- 1:39Speaker 8: And we are back once again live via digital recording
- 1:42Speaker 8: from the Higgins Memorial Coliseum. Listen to the crowd.
- 1:49Speaker 14: Calm down.
- 1:50Speaker 8: Which is here to DJ some songs for you.
- 1:52Speaker 4: They thought this was a We Love Magnum PI podcast.
- 1:56Speaker 4: That's a callback that nobody wanted.
- 2:00Speaker 12: Unless we air this show first, and then it's a
- 2:01Speaker 12: call forward that no one will understand.
- 2:04Speaker 8: That really didn't happen until recently in the world of technology.
- 2:08Speaker 4: Yep.
- 2:09Speaker 8: The magic of call forwarding. I guess the phone company
- 2:14Speaker 8: came up with that first.
- 2:15Speaker 12: I know, now that's a throwback term.
- 2:17Speaker 8: Now it's retro. There's going to be circles here.
- 2:21Speaker 15: All right.
- 2:21Speaker 8: So as you may have noticed when you push play,
- 2:25Speaker 8: this is a very specific themed episode. And it mostly
- 2:29Speaker 8: started when, well, I guess probably for all of you,
- 2:33Speaker 8: we noticed the passing of this person. But for us
- 2:37Speaker 8: in particular, like as well, the night of, I'm already
- 2:40Speaker 8: making a list of like, and.
- 2:41Speaker 7: I have that.
- 2:42Speaker 8: Like, I'm just looking at my like stack OCDs and
- 2:46Speaker 8: all the soundtracks and stuff.
- 2:47Speaker 4: And I'm like, huh?
- 2:49Speaker 8: As people are scrolling by on Facebook with their, like,
- 2:52Speaker 8: tons and tons of, oh, my God, I can't believe
- 2:54Speaker 8: he died. Oh, my God, this is a cool picture
- 2:55Speaker 8: of him. Like, I'm just like, that one soundtrack.
- 2:59Speaker 4: Was really cool.
- 3:00Speaker 8: Wait, no, I have that one, too. Wait, no, I
- 3:02Speaker 8: have that one. Like, I just start thinking of all
- 3:04Speaker 8: the specific soundtrack stuff that I had that had a
- 3:09Speaker 8: very interesting or kind of monumental, for a few of them,
- 3:13Speaker 8: Bowie songs on it. So I was like, all right,
- 3:16Speaker 8: that would be a cool thing. So I'm already like
- 3:18Speaker 8: making a list of like, that'd be a cool one
- 3:20Speaker 8: to throw in the mix. Oh yeah, here's one I
- 3:22Speaker 8: haven't heard that much of. Let's work that in. And
- 3:24Speaker 8: Michael messaged me and is like, so if you're doing
- 3:27Speaker 8: anything with Bowie, I'm totally in on it. I'm like,
- 3:30Speaker 8: that's weird because I'm making a list right now. So
- 3:33Speaker 8: this is the steps that are putting this together. The
- 3:37Speaker 8: dominoes have fallen. We're here right now. So I'm assuming
- 3:43Speaker 8: you guys have heard of this Bowie character.
- 3:45Speaker 4: Yeah, this is the Linguini incident episode, right?
- 3:51Speaker 1: Sure.
- 3:52Speaker 4: No, okay.
- 3:54Speaker 8: So, if we don't have anything beforehand, I'll just kick
- 3:59Speaker 8: it off.
- 4:00Speaker 12: Kick it off.
- 4:01Speaker 8: Because I thought that the way going in, again, trying
- 4:04Speaker 8: to figure out what one to start with, I'm like,
- 4:07Speaker 8: let's start one that also starts a movie and is
- 4:10Speaker 8: a very... That was one of the first ones that
- 4:13Speaker 8: I thought of sitting on my shelf over there. I
- 4:15Speaker 8: was like, I'm deranged is kind of badass. So yeah,
- 4:18Speaker 8: Lost Highway, 1997, kicks off the movie, David Bowie.
- 5:07Speaker 7: Funny how secrets travel.
- 5:12Speaker 2: I start to believe.
- 5:15Speaker 7: If I wasn't me.
- 5:16Speaker 16: In the sky the man shaves his hands built high.
- 5:23Speaker 2: Cruel as me loved.
- 5:29Speaker 17: Cruel as me laid.
- 5:34Speaker 7: A plan to leap beyond, beyond, beyond.
- 5:39Speaker 16: Lonely dawn No return I'm deranged.
- 5:49Speaker 7: Deranged, deranged, deranged I'm T-Ray, da, da, da.
- 6:05Speaker 2: So cruise.
- 6:08Speaker 18: With me, cruise with me on. And the rail sets in.
- 6:20Speaker 18: It's the Angel Man. I'm T-Ray. Cruise with, cruise with,
- 6:29Speaker 18: cruise with me.
- 6:57Speaker 7: Dick Laurent is dead.
- 6:59Speaker 8: I love that one. I think it's so, with most
- 7:02Speaker 8: of his, he kind of gets the mood and comes
- 7:06Speaker 8: up with a song that's sort of perfect. And that's
- 7:08Speaker 8: saying something when it's a weird-ass David Lynch movie.
- 7:11Speaker 12: Do we want to talk more David Lynch, David Bowie crossover?
- 7:13Speaker 4: Yeah, let's do that.
- 7:15Speaker 8: Feel free to.
- 7:15Speaker 12: Well, I just like that he was in Twin Peaks
- 7:17Speaker 12: Fire Walk with me.
- 7:18Speaker 4: I think that is the best part of just about
- 7:20Speaker 4: any movie ever made, period. That five minute scene with
- 7:23Speaker 4: him in it.
- 7:24Speaker 13: Yes, but then I was, that was the most confusing
- 7:27Speaker 13: thing out of all the Twin Peaks mythos. It's because
- 7:32Speaker 13: he's there and then he disappears and it's like, when's.
- 7:34Speaker 4: David Bowie going to come back?
- 7:36Speaker 13: He tricked you.
- 7:37Speaker 8: It's also true.
- 7:38Speaker 18: Damn it.
- 7:39Speaker 8: Crazy David Bowie. Sneaking up like that. Maybe he can
- 7:42Speaker 8: really do that now.
- 7:43Speaker 19: That'd be awesome.
- 7:46Speaker 4: I really think like the David Lynch, David Bowie collaboration
- 7:51Speaker 4: was one of the more natural. It's weird saying this
- 7:54Speaker 4: because at the time, I mean, David Lynch has always
- 7:56Speaker 4: been a weird dude, but David Bowie gets it has
- 8:00Speaker 4: a reputation for always being a weird dude. But really,
- 8:02Speaker 4: if you listen to his music in the 70s. It's
- 8:06Speaker 4: not really that weird.
- 8:08Speaker 8: No, it's of the times.
- 8:10Speaker 4: Yeah, what you're really hearing is cocaine. You're not really hearing, like, music.
- 8:14Speaker 4: He never did drugs. But, like, that's the most perfect
- 8:20Speaker 4: movie person David Bowie could have ever collaborated with, especially
- 8:25Speaker 4: in that time, I think, because that music was so
- 8:29Speaker 4: David Lynchian, and the David Lynchian movies were so David Bowie-y.
- 8:33Speaker 4: Like in 1992 to 1998 or whatever. Yeah. It was perfect.
- 8:38Speaker 8: It was a good collaboration.
- 8:40Speaker 12: That makes sense.
- 8:41Speaker 8: Do we want to go with, again, this one, I'm
- 8:44Speaker 8: throwing a few out to you. I just made a
- 8:45Speaker 8: list of like all the awesome ones I could think
- 8:47Speaker 8: of and a few that I hadn't heard before. I
- 8:49Speaker 8: was trying to go with some of the lesser known ones, but.
- 8:52Speaker 8: I think you had one that you wanted, Lucy.
- 8:55Speaker 12: Well, I don't know if it was in a soundtrack. Again,
- 8:57Speaker 12: I forget the format of the show.
- 8:59Speaker 8: Have you been here before?
- 9:01Speaker 4: Four years?
- 9:03Speaker 12: Only once for the soundtrack show. And I showed up
- 9:05Speaker 12: to that one being utterly lost as well.
- 9:07Speaker 8: At least twice. I can think of two times.
- 9:10Speaker 12: So I wanted to hear kooks. And speaking of, you know,
- 9:13Speaker 12: you want to project weirdness onto David Bowie when sometimes
- 9:15Speaker 12: there's no weirdness to David Bowie.
- 9:18Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 9:19Speaker 12: I always, this makes me feel terribly about myself, but
- 9:23Speaker 12: I always thought that this song, I only realized within
- 9:26Speaker 12: the last few years that he wrote this for his son,
- 9:29Speaker 12: Duncan Jones, filmmaker, fantastic filmmaker, then Zoe Bowie. But I
- 9:37Speaker 12: always thought that this song was like, two old perverts
- 9:40Speaker 12: singing to like a young girl trying to bring her
- 9:43Speaker 12: into a weird threesome.
- 9:44Speaker 8: Well, I mean, that wouldn't be out of his spectrum either.
- 9:48Speaker 8: I know what I thought.
- 9:49Speaker 12: But I feel guilty that I projected that on him.
- 9:52Speaker 12: And like, because the lyrics very much lay out that
- 9:55Speaker 12: it's about a child.
- 9:57Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 9:57Speaker 12: But I thought it was like, you know, when he's
- 9:59Speaker 12: talking about buying a cruise ship. like i'm imagining like
- 10:01Speaker 12: an ilia kazan baby doll kind of scenario like i
- 10:04Speaker 12: went super fucking pervert on it and really it's a
- 10:08Speaker 12: very sweet song that a almost to be father wrote
- 10:12Speaker 12: his unborn child um and i'm a bad person well
- 10:16Speaker 12: we knew.
- 10:16Speaker 4: That well yeah.
- 10:24Speaker 6: If you stay, you won't be sorry.
- 10:28Speaker 16: Cause we believe.
- 10:30Speaker 7: In you.
- 10:32Speaker 20: Soon you'll grow So take a chance With a couple
- 10:37Speaker 20: of kooks Hung up on romancing Will you stay in

- 11:00Speaker 7: And have fun romancing.
- 11:08Speaker 20: We bought a lot of things to keep you warm
- 11:11Speaker 20: and dry, and a funny old crib.
- 11:14Speaker 4: On which the paint won't dry.
- 11:17Speaker 7: I bought you a pair.
- 11:18Speaker 21: Of shoes, a trumpet you can blow, and a book
- 11:22Speaker 21: of rules.
- 11:23Speaker 19: What to say to people when they pick on you,
- 11:27Speaker 19: cause if you stay with us, you're gonna be pretty
- 11:29Speaker 19: cookie too.

- 11:44Speaker 8: Take a chance with a.
- 11:46Speaker 7: Couple of kooks on a fun romancing.
- 11:59Speaker 3: And if you ever have.
- 12:00Speaker 23: To go to school, remember how they messed up.
- 12:04Speaker 7: This old fool.
- 12:06Speaker 20: Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cats, cause
- 12:09Speaker 20: I'm not much cop at punching other people's dads. And
- 12:14Speaker 20: if the homework brings you down, then we'll throw it
- 12:17Speaker 20: on the fire and take the car downs out.

- 12:50Speaker 7: you'll grow.
- 12:51Speaker 20: So take a chance with a couple of groups.
- 12:59Speaker 4: Before I knew what it was actually about, I thought
- 13:02Speaker 4: it was about The Great Gatsby for some reason. Because
- 13:06Speaker 4: I don't know if it was like when I heard
- 13:07Speaker 4: the song or something, but for some reason, I don't
- 13:10Speaker 4: give a shit about The Great Gatsby, but I remember
- 13:12Speaker 4: it because it was one of the books I forced
- 13:14Speaker 4: myself to read when I was in school. Because I
- 13:16Speaker 4: was like, no, goddammit, you're going to read this book
- 13:19Speaker 4: because I didn't read any books that I was supposed
- 13:20Speaker 4: to read in school. I like that. That one I read.
- 13:23Speaker 4: And so there's a part where he's talking about, you know,
- 13:25Speaker 4: we'll get in the car and we'll go downtown, blah, blah, blah.
- 13:27Speaker 4: And it reminded me of the part in The Great
- 13:29Speaker 4: Gatsby where they're like, they're all fucking drunk and they
- 13:31Speaker 4: get in the car and they go from the West
- 13:33Speaker 4: Egg to Manhattan or something and maybe they hit somebody.
- 13:35Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 13:36Speaker 8: Probably right now on YouTube, someone has taken that song
- 13:39Speaker 8: and put clips of The Great Gatsby on there so
- 13:42Speaker 8: this dream could come true.
- 13:45Speaker 12: So this is a real Rorschach test of a song.
- 13:47Speaker 8: I'm a pervert.
- 13:48Speaker 12: You're a.
- 13:49Speaker 4: No, I'm totally a pervert.
- 13:50Speaker 8: A pervert who loves the Great Gatsby.
- 13:51Speaker 4: That's not what I took from that song.
- 13:54Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 13:55Speaker 12: But it's actually an incredibly sweet song, especially the lyrics
- 13:58Speaker 12: where he's talking about how he's going to buy him
- 14:00Speaker 12: a book, the things to say when people are mean
- 14:03Speaker 12: to you, because if you're growing up with us, you're
- 14:05Speaker 12: going to be pretty kooky too. It's just the sweetest,
- 14:08Speaker 12: sweetest song.
- 14:09Speaker 4: Yeah, it really is. What movie was that in?
- 14:14Speaker 8: From 2011's Hannah, figure that out.
- 14:19Speaker 24: Hannah.
- 14:21Speaker 8: Which is an awesome movie, but mostly for her performance.
- 14:23Speaker 8: She's badass.
- 14:24Speaker 4: Who is Hannah?
- 14:25Speaker 7: Brooklyn.
- 14:27Speaker 4: What?
- 14:27Speaker 8: I don't know how to say her name. That was
- 14:29Speaker 8: my favorite joke lately. Spike Lee must be really pissed
- 14:33Speaker 8: off that they made a movie called Brooklyn with nothing
- 14:35Speaker 8: but a bunch of white people in it. Wait, I
- 14:37Speaker 8: heard that.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Who said that?
- 14:38Speaker 8: I'm trying to remember now. It was funny, though. I
- 14:40Speaker 8: was like, that's a good line. What is her name?
- 14:44Speaker 8: Swarshi Swarshi Saoirse Ronan it took me I set out
- 14:49Speaker 8: to specifically find out the right way to say it
- 14:51Speaker 8: it's Saoirse Ronan Saoirse Saoirse Ronan it took me a
- 14:54Speaker 8: long time to get it right that's a good name
- 14:56Speaker 8: I can't pronounce names for shit but that one I
- 14:58Speaker 8: worked on that one for fuck's sake okay because she
- 15:01Speaker 8: is a very.
- 15:01Speaker 12: Good actress she is she's fantastic.
- 15:04Speaker 4: The album that Kooks came from, which is the one
- 15:07Speaker 4: that everybody loves, Hunky Dory, I think that, I also
- 15:11Speaker 4: like it, but I think it's probably my least favorite song. Well,
- 15:14Speaker 4: it's one of my, like, three least favorite songs on
- 15:17Speaker 4: that album, because it's just kind of like, it feels
- 15:19Speaker 4: like a throwaway in an album that takes itself really seriously. Like,
- 15:24Speaker 4: that album takes itself so fucking seriously, and that song's
- 15:27Speaker 4: just kind of like the.
- 15:29Speaker 8: And we got one more track to throw.
- 15:30Speaker 4: Kooky song on the album that takes itself really seriously, so.
