  SPEAKER_01: It's like a boom box.
• 12:23
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 12:23
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_01: So I want a I want like a like a CD, what did they call those?
• 12:28
  SPEAKER_01: CD Walkman, I guess?
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_07: Uh yeah, it was just basically just like a CD player, but no speakers.
• 12:33
  SPEAKER_07: It would just, you know, put the CD in.
• 12:35
  SPEAKER_01: You put your headphones on.
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_01: So I want something like that, but that has Bluetooth so that my car can connect to it and I can just slap in my mixed CD.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_01: I know that makes me sound really old, but that's you know, that's fine.
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_07: No, it would sound really old if you were like, I'd like to find an eight-track player.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_01: Well, um so it's either that.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_01: It's either find that CD player or it's um uh trade in my car and get an older older vehicle.
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_07: I'd like to turn this car in for something made in uh 2000.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I'll tell you what, I looked up my um uh trade-in value of my car now because we paid a lot of money for it.
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_01: Um it's a it's the first new car, quote unquote new car that we've ever bought.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_01: And bec we bought that because A Moose destroyed the other one.
• 13:25
  SPEAKER_01: Well, a moose destroyed the other one, yes.
• 13:27
  SPEAKER_01: But and I did get I was there.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_01: I did get, you know, uh a good chunk of insurance money to buy a new car.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_01: Correct.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_01: Um but um when we were shopping for vehicles, I think we've talked about this, the price of a uh vehicle that was, I don't know, three years old, four years old, maybe even six years old was two thousand dollars less than a new vehicle.
• 13:55
  SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
• 13:56
  SPEAKER_01: The used vehicle market, I mean, was just ridiculous at the at the time that we were looking.
• 14:00
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 14:01
  SPEAKER_01: And it didn't make any sense to buy a car that was six years old when you could spend another couple thousand dollars and get a brand new car.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_01: So that's what we did.
• 14:10
  SPEAKER_01: And we got a hybrid, and so far um have not had any trouble with it.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_01: But I have read about some issues, especially with salt, uh the salt on the ground and the batteries, because the batteries in those things, the um the EV, I guess, uh are like twenty grand.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_07: Oh, yeah, they're super expensive.
• 14:35
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_07: So I mean, they gotta pay like African kids like two cents a day to dig that stuff out, man.
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_07: I mean, come on.
• 14:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 14:43
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, you joke, but I'm not joking, I'm being dead serious.
• 14:47
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, you know?
• 14:48
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 14:48
  SPEAKER_01: So so I I said this to my wife, and m my wife who's pretty frugal, she actually said, Yeah, we'll need to get rid of that sooner than we usually do.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_09: Wow.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_01: It's like it's it's not one of the ones we're gonna drive into the ground, you know, like just drive it till it's uh till it dies.
• 15:05
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:06
  SPEAKER_01: Because if the battery does go, You might as well just throw it away.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_07: Right.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_07: Really?
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_07: I mean, seriously.
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_07: I mean, you know, that's why I'm totally against electric vehicles because it's all battery.
• 15:19
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:20
  SPEAKER_07: And it's so stupidly expensive to run.
• 15:24
  SPEAKER_07: I mean, it's just like, what the frig?
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_07: You know?
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_01: This is a hybrid and it's not a plug-in hybrid, so it's it it's doing okay so far.
• 15:31
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_01: Um but um and it's got twenty-six thousand miles on it.
• 15:39
  SPEAKER_01: And I've had it a year.
• 15:41
  SPEAKER_10: That's not bad.
• 15:42
  SPEAKER_01: A little over a year, I should say.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_01: And so I looked in the trade-in value, just for giggles.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_01: And the trade-in value is about uh twenty-five.
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_01: Twenty-four, twenty-five for that vehicle.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_01: So it's it's about half.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_01: About half.
• 16:02
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 16:02
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's about half.
• 16:04
  SPEAKER_01: Um so I don't know what we're gonna do or when we're gonna do it, but we're gonna have to and but see the next vehicle I want to get has to have to be player.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_08: Wow.
• 16:15
  SPEAKER_08: Naturally.
• 16:16
  SPEAKER_08: I mean, come on.
• 16:17
  SPEAKER_01: Why don't they put them in cars anymore?
• 16:19
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, yes, people stream all the time now, but you why not have that option too?
• 16:26
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 16:26
  SPEAKER_01: I bet you you could.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_01: I bet you can.
• 16:28
  SPEAKER_07: I bet you you just have to look for it.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_01: And I bet I I bet if you uh if you I bet if you really if you were really adamant about it, they would find you one just to make the sale.
• 16:39
  SPEAKER_01: Uh yeah, you're probably right.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_01: You know, so you're probably right.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_01: And I want a truck next time, I think.

