEAKER_02: I don't even know what what songs are on that album.
35:06
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
35:07
SPEAKER_01: Not a not a huge Neil Young fan.
35:09
SPEAKER_02: No, nor am I.
35:10
SPEAKER_02: To be honest with you, um I can appreciate Neil Young.
35:13
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
35:14
SPEAKER_02: Uh and what he his contribution to music, but I and some of his early stuff like Needle in the Damage Done and and Um Southern Man and stuff like that, I can appreciate that.
35:25
SPEAKER_02: But I'm not uh I'm just trying to look and see.
35:28
SPEAKER_02: Uh where's freedom here?
35:30
SPEAKER_02: I want to find out what tracks are on there.
35:33
SPEAKER_02: Because oh, well.
35:36
SPEAKER_02: Rocket in the Free World Acoustic.
35:40
SPEAKER_02: Um Wrecking Ball No More Notes.
35:42
SPEAKER_02: I don't recognize and then then Rocket in the Free World Electric.
35:45
SPEAKER_02: So I guess that's where you find.
35:47
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I guess that's the one song that you uh you recognize on that one.
35:51
SPEAKER_02: Um and then number 11.
35:55
SPEAKER_02: This is another one.
35:56
SPEAKER_02: I I I just because it's a really big hit, I don't know that I would call it a comeback.
36:04
SPEAKER_02: Again, that's my pipes.
36:06
SPEAKER_02: Just We're all gonna die.
36:10
SPEAKER_02: Okay, we're ACDC ACDC's Razor's Edge.
36:15
SPEAKER_02: Which is not really a comeback, which had Thunderstruck and Money Talks, uh and I think uh um Are You Ready was on there.
36:24
SPEAKER_02: Um now if you look at AC DC's discography, somebody should turn the heat off because it's kind of annoying.
36:34
SPEAKER_01: Well, you can't really turn the heat off.
36:36
SPEAKER_01: It's winter now.
36:38
SPEAKER_02: Uh we have snow now.
36:40
SPEAKER_02: Right.
36:41
SPEAKER_02: So if you look at just their 80s output, back in black, 1980.
36:47
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
36:47
SPEAKER_02: Was number one uh in the well, actually it was only number four in the U.S.
36:54
SPEAKER_02: Interesting.
36:55
SPEAKER_02: Uh their second album in the 80s, 1981's for those about to rock, was number one.
37:01
SPEAKER_02: And then Flick of the Switch was number 15, Fly on the Wall was number 32, Blow Up Your Video was number 12, and then The Razor's Edge was number two.
37:11
SPEAKER_02: Not really a comeback.
37:12
SPEAKER_02: It's it's not really a comeback, I don't think.
37:15
SPEAKER_02: Um, sorry.
37:16
SPEAKER_01: Sorry, ultimate rock.com.
37:18
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
37:19
SPEAKER_01: We don't agree.
37:23
SPEAKER_02: Um number 10, David Bowie the next day from 2013.
37:28
SPEAKER_02: Uh his best showing it hit number four.
37:33
SPEAKER_02: No, I'm sorry.
37:34
SPEAKER_02: David Bowie reached a commercial peak with the 83's Let's Dance hitting number four, his best showing after station to station's number three pinnacle, and number one, his second after 1975's fame with the title track.
37:45
SPEAKER_02: Then he spent the next two decades releasing underperforming and underwhelming records.
37:49
SPEAKER_02: He broke a 10-year break in early 2013 with the surprise release of the next day.
37:54
SPEAKER_01: So they're they're talking about That I actually can see.
37:59
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
38:00
SPEAKER_02: They're talking so they're talking about they are, they're talking about chart position, I think.
38:05
SPEAKER_01: Um but I I don't know if I would call it But it's not like Bowie ever went away or people forgot about him.
38:13
SPEAKER_01: I mean, he was still there.
38:15
SPEAKER_02: Right.
38:15
SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
38:16
SPEAKER_01: You know.
38:16
SPEAKER_02: If you take a long break, like you mentioned White Lion.
38:19
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
38:20
SPEAKER_02: If you take a long break, no matter what reason it is, and then you put out an album and it does well, that's a comeback.
38:27
SPEAKER_01: That's a comeback, yeah.
38:27
SPEAKER_01: Right.