- 15:34Speaker 8: Crazy 70s artist what do you all right i was
- 15:39Speaker 8: trying to mix it up and go with some older
- 15:42Speaker 8: stuff some newer stuff and some stuff that maybe people
- 15:45Speaker 8: again i was trying to steer away from the huge
- 15:48Speaker 8: hits of which he has many we can work some
- 15:50Speaker 8: in if you'd like but uh the ones i was
- 15:52Speaker 8: trying to come up with were more stuff that was
- 15:54Speaker 8: either exclusive to soundtracks or was a weird thing that
- 15:58Speaker 8: he did specifically for that soundtrack So this was for
- 16:02Speaker 8: our 1997's The Ice Storm. This is I Can't Read.
- 16:40Speaker 16: I can't read and I can't write down.
- 16:44Speaker 7: I don't know a book from Countdown.
- 16:51Speaker 16: I don't know which shadow gets me As someone's face
- 17:23Speaker 16: Can I see the family smile?
- 17:28Speaker 7: Can I reach tomorrow?
- 17:44Speaker 16: Can I walk a missing mile?
- 17:49Speaker 7: Can I feel, can I please? I can't pretend anymore,
- 18:41Speaker 7: boy I just sit.
- 18:52Speaker 25: Back and ignore I just can't seem.
- 19:09Speaker 7: To get it right. Get it right. I can't reach it.
- 19:18Speaker 7: I can't reach it.
- 19:28Speaker 4: Is it the Tin Machine version of I Can't Read?
- 19:31Speaker 4: Or did he re-record that? Because that was on the
- 19:33Speaker 4: album Tin Machine from 1989. Yeah. Some fucking business rock.
- 19:37Speaker 4: They're all wearing suits.
- 19:39Speaker 8: Because it was one of those I was like, I
- 19:40Speaker 8: really liked Tin Machine at the time and I totally
- 19:43Speaker 8: got out of the loop and wasn't really remembering it
- 19:45Speaker 8: until again, looking at this and was like, oh, fuck
- 19:48Speaker 8: Tin Machine. I forgot midway into his career, he decided, hey,
- 19:52Speaker 8: I want a band. I know I'm already an established
- 19:55Speaker 8: solo artist. Fuck it, I want a band. So he
- 19:57Speaker 8: just got some guys, made a band.
- 19:59Speaker 4: What a shame that was.
- 19:59Speaker 8: Because he can do that. He's David Bowie.
- 20:02Speaker 4: What a shame. That's the only Tin Machine song I like.
- 20:05Speaker 4: That's why I was wondering if it's that version or
- 20:07Speaker 4: if he remade it, because... The song Cat People Putting
- 20:11Speaker 4: Out Fires was a song that nobody gave a flying
- 20:15Speaker 4: fuck about from the Let's Dance album. And it just
- 20:17Speaker 4: happened to come back as a really good version of
- 20:20Speaker 4: that song in that Quentin Tarantino movie that we talked
- 20:22Speaker 4: about earlier that I forgot the name of.
- 20:24Speaker 12: And by earlier, you mean weeks ago or weeks in
- 20:26Speaker 12: the future?
- 20:28Speaker 4: Weeks ago, weeks in the future. We talked... At some
- 20:31Speaker 4: point there is a conversation in the ether about a
- 20:34Speaker 4: Quentin Tarantino movie.
- 20:35Speaker 8: I mean, we could even return to that song.
- 20:37Speaker 4: The war movie.
- 20:38Speaker 8: At some point if we wanted to. But yeah, I
- 20:40Speaker 8: don't know. That one was just super dark and kind
- 20:43Speaker 8: of cool. What do you see when you're in the
- 20:45Speaker 8: dark and the demons come? Okay, so again, going through
- 20:49Speaker 8: trying to find stuff that I hadn't heard a ton of,
- 20:51Speaker 8: which again, I didn't listen to a lot of those
- 20:54Speaker 8: super beloved 70s albums. I knew all the hits from them.
- 20:57Speaker 8: But going back, I was like, all right, let's find
- 21:00Speaker 8: out about Soul Love. So this is from, again, I
- 21:04Speaker 8: love the choices where they show up. 2006's Lady in
- 21:08Speaker 8: the Water. This is Soul Love.
- 21:10Speaker 14: Oh, wow.
- 21:12Speaker 4: Why did that need to be a thing?
- 21:19Speaker 20: Stone love She kneels before the grave of rain Sun.
- 21:28Speaker 3: Who gave his life to save.
- 21:30Speaker 20: Us A slogan that hovers between the headstone and her eyes.
- 21:39Speaker 22: For they penetrate her grieving You are a boy and
- 21:48Speaker 22: girl that talk in new words That only they can.
- 21:54Speaker 7: Share in you.
- 21:57Speaker 20: A love so strong it tears their hearts to pieces.
- 22:04Speaker 20: Through the bleeding hours of mourning.
- 22:08Speaker 3: Love is careless, then it's choosing, streaming over across a nightmare.
- 22:15Speaker 7: Love descends on those defenseless, idiot.
- 22:18Speaker 14: Love who's.
- 22:21Speaker 7: A spark of fusion.
- 22:23Speaker 3: Inspirations have I not?
- 22:28Speaker 7: Just a touch of flaming love.
- 22:30Speaker 3: All I have is my love of love, and love
- 22:33Speaker 3: is not loving.
- 22:59Speaker 20: So love the priest that tithes the word untold of
- 23:06Speaker 20: love and how my God on high is all love.
- 23:14Speaker 20: The reaching of my loneliness evolves by the.
- 23:20Speaker 23: Blindness that surrounds him.
- 23:24Speaker 3: Love is careless, and it's choosing, sweeping over, awesome baby.
- 23:30Speaker 3: Love descends on those defenseless, idiot.
- 23:34Speaker 7: Love, which forms a fusion.
- 23:37Speaker 3: Inspirations have I none, it's the touch that made me come.
- 23:44Speaker 7: All I have is my love of love, and love
- 23:47Speaker 7: is not loving. Love is not loving.
- 24:36Speaker 13: I have not seen Lady in the Water.
- 24:38Speaker 4: That just seems like a strange combination to me.
- 24:41Speaker 8: Because people love Lady in the Water.
- 24:43Speaker 12: I actually do love Lady in the Water. I mean,
- 24:45Speaker 12: I don't love it for the reasons that M. Night
- 24:47Speaker 12: Shyamalan would want me to love it. But I love
- 24:49Speaker 12: it for all the other reasons.
- 24:51Speaker 8: He loves him.
- 24:52Speaker 22: Yes.
- 24:53Speaker 12: Although I heard a theory recently that I kind of
- 24:55Speaker 12: like having seen The Visit. Is that what it's called?
- 24:59Speaker 12: What's the most recent one?
- 25:01Speaker 8: The Visit or The Visitor. Creepy Grandparents?
- 25:03Speaker 26: Yes.
- 25:04Speaker 12: It is so clearly like a comedy that my friend
- 25:08Speaker 12: has a theory that he's been making comedies all along,
- 25:11Speaker 12: but they're so dry that nobody super knows because the
- 25:15Speaker 12: lady in the water is wildly hilarious. Just the audacity
- 25:19Speaker 12: of him casting himself as like a genius writer who
- 25:23Speaker 12: critics don't understand the brilliance and importance of, and then
- 25:28Speaker 12: to like, the critic character winds up being killed horrifically
- 25:32Speaker 12: in a very, very elongated sequence.
- 25:36Speaker 8: Take that, critic.
- 25:37Speaker 12: It's truly amazing.
- 25:40Speaker 4: I thought the movie with the farm and the aliens
- 25:43Speaker 4: was really funny, and I don't think it was supposed
- 25:45Speaker 4: to be funny.
- 25:46Speaker 12: I think it maybe was. I don't know. I like
- 25:49Speaker 12: that one.
- 25:50Speaker 4: This is a good theory.
- 25:51Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 25:52Speaker 12: Anyway, just throwing that out there.
- 25:55Speaker 4: All right.
- 25:55Speaker 8: Moving on. This one I did.
- 25:59Speaker 8: My personal take on it is I have the soundtrack.
- 26:02Speaker 8: I'm not too proud to pretend like I don't have
- 26:04Speaker 8: the Pretty Woman soundtrack. And it was one of those,
- 26:08Speaker 8: this is one of the more well-known songs, but it
- 26:11Speaker 8: was one I was like, I like that he will
- 26:13Speaker 8: take his own stuff and rework it for whatever purpose
- 26:16Speaker 8: he feels or they pay him to do. So this
- 26:19Speaker 8: is from the Pretty Woman soundtrack, Fame 90, that he
- 26:23Speaker 8: redid in, guess which year?
- 26:25Speaker 12: 1890.
- 26:27Speaker 8: He is possibly a vampire, as we will find out.
- 26:30Speaker 12: That's what Tony Scott told me.
- 27:09Speaker 21: Fade Fade Fade Fade What you like is in the low.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Bang!
- 27:51Speaker 7: Bang!
- 27:53Speaker 21: What you get is no tomorrow.
- 27:56Speaker 2: Bang!
- 27:57Speaker 7: Bang!
- 27:59Speaker 17: What you need you have to borrow.
- 28:01Speaker 2: Bang!
- 28:02Speaker 7: Bang!
- 28:04Speaker 14: Bang!
- 28:04Speaker 7: Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
- 28:08Speaker 2: Bang!
- 29:06Speaker 7: We'll be right back. So what's the difference between Fame
- 29:49Speaker 7: 90 and Fame 90? Fame 90 has.
- 30:05Speaker 4: Drum machine in it is it is it basically the
- 30:07Speaker 4: same no john.
- 30:08Speaker 13: Lennon just pretty no john lennon john lennon's not in
- 30:11Speaker 13: favor with all of his other stuff.
- 30:13Speaker 8: It is funny that like he it's not even massively
- 30:16Speaker 8: he will vary it to whatever degree he wants but
- 30:19Speaker 8: like they're not worlds different sometimes it's there's a few
- 30:23Speaker 8: that get but again i think a lot of those
- 30:25Speaker 8: weird remixed ones he hands off to somebody else but
- 30:27Speaker 8: the ones that he just kind of like slaps a
- 30:30Speaker 8: name on is like is mostly my song i changed
- 30:32Speaker 8: a few things i don't know if that's.
- 30:34Speaker 12: How it works i mean that's such a cynical way
- 30:36Speaker 12: of looking at what david bowie does because i feel
- 30:37Speaker 12: like he was always somebody where like he just would
- 30:39Speaker 12: get an idea and be like i need to go
- 30:41Speaker 12: with that and like maybe there's this thing about the
- 30:43Speaker 12: song that had bugged him for the last 10 years
- 30:44Speaker 12: i can say like john lennon.
- 30:46Speaker 4: Wouldn't that be cool.
- 30:49Speaker 12: I mean, he kept Iggy Pop alive during the 80s
- 30:54Speaker 12: by like recovering stuff that they'd worked on together and
- 30:58Speaker 12: putting it out there so that Iggy Pop could have
- 31:01Speaker 12: a songwriting credit and get money to, you know, finance
- 31:05Speaker 12: his songwriting. Heroin addiction slash recovery slash addiction slash recovery.
- 31:11Speaker 8: On that note, I was going to do nothing but
- 31:15Speaker 8: Bowie sung songs, but do you want to throw in
- 31:18Speaker 8: the one that he wrote that is on one of
- 31:20Speaker 8: his movie soundtracks that he doesn't do a vocal on,
- 31:23Speaker 8: but Iggy does?
- 31:25Speaker 4: Which one is it?
- 31:26Speaker 8: That would be From the Hunger. Fun time.
- 31:29Speaker 12: Oh, no fun time.
- 31:31Speaker 8: You say yes or no?
- 31:34Speaker 12: I say yes. I say an enthusiastic yes.
- 31:36Speaker 8: It is written by Bowie and Iggy Pop. Whether or
- 31:38Speaker 8: not he actually did or just wanted to keep them alive,
- 31:40Speaker 8: I don't know. No, they really did.
- 31:42Speaker 12: I mean, they wrote so much together when they were
- 31:44Speaker 12: in Berlin. I mean, like an amazing amount.
- 31:46Speaker 26: Yeah.
- 31:47Speaker 8: But yeah, I thought, you know, he's written so many songs,
- 31:50Speaker 8: but I was like, I still kind of wanted to
- 31:51Speaker 8: keep it mostly to Bowie. But I was like, if
- 31:53Speaker 8: there's one person that's kind of his other half in
- 31:56Speaker 8: that era, Iggy Pop is it. And one of the
- 31:58Speaker 8: few that can kind of do his lyrics justice in
- 32:01Speaker 8: his own weird Iggy way.
- 32:05Speaker 26: Hey, I feel lucky tonight.
- 32:19Speaker 7: I'm gonna get stoned and run around.
- 32:33Speaker 26: Last night I was down in the lab Talking to Dracula.
- 32:40Speaker 27: And his crew I don't need no heavy trips I.
- 32:52Speaker 26: Just do what I want to.
- 32:54Speaker 28: Do We want some, we.
- 33:28Speaker 7: Want some.
- 34:46Speaker 4: You're not going to play Dancing in the Street?
- 34:48Speaker 8: Do you really want to play Dancing in the Street?
- 34:50Speaker 4: You're not going to play anything from Lou Reed's Transformer?
- 34:53Speaker 8: Do you really want to play.
- 34:55Speaker 4: No, God, no.
- 34:56Speaker 3: I don't want to.
- 34:56Speaker 4: Ever hear another Lou Reed song for the rest of
- 34:58Speaker 4: my life.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 34:59Speaker 12: Here's the thing about Dancing in the Street, though. What
- 35:01Speaker 12: I love about Dancing in the Street is that.
- 35:03Speaker 4: Everything?
- 35:04Speaker 12: David Bowie.
- 35:05Speaker 8: It's amazing?
- 35:06Speaker 12: Wait, are we serious right now?
- 35:08Speaker 4: I'm totally serious.
- 35:09Speaker 7: Really?
- 35:10Speaker 8: Oh, never mind. I think it's very.
- 35:13Speaker 13: Very quintessential 80s.
- 35:15Speaker 4: Yes. You know, and I think that's one of the
- 35:17Speaker 4: charms about it.
- 35:19Speaker 13: And I do think it's ridiculous because you've got these
- 35:22Speaker 13: two rock legends together and this is the song of
- 35:25Speaker 13: all things. They couldn't take 20 minutes to write a
- 35:28Speaker 13: song together, so they just covered this classic.
- 35:31Speaker 4: At that point, the world had 10 years before already
- 35:33Speaker 4: seen multiple pictures of the two of them like sucking
- 35:36Speaker 4: face at the fucking Studio 54.
- 35:37Speaker 24: Also true.
- 35:39Speaker 4: So that was their response to that. They were like,
- 35:41Speaker 4: we're going to put on some green Reeboks and some
- 35:43Speaker 4: fucking neon shoulder pads and we're going to do this
- 35:47Speaker 4: It's terrible.
- 35:48Speaker 8: Prancy, I think, comes in.
- 35:50Speaker 12: I think it's the most wildly embarrassing video of all time.
- 35:53Speaker 4: Oh, it is.
- 35:54Speaker 12: So incredibly uncool. But what amazes me about it is
- 35:56Speaker 12: that he had accumulated so much goodwill in his lifetime
- 36:00Speaker 12: and so much respect for being awesome that I personally
- 36:05Speaker 12: forget about it. Or I blame it on Jagger.
- 36:08Speaker 7: I never.
- 36:09Speaker 12: I never forced him to take personal accountability.