• 17:23
  SPEAKER_01: The gas, you know, that's one of the reasons we we never really got a truck, is because the gas is just awful.

  SPEAKER_01: Yes, that's true.
• 32:18
  SPEAKER_01: You know, blues music kind of came first.
• 32:20
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 32:21
  SPEAKER_01: Country music was built after that.
• 32:24
  SPEAKER_07: But it was kind of a mix between uh blues and like stuff from like uh Africa.

• 37:58
  SPEAKER_07: Right.

  SPEAKER_07: That's all it is.

  SPEAKER_03: Nothing great.
• 40:31
  SPEAKER_01: It says all proceeds from this version will go directly to wildfire victims.
• 40:46
  SPEAKER_01: Let's see, the thing is, do you think people are gonna actually gonna buy this?
• 40:50
  SPEAKER_01: They they a lot of people will buy it just to support fire victims, but do people buy singles?
• 40:58
  SPEAKER_01: Did they download singles?
• 41:00
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 41:00
  SPEAKER_01: Do they just listen to them on streaming?

  SPEAKER_07: Yeah, exactly.
• 41:13
  SPEAKER_01: That's Phil Collin, he's doing that with his guitar.
• 41:16
  SPEAKER_07: Pretty impressive.
• 41:19
  SPEAKER_07: Like uh, what's his face in the white snake video playing the guitar with the uh with the bow?
• 41:23
  SPEAKER_07: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 41:24

  SPEAKER_01: Even the strings were were pretty true to the original.
• 41:34
  SPEAKER_01: Uh so that was pretty cool.
• 41:36
  SPEAKER_01: And I guess uh you can let's see, does it say where you can I would imagine you can get it on their website, defleppard.com.
• 41:43
  SPEAKER_01: I'm sure, yeah.
• 41:44
  SPEAKER_01: I'm assuming.
• 41:45
  SPEAKER_01: Um The other one kind of came out of nowhere.
• 41:49
  SPEAKER_01: Um it's a uh uh contribution or a collaboration, I should say, between the Red Rocker, Sammy Hagar, and Joe Bonnamasa.
• 41:57
  SPEAKER_01: Joe.
• 41:59
  SPEAKER_01: So actually it was also with uh Kevin Shirley, who's the producer, Joe Bonamasa's producer.
• 42:06
  SPEAKER_01: So he said, Joe said, Sammy sent us this very rough idea of a blues song.
• 42:11
  SPEAKER_01: Or this is I'm sorry, this is Kevin Shirley, while Joe and I were in the studio in Greece and we crafted a raw, edgy blues version to go with it.
• 42:19
  SPEAKER_01: Uh at times it carries a haunting energy, and at others it evokes the spirit of the New Orleans French quarter.
• 42:25
  SPEAKER_01: Joe was in a particularly gritty mood and played the entire track on an ovation acoustic guitar plugged into an overdriven amplifier, producing a chaotic, heavy, and almost eerie sound.
• 42:35
  SPEAKER_01: We wanted to create a different kind of blues feel to complement the lyrics, and we're thrilled with how well it turned out.
• 42:43
  SPEAKER_01: Hagar said uh this holy S, the thing came out good.
• 42:47
  SPEAKER_01: The track is a monster.
• 42:49
  SPEAKER_01: Um We'll see, Sammy.
• 42:52
  SPEAKER_01: We'll see.
• 42:53
  SPEAKER_01: It's okay.
• 42:55
  SPEAKER_01: I've had I have heard this one, and I was not bowled over with it.
• 42:59
  SPEAKER_01: Fortune Teller Blues is what it's called.
• 44:49
  SPEAKER_01: I mean it's it sounds like it's another Joe Bottomaza.
• 44:52
  SPEAKER_07: It sounds like that's what I was just gonna say.
• 44:53
  SPEAKER_07: It's a it's a Joe Bottomaza song sung by Tim Air.
• 44:56
  SPEAKER_07: That's pretty much what it is.
• 45:00
  SPEAKER_01: Who at 76 years old sounds pretty damn good.
• 45:03
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, it still sounds great.
• 45:04
  SPEAKER_07: Amazing.