38:28
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
38:28
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I agree.
38:30
SPEAKER_01: Um, so let me I would actually call um hysteria, Deaf Leopard's hysteria, a comeback.
38:39
SPEAKER_02: Well, for other reasons.
38:41
SPEAKER_01: For other reasons other than charts.
38:43
SPEAKER_01: Right.
38:43
SPEAKER_01: You know.
38:44
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
38:45
SPEAKER_01: So because I would consider that a comeback.
38:47
SPEAKER_01: Pyromania was huge, though.
38:49
SPEAKER_01: It was huge.
38:49
SPEAKER_02: It was huge.
38:50
SPEAKER_02: And then, you know, um I actually think Pyromania s uh scored higher on the charts than hysteria did.
38:56
SPEAKER_02: I think.
38:57
SPEAKER_01: Maybe, I don't know, but I think more hits came out of Oh yes, for sure.
39:01
SPEAKER_02: Hysteria than uh Pyromania.
39:04
SPEAKER_02: Now you got me thinking here.
39:05
SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna and I don't know if that's on the list because I haven't really looked at the list.
39:09
SPEAKER_02: But uh I just want to see if I'm right.
39:12
SPEAKER_02: If that uh if Pyromania got higher on the charts than Hysteria did.
39:17
SPEAKER_02: Uh hysteria obviously sold more.
39:19
SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah, how many?
39:20
SPEAKER_02: Um but let's see here.
39:22
SPEAKER_01: I remember I remember the summer it came out.
39:26
SPEAKER_01: I bought it, I bought one.
39:29
SPEAKER_02: No, I'm completely wrong.
39:31
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
39:31
SPEAKER_02: Pyromania got to number two, hysteria got to number one.
39:33
SPEAKER_02: Well, yeah, well, okay.
39:34
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
39:36
SPEAKER_01: Oh, and only got to number two.
39:38
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it shocks.
39:39
SPEAKER_02: Darn it.
39:40
SPEAKER_02: We suck.
39:43
SPEAKER_02: Uh okay, so the next one.
39:47
SPEAKER_02: The next one is also odd.
39:50
SPEAKER_02: Um I don't know why.
39:54
SPEAKER_02: See, this no, so this this kind of uh shoots their process in the foot.
40:02
SPEAKER_02: Um because number nine uh on the greatest comeback albums is U2's All That You Can't Leave Behind, which was in 2000.
40:13
SPEAKER_02: That was a crappy album.
40:15
SPEAKER_02: Well, there was some good stuff on it.
40:17
SPEAKER_02: Um I didn't care for it.
40:18
SPEAKER_02: Beautiful Day was on that.
40:19
SPEAKER_02: That was the only song I liked on it.
40:21
SPEAKER_02: Um but listen to this though.
40:23
SPEAKER_02: If you look at their discography, um so uh obviously they came out with Boy and then October and then War and then the Unforgettable Fire.
40:32
SPEAKER_02: Um those, I mean, as their popularity, you know, boy Boy only hit number sixty-three on the US charts, October 104, war hit number twelve, the unforgettable fire hit number twelve, and then the Joshua Tree.
40:44
SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah, Joshua where they measure everything.
40:48
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
40:48
SPEAKER_02: So the Joshua Tree was number one.
40:50
SPEAKER_02: And then Rattle and Hum, number one.
40:53
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
40:53
SPEAKER_02: And then Octum Baby, which I didn't like very much.
40:56
SPEAKER_02: I didn't care very much.
40:56
SPEAKER_02: There was a few songs I liked, but that was number one.
40:59
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
41:00
SPEAKER_02: And then Zuropa, which I hated.
41:02
SPEAKER_02: Oh, that was terrible.
41:03
SPEAKER_02: Number one.
41:04
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I can't forget that one.
41:05
SPEAKER_02: And then the album Pop, which I also didn't care for very much.
41:09
SPEAKER_02: Nope.
41:09
SPEAKER_02: Number one.
41:11
SPEAKER_02: And then this album in 2000, All That You Can't Leave Behind, number three.
41:19
SPEAKER_01: So how is that a where's the comeback?
41:21
SPEAKER_02: It's three years later.
41:23
SPEAKER_02: And it's not even as good.
41:24
SPEAKER_02: It's not even as as successful.