- 36:12Speaker 13: I don't think either of those guys were embarrassed by
- 36:14Speaker 13: that at all.
- 36:15Speaker 4: I don't think so.
- 36:15Speaker 8: For some reason. I really don't. I don't think they
- 36:17Speaker 8: were up to the end.
- 36:19Speaker 4: That video would have come out way differently if they
- 36:21Speaker 4: were embarrassed.
- 36:22Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 36:22Speaker 8: I don't think they cared. And that is mine. I
- 36:25Speaker 8: just feel like everybody's heard that one so much at
- 36:28Speaker 8: this point. I don't even have a problem with it.
- 36:29Speaker 8: I'm like, the video is ridiculous, but the song is
- 36:32Speaker 8: just the two of them doing their thing at that era.
- 36:36Speaker 8: That's kind of where both of them were at that point.
- 36:38Speaker 8: So I'm like, It's fine. But who hasn't heard that
- 36:42Speaker 8: a million times?
- 36:43Speaker 12: Yeah, don't play it, please.
- 36:47Speaker 8: For his memory. So we can go back again, if
- 36:50Speaker 8: you'd like. How about Here Comes the Night? Again, the
- 36:55Speaker 8: places they turn up. From 2009's Suck, which I'm pretty
- 36:59Speaker 8: sure someone on the original recipe show talked a lot
- 37:03Speaker 8: of smack about. Yeah, this is Here Comes the Night.
- 37:13Speaker 7: Here it comes Here I come tonight Yeah, here I
- 37:25Speaker 7: come tonight Oh, yeah I can.
- 37:33Speaker 23: See right out my window Walking.
- 37:35Speaker 7: Down the street My girl with.
- 37:37Speaker 23: Another guy.
- 37:42Speaker 7: His arms around her like.
- 37:44Speaker 3: It used to be with me Oh, it makes me
- 37:46Speaker 3: want to die Yeah, here it comes Here comes the.
- 37:49Speaker 7: Night Yeah, here comes the night Yeah, here comes the.
- 38:02Speaker 6: Night There they go, funny how they look so good together.
- 38:15Speaker 23: Wonder what is wrong with me. Why can't I accept
- 38:23Speaker 23: the fact she's chosen him and simply let them be?
- 39:10Speaker 7: All she is with.
- 39:11Speaker 29: Him is turning down the lights, but now he's holding
- 39:14Speaker 29: her the way I used to do.
- 39:21Speaker 6: I can see her closing her eyes and telling them
- 39:23Speaker 6: lies exactly like she.
- 39:25Speaker 7: Told me to.
- 39:27Speaker 14: Oh, here it comes.
- 39:34Speaker 7: Here comes the night.
- 40:12Speaker 4: Oh, this fucking song. This is a cover from pinups.
- 40:16Speaker 4: That's why I don't recognize it. Because pinups fucking sucks.
- 40:21Speaker 13: I want to argue that with you based on the
- 40:23Speaker 13: cover artwork of pinups, but.
- 40:25Speaker 8: That's all I've got.
- 40:28Speaker 4: Pin-ups was the I don't want to be Ziggy Stardust anymore,
- 40:31Speaker 4: now I want to be this weird Motown guy album.
- 40:35Speaker 4: It was the transition, the album that bridged the gap
- 40:38Speaker 4: between those two periods. Essentially, Not Counting Diamond Dogs, which
- 40:41Speaker 4: was truly the last Ziggy Stardust album for not Ziggy
- 40:46Speaker 4: Stardust album of that era.
- 40:49Speaker 8: In a man of many eras, I mean.
- 40:51Speaker 4: It was a throwaway album that I'm pretty sure it
- 40:55Speaker 4: was recorded in like a weekend. They were like, these
- 40:58Speaker 4: are all songs that my whole touring band knows. These
- 41:02Speaker 4: are all songs that we can agree are songs that
- 41:04Speaker 4: we could play together and come off fairly well. Let's just,
- 41:08Speaker 4: maybe Capitol Records or whoever it was at the time
- 41:10Speaker 4: was like, hey, we need, you haven't put out three
- 41:13Speaker 4: albums in 1974 like you should have. You owe us
- 41:15Speaker 4: another album. You need a third album in this year
- 41:19Speaker 4: before we can give you this bonus to forward to
- 41:22Speaker 4: this next thing or whatever. So they were like, fine,
- 41:24Speaker 4: and they dropped that album, and there are some good
- 41:27Speaker 4: songs on it, but those versions of those songs are
- 41:30Speaker 4: not the good ones. I mean, if it didn't sound
- 41:35Speaker 4: like it was just such a throwaway, like nobody in
- 41:38Speaker 4: the band and David Bowie himself, none of them gave
- 41:41Speaker 4: two shits about recording that. If it didn't just come
- 41:44Speaker 4: across so clearly like that, and I know people who
- 41:47Speaker 4: like David Bowie that will probably disagree with that. Send
- 41:50Speaker 4: all your hate letters to Brian. Don't send them to me.
- 41:54Speaker 8: Forward them all to him.
- 41:55Speaker 4: He will forward them to me, and I will delete them.
- 41:59Speaker 4: It's just not a real album is my thing about it.
- 42:06Speaker 8: And even more fitting that it ends up on Suck.
- 42:09Speaker 4: They do. In the album pinups, he records my favorite
- 42:14Speaker 4: all-time Pink Floyd song. And ruins it. And I'm like,
- 42:18Speaker 4: David Bowie, you're my favorite artist covering a song by
- 42:21Speaker 4: a band that I don't care that much about, but
- 42:23Speaker 4: it's my favorite song. And you fucked it up. Why
- 42:26Speaker 4: did you do that? See Emily play?
- 42:28Speaker 14: Okay.
- 42:29Speaker 4: That may have actually not been on the actual album.
- 42:32Speaker 4: It's on the album.
- 42:33Speaker 8: I've run into it, yeah, in this too. And I
- 42:35Speaker 8: was trying to remember if I'd heard his version of it.
- 42:39Speaker 4: But yeah, his version of it is not very good.
- 42:42Speaker 4: It's not good and it's very disappointing. Well, what's weird
- 42:44Speaker 4: too is it's one of his.
- 42:45Speaker 13: his slickest sounding albums.
- 42:47Speaker 4: Like it's really overproduced. And yes, it really is.
- 42:50Speaker 13: I mean, yeah, I agree with you. I think they,
- 42:53Speaker 13: they checked into the studio, they unloaded the equipment, they.
- 42:56Speaker 4: Record it and then they left. Yeah.
- 42:57Speaker 13: And nobody bothered to like actually listen to it.
- 43:01Speaker 3: I think.
- 43:03Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 43:03Speaker 4: He does like a one, one. I don't know if
- 43:06Speaker 4: this made it, I don't think this is on the album,
- 43:08Speaker 4: but he did a port of Amsterdam, the, the Jacques
- 43:11Speaker 4: Brel song in those sessions.
- 43:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 43:13Speaker 4: And it made it to one of the versions of
- 43:16Speaker 4: the album that had all the bonus tracks at the
- 43:18Speaker 4: end of it or whatever. And that song's awesome, but
- 43:20Speaker 4: it's not on the album. And I'm like, why didn't
- 43:22Speaker 4: you put the only good song you recorded in that
- 43:24Speaker 4: session on this album? And it's probably because, well, it's
- 43:26Speaker 4: not Bruce Springsteen. It's not Pink Floyd. It's not T-Rex
- 43:31Speaker 4: and the other fucking bands we have fast covered. Nobody
- 43:36Speaker 4: in America wants to listen to a Jacques Brel song. So, bleh,
- 43:39Speaker 4: you know. We're American, who? Yeah, exactly. I told you
- 43:44Speaker 4: I had shit to say about David Bowie. I'm locked
- 43:46Speaker 4: and loaded. That's why I brought you here. Let's talk
- 43:49Speaker 4: about Young Americans.
- 43:50Speaker 12: That's why I brought you to your apartment.
- 43:53Speaker 8: You weren't even here. I made you come back here.
- 43:57Speaker 4: I was at Qdoba.
- 43:59Speaker 8: That's not my fault.
- 44:01Speaker 4: I know. I know. That's my fault.
- 44:05Speaker 8: So, again, going back, he had those periods where, like,
- 44:09Speaker 8: film became everything. It's funny that he's known so much
- 44:11Speaker 8: for an 80s movie, but, like, he did, like, a
- 44:13Speaker 8: big run in the 70s, and then, like, he had
- 44:15Speaker 8: this monster movie span in, like, the 90s that was just, like,
- 44:19Speaker 8: he was on a ton of soundtracks, he was in
- 44:21Speaker 8: a ton of movies, even when they weren't huge parts.
- 44:25Speaker 8: This one crosses over into both.
- 44:28Speaker 8: There is a version of A Small Plot of Land
- 44:30Speaker 8: that is a specific Basquiat version put out in 1996
- 44:35Speaker 8: for the soundtrack. And if you're familiar with the movie,
- 44:37Speaker 8: he's also in it and plays pretty well Andy Warhol.
- 44:42Speaker 8: I've seen several actors try to pull off Warhol. He's
- 44:45Speaker 8: equally as weird as the rest of them.
- 44:49Speaker 7: Horses. Horses.
- 44:57Speaker 18: Spill upon that poor soul He.
- 45:05Speaker 7: Never knew so what hit him And it hit him
- 45:14Speaker 7: so Poor dumb soul He pushed out the pig man
- 45:26Speaker 7: The boat is left, the pool is dead. Poor dunce
- 45:38Speaker 7: is less than within us. The brain is torn, but
- 45:46Speaker 7: the will to live is dead. And bread is dead.
- 45:53Speaker 3: Travel so far these days.
- 46:01Speaker 7: The talk of your life.
- 46:04Speaker 3: Standing so near To.
- 46:09Speaker 7: Win us tonight Or.
- 46:15Speaker 30: Don't Swings through the tunnels and.
- 46:25Speaker 4: Claws his way.
- 46:29Speaker 7: Is small life so manic?
- 46:32Speaker 3: Are these really the days?
- 46:38Speaker 7: Pardon us. Pardon us. Dance Poor soul Poor soul Poor soul.
- 47:20Speaker 9: The dude that did Andy Warhol and the Doors, was
- 47:30Speaker 9: that Crispin Glover?
- 47:32Speaker 4: He's one of them.
- 47:32Speaker 8: Of course that would have been Crispin Glover.
- 47:35Speaker 4: He nailed it, but that's why.
- 47:37Speaker 8: It's gotta be. We want to stop for some Crispin stories.
- 47:43Speaker 4: Yeah, let's hear some Crispin stories. You're going to play
- 47:46Speaker 4: something from one of his albums? No. He has albums?
- 47:50Speaker 8: How am I not aware of this?
- 47:53Speaker 12: Clowny clown clown.
- 47:55Speaker 4: Crispin Glover makes amazing music like he makes amazing everything else.
- 47:59Speaker 8: He's very special, that Crispin.
- 48:01Speaker 4: Yes.
- 48:13Speaker 17: You keep saying you got something for me. There's something
- 48:20Speaker 17: you call love, but confess.
- 48:25Speaker 4: You've been a mess and where you.
- 48:27Speaker 3: Should have been a mess.
- 48:32Speaker 8: Hi, this is Crispin Glover, and you're listening to Movie Meltdown.
- 48:36Speaker 21: These boots make you watch it.
- 48:40Speaker 7: And that's just what I don't do.
- 48:43Speaker 31: One of these days these boots are going.
- 48:49Speaker 3: To walk all over you.
- 48:54Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 48:57Speaker 4: Like those Berlin albums, they... B-sides for Heroes and Low
- 49:01Speaker 4: were all instrumental, and they all had weird titles like,
- 49:05Speaker 4: That Thing Over There in the Yard, This is a
- 49:08Speaker 4: Mossy Garden. I mean, they were all just like.
- 49:11Speaker 8: Those are great lyrics. What are you talking about?
- 49:13Speaker 4: No, those weren't lyrics. Those were titles of instrumental songs. No,
- 49:15Speaker 4: I wanted him to say those things. I mean, he
- 49:17Speaker 4: probably did.
- 49:20Speaker 14: Gee, ignorant art, Bruno.
- 49:22Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, like, stupid, like, ridiculous, crummy art.
- 49:27Speaker 1: Oh, that sounds good.
- 49:29Speaker 2: That's new.
- 49:30Speaker 4: Ten bucks.
- 49:32Speaker 7: Oh, gee, didn't work very much on these.
- 49:35Speaker 2: I can give you, like, five.
- 49:36Speaker 7: Come on, Bruno, you're rich.
- 49:40Speaker 29: You should talk to Bruno you don't even work on
- 49:42Speaker 29: your stuff no it's.
- 49:44Speaker 3: Not how much you work on something that matters it's
- 49:48Speaker 3: how much you get for them I can get ten.
- 49:51Speaker 8: He does take like his own thing and he's like
- 49:54Speaker 8: okay what can I do with it like I mean
- 49:57Speaker 8: from an artistic standpoint it is interesting like watching somebody
- 50:02Speaker 8: cause you will see like a painter will take some
- 50:04Speaker 8: previous work of art and then just paint over it
- 50:06Speaker 8: and mess with things and redo it and It's its
- 50:09Speaker 8: own new thing, and he's as much artist as the
- 50:12Speaker 8: rest of them. So I don't know. I kind of
- 50:14Speaker 8: like that he bothers to do that stuff. Again, how
- 50:17Speaker 8: invested in it, I don't know. Sometimes I'm not sure
- 50:20Speaker 8: if the original one, as we've said, maybe he was
- 50:23Speaker 8: just doing whatever the hell he wants to do because
- 50:25Speaker 8: he's David Bowie.
- 50:26Speaker 4: You're not going to play anything from the Buddha of Suburbia,
- 50:28Speaker 4: are you? Okay, good. You don't even have to answer.
- 50:33Speaker 2: All right.
- 50:34Speaker 8: How about Lady Grinning Soul?
- 50:37Speaker 4: Lady Grinning Soul has bananas piano. I love it. Every
- 50:41Speaker 4: note you can play on a piano is played in
- 50:43Speaker 4: that song over and over and over again.
- 50:46Speaker 8: But do you remember it from 2010's The Runaways?
- 50:48Speaker 23: Wow.
- 50:48Speaker 8: David Bowie. The Runaways.
- 51:06Speaker 19: She'll Skin sweet with musky oil, a lady.
- 51:45Speaker 3: From another grinning soul.
- 51:50Speaker 7: Hello, she wears silver and America. She will drive a beetle.
- 52:03Speaker 3: Car and beat you down at Koganasta. And when the
- 52:13Speaker 3: glooms are strewn Don't be afraid of the gloom Touch.
- 52:21Speaker 7: The fullness of my breast Feel the love above the
- 52:25Speaker 7: rest She'll come, she'll go She'll lay belief on you
- 52:49Speaker 7: But she won't stake her life on you And when
- 53:17Speaker 7: the clothes are screwed, don't be afraid of the food.
- 53:23Speaker 7: Touch the.
- 53:25Speaker 3: Food and the grass and feel the love of heaven.
- 54:03Speaker 7: Thank you. He's more machine now than man.
- 54:32Speaker 8: So you love Tin Machine is what you're saying.
- 54:34Speaker 4: Yeah. Tin Machine. Tin Machine 2, best David Bowie album ever.
- 54:39Speaker 8: One of my, again, like of all the weird crossovers,
- 54:42Speaker 8: I was like, wait, is he on a Hellraiser soundtrack?
- 54:48Speaker 8: Hellraiser 3, Hell on Earth.
- 54:50Speaker 2: Wow.