  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so I don't I don't know.

• 51:45
  SPEAKER_07: Steve.
• 51:47
  SPEAKER_07: Sorry, Blanchard children.
• 51:50
  SPEAKER_07: Alright.
• 51:52
  SPEAKER_07: This week's song is There's a Place from the Please Please Me album.
• 51:57
  SPEAKER_07: Uh just as misery indicated the feelings of isolation and rejection, which would go which would become a major preoccupation in John's songs.
• 52:06
  SPEAKER_07: So There's a Place introduced what was to become a recurring theme of finding comfort in his thoughts, dreams, and memories.
• 52:14
  SPEAKER_07: In There's a Place, John deals with his life's sorrow by retreating into the safety of his inner thoughts and in a more sophisticated way.
• 52:21
  SPEAKER_07: This is what would characterize later songs such as Strawberry Fields Forever, Girl, In My Life, Rain, I'm Only Sleeping, Tomorrow Never Knows, and so many others.
• 52:30
  SPEAKER_07: The usual Lennon thing, he would comment with reference to There's a Place.
• 52:35
  SPEAKER_07: It's all in your mind.
• 52:38
  SPEAKER_07: He was a combination of introversion and extroversion, says Thelma.
• 52:42
  SPEAKER_09: Whoa! That's so sorry.
• 52:43
  SPEAKER_07: That's really loud.
• 52:44
  SPEAKER_07: That's so sorry.
• 52:50
  SPEAKER_07: Go ahead.
• 52:51
  SPEAKER_07: He was a combination of introversion and extroversion, says Thelma McGow, who as Thelma Pickles dated John while they were both at Liverpool School of Art.
• 53:00
  SPEAKER_07: Quote, he appeared very extrovert and yet was all front.
• 53:04
  SPEAKER_07: He was actually very deep, but he'd keep that pretty well hidden until you were on the until you were on your own with him, unquote.
• 53:13
  SPEAKER_07: Although John spoke as though the song was entirely his, Paul has since claimed that the original idea for it came to front came from him.
• 53:21
  SPEAKER_07: The title derived from the West Side Story song, There's a Place for Us, which he had a song too.
• 53:28
  SPEAKER_07: Which he had in his Fourthland Road record collection.
• 53:33
  SPEAKER_07: That must be where he lived.
• 53:36
  SPEAKER_07: Musically, John admitted that There's a Place was his attempt at a sort of Motown Black thing, referring to the hot news sound emerging emerging from Detroit on Barry Gordy's fledging fledgling independent label.
• 53:50
  SPEAKER_07: Motown hits were mostly written by production line writers and performed by groups trained in the label's own school.
• 53:56
  SPEAKER_07: It was dance music driven by inventive bass lines, gospel style splashes of tambourine and vocal harmonies.
• 54:04
  SPEAKER_07: AKA The Funk Brothers.
• 54:07
  SPEAKER_07: The Beatles were to play a crucial role in popularizing the label initially by recording Motown songs such as Please Mr.
• 54:15
  SPEAKER_07: Postman, You've Really Got a Hold on Me, and Money, and later by dropping the names of new Motown artists and records in interviews.
• 54:23
  SPEAKER_07: In 1964, Barry Gordy said, quote, it helped when we had several songs of ours recorded by the Beatles.
• 54:29
  SPEAKER_07: I met them and found out that they were great fans of Motown and had been studying Motown music, and they went on to become some of the greatest songwriters in history.
• 54:38
  SPEAKER_07: We were absolutely delighted.
• 54:40
  SPEAKER_07: Unquote.
• 54:40
  SPEAKER_07: Of course you would be.
• 54:41
  SPEAKER_07: Of course you would be, right?
• 54:42
  SPEAKER_07: Who wouldn't be?
• 54:43
  SPEAKER_07: Exactly, man.
• 54:45
  SPEAKER_01: I love that song.
• 54:46
  SPEAKER_01: It's a great song.
• 54:46
  SPEAKER_01: And that uh that song from West Side Story, There's a Place for Us.
• 54:49
  SPEAKER_01: Great song.
• 54:49
  SPEAKER_01: Have you ever heard that song?
• 54:50
  SPEAKER_07: I've m I've never seen West Side Story.
• 54:53
  SPEAKER_07: I don't know any of this.
• 54:54
  SPEAKER_01: I've never seen West Side's Story either, but I know that song.
• 54:56
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 54:56
  SPEAKER_01: Because I think, if I'm not mistaken, Phil Collins covered it.
• 55:01
  SPEAKER_01: Really?
• 55:02
  SPEAKER_01: Let me let me follow that.
• 55:03
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, here we go.
• 55:04
  SPEAKER_01: That rabbit hole.
• 55:05
  SPEAKER_01: Where's going down this rabbit hole?
• 55:07
  SPEAKER_01: Oh look! There's Phil Collins.
• 55:09