41:27
SPEAKER_02: Well, I don't I don't get the criteria of this shit.
41:29
SPEAKER_02: Should we read it?
41:30
SPEAKER_02: Let's read it.
41:30
SPEAKER_02: You two experienced the first significant lull of their career in the mid to late nineties.
41:36
SPEAKER_02: Though f lull is a relative term, they still reach platinum sales with Zeropa and Pop, yet they'd clearly begun to lose some creative spark while struggling to find a place in the modern musical landscape.
41:46
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's because Bono was going off on his, you know, he was trying to save the world.
41:52
SPEAKER_02: Right.
41:52
SPEAKER_01: I I I attribute to that.
41:54
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
41:54
SPEAKER_01: Because he was he was distracted.
41:56
SPEAKER_01: He wasn't, you know.
41:57
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
41:58
SPEAKER_01: He he ceased to be a musical force.
42:02
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
42:03
SPEAKER_01: You know.
42:04
SPEAKER_01: I mean, I respect, you know, he, you know, he's trying to do good in the world, using his fame and position and everything.
42:12
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
42:13
SPEAKER_01: But first and foremost, you're a musician, dude.
42:16
SPEAKER_02: Right.
42:16
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
42:17
SPEAKER_02: You know, you go away for three years.
42:21
SPEAKER_02: Every band goes away for three years, two or three years to work on music.
42:25
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they just did.
42:25
SPEAKER_02: And then they came out with another album and it it did worse than the album they had before.
42:30
SPEAKER_02: How is that a comedy?
42:31
SPEAKER_02: I don't understand how that's a comeback.
42:33
SPEAKER_01: It doesn't make any sense.
42:34
SPEAKER_02: Alright, I want to cruise through these next ones.
42:36
SPEAKER_02: Uh number eight, Black Sabbath, Heaven and Hell, 1980.
42:40
SPEAKER_01: I can kind of see that as well.
42:42
SPEAKER_01: That was with D.
42:43
SPEAKER_01: I wouldn't.
42:43
SPEAKER_01: That was after after Ozzy.
42:46
SPEAKER_02: Right.
42:46
SPEAKER_01: So I can see that one.
42:48
SPEAKER_02: Um John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
42:52
SPEAKER_02: Nope.
42:53
SPEAKER_02: Double Fantasy.
42:53
SPEAKER_02: Nope.
42:54
SPEAKER_02: 1980.
42:55
SPEAKER_02: No.
42:55
SPEAKER_02: No.
42:56
SPEAKER_02: It was the first studio LP after a five-year hiatus to help raise his son.
43:02
SPEAKER_02: If you look at it that way, because I mean it did have starting uh just like starting over, beautiful darling boy.
43:08
SPEAKER_01: I'm not I'm not acknowledging anything that Yoko's Yoko Ono.
43:14
SPEAKER_01: It's John and some annoying woman.
43:17
SPEAKER_01: Right.
43:17
SPEAKER_01: That's it.
43:18
SPEAKER_02: Number six.
43:19
SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna go with this one.
43:20
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
43:21
SPEAKER_02: From 1999.
43:22
SPEAKER_02: Santana, Supernatural.
43:23
SPEAKER_01: Yes.
43:24
SPEAKER_01: I know.
43:24
SPEAKER_01: The one with Rob Thomas.
43:25
SPEAKER_01: Totally yes.
43:26
SPEAKER_02: That was that was a huge.
43:28
SPEAKER_02: That brought Santana back on the map.
43:30
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
43:30
SPEAKER_02: Uh number five from 1994, Johnny Cash's American Recordings.
43:34
SPEAKER_02: Oh, good lord, yes.
43:36
SPEAKER_01: Yes.
43:37
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, the things that Rick that uh uh Rick Rubin did for Johnny Cash with that whole series.
43:41
SPEAKER_02: Oh, I know.
43:42
SPEAKER_02: The American Recordings.
43:43
SPEAKER_02: Crazy man.
43:44
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
43:44
SPEAKER_02: He he put Johnny Cash back where he belonged.
43:46
SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, uh I don't know if he necessarily put him back, but he made him more mainstream?
43:52
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
43:55
SPEAKER_01: He was always the man in black.
43:56
SPEAKER_01: He was a big country star, but then he you know he kind of expanded.