- 54:51Speaker 8: Starring our good friend Doug Bradley. Features Baby Universal by
- 54:57Speaker 8: Tin Machine.
- 54:58Speaker 7: Oh, right.
- 54:59Speaker 4: Finally, the Tin Machine Hellraiser crossover we all wanted.
- 55:03Speaker 8: We've all been waiting for.
- 55:26Speaker 7: I bet he has no sense of destination. Now he's
- 55:33Speaker 7: running for the lover's feet.
- 55:38Speaker 3: When the child goes bad, it's no cause for celebration.
- 55:44Speaker 7: Like Doody Doody, don't talk back to me. Hello humans,
- 56:03Speaker 7: can you feel me thinking? I assume you're seeing everything
- 56:10Speaker 7: I'm thinking.
- 56:14Speaker 3: Hello humans, nothing starts tomorrow.
- 56:18Speaker 7: I'm the baby now. Doesn't matter I've seen everything anyway.
- 57:07Speaker 10: Hello, humans, nothing starts tomorrow. universe baby universe.
- 58:18Speaker 7: Hi, this is Doug Bradley, pinhead from the Hellraiser Films.
- 58:21Speaker 32: You're listening to Movie Meltdown, and you better keep listening
- 58:24Speaker 32: to Movie Meltdown or I will tear your soul apart.
- 58:34Speaker 8: Did you want to work in... Again, you mentioned it, Philip.
- 58:37Speaker 8: I didn't know which direction we want to go. I
- 58:40Speaker 8: figure we have to at least, in some way, pay
- 58:43Speaker 8: tribute to Labyrinth. Where do we go with that one?
- 58:48Speaker 4: Chilly Down?
- 58:49Speaker 8: Do you want Chilly Down? I, you know, I love
- 58:52Speaker 8: the song. Again, puppets are singing it, but, you know.
- 58:54Speaker 13: Which, you know, is always thumbs up in my book.
- 58:59Speaker 4: But I think it's a great song.
- 59:00Speaker 13: I mean, I think it's got that nice, you know,
- 59:01Speaker 13: late 60s London feel to it. And, you know, even
- 59:05Speaker 13: though he doesn't actually sing it in the song.
- 59:07Speaker 4: It's definitely one of his favorites.
- 59:10Speaker 13: His, you can tell it's one of his songs.
- 59:12Speaker 8: Because it's weird. Yeah, it's a little, you know. It's
- 59:14Speaker 8: an odd, it's an odd song. It's more weird when
- 59:17Speaker 8: you pair it with what's going on on screen.
- 59:18Speaker 4: Right.
- 59:19Speaker 8: It's very strange.
- 59:20Speaker 4: It straight up does not fit with every other piece
- 59:23Speaker 4: of music on that soundtrack. Not at all.
- 59:25Speaker 2: Not at all.
- 59:26Speaker 4: Just completely doesn't.
- 59:29Speaker 8: And yet, there it is.
- 59:32Speaker 4: Yep. The 80s were a weird time, man.
- 1:00:02Speaker 3: When the sun goes down And the bands are back
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: to town The brothers come round I get out.
- 1:00:10Speaker 7: Of my dirty bed.
- 1:00:12Speaker 22: I shake my pretty little head Tap my pretty little.
- 1:00:17Speaker 8: Feet And dance in the.
- 1:00:20Speaker 7: Sunlight Dancing like a yo-yo.
- 1:00:27Speaker 21: I ain't got no problem, ain't got no suitcase, ain't
- 1:00:33Speaker 21: got no clothes.
- 1:00:34Speaker 7: To worry about, ain't got no.
- 1:00:36Speaker 3: Real estate or jewelry above my head. I just go
- 1:00:41Speaker 3: in my.
- 1:00:41Speaker 7: Head, the cheeriest bunch in the land. They know too.
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: Much, so show them chili-chili.
- 1:00:58Speaker 7: They burn, they turn, they glow-glow. Chili-chili. Chili-chili. Chili-chili. Good
- 1:01:11Speaker 7: times back. Good, yeah.
- 1:01:13Speaker 3: And you think it's wild, jitter, jitter, jitter.
- 1:01:28Speaker 7: Wild and crazy, really lazy.
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: Ah, rollin', funk destroyin' Ball playin', hips swayin' Trouble makin',
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: booty shakin' Trippin', passin', jumpin.

- 1:01:40Speaker 3: Rockin', rollin', and a-readin' With a natural sense of feel
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: Can you think I grew with feelin'? So when things
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: get too tough And your chin is draggin' on the
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: ground And even down looks.
- 1:01:54Speaker 7: Up Bad luck We can show you a good time.
- 1:02:00Speaker 7: Show you a good time. And we don't charge nothing.
- 1:02:05Speaker 4: Just such a nasty stuff.
- 1:02:06Speaker 7: We good in the middle, yeah.
- 1:02:08Speaker 4: Get that down, I'm.
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: Talking fire, guys.
- 1:02:10Speaker 7: Chill it down with the fire, guys. Think small.
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: Think small with the fire, guys. We can have it
- 1:02:16Speaker 3: with the fire, guys. Hey, listen up.
- 1:02:19Speaker 7: When you think it's warm, chill it down, chill it
- 1:02:23Speaker 7: down with the fire, guys. Good times, bad food When
- 1:02:34Speaker 7: you think that's wild Chill it down, chill it down
- 1:02:37Speaker 7: with the fire Think small with the.
- 1:02:42Speaker 8: Fire Hadn't he backed off the drugs by then? I
- 1:03:13Speaker 8: don't really know.
- 1:03:14Speaker 2: I don't know either.
- 1:03:14Speaker 8: What was he had?
- 1:03:15Speaker 4: Or did he ever really?
- 1:03:16Speaker 7: No, no, no.
- 1:03:17Speaker 8: They were kicked.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:03:18Speaker 8: That's what I thought. I thought by then most of
- 1:03:20Speaker 8: the really bad 70s guys had turned it around or
- 1:03:23Speaker 8: died one or the other.
- 1:03:23Speaker 12: Yeah, that's why dancing in the street doesn't make sense historically.
- 1:03:27Speaker 12: There should be a lot of cocaine that made that
- 1:03:29Speaker 12: video and yet there's not.
- 1:03:31Speaker 8: Are you sure? Even on the Jagger side.
- 1:03:35Speaker 4: See, that was recorded in a pink cloud period where
- 1:03:39Speaker 4: I can't speak for Mick Jagger, but I'm pretty sure
- 1:03:41Speaker 4: David Bowie was like, fucking life is great. I don't
- 1:03:44Speaker 4: care who sees me dance anymore. I don't care anymore.
- 1:03:46Speaker 4: I'm just going to dance.
- 1:03:49Speaker 13: Jagger is the more spastic of the two in that
- 1:03:52Speaker 13: video and normally.
- 1:03:53Speaker 4: In life.
- 1:03:55Speaker 32: So, I don't know.
- 1:03:55Speaker 4: It could go either way.
- 1:03:56Speaker 2: I think.
- 1:03:57Speaker 8: I mean, I assumed there were drugs involved. That's what
- 1:03:59Speaker 8: I was blaming Freejack on.
- 1:04:00Speaker 4: I just figured... Well, somebody.
- 1:04:02Speaker 13: I figured the dancing in the street video, I thought
- 1:04:05Speaker 13: that was part of the budget, was, you know.
- 1:04:07Speaker 8: Cocaine. Yeah, six pounds of cocaine each. Isn't that how
- 1:04:10Speaker 8: Hollywood works in general? Like, you always budget in the
- 1:04:13Speaker 8: cocaine budget.
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: I mean... Oh, Lord.
- 1:04:17Speaker 8: All right. So, now it's time for Vinyl Fetish.
- 1:04:22Speaker 11: Oh!
- 1:04:25Speaker 8: It's time for Vinyl Fetish. This one, actually, I bought recently.
- 1:04:37Speaker 8: It was surprisingly, for me, it was last year at
- 1:04:40Speaker 8: Vinyl Fest. And I, again, don't normally buy tons of records,
- 1:04:44Speaker 8: but I specifically got to this one. I already had
- 1:04:46Speaker 8: this soundtrack in the CD format, like most of mine,
- 1:04:50Speaker 8: because I'm so into the lusters of the cd sound
- 1:04:55Speaker 8: anyway uh i got i got there and they had
- 1:04:59Speaker 8: this giant 12 inch version of uh cool world oh
- 1:05:03Speaker 8: wow and this was that was not what i was
- 1:05:05Speaker 8: expecting this is a a 12 inch remix version of
- 1:05:09Speaker 8: like several versions of real cool world specifically just the
- 1:05:14Speaker 8: david bowie song And I'm like, okay, I need that.
- 1:05:17Speaker 8: Is it a picture disc?
- 1:05:19Speaker 21: No.
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: Oh, man.
- 1:05:20Speaker 4: That's a shame.
- 1:05:21Speaker 8: I can't afford those pricey pictures. This was just all
- 1:05:24Speaker 8: I could get was this version. So I specifically bought
- 1:05:28Speaker 8: it for one of these episodes for another vinyl entry.
- 1:05:33Speaker 8: And at the time, it was not in a remembrance
- 1:05:36Speaker 8: of David Bowie. It was just because it was a
- 1:05:38Speaker 8: badass song. So once we started doing it, I was like, well,
- 1:05:42Speaker 8: if I'm going to work it in, here's the time. Yeah.
- 1:05:45Speaker 8: This is our special final entry into the David Bowie
- 1:05:49Speaker 8: rundown here. This one is the 12-inch club mix of
- 1:05:55Speaker 8: Real Cool World.
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 1:06:59Speaker 16: So far this love is delightful.
- 1:07:02Speaker 11: The face of seduction was you But I listen.
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: For each and.
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: Every footstep In this real cruel world.
- 1:07:24Speaker 18: Questionings ain't like a fantastic hero's.
- 1:07:32Speaker 11: I've lost little children in fabled lands.
- 1:07:36Speaker 33: So I listen for each and every friendship.
- 1:07:45Speaker 7: In this real cool world.
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: Do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
- 1:07:54Speaker 15: Now there is you.
- 1:07:56Speaker 7: Do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: In my real cool world. Is you Am I real cool?
- 1:08:47Speaker 7: Story I'd like.
- 1:08:51Speaker 11: But somehow believing in nothing.
- 1:08:54Speaker 16: You whisper sweet nothing but grief.
- 1:09:00Speaker 7: I listen, because I'm in.
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: Darkness.
- 1:09:20Speaker 15: Now there is you In my real cool world Now
- 1:09:37Speaker 15: there is you In my real cool world You.
- 1:09:47Speaker 4: Came from nowhere.
- 1:09:49Speaker 3: You came from.
- 1:10:31Speaker 15: Now there is you in my real cool world. Now
- 1:10:47Speaker 15: there is you.
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: In my real cool world.
- 1:11:16Speaker 8: See, that's another one that, like, leads off the movie. And, like,
- 1:11:19Speaker 8: once again, you're like, well, this has got to be awesome, right?
- 1:11:22Speaker 8: It just started with David Bowie. So, like, you might
- 1:11:25Speaker 8: not feel that way when you get to the end
- 1:11:26Speaker 8: of Cool World, but whatever. It's still an awesome song.
- 1:11:29Speaker 12: Has anybody ever gotten to.
- 1:11:30Speaker 7: The end of Cool World?
- 1:11:31Speaker 4: Oh, I got to the end a couple of times.
- 1:11:34Speaker 8: Not recently.
- 1:11:35Speaker 13: I watched it the one time and was like, you
- 1:11:37Speaker 13: know what, this is probably good enough.
- 1:11:38Speaker 4: I have a Cool World press packet somewhere that's got, like,
- 1:11:42Speaker 4: you know, movie stills, the glossy fucking 8x10s, and, like,
- 1:11:47Speaker 4: a sheet that says, you know, production sheet shit and
- 1:11:50Speaker 4: all that stuff.
- 1:11:50Speaker 8: I might steal that when you're not looking.
- 1:11:52Speaker 4: I might give it to you because it's not worth anything.
- 1:11:54Speaker 4: I tried to sell it on eBay and they weren't
- 1:11:56Speaker 4: even going for like $ 5. Oh, wow.
- 1:11:58Speaker 8: I am the one that has the giant Hollywood clock
- 1:12:00Speaker 8: that now the clock is broken and it just hangs
- 1:12:03Speaker 8: weird and it just looks like a plastic sign that
- 1:12:05Speaker 8: says Hollywood.
- 1:12:06Speaker 4: You know, I had the Cool World. I don't know why.
- 1:12:09Speaker 4: I don't have any idea. I don't know. I have
- 1:12:12Speaker 4: no answers for you. But I had the Cool World
- 1:12:14Speaker 4: movie poster hanging on the inside of my door.
- 1:12:16Speaker 23: Nice.
- 1:12:18Speaker 4: Before the movie came out. And then I saw the
- 1:12:20Speaker 4: movie finally, like this poster had been on my door
- 1:12:23Speaker 4: for a long time. And I saw the movie finally
- 1:12:25Speaker 4: and I was like, this is not very good. It's
- 1:12:29Speaker 4: a headache. That movie's a headache.
- 1:12:32Speaker 8: The art is aggressive. Which is saying a lot about that.
- 1:12:36Speaker 4: Right.
- 1:12:37Speaker 8: But you probably, because at that time you were like,
- 1:12:40Speaker 8: I don't know who that guy is, but he is
- 1:12:43Speaker 8: a handsome dude.
- 1:12:43Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:12:44Speaker 8: I wish I was that animated chick hanging off of him.
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:12:47Speaker 12: I always knew who Gabriel Byrne was.
- 1:12:49Speaker 8: He is not featured on the post.
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: I mean, the guy from that.
- 1:12:51Speaker 4: Who's the pretty boy on the post? The guy where
- 1:12:53Speaker 4: he plays that priest in the movie where the girl
- 1:12:55Speaker 4: gets the wounds of Christ?
- 1:12:58Speaker 8: That Gabriel Byrne? That was my takeaway from that movie, though,
- 1:13:02Speaker 8: is I watched it and went, yeah, that guy's gonna
- 1:13:04Speaker 8: be a movie star. Like, not Gabriel Byrne. I knew
- 1:13:06Speaker 8: who he was.
- 1:13:07Speaker 12: I'd already seen him in an episode of Growing Pains.
- 1:13:09Speaker 8: Well, and he was on... I mean, he'd been in
- 1:13:11Speaker 8: a ton of stuff if you go back then. He'd
- 1:13:14Speaker 8: been working. But to me, that was one of the
- 1:13:16Speaker 8: first times he had a good amount of screen time
- 1:13:18Speaker 8: It wasn't just the five minutes in Thelma and Louise.
- 1:13:20Speaker 8: And I was just like, yeah, he's got screen presence.
- 1:13:23Speaker 8: There's no fighting it. That dude's going to be huge.
- 1:13:26Speaker 8: And a year and a half later, he was in
- 1:13:30Speaker 8: every movie, superstar. People had t-shirts with his pretty, pretty
- 1:13:33Speaker 8: hair on it.
- 1:13:34Speaker 12: I like that we're avoiding naming said person.
- 1:13:37Speaker 4: Pretty, pretty hair. Who else?
- 1:13:38Speaker 8: Have you seen Legends of the Fall?
- 1:13:41Speaker 12: I always thought he looked like a lady.
- 1:13:42Speaker 8: I know.
- 1:13:43Speaker 4: The gorgeous, lustry hair.
- 1:13:45Speaker 8: Have you not seen it?
- 1:13:47Speaker 4: It is gorgeous. He was the wrong person to cast.
- 1:13:50Speaker 4: As someone who read the book Seven Years in Tibet
- 1:13:52Speaker 4: and has this tattoo from that book.
- 1:13:54Speaker 7: Oh, wow.
- 1:13:55Speaker 8: You're slightly committed.
- 1:13:57Speaker 4: No, I'm not.
- 1:13:58Speaker 8: You need to be committed.
- 1:13:59Speaker 4: I read the book and it was real dry and
- 1:14:00Speaker 4: I finished it because, again, this was one of those
- 1:14:02Speaker 4: great Gatsby situations where I was like, I'm 400 pages
- 1:14:05Speaker 4: into this. I read it because somebody got it for
- 1:14:08Speaker 4: me for Christmas and I felt obligated to finish it.
- 1:14:11Speaker 4: So I finished it, but my tattoo was embossed on
- 1:14:14Speaker 4: the cover, and I thought, that's a cool building. It's
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: the Dalai Lama Summer Palace. There's no spiritual attachment to it,
- 1:14:20Speaker 4: but I've had to tell this story so many times. Like,
- 1:14:22Speaker 4: what does your tattoo mean? I'm like, it means I
- 1:14:24Speaker 4: read a book, and the book looked cool.
- 1:14:26Speaker 8: It's my summer home. I'd go there. For vacations.
- 1:14:31Speaker 4: The person whose name I forgot that we've never even
- 1:14:34Speaker 4: said anyway was the main role in Seven Years in Tibet.
- 1:14:37Speaker 4: And as one of the only people that probably read
- 1:14:39Speaker 4: the book and saw the movie, I was like, this
- 1:14:42Speaker 4: dude is not the right dude for this movie at all.
- 1:14:46Speaker 8: But specifically at that time, he was dude of the moment.
- 1:14:49Speaker 15: I know.
- 1:14:49Speaker 8: He was getting lined up, lead role and everything coming out.
- 1:14:54Speaker 4: I know why it was done, but he was just
- 1:14:56Speaker 4: not the right.
- 1:14:57Speaker 8: The weird ways of Hollywood.
- 1:14:59Speaker 4: The Quentin Tarantino guy that we all probably love that
- 1:15:05Speaker 4: was in the movie with the David Bowie.
- 1:15:09Speaker 23: Song.
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: The blonde guy.
- 1:15:10Speaker 8: We're looping around on those things.
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: Christoph Waltz.
- 1:15:14Speaker 7: Okay.
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: If they did Seven Years in Tibet, he's the only
- 1:15:17Speaker 4: guy they should think of for that role.
- 1:15:19Speaker 8: He's pretty good in everything.
- 1:15:20Speaker 4: Because the description of the guy who wrote the book
- 1:15:23Speaker 4: is the main character and the way he describes himself
- 1:15:26Speaker 4: and the way he looks, you know, in the book
- 1:15:29Speaker 4: sounds exactly like what that dude looks like. So he's
- 1:15:32Speaker 4: absolutely the person that should play that role.
- 1:15:34Speaker 8: I think we're talking reboot.
- 1:15:35Speaker 4: I think we, I, they should do it. We need
- 1:15:38Speaker 4: to make this happen. The story is actually really good.
- 1:15:41Speaker 4: It was just, it's long and the book is dry
- 1:15:44Speaker 4: and the movie's not good, but no David Bowie songs
- 1:15:49Speaker 4: in seven years in Tibet, but David Bowie did a
- 1:15:51Speaker 4: song called seven years in Tibet on his album earthling.
- 1:15:53Speaker 4: That's not, Has nothing to do with the movie or
- 1:15:56Speaker 4: the book. Fun fact.
- 1:15:59Speaker 8: It was fun.
- 1:16:02Speaker 7: Also cool world.
- 1:16:05Speaker 13: I walked into the theater to watch Cool World convinced
- 1:16:08Speaker 13: I was going to see cartoon boobies.
- 1:16:10Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:16:11Speaker 12: Nope.
- 1:16:11Speaker 4: And was so disappointed.
- 1:16:12Speaker 8: You came in late in the career of Baskin.
- 1:16:14Speaker 4: If you go back, you can see stuff. I've seen
- 1:16:17Speaker 4: Fritz the Cat.
- 1:16:18Speaker 8: Which, again, is not what it's... Again, they kind of
- 1:16:21Speaker 8: sell you on these things.
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:16:23Speaker 8: Because that's not the movie you expect either. I went
- 1:16:25Speaker 8: in expecting it to be a lot of that. And
- 1:16:28Speaker 8: then it gets super serious by the end of it. Like, oh, okay,
- 1:16:32Speaker 8: I didn't really see this coming.
- 1:16:33Speaker 14: Right.
- 1:16:34Speaker 8: Okay, I'm on board with you, Fritz. Let's do this.
- 1:16:36Speaker 3: Yay.
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: Cool World fails on absolutely every level, though.
- 1:16:41Speaker 8: Except the soundtrack. The entire soundtrack is awesome.
- 1:16:46Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:16:48Speaker 8: And it's weird stuff that had not surfaced into mainstream yet,
- 1:16:51Speaker 8: so it's a ton of weird techno shit that was
- 1:16:55Speaker 8: only in a weird club at the time.
- 1:16:56Speaker 4: Is My Life with a Thrill Kill Cult on that?
- 1:16:58Speaker 4: It's twice.
- 1:16:58Speaker 8: I was about to say it.
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: Twice.
- 1:17:00Speaker 4: That was a guess. I've never even heard this out.
- 1:17:02Speaker 2: Twice.
- 1:17:03Speaker 4: Along with Moby twice.
- 1:17:05Speaker 24: Really?
- 1:17:06Speaker 8: No, I'd never heard of Moby. I didn't know his
- 1:17:07Speaker 8: career went back that far. Yeah, that's how far back
- 1:17:09Speaker 8: it went. He was an unknown guy named Moby in
- 1:17:13Speaker 8: some basement somewhere playing with his computer. And that's how,
- 1:17:16Speaker 8: I mean, that's, again, you've got to give up.
- 1:17:17Speaker 4: You're like, I've got all this hair. What could possibly
- 1:17:19Speaker 4: go wrong?
- 1:17:20Speaker 8: My hair's golden on every avenue.
- 1:17:23Speaker 2: Oh, shit.
- 1:17:25Speaker 8: So, yeah, I was like, you just kind of have
- 1:17:29Speaker 8: to give whoever put that together. I'm like, they were
- 1:17:32Speaker 8: kind of forward thinking because like the only name at
- 1:17:35Speaker 8: the time was David Bowie.
- 1:17:37Speaker 21: Really?
- 1:17:37Speaker 8: There's a couple of I think. I mean, there's a few,
- 1:17:39Speaker 8: but it's a bunch of up and coming bands at
- 1:17:42Speaker 8: the time. And like some of them turned out to
- 1:17:45Speaker 8: be people.
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: Moby.
- 1:17:48Speaker 8: But again, that style of music was not at all
- 1:17:51Speaker 8: what it is. Later it became to be. Now it's
- 1:17:54Speaker 8: fallen off and nobody cares again. But it was way
- 1:17:56Speaker 8: ahead of the curve on that style of music. So
- 1:17:59Speaker 8: that's the one good thing I took away from Cool World.
- 1:18:02Speaker 4: Was the toys soundtrack the natural evolution of the Cool
- 1:18:05Speaker 4: World soundtrack?
- 1:18:06Speaker 8: I think so.
- 1:18:06Speaker 4: Because for some reason those two movies are linked in
- 1:18:09Speaker 4: my brain and I don't know why they're linked.
- 1:18:11Speaker 8: Your brain is, you might be having an aneurysm.
- 1:18:14Speaker 4: I think it's because they're both movies that when I was,
- 1:18:17Speaker 4: you know, I was a teenager at the time and
- 1:18:19Speaker 4: I was like, these are the kind of weird movies
- 1:18:21Speaker 4: that are totally made for me. And I went to
- 1:18:24Speaker 4: both of them and was just completely disappointed.
- 1:18:26Speaker 8: That was my thing. I assumed you were going in going,
- 1:18:28Speaker 8: this is going to be awesome.
- 1:18:29Speaker 4: What am I watching?
- 1:18:31Speaker 13: Yeah, I was sure Toys was going to be amazing.
- 1:18:34Speaker 26: Yeah.
- 1:18:34Speaker 8: It's another threatened episode.
- 1:18:36Speaker 13: I don't even think I made it to the end
- 1:18:37Speaker 13: of that movie.
- 1:18:38Speaker 8: You have to pencil that one in, too. It's another
- 1:18:39Speaker 8: threatened episode.
- 1:18:40Speaker 4: See, this is why, you know, you asked me, like,
- 1:18:42Speaker 4: why haven't you watched a movie in a year? And
- 1:18:44Speaker 4: I'm telling you all the things that led up to
- 1:18:45Speaker 4: the fact that I quit watching movies. I'm like, I
- 1:18:48Speaker 4: went to this theater and I, you know... we paid $ 7.
- 1:18:50Speaker 4: I was like, this is going to be awesome. And
- 1:18:52Speaker 4: I walked out like my life is over.
- 1:18:54Speaker 8: So no, I'm hearing toys was so awesome. I don't
- 1:18:57Speaker 8: need to watch any other movies because it's the top
- 1:18:59Speaker 8: of the, everything else is just going to be just
- 1:19:02Speaker 8: a pale comparison to toys.
- 1:19:04Speaker 13: I do want the little car that's in toys though.
- 1:19:07Speaker 8: There are a lot of cool toys.
- 1:19:08Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
- 1:19:09Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:19:11Speaker 4: I think the world's probably come back around on toys
- 1:19:13Speaker 4: at this point. It's been long enough. I'm never going
- 1:19:16Speaker 4: to watch it again to see if my opinion changed.
- 1:19:18Speaker 8: I mean, once you're dead, you can do no wrong.
- 1:19:21Speaker 8: So everybody's going to look at it and go, this
- 1:19:22Speaker 8: performance is genius.
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: LL Cool J's amazing. Who's that other dude? That was
- 1:19:26Speaker 4: the takeaway for me.
- 1:19:27Speaker 8: I was like, look at LL Cool J. He can act.
- 1:19:30Speaker 4: He's going to be an actor. Could he act?
- 1:19:32Speaker 8: Now and NCIS later, look. He is cashing a paycheck
- 1:19:37Speaker 8: every week.
- 1:19:37Speaker 4: I don't remember him doing a good job acting in
- 1:19:40Speaker 4: that movie. I remember him doing a bunch of weird
- 1:19:42Speaker 4: mouth stuff. Like he would say a sentence and then
- 1:19:44Speaker 4: roll his mouth around. He's a little good. Like the
- 1:19:47Speaker 4: way that people have to be eating while they talk
- 1:19:50Speaker 4: in movies. And then they do that weird mouth thing.
- 1:19:53Speaker 8: Leave Marlon Brando out of this.
- 1:19:55Speaker 4: No, I'm talking about the dude that was in Deadwood
- 1:19:58Speaker 4: that was also in Coal Miner's Daughter. He was trying
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: to get Doolittle Lynn to fucking bootleg the moonshine. He
- 1:20:06Speaker 4: was like, dude, I can give you it. And he
- 1:20:08Speaker 4: was eating a mouthful of food. And then he'd stop
- 1:20:10Speaker 4: with his mouth halfway open full of food.
- 1:20:14Speaker 12: Wait, is that the guy from Newhart?
- 1:20:16Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:20:16Speaker 33: Yeah.
- 1:20:17Speaker 4: I don't remember.
- 1:20:18Speaker 8: Daryl or another Daryl? Which Daryl was he?
- 1:20:21Speaker 12: There's two Daryls and one Larry, right?
- 1:20:23Speaker 8: I think he was Larry. Larry actually had a career.
- 1:20:25Speaker 8: He turned up in a bunch of stuff. I've seen
- 1:20:27Speaker 8: him many times over the years.
- 1:20:28Speaker 4: I actually think that he's amazing, but like... That's an
- 1:20:30Speaker 4: observation that always bugged me about that stuff.
- 1:20:33Speaker 8: One of those Daryls was in the miniseries, The Blue
- 1:20:36Speaker 8: and the Gray.
- 1:20:38Speaker 12: I don't know what that is.
- 1:20:39Speaker 4: That sounds like Civil War talk to me.
- 1:20:41Speaker 12: But I don't know what that is.
- 1:20:43Speaker 8: You need to screw yourself on miniseries.
- 1:20:46Speaker 12: I opened myself up to that. I only know North
- 1:20:49Speaker 12: and South with Patrick Swayze.
- 1:20:50Speaker 8: See, it was kind of that same time, only North
- 1:20:52Speaker 8: and South was way more soap opera-y, so everybody liked
- 1:20:54Speaker 8: that one. This one was kind of dry.
- 1:20:57Speaker 12: This one was about war.
- 1:20:58Speaker 32: Yes.
- 1:20:59Speaker 4: Stupid war.
- 1:21:00Speaker 8: Nobody wants to watch that. David Bowie?
- 1:21:05Speaker 34: This episode is brought to you by Crosley Turntables. Starting

- 1:21:44Speaker 4: Oh, I do indeed. It's a lovely thing. I would
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: like to take a second to talk about the wonderful
- 1:21:50Speaker 4: Here is my drum. The David Bowie Christmas song?
- 1:21:55Speaker 8: Let's just let you do it and not play that one.
- 1:21:57Speaker 4: Bing Crosby.
- 1:21:59Speaker 8: It was a holiday classic and a crossover, once again,
- 1:22:02Speaker 8: we were all hoping for.
- 1:22:04Speaker 4: Yeah. That was basically the David Lee Roth and Lauryn
- 1:22:09Speaker 4: Hill of the 80s.
- 1:22:09Speaker 8: It most definitely was.
- 1:22:11Speaker 4: More so than David Bowie and Mick Jagger or David
- 1:22:13Speaker 4: Bowie and Queen. Let's be real.
- 1:22:17Speaker 8: Of weird places that songs have turned up, how about
- 1:22:22Speaker 8: Dead Man Walking? Which is on 1997's The Saint. Yes,
- 1:22:28Speaker 8: the Val Kilmer Saint soundtrack.
- 1:22:31Speaker 4: And not the soundtrack for Dead Man Walking.
- 1:22:33Speaker 8: Not the soundtrack for Dead Man Walking.
- 1:22:34Speaker 4: But Dead Man Walking also comes from the same album
- 1:22:37Speaker 4: with the song Seven Years in Tibet, which was not
- 1:22:39Speaker 4: on the Seven Years in Tibet soundtrack. This is getting deep. Earthling.
- 1:22:43Speaker 21: Yep.
- 1:22:44Speaker 5: He swallows his hair Tears his eyes from the screen.
- 1:23:09Speaker 7: As his past puts him back In a blinding.
- 1:23:13Speaker 29: City Now I'm wiser than dreams Let me fly, fly,
- 1:23:45Speaker 29: fly While I'm touching tomorrow And I.
- 1:23:51Speaker 7: Know who's there When.
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: Silhouettes fall And I'm gone.
- 1:24:00Speaker 7: Like I'm dancing on.
- 1:24:02Speaker 32: Angels under the lamplight Shaking the.
- 1:24:33Speaker 24: Sex and the bones and the boys that we want.
- 1:24:39Speaker 3: An alien nation in therapy sliding naked with you.
- 1:24:45Speaker 29: Like a bad temperature on the rain-slipped.
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: Streets And I'm gone, gone, gone Now I'm old with
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: the movies Now I'm wiser than dreams And I'm gone Through.