44:00
SPEAKER_01: Exposed him to everybody, and then people like you know, our age were like, Whoa, Johnny Cash?
44:05
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you know, that kind of thing.
44:06
SPEAKER_02: So yeah, I get it.
44:07
SPEAKER_02: I get it.
44:08
SPEAKER_02: Uh, number four, I also agree with uh Aerosmith's Permanent Vacation.
44:13
SPEAKER_02: Yes, I agree with that one.
44:15
SPEAKER_01: Because that was post-rehab and all that, so yeah.
44:18
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
44:18
SPEAKER_02: I I think a lot of people would agree with that.
44:21
SPEAKER_02: John Fogarty from 1985, Centerfold.
44:24
SPEAKER_02: Uh Creeden's Clearwater revisited long before John Fogarty's ex-bandmates established their own offshoot band of the same name.
44:31
SPEAKER_02: Um I think is this the one where he he got sued for plagiarizing himself?
44:38
SPEAKER_02: It is.
44:39
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
44:39
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
44:40
SPEAKER_02: Um he sounded too much like himself.
44:42
SPEAKER_02: So so they sued him.
44:44
SPEAKER_01: That's like suing yourself for writing an autobiography.
44:47
SPEAKER_02: Right.
44:47
SPEAKER_02: Right.
44:49
SPEAKER_02: So uh and if you look if you think about John Fogarty, because he purposely didn't record for a long period of time.
44:57
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
44:58
SPEAKER_02: Uh and then because of his record label deal.
45:01
SPEAKER_02: Right.
45:02
SPEAKER_02: And they were they were bilking money from him and stuff like that.
45:04
SPEAKER_02: So he purposely just kind of shut off the faucet.
45:08
SPEAKER_02: And I guess I could see where this would be a comeback.
45:11
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I see.
45:12
SPEAKER_02: I could see this.
45:12
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
45:13
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
45:13
SPEAKER_02: Same thing for the next one.
45:15
SPEAKER_02: Number two, George Harrison's Cloud Nine.
45:18
SPEAKER_01: I got my mindset on you.
45:22
SPEAKER_01: Well, I got mama.
45:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
45:23
SPEAKER_02: And when we was fab, that was uh another one.
45:26
SPEAKER_02: You've heard that song, right?
45:27
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
45:27
SPEAKER_02: Yep.
45:27
SPEAKER_02: So yeah, I would call that a comeback.
45:29
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I would too.
45:30
SPEAKER_02: And I would think number one is also a comeback.
45:34
SPEAKER_02: I'm glad you know they kind of redeemed themselves for the top, the top of the list here.
45:39
SPEAKER_02: Uh Tina Turner's Private Dancer from 1984.
45:43

1:02:30
SPEAKER_02: I think the sheer genius of this band is can is understated.
1:02:35
SPEAKER_01: I agree with I I I didn't appreciate them at the time.

SPEAKER_02: Um doo.
1:02:47
SPEAKER_02: Andrew Andrew Ferriss, who was a guitar player and saxophone player and keyboard player in the band, um had a hand in in pretty much all of their songs.
1:02:59
SPEAKER_02: I mean, he either wrote all of their songs or co-wrote all of their songs.
1:03:03
SPEAKER_02: Um we have never done X NXS.

SPEAKER_02: I'm I'm happy then.
1:03:09
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:03:13
SPEAKER_02: It's just such a the way it was put together.
1:03:18
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:03:18
SPEAKER_02: There's so many layers and so many instruments and so much orchestration that you don't notice because you're just grooving to it.
1:03:29
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:03:29
SPEAKER_02: You know, but if you put a pair of headphones on, you hear guitars like in the left side and a different guitar on the right side, and it all just works.
1:03:39
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:03:39
SPEAKER_01: It's uh it's it's like it's pop music, but it's very ingenious.
1:03:46
SPEAKER_01: Right.
1:03:47
SPEAKER_01: You know, it's not, it's not, it's not, it's not, I wouldn't even call it like it's not textbook, it's not, you know, just run of the mill.
1:03:56
SPEAKER_01: Right.
1:03:57
SPEAKER_01: Pop.
1:03:58
SPEAKER_01: It's very well put together, very well thought out, very well, you know, engineered.
1:04:03
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
1:04:04
SPEAKER_01: But it is at its core pop music.
1:04:06
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, exactly.
1:04:07
SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
1:04:08
SPEAKER_02: There's a uh Professor of Rock, which is a thing I follow on YouTube.
1:04:11
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I like that guy.
1:04:12
SPEAKER_02: I love Professor of Rock.
1:04:13
SPEAKER_02: Adam Reader.
1:04:14
SPEAKER_02: Adam Reeder is his name.
1:04:16
SPEAKER_02: Um he he had an interview with Andrew Ferris from NXS, and they talked about uh this song.
1:04:26
SPEAKER_01: I love this song.
1:04:27
SPEAKER_01: It's maybe one of my favorite NXT songs.
1:04:30
SPEAKER_02: And do you know that this was so I'm probably gonna paraphrase um so if you want to go see the interview, go to go to Professor of Rock on YouTube and find the interview with Andrew Ferris of NXS because uh Michael Hutchins, the late Michael Hutchins, was living in Hong Kong.
1:04:51
SPEAKER_02: And so Andrew Ferris was traveling to Hong Kong to um work with him and write songs and stuff.
1:04:58
SPEAKER_02: And Andrew Ferris had one of those little uh recorders, and he had this idea.
1:05:03
SPEAKER_02: So in the cab, he starts putting together these parts on this on this machine, and I think it I I don't know if it's it's just him singing the parts or what, but he put it all together and showed up in Hong Kong with what almost what you hear on this song.
1:05:23
SPEAKER_02: Really?
1:05:23
SPEAKER_02: Yes, the drum, the drum machine and everything.
1:05:26
SPEAKER_02: And Michael Hutchins said, Oh yeah, I got I I can do this.
1:05:30
SPEAKER_02: He went in and wrote lyrics and sang them almost at the same time, and the song took like minutes to record.
1:05:41
SPEAKER_02: Nice.
1:05:42
SPEAKER_02: Um the the basic tracks, you know.
1:05:45
SPEAKER_02: I'm not everything else came later, obviously.
1:05:49
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but they have the basic piece of the song and Michael Hutchins' lead vocal.
1:05:54
SPEAKER_02: And then and then they went and added everything, but the song itself was done in minutes.
1:05:58
SPEAKER_02: Cool, yeah, yeah.
1:06:00
SPEAKER_02: And then this one, this the string part on this song was originally on piano.
1:06:06
SPEAKER_02: Really?
1:06:06
SPEAKER_02: And the band didn't like it.
1:06:08
SPEAKER_02: So the producer said, Oh, you should use a string patch, you know, on your keyboard.
1:06:12
SPEAKER_02: And it completely changed the song.
1:06:14
SPEAKER_01: Oh, I was saying, uh, now that I'm trying to I'm trying to hear that part in on a piano.
1:06:18
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:06:19
SPEAKER_01: And I agree, that would that would be a good one.
1:06:20
SPEAKER_02: They said it was it sounded like a 50s, you know, yeah, yeah.
1:06:25
SPEAKER_01: Um, this this song's amazing.
1:06:34
SPEAKER_04: I was standing you were there.
1:06:40
SPEAKER_02: And there's also songs on this album that you forgot about.
1:06:44
SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm sure.
1:06:45
SPEAKER_02: I guarantee.
1:06:46

SPEAKER_01: Four notes.
1:06:58
SPEAKER_02: Right.
1:07:01
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's genius.

1:09:39
SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
1:09:39
SPEAKER_01: Well no, I don't think they really had one because they I mean they started at the bottom.

SPEAKER_01: Right.
1:09:44
SPEAKER_01: And they just continually went up.
1:09:46
SPEAKER_02: Well, you you could argue when Michael Hutchins was died.

SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah, yeah.

1:10:19
SPEAKER_01: Oh, that would be a comeback.
1:10:21
SPEAKER_02: You could argue that would be that would be a comeback.
1:10:22
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:10:23
SPEAKER_02: But then, of course, they fired JD Fortune and uh yeah.
1:10:28
SPEAKER_02: They had one uh an album in 2010 called Original Sin that didn't even chart in in the U.S.
1:10:35
SPEAKER_01: So they kind of back to where they started from.
1:10:37