- 1:25:58Speaker 7: The crack of the bat Like a dead man I'm
- 1:27:12Speaker 7: dancing on angels.
- 1:29:20Speaker 4: Which also included the hit song I'm Afraid of Americans,
- 1:29:23Speaker 4: but Trent Reznor was nowhere to be seen on that version,
- 1:29:27Speaker 4: even though that is the official canonical version of that song.
- 1:29:30Speaker 8: I have heard both of those. It's a very different take.
- 1:29:35Speaker 8: Speaking of that, Let's go to Heart's Filthy Lesson. Which
- 1:29:41Speaker 8: I feel like is, if you ever feel the influence
- 1:29:44Speaker 8: of another artist creeping into someone's career, that technically is
- 1:29:49Speaker 8: written by David Bowie. But good God, does it not
- 1:29:52Speaker 8: sound like Trent Reznor was in the room with him
- 1:29:54Speaker 8: at the time?
- 1:29:55Speaker 4: It does not sound like that. I know, I have
- 1:29:58Speaker 4: read the... year that brian you know the the a
- 1:30:03Speaker 4: year in my life by brian you know or whatever
- 1:30:05Speaker 4: it's where he chronicled the whole year of 1995 or
- 1:30:07Speaker 4: whatever and that was the year that he recorded uh
- 1:30:11Speaker 4: outside the david bowie album and the year that he
- 1:30:14Speaker 4: recorded uh the youtube album with lemon on it with
- 1:30:17Speaker 4: the video with all the girls like all the feet
- 1:30:20Speaker 4: on the face yeah i think it was pop i
- 1:30:22Speaker 4: think it was pop or zuropa maybe.
- 1:30:24Speaker 8: One of the two those two were kind of the
- 1:30:25Speaker 8: same thing yeah That was that era of them.
- 1:30:29Speaker 4: But the reason that album with the Heart's Filthy Lessons
- 1:30:32Speaker 4: sounds like Nine Inch Nails is actually because David Bowie
- 1:30:35Speaker 4: was listening to Scott Walker's new album. Scott Walker's new
- 1:30:39Speaker 4: album was set to drop while they were recording that album.
- 1:30:43Speaker 4: And he was like, okay. He told Brian, you know,
- 1:30:45Speaker 4: now listen. If what we're doing sounds anything like the
- 1:30:48Speaker 4: Scott Walker album, we're going to have to scrap this
- 1:30:51Speaker 4: entire project. Because for some reason... If you've heard the
- 1:30:55Speaker 4: album Tilt, which was the Scott Walker album that that
- 1:30:58Speaker 4: was compared to, it sounds a lot more like outside
- 1:31:04Speaker 4: than it does Nine Inch Nails. Because as far as
- 1:31:06Speaker 4: I know, Scott Walker doesn't know who Nine Inch Nails is.
- 1:31:11Speaker 4: But it's closer to Scott Walker than Nine Inch Nails,
- 1:31:13Speaker 4: which in a vacuum, if all three of those albums
- 1:31:17Speaker 4: were the only three albums that existed, they would all
- 1:31:19Speaker 4: sound alike, but.
- 1:31:22Speaker 4: I guess the album I'm comparing it to is Downward Spiral.
- 1:31:26Speaker 4: That would have been the most recent Nine Inch Nails
- 1:31:28Speaker 4: album at the time.
- 1:31:29Speaker 8: And almost since then. It's not like they put out tons.
- 1:31:33Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's actually more a response to the Scott
- 1:31:38Speaker 4: Walker album, the way that album finally turned out, than
- 1:31:40Speaker 4: it is to Nine Inch Nails. Because as far as
- 1:31:42Speaker 4: I know, the Nine Inch Nails stuff happened after that
- 1:31:44Speaker 4: album was released. Because David Bowie contacted Trent Reznor and said, hey,
- 1:31:48Speaker 4: I just made this weird album, and I think maybe
- 1:31:51Speaker 4: you sound like me now. Stop stealing my thing. So
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: we should tour together, right? And that's how the Nine
- 1:31:58Speaker 4: Inch Nails collaboration came together.
- 1:32:00Speaker 12: Now we're talking about Republican Governor Scott Walker from Wisconsin, right?
- 1:32:04Speaker 4: Yes, that is correct. No, Scott Walker from, he is
- 1:32:10Speaker 4: Scott Walker. The dude that puts piles of meat on
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: lumber and then cuts it in half with a saw
- 1:32:17Speaker 4: and records that as a song. That's Scott Walker.
- 1:32:19Speaker 8: Speaking of weirdo artists. Yes. That's the kind we're talking about.
- 1:32:24Speaker 4: He was a pop sensation in the 60s, and he
- 1:32:27Speaker 4: was in the Walker Brothers, and they did all these
- 1:32:30Speaker 4: wonderful 60s pop songs. And then at some point, there
- 1:32:33Speaker 4: was like, Scott Walker had a stroke or something, or
- 1:32:37Speaker 4: the Fight Club in him came out, and he became
- 1:32:40Speaker 4: this weird creature that was not this pop idol at all,
- 1:32:44Speaker 4: and started making weird creature music that sounds like David
- 1:32:47Speaker 4: Lynch movies as music.
- 1:32:50Speaker 8: I can't believe I don't know who this person is.
- 1:32:52Speaker 4: There's a documentary about him called 30th Century Man that
- 1:32:55Speaker 4: was on Netflix for a million years. I don't know
- 1:32:57Speaker 4: if it still is. But in that, he's making not
- 1:33:01Speaker 4: his new album that just came out a couple years ago,
- 1:33:03Speaker 4: but the album... He put out a whole bunch of
- 1:33:06Speaker 4: albums in the 60s and the 70s, and then he
- 1:33:08Speaker 4: put out one album in the 80s in, like, 84,
- 1:33:11Speaker 4: and then he put out one album in the 90s,
- 1:33:13Speaker 4: one album in the 2000s, and then he just put
- 1:33:15Speaker 4: out an album in, like, 2014.
- 1:33:16Speaker 8: He's got a plan.
- 1:33:17Speaker 4: But all of these albums are, like, serious fucking weird shit, right? Like,
- 1:33:23Speaker 4: actual pieces, like, it's hard to make out exactly what's happening.
- 1:33:27Speaker 4: But he's very distinctly, like, you're like, oh, this guy
- 1:33:31Speaker 4: can sing his fucking ass off. And you can tell
- 1:33:34Speaker 4: that he used to be like this pop sensation because
- 1:33:36Speaker 4: he's got this wonderful voice. But there are like people
- 1:33:38Speaker 4: being murdered in the background. And you can hear like
- 1:33:40Speaker 4: pig eyeballs like hitting the floor. Because that's what's actually
- 1:33:44Speaker 4: happening in the song. And it's so fucking weird and amazing.
- 1:33:48Speaker 4: But the one Scott Walker album that came out in
- 1:33:51Speaker 4: the 90s was the one that David Bowie was like,
- 1:33:53Speaker 4: I hope we don't sound like Scott Walker because now
- 1:33:56Speaker 4: we're just going to have to throw all these songs
- 1:33:57Speaker 4: away and do something completely different because I don't... Fuck that.
- 1:34:01Speaker 13: But based on that description, does anybody say, I really
- 1:34:04Speaker 13: want to sound like Scott Walker?
- 1:34:05Speaker 33: I mean.
- 1:34:06Speaker 4: I want to hear it.
- 1:34:07Speaker 8: I think after that, probably a lot of weird kids did.
- 1:34:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:34:11Speaker 21: But.
- 1:34:12Speaker 4: Scott Walker and David Bowie went way back. They had
- 1:34:14Speaker 4: a mutual respect because in, like, 67, they both made...
- 1:34:17Speaker 4: That was when David Bowie made his first real album.
- 1:34:20Speaker 4: And Scott Walker was in the period where he was,
- 1:34:22Speaker 4: you know, 67. He still had the pompadour, but the
- 1:34:25Speaker 4: sides were kind of long and he had sideburns. So, like,
- 1:34:28Speaker 4: you know, they were kind of making the same music
- 1:34:30Speaker 4: and they had this mutual respect. And then David Bowie
- 1:34:32Speaker 4: stole Scott Walker's girlfriend. And then they were friends, but
- 1:34:36Speaker 4: then they were frenemies. And then they hated each other,
- 1:34:38Speaker 4: but then they kind of liked each other again.
- 1:34:39Speaker 8: This is the 70s.
- 1:34:40Speaker 4: Yeah, and then... Scott Walker turned into this weird creature
- 1:34:45Speaker 4: that was not at all a human being anymore, and
- 1:34:48Speaker 4: it was amazing.
- 1:34:48Speaker 13: That's what happens when David Bowie steals your girlfriend.
- 1:34:51Speaker 4: Yeah. And David Bowie did, long story short, David Bowie
- 1:34:54Speaker 4: did Dancing in the Street, and Scott Walker had Billy
- 1:34:58Speaker 4: Ocean do backup vocals on his album that if you
- 1:35:01Speaker 4: think of Billy Ocean, and then you think of the
- 1:35:03Speaker 4: thing I just described with the pig eyeballs hitting the floor,
- 1:35:06Speaker 4: it's a real weird combination. That's all.
- 1:35:09Speaker 13: This sounds amazing.
- 1:35:11Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:35:11Speaker 8: Speaking of slicing through meat and body parts hitting the floor,
- 1:35:16Speaker 8: the soundtrack this is featured on is Seven, which was
- 1:35:20Speaker 8: another reason I wanted to feature that because, again, regardless
- 1:35:24Speaker 8: of the time period of the Trent Reznor effect, if
- 1:35:30Speaker 8: anything fits that sound of Bowie's, it's that era of
- 1:35:34Speaker 8: David Fincher. It's a very, again, trying to imagine those
- 1:35:39Speaker 8: two not having anything to do with each other is
- 1:35:42Speaker 8: kind of weird because yeah listening to the song again
- 1:35:44Speaker 8: today i'm like yeah this is just the soundtrack to
- 1:35:47Speaker 8: seven like it's just it's weird and grimy and dirty
- 1:35:51Speaker 8: and yeah they need to go together.
- 1:36:12Speaker 20: There's always a diamond friendly Sitting in the live hotel.
- 1:36:23Speaker 6: The heart's filthy lesson.
- 1:36:28Speaker 4: With her hundred.
- 1:36:29Speaker 7: Miles to have If there was always something between us
- 1:36:42Speaker 7: If there was always something between.
- 1:36:44Speaker 24: Us Other than our clothes.
- 1:36:50Speaker 14: Something in our sky.
- 1:36:53Speaker 24: Something in our sky Something in our blood Something in
- 1:36:59Speaker 24: our sky Tidy.
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: Tidy Let's beware.
- 1:37:10Speaker 7: Of horrendous threats. It's the heart-built lesson. Heart-built lesson. Heart-built lesson.
- 1:37:58Speaker 7: Falls upon deaf ears.
- 1:38:01Speaker 2: Falls upon deaf ears.
- 1:38:16Speaker 3: Alba, Alba, if there was always some kind of future.
- 1:38:25Speaker 7: Alba, Alba, if there was always some kind of future.
- 1:38:20Speaker 7: Something in our.
- 1:38:27Speaker 14: Skies Something.
- 1:38:32Speaker 7: In our skies Something in.
- 1:38:38Speaker 33: Our blood Something in our skies I'm already in my grave.
- 1:39:10Speaker 14: I'm already.
- 1:39:12Speaker 33: I'm already.
- 1:39:40Speaker 7: I think I've lost my way This guy is methodical, exacting,
- 1:40:30Speaker 7: and worst of all, patient.
- 1:40:32Speaker 4: There's a song called Seven on the later David Bowie
- 1:40:34Speaker 4: album that has nothing to do with the movie.
- 1:40:37Speaker 8: Also, seven years in Tibet. It's all coming back around.
- 1:40:41Speaker 4: The movie Seven features is the breakout role for future
- 1:40:44Speaker 4: Richard Nixon, Kevin Spacey.
- 1:40:46Speaker 8: But what about Brad Pitt?
- 1:40:49Speaker 2: Who?
- 1:40:49Speaker 8: He'd lost the lovely hair by then.
- 1:40:52Speaker 4: I don't know who that is.
- 1:40:53Speaker 8: What about that dreamy guy in the poster you had?
- 1:40:56Speaker 4: Morgan Freeman?
- 1:40:58Speaker 8: Yes, said his granddaughter.
- 1:41:00Speaker 2: Gabriel.
- 1:41:01Speaker 8: Anyway.
- 1:41:03Speaker 4: Dude from that movie with the chick with the Christ wounds?
- 1:41:07Speaker 8: Exactly. There's our quote for the episode.
- 1:41:13Speaker 14: Oh.
- 1:41:15Speaker 8: So, again, someone who likes to redo their stuff for
- 1:41:19Speaker 8: weird movie soundtracks for a movie that is known for
- 1:41:23Speaker 8: its lead character, His love of popular music. Anyway, this
- 1:41:28Speaker 8: would be something in the air. The American Psycho remix.
- 1:41:32Speaker 4: Great, great song.
- 1:41:35Speaker 2: Personal favorite.
- 1:42:06Speaker 3: I guess we lived it up, something in the air.
- 1:42:30Speaker 7: You smile too fast and can't think of a thing
- 1:42:34Speaker 7: to say. Live with the best times.
- 1:42:42Speaker 17: Live with the worst.
- 1:42:46Speaker 7: Dance with you too long.
- 1:42:54Speaker 14: Nothing left.
- 1:42:59Speaker 11: Let's take what we can.
- 1:43:02Speaker 3: I know you're on your way.
- 1:43:11Speaker 7: We've raced for.
- 1:43:13Speaker 8: The last time.
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: Place of no return and there's something in.
- 1:43:22Speaker 7: The air something in my heart I've danced with you
- 1:43:32Speaker 7: too long yeah something in And what could you do?
- 1:43:48Speaker 7: I'll lose you.
- 1:43:49Speaker 2: We can.
- 1:43:51Speaker 7: Avoid the clash The big.
- 1:43:53Speaker 3: Mistake Now we're gonna pay and pay.
- 1:44:21Speaker 7: The sentence of our lives.
- 1:44:23Speaker 21: Can't believe I'm asking.
- 1:44:27Speaker 7: You to go.
- 1:44:31Speaker 3: We used what we could to get the things we want.
- 1:44:37Speaker 3: But we lost each other in the war.
- 1:44:46Speaker 7: Guess you know I never wanted anyone more than you.
- 1:44:52Speaker 7: Lived all our best times.
- 1:44:58Speaker 3: Left with the worst.
- 1:44:59Speaker 7: I've danced with you too long. Say what you will.
- 1:45:11Speaker 7: There's something in there.
- 1:45:17Speaker 3: Rage for the last time.
- 1:45:21Speaker 7: But I know you'll hold your head up high.
- 1:45:26Speaker 3: There's nothing you have to say.
- 1:45:31Speaker 7: There's nothing in your eyes But there's something in the air.
- 1:45:43Speaker 3: Something in my eye I've danced with you too long
- 1:45:50Speaker 3: There's something I have to say.
- 1:46:38Speaker 7: Dance with me.
- 1:47:21Speaker 4: Have you guys all seen the clip from Extras? From
- 1:47:25Speaker 4: the David Bowie episode of Extras where he on the
- 1:47:29Speaker 4: spot improvs a song about how fat... Yeah, actually, that.
- 1:47:34Speaker 8: Was one of the things people posted after he died,
- 1:47:36Speaker 8: which is a fun thing. Like, hey, watch him make
- 1:47:38Speaker 8: fun of this guy.
- 1:47:39Speaker 4: It was amazing. He just made that up on the spot,
- 1:47:41Speaker 4: and it was brilliant.
- 1:47:42Speaker 8: I mean, he is David Bowie.
- 1:47:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:47:44Speaker 8: I'm assuming you could just give him a piano and
- 1:47:46Speaker 8: be like, here, make a song. Oh, wait, that's how
- 1:47:49Speaker 8: he does it.
- 1:47:50Speaker 4: I only recently learned that David Bowie, like they approached
- 1:47:56Speaker 4: David Bowie for that Flight of the Conchords episode. And
- 1:47:59Speaker 4: he was like, you know, maybe I would do it,
- 1:48:02Speaker 4: but I just did this comedy thing. And it was
- 1:48:03Speaker 4: the extras thing, I think. He was like, I just
- 1:48:05Speaker 4: did this comedy thing and I don't want to do
- 1:48:07Speaker 4: two comedy things like in the same time period. So
- 1:48:10Speaker 4: I'm just going to pass on this one. So they
- 1:48:11Speaker 4: did it without him.
- 1:48:12Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 1:48:13Speaker 4: I thought, all right.
- 1:48:14Speaker 8: I mean, it does, like, you have to watch that
- 1:48:17Speaker 8: or you do kind of become a joke. If all
- 1:48:19Speaker 8: you're known for. is making fun of your own persona,
- 1:48:22Speaker 8: eventually nobody takes you seriously anymore.
- 1:48:25Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:48:25Speaker 8: So I guess, you know, you have to make those calls.
- 1:48:28Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:48:28Speaker 8: When you're a super rock star.
- 1:48:30Speaker 4: Yeah. But it would, whatever he would have done with
- 1:48:33Speaker 4: Flight of the Conchords would have been better than all
- 1:48:35Speaker 4: of the albums he put out between 1999 and, this
- 1:48:39Speaker 4: year two days before he died because those were.
- 1:48:42Speaker 13: Not good albums i really like lazarus.
- 1:48:46Speaker 4: No lazarus is great black star is amazing yeah everything
- 1:48:49Speaker 4: everything pre.
- 1:48:50Speaker 13: That i like the album before uh black star um
- 1:48:54Speaker 13: i didn't really i didn't think it was as great
- 1:48:56Speaker 13: as everyone made it out to be but i thought
- 1:48:58Speaker 13: it was.
- 1:48:58Speaker 4: Enjoyable yeah i don't yeah yeah yeah yeah that's that's
- 1:49:04Speaker 4: pretty you hit it.
- 1:49:05Speaker 8: Exactly Oh, I don't know. Did you have any normal
- 1:49:12Speaker 8: recognizable songs that you wanted to work in specifically because
- 1:49:16Speaker 8: of a movie tie in?
- 1:49:18Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 1:49:21Speaker 8: I mean, my, my, if we're working in like recognizable,
- 1:49:25Speaker 8: well-known songs, it's funny that my go-to, like one of
- 1:49:29Speaker 8: the first ones I think of is because I, for
- 1:49:31Speaker 8: some reason had not heard it till the movie. And, like,
- 1:49:35Speaker 8: of all the, like, I knew a ton of David Bowie, especially, like,
- 1:49:39Speaker 8: the stuff of that era. But, like, I'm sitting there
- 1:49:43Speaker 8: watching A Knight's Tale going, this song's really cool. Wait,
- 1:49:48Speaker 8: have I not heard this before?
- 1:49:50Speaker 4: What song?
- 1:49:50Speaker 8: Golden Years kicks in in the middle of the dance
- 1:49:53Speaker 8: scene of A Knight's Tale. And, like, after that, I
- 1:49:56Speaker 8: hear it everywhere. And I'm like, did I really not
- 1:49:59Speaker 8: ever hear Golden Years until 1997? That seems weird.
- 1:50:02Speaker 4: Was that before or after the Marilyn Manson cover? Before,
- 1:50:07Speaker 4: I believe.
- 1:50:07Speaker 28: Yeah.
- 1:50:08Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:50:08Speaker 13: Because, again, I don't remember hearing it before that movie.
- 1:50:13Speaker 8: That was just a weird thing that I was just like,
- 1:50:16Speaker 8: that's Bowie. Like, I'm knowing the person.
- 1:50:19Speaker 4: I mean, it's unmistakable. Yeah.
- 1:50:21Speaker 8: That it's Bowie. And it's super well known after the fact.
- 1:50:24Speaker 8: I'm like, yeah, everybody knows that one. Everybody heard that one.
- 1:50:26Speaker 8: How I made it that far or blocked it out
- 1:50:28Speaker 8: with some sort of horrible story I don't know about.
- 1:50:30Speaker 34: But, yeah.
- 1:50:32Speaker 8: A Knight's Tale. Golden Years. It's very weird.
- 1:50:36Speaker 4: See, I thought what you were going to say was
- 1:50:40Speaker 4: young Americans in the fucking Molly Ringwald movie. I can't
- 1:50:44Speaker 4: remember the name of. It was Molly Ringwald. It was
- 1:50:47Speaker 4: a Johnny Hughes movie, I think. It opens the movie.
- 1:50:51Speaker 2: Like 16 Kins? Maybe.
- 1:50:53Speaker 8: Or Pretty in Pink.
- 1:50:55Speaker 4: Which one has Matt Dillon in it? There's a movie
- 1:51:01Speaker 4: with Molly Ringwald and maybe Matt Dillon. And at the end,
- 1:51:04Speaker 4: Matt Dillon's driving his Camaro and he goes to this
- 1:51:07Speaker 4: wedding and Molly Ringwald's there. Maybe it's not Molly Ringwald.
- 1:51:11Speaker 13: You're thinking of Sixteen Candles, but that wasn't Matt Dillon.
- 1:51:13Speaker 8: Yeah, that's true.
- 1:51:15Speaker 4: He looks like Matt Dillon of that era. He's Flamingo
- 1:51:18Speaker 4: Kid Matt Dillon.
- 1:51:19Speaker 8: I don't know who that was. He's the guy who
- 1:51:21Speaker 8: makes furniture.
- 1:51:22Speaker 32: Yeah.
- 1:51:23Speaker 12: Well, he stopped making furniture to be in Mermaids, and
- 1:51:25Speaker 12: then he went back to making furniture again.
- 1:51:27Speaker 8: Wait, is he the dude in Mermaids?
- 1:51:28Speaker 12: Yeah, he's the dude in Mermaids. That was like his comeback.
- 1:51:30Speaker 12: He was like, oh, I'm bored with being a sex symbol.
- 1:51:32Speaker 12: I'm going to go make furniture. And then he was like, oh,
- 1:51:34Speaker 12: I don't know. Maybe I'll try the acting thing again. No,
- 1:51:36Speaker 12: I'm bored with it again.
- 1:51:38Speaker 13: So much like my own life.
- 1:51:40Speaker 4: Doesn't that movie start with Young Americans? I thought it did.
- 1:51:43Speaker 4: I know it opens one of that tier of movies.
- 1:51:48Speaker 4: It's the song that plays in the beginning, and when
- 1:51:50Speaker 4: I saw it, I was like, they're doing a song
- 1:51:52Speaker 4: where David Bowie probably would have re-recorded Young Americans, but
- 1:51:57Speaker 4: instead it's the 70s version, which by that point.
- 1:52:00Speaker 12: Yes, I can confirm. John Hughes' film, Sixteen Candles, Wikipedia
- 1:52:03Speaker 12: backs you up.
- 1:52:04Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:52:05Speaker 4: Because... You know, at that point, you know, the 80s
- 1:52:08Speaker 4: was nostalgic for the 50s and wanted nothing to do
- 1:52:11Speaker 4: with the 70s.
- 1:52:12Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:52:13Speaker 4: So I'm like, why is this mid-70s, like, kind of
- 1:52:15Speaker 4: funky David Bowie song playing when he probably would have
- 1:52:18Speaker 4: done an 80s version of this that might have been terrible,
- 1:52:20Speaker 4: but he wouldn't have done it.
- 1:52:21Speaker 8: Yeah, at the time, I'm sure he would have, yeah.
- 1:52:23Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:52:23Speaker 23: Um.
- 1:52:25Speaker 12: I'm going to go ahead and just read the entire
- 1:52:27Speaker 12: In Other Media listing in Wikipedia for young Americans.
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:52:32Speaker 12: Because it will help you contextualize your concerns over its
- 1:52:36Speaker 12: use in Sixteen Candles. The song has accompanied the end
- 1:52:40Speaker 12: credits of Dogville and Manderley, the first two films of
- 1:52:42Speaker 12: the Lars von Trier USA Land of Opportunities trilogy. It
- 1:52:47Speaker 12: was also used briefly in the Nicolas Cage film Lord
- 1:52:49Speaker 12: of War. It was also played at the beginning of
- 1:52:52Speaker 12: the film Down to You, starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and
- 1:52:54Speaker 12: Julia Stiles. It was used in the trailer to the
- 1:52:57Speaker 12: Ben Stiller-directed film Reality Bites to show how Generation X
- 1:53:00Speaker 12: has been affected by earlier American history, and it was
- 1:53:02Speaker 12: used in the 2012 thriller Jack Reacher, starring Tom Cruise.
- 1:53:06Speaker 12: So basically, they will throw this song in any movie.
- 1:53:09Speaker 12: Doesn't fucking matter.
- 1:53:10Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:53:10Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:53:11Speaker 12: That's your answer.
- 1:53:11Speaker 21: All right.
- 1:53:14Speaker 7: Wow.
- 1:53:14Speaker 4: I just see the musical director of any film. Oh,
- 1:53:17Speaker 4: we're one song short.
- 1:53:19Speaker 13: What do we get, young Americans?
- 1:53:20Speaker 14: Okay.
- 1:53:20Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:53:21Speaker 8: What can we.
- 1:53:22Speaker 4: It's kind of like, what's the... Is it because that
- 1:53:25Speaker 4: was the song David Bowie was like, I'll tell you what,
- 1:53:27Speaker 4: you guys can have this one.
- 1:53:29Speaker 12: This is a freebie, Bowie.
- 1:53:30Speaker 4: You don't even have to pay me, you can totally
- 1:53:32Speaker 4: just have this one.
- 1:53:32Speaker 8: Maybe like in the Bowie catalog, like he's got one
- 1:53:34Speaker 8: on special. He's like, you know what, this week, young Americans,
- 1:53:37Speaker 8: half price. Go ahead, take it.
- 1:53:40Speaker 12: Was that the movie meltdown premiere of Down to You?
- 1:53:44Speaker 12: Has anybody ever mentioned Down to You before?
- 1:53:47Speaker 8: I mean, it wouldn't be out of the question. You've
- 1:53:50Speaker 8: heard our show.
- 1:53:50Speaker 12: But fair enough.
- 1:53:52Speaker 8: I don't think that, I mean, you know, you know
- 1:53:54Speaker 8: what big Freddie Prinze Jr.
- 1:53:56Speaker 2: Fans we are.
- 1:53:58Speaker 8: We'll probably do a whole episode on it. Any that
- 1:54:08Speaker 8: you've forgotten.
- 1:54:09Speaker 12: Any that you've... I mean, my feeling is that you
- 1:54:11Speaker 12: could just name any David Bowie song, right? And there's
- 1:54:14Speaker 12: the soundtrack tie-in.
- 1:54:15Speaker 28: Or any movie.
- 1:54:15Speaker 8: That's kind of how this works. I hate to tell you.
- 1:54:18Speaker 4: Everybody always makes.
- 1:54:19Speaker 8: It so like, but it has to be in a sound...
- 1:54:21Speaker 8: I'm like, everything's in a fucking soundtrack. It's like ever
- 1:54:23Speaker 8: once in a while, I will hit something like, I
- 1:54:25Speaker 8: cannot believe that's not in a soundtrack. Usually, especially somebody
- 1:54:29Speaker 8: huge like Bowie, like, again, look at the movies I've pulled.
- 1:54:32Speaker 8: Everything's in a fucking soundtrack.
- 1:54:34Speaker 4: My problem is I don't know what soundtracks are out there.
- 1:54:38Speaker 4: You know what I mean? The David Bowie part of
- 1:54:41Speaker 4: this is the part that I'm good at. The soundtrack
- 1:54:43Speaker 4: part is not the part that I know much about.
- 1:54:46Speaker 8: Information superhighway where we can find these things with.
- 1:54:49Speaker 17: The click of a button.
- 1:54:51Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. I feel like Lucy's on it.
- 1:54:53Speaker 8: Too bad.
- 1:54:53Speaker 13: It's a term I haven't heard in 20 years.
- 1:54:58Speaker 8: I know. I was trying to pull the most dumb
- 1:55:00Speaker 8: version I could.
- 1:55:01Speaker 4: If you want to play their... I don't know. Okay,
- 1:55:06Speaker 4: I will say the movie Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders
- 1:55:09Speaker 4: from Mars is just a concert, right?
- 1:55:13Speaker 8: But that got theatrically released, right? That counts.
- 1:55:17Speaker 4: I heard the soundtrack before I saw the movie, and
- 1:55:19Speaker 4: I actually don't really. The movie's cool because it captures
- 1:55:25Speaker 4: the quintessential period that when you think of David Bowie,
- 1:55:28Speaker 4: you think of this period, or a lot of people do.
- 1:55:32Speaker 4: but I heard the soundtrack before I saw the movie
- 1:55:34Speaker 4: and the soundtrack is amazing. I mean, it's, it's a
- 1:55:37Speaker 4: good set there. They're really fucked up and you can
- 1:55:40Speaker 4: tell because the drummer's like, like missing his drum rolls and,
- 1:55:45Speaker 4: and the guitar player's like fucking up the solos, but,
- 1:55:48Speaker 4: but it sounds really good.
- 1:55:50Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:55:51Speaker 4: And I saw the movie, uh, after I, after I
- 1:55:54Speaker 4: heard it and I was just like, eh, it's more
- 1:55:57Speaker 4: boring than just listening to it. But, uh, that, that,
- 1:56:01Speaker 4: version of the song watch that man on that movie
- 1:56:05Speaker 4: and on that soundtrack is the best version of that
- 1:56:08Speaker 4: song period.
- 1:56:27Speaker 3: Shake it to a party that lasted all night Everybody
- 1:56:31Speaker 3: drank a lot of something nice Wasn't no old-fashioned man,
- 1:56:36Speaker 3: a married man Lookin' up to me, my college friend Said.
- 1:56:41Speaker 7: Said Ladies know the.
- 1:56:44Speaker 29: Band, but the music was sad No one took their
- 1:56:47Speaker 29: eyes off the.
- 1:56:48Speaker 23: Ringer She swore like a sick, like.
- 1:56:52Speaker 21: A whore, but fell asleep better and better.
- 1:56:57Speaker 33: So, so.
- 1:56:58Speaker 7: Yeah, I began.
- 1:57:00Speaker 20: To freeze when the barren alabaster man stopped his knees.
- 1:57:05Speaker 3: Yeah, so we watched the game, dropping.
- 1:57:10Speaker 7: All the mirrors in shame. What's that man? Honey, watch
- 1:57:30Speaker 7: that now.
- 1:57:34Speaker 3: Walks like a jerk when he's only taking care of
- 1:57:37Speaker 3: the room.
- 1:57:39Speaker 7: No, he must be me too. So shake it, hug it,
- 1:58:04Speaker 7: look so dry. The fun is for joking, and also smoking.
- 1:58:09Speaker 7: Everybody's battling for a reason why.
- 1:58:12Speaker 3: Girl, on the phone, would you leave me alone? Throw
- 1:58:18Speaker 3: back the song, I'll tell people.
- 1:58:22Speaker 7: Lemon in the back with a top of life. And
- 1:58:25Speaker 7: the fellas on the street shop need a hand. Yeah,
- 1:58:32Speaker 7: I was thinking I could live because I couldn't understand
- 1:58:36Speaker 7: the conversation. Yeah, so I ran to the street looking
- 1:58:42Speaker 7: for information.
- 1:58:43Speaker 11: What's that man?
- 1:58:44Speaker 3: I want to watch that man. Talks like a jerk,
- 1:58:53Speaker 3: but he can hit.
- 1:58:55Speaker 7: You with a fucking spoon. What's that man?
- 1:59:07Speaker 3: What's that man?
- 1:59:18Speaker 7: What's that man?
- 1:59:21Speaker 3: What's that man?
- 1:59:44Speaker 14: What's that man?
- 1:59:51Speaker 7: What's that man?
- 1:59:53Speaker 3: What's that man? What's that man?
- 2:00:12Speaker 7: What's that man?
- 2:00:20Speaker 4: The version that actually made it to the album, which
- 2:00:23Speaker 4: came out after the movie, I think, is fucking terrible.
- 2:00:27Speaker 4: I don't understand because this was a conversation I was
- 2:00:31Speaker 4: actually having with somebody really recently. The song Watch That
- 2:00:34Speaker 4: Man on the album Aladdin Sane sounds like David Bowie
- 2:00:37Speaker 4: has fallen down in a well and they've covered it
- 2:00:40Speaker 4: up and decided to record his vocals that way because...
- 2:00:44Speaker 4: And all the music's like.
- 2:00:47Speaker 4: But he's way off in the background. Crazy artist. And
- 2:00:50Speaker 4: it's the only song on that album that's mixed that way.
- 2:00:54Speaker 4: And it's so baffling that that was... Because, you know,
- 2:00:57Speaker 4: that album, unlike Pin Up, sounds like they actually did
- 2:01:00Speaker 4: some takes of some songs, right? Maybe not a lot,
- 2:01:03Speaker 4: but some of the best piano work in rock music, period,
- 2:01:07Speaker 4: is on that album. Like, on the song Lady Grinning Soul, specifically,
- 2:01:12Speaker 4: and also on the song Aladdin Sane. Like, that piano
- 2:01:14Speaker 4: is just nuts. Like, in the best way possible. But
- 2:01:17Speaker 4: that song, the version of that song that they use,
- 2:01:20Speaker 4: I don't know why they fucking... Like, on the original album,
- 2:01:25Speaker 4: it sounds terrible. On the remasters, they didn't remaster it
- 2:01:28Speaker 4: so his vocals are audible. It's just like... It's such
- 2:01:33Speaker 4: a good song, but it's such a huge oversight. Like,
- 2:01:36Speaker 4: why would you do that? And it's not that the... Like,
- 2:01:41Speaker 4: the Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars soundtrack version
- 2:01:45Speaker 4: is really good. But, I mean, there's probably a better
- 2:01:48Speaker 4: version of that out there. It's just, like, those are
- 2:01:51Speaker 4: the two official releases that I can compare to each other. Like,
- 2:01:55Speaker 4: the two that I consider the main versions of that song. And, like,
- 2:01:59Speaker 4: the actual version of the song is awful. And I don't...
- 2:02:03Speaker 4: I mean, the band's all right. But why are you
- 2:02:06Speaker 4: taking the person who is, like, who we came to
- 2:02:09Speaker 4: see the show for... And throwing them down a well
- 2:02:11Speaker 4: and covering the well. Because he's an artist. I don't
- 2:02:14Speaker 4: think he made that decision.
- 2:02:16Speaker 8: Or he's on a lot of drugs.
- 2:02:18Speaker 4: I think he did make that decision. Drugs, milk, and peppers.
- 2:02:22Speaker 2: All right.
- 2:02:24Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's so weird how that happens. That phenomenon
- 2:02:30Speaker 4: in music where... And again, I.
- 2:02:33Speaker 8: Feel like the producer had a lot more reign back
- 2:02:35Speaker 8: then because they did their own thing. Artists were different
- 2:02:39Speaker 8: than the guy behind the knobs. And half the time,
- 2:02:43Speaker 8: they didn't have any say in it. They're like, you
- 2:02:44Speaker 8: go record, I'll do what I need to do, and
- 2:02:46Speaker 8: I'll put the album out. That was probably at that
- 2:02:49Speaker 8: point when the artists were like, no, I think I
- 2:02:51Speaker 8: want to do my own stuff, so... It's maybe coming
- 2:02:54Speaker 8: off of that, but you do see a lot of
- 2:02:55Speaker 8: weird choices made in that 70s era in general. But
- 2:03:00Speaker 8: even for weird mixing and editing, I feel like, yeah,
- 2:03:04Speaker 8: that's probably before it becomes the even more weird thing
- 2:03:07Speaker 8: the 80s turned into.
- 2:03:09Speaker 4: Yeah. Let's talk about the 80s.
- 2:03:13Speaker 12: Speaking of the 80s, do you have the theme to
- 2:03:15Speaker 12: cat people on your list?
- 2:03:17Speaker 8: As mentioned earlier, I feel like that's how we need
- 2:03:21Speaker 8: to go out.
- 2:03:21Speaker 4: Putting out fires?
- 2:03:23Speaker 12: Yep.
- 2:03:24Speaker 8: And technically, if you go back several years, we've played
- 2:03:27Speaker 8: it on the show before, but I found a loophole.
- 2:03:30Speaker 8: We were playing it because of the cool and glorious
- 2:03:33Speaker 8: bastards tie in, not the original cat people tie in.
- 2:03:37Speaker 8: So I think we can play it because of cat
- 2:03:39Speaker 8: people and we're in the clear.
- 2:03:42Speaker 4: Would that be the original version of the song cat
- 2:03:44Speaker 4: people and not the reworked version? I'm guessing so. I
- 2:03:49Speaker 4: don't get the sense that David Bowie ever wanted to
- 2:03:51Speaker 4: revisit that.
- 2:03:51Speaker 8: Well, I mean, that's because he doesn't ever leave his
- 2:03:55Speaker 8: stuff alone. Like, it'll be two years later and he's like, eh,
- 2:03:58Speaker 8: I'm gonna do a live version and it's gonna be
- 2:03:59Speaker 8: totally different. How about that? Like, he just constantly comes
- 2:04:02Speaker 8: back to his stuff and either remixes it or reworks
- 2:04:06Speaker 8: it or covers it again and like, You never really
- 2:04:08Speaker 8: know with David Bowie.
- 2:04:10Speaker 4: In another segment of, in this episode of more collaborations
- 2:04:15Speaker 4: that we all were dying for, on the original Cat People,
- 2:04:19Speaker 4: on the album Let's Dance, the main guitar player was
- 2:04:22Speaker 4: Stevie Ray Vaughan. Interesting.
- 2:04:25Speaker 8: I've heard of that character.
- 2:04:28Speaker 4: As a guitar player and a David Bowie fan, I
- 2:04:30Speaker 4: don't understand this collaboration combination. I really don't understand.
- 2:04:34Speaker 8: Stevie Ray is an impressive guitar player. Not what you
- 2:04:37Speaker 8: think of when you think of Bowie. Not the same
- 2:04:40Speaker 8: type of thing at all.
- 2:04:42Speaker 4: Like all those little moody guitar parts in China Girl
- 2:04:46Speaker 4: where you're like, she said. Fucking Stevie Ray Vaughan.
- 2:04:51Speaker 17: Why?
- 2:04:51Speaker 4: You could have gotten anybody to do that.
- 2:04:54Speaker 8: And that's why you get Stevie.
- 2:04:57Speaker 4: The 80s were so weird.
- 2:04:59Speaker 8: I can't argue that. It brought us cat people.
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:05:06Speaker 8: Anything else to send people off with?
- 2:05:08Speaker 13: Can't forget Space Oddity, which was featured in Mr. Deeds with,
- 2:05:13Speaker 13: of course, Adam Sandler.
- 2:05:14Speaker 4: That hot banger.
- 2:05:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:05:16Speaker 4: I'm glad Mr. Deeds made an appearance in this episode.
- 2:05:19Speaker 8: Once again, the weird ways they cross over. That's why
- 2:05:23Speaker 8: I like this show. That's why I created this weird
- 2:05:26Speaker 8: offshoot show. So we can go, how did that end
- 2:05:29Speaker 8: up there? And then play it. All right, that is it.
- 2:05:34Speaker 8: I did want to say thank you to all you
- 2:05:36Speaker 8: out there for coming along on this weird trip through
- 2:05:39Speaker 8: Bowie's movie-related career. And I guess our way of saying,
- 2:05:45Speaker 8: rest in peace, Davy Jones. Oh, wait, you had to
- 2:05:49Speaker 8: change it.
- 2:05:49Speaker 4: Oh, was this the head episode by the monkeys the
- 2:05:52Speaker 4: whole time?
- 2:05:53Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't you.
- 2:05:53Speaker 8: Have we been talking about.
- 2:05:55Speaker 14: Oh, shit.
- 2:05:56Speaker 4: I didn't even get to talk about the part where
- 2:05:57Speaker 4: Frank Zappa rides up on the horse and goes, psst,
- 2:05:59Speaker 4: and then rides away.
- 2:06:02Speaker 8: Otherwise, I say we get out of here before we
- 2:06:05Speaker 8: get to our head episode, which we really need to do,
- 2:06:07Speaker 8: by the way.
- 2:06:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:06:09Speaker 8: So with that, I will remind you, Get a Life
- 2:06:11Speaker 8: will provide the soundtrack. Let's rock out with some cappy.
- 2:06:15Speaker 1: Save these eyes so grim I can stare for a
- 2:06:26Speaker 1: thousand years Colder than the moon It's been so long
- 2:06:45Speaker 1: And I've been putting out a fire.
- 2:06:52Speaker 31: With gasoline She's these eyes so red.
- 2:07:05Speaker 11: Red like Joan of Merlin grind Those who feel me
- 2:07:11Speaker 11: near Pull the blinds and change their minds.
- 2:07:19Speaker 7: It's been so long.
- 2:07:25Speaker 4: Still this fall is the night.
- 2:07:29Speaker 11: A blank echo.
- 2:07:30Speaker 7: A heartbeat.
- 2:07:33Speaker 4: Just be still with me.
- 2:07:36Speaker 11: You wouldn't believe what I've been through.
- 2:07:40Speaker 7: You've been so long.
- 2:07:44Speaker 11: Well, it's.
- 2:07:48Speaker 7: Been so long.
- 2:07:49Speaker 11: And I've been putting.
- 2:07:55Speaker 7: Out the fire with gasoline. Putting out the fire with gasoline.
- 2:07:52Speaker 7: See these tears so blue.
- 2:08:17Speaker 1: An ageless heart that can never mend His tears can
- 2:08:23Speaker 1: never dry A judgment night can never bend.
- 2:08:29Speaker 11: See these eyes so green I can stare for a
- 2:08:35Speaker 11: thousand years Just be still with.
- 2:08:38Speaker 7: Me You wouldn't believe what I've been through You've been.
- 2:08:43Speaker 11: So wrong Well, it's been so long.
- 2:08:51Speaker 3: I've been putting out the fire with gasoline. Putting out
- 2:08:57Speaker 3: the fire with gasoline.
- 2:09:00Speaker 7: It's been so long. It's been so long. Well, it's
- 2:09:10Speaker 7: been so long.
- 2:09:41Speaker 7: .
- 2:09:51Speaker 12: Howard McNair played him.
- 2:09:53Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:09:54Speaker 8: Ah, thank God. We figured none of this out.
- 2:09:59Speaker 4: What we figured out is there's yet another old guy
- 2:10:02Speaker 4: on the Andy Griffith show.
- 2:10:03Speaker 8: We've answered this question and yet figured out nothing in
- 2:10:06Speaker 8: the grand scheme of things.
- 2:10:08Speaker 4: How many other, if we take a different avenue, how
- 2:10:10Speaker 4: many steps would it take to link David Bowie to
- 2:10:12Speaker 4: Andy Griffith?
- 2:10:14Speaker 12: One, and that's Harry Dean Stanton.
- 2:10:15Speaker 4: Son of a bitch.
- 2:10:17Speaker 2: Good job.
- 2:10:18Speaker 12: It's what I'm here for. Literally what I'm here for.
- 2:10:20Speaker 8: How many licks to the candy center of a Tootsie Roll?
- 2:10:26Speaker 4: Can you map that out for me? Because you know
- 2:10:28Speaker 4: this better than I do.
- 2:10:29Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:10:30Speaker 8: What do you... What is.
- 2:10:31Speaker 4: Where's... Was he really?
- 2:10:35Speaker 12: Yeah, and he was in Twin Peaks Firewalk with me
- 2:10:37Speaker 12: with David Bowie.
- 2:10:38Speaker 4: I didn't know he was on the Andy Griffith show.
- 2:10:40Speaker 13: Yeah, the game's less fun when there's only one step.
- 2:10:42Speaker 12: When it's only Harry Dean Stanton, always.
- 2:10:44Speaker 4: Can you make that a long path and take Harry
- 2:10:47Speaker 4: Dean Stanton out of it?
- 2:10:49Speaker 12: Yeah, actually, I can. Hang on, give me a second.
- 2:10:53Speaker 8: Wait, who are we connecting now?
- 2:10:55Speaker 4: David Bowie to Andy Griffith.
- 2:10:57Speaker 7: All right.
- 2:10:57Speaker 4: Taking Harry Dean Stanton out and not using Sterling Holloway
- 2:11:01Speaker 4: or whatever his name is.
- 2:11:02Speaker 12: I feel like there should be actually a lot of
- 2:11:04Speaker 12: ways to do this.
- 2:11:05Speaker 4: Yeah, there probably should.
- 2:11:06Speaker 8: I didn't watch enough Matlock, I don't know.
- 2:11:10Speaker 12: Did you watch enough Happy Days, though?
- 2:11:14Speaker 7: I feel like it.
- 2:11:15Speaker 4: Oh, you know, the obvious.
- 2:11:17Speaker 8: I mean, I really feel like I watched good enough.
- 2:11:21Speaker 11: Oh, I got it.
- 2:11:22Speaker 7: I got it.
- 2:11:22Speaker 21: We're right.
- 2:11:23Speaker 12: That's what I'm saying.
- 2:11:24Speaker 8: Okay, yeah.
- 2:11:25Speaker 12: Andy Griffith and Jack Nicholson. Jack Nicholson was on an
- 2:11:28Speaker 12: episode of Andy Griffith. Then Jack Nicholson and Dennis Hopper, obviously.
- 2:11:33Speaker 12: And then you can take Dennis Hopper, David Lynch, David Lynch,
- 2:11:36Speaker 12: David Bowie.
- 2:11:37Speaker 4: And I'm sure David Bowie probably fell out of a
- 2:11:40Speaker 4: trunk onto the set of Easy Rider at some point.
- 2:11:44Speaker 4: Because it was just that kind of thing going on.
- 2:11:47Speaker 4: All right, so what are we doing? What are we
- 2:11:49Speaker 4: talking about? This is the David Lee Roth, Lauryn Hill podcast, right?
- 2:11:55Speaker 8: We're starting back up again.
- 2:11:56Speaker 4: Talking about The X Factor, the best Lauryn Hill song.
- 2:11:59Speaker 8: Your favorite show, The X Factor? I think.
- 2:12:07Speaker 7: So. All right. He's gone!
- 2:12:10Speaker 4: He's gone! Albert, call the front desk! I've got the
- 2:12:13Speaker 4: front desk now. He was never here.