  SPEAKER_01: There you go.
• 55:19
  SPEAKER_09: Maybe maybe I'm not.
• 55:20
  SPEAKER_09: Maybe I'm not.

  SPEAKER_01: Let's see if this is the same.
• 55:27
  SPEAKER_01: That's a commercial.
• 55:28
  SPEAKER_01: Let's see if this is the same song.
• 55:31
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe a uh completely different song.
• 55:33
  SPEAKER_07: Is that Renee Zellwagger one?
• 55:35
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, it's a new Bridget Jones movie.
• 55:37
  SPEAKER_07: What?
• 55:38
  SPEAKER_07: Again?
• 55:38
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.

• 55:50
  SPEAKER_01: Hold on.
• 56:13
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 56:14
  SPEAKER_01: I don't think it's the same song.
• 56:25
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's not the same song.
• 56:27
  SPEAKER_01: Let's do this one.
• 56:32
  SPEAKER_01: Uh see.
• 56:33
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's what he did.
• 56:35
  SPEAKER_09: No!
• 56:37
  SPEAKER_01: They just called it something different.
• 56:42
  SPEAKER_01: He did do a cover of this.
• 56:48
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, the song is not called There's a Place for Us.
• 56:51
  SPEAKER_01: It's called Somewhere.
• 56:57
  SPEAKER_01: So this is a cover from the West of a West Side Story song.
• 57:03
  SPEAKER_07: But it's not It's Phil Call.
• 57:05
  SPEAKER_01: It's still called.
• 57:06
  SPEAKER_07: No, but it's not the song?
• 57:07
  SPEAKER_07: Or I'm very confused.
• 57:09
  SPEAKER_07: Why did he call it something different then?
• 57:21
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe he was confused.
• 57:30
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe it's called There's a Place for us in in the musical.
• 57:35
  SPEAKER_01: And when they covered it, they changed the name of it to somewhere.
• 57:38
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 57:40
  SPEAKER_01: It makes no sense.
• 57:53
  SPEAKER_07: Um that's what we do here.

  SPEAKER_01: Oh probably.
• 58:25
  SPEAKER_01: We may have done this artist recently too, but yeah, I don't care anymore.
• 58:28
  SPEAKER_01: Um so let the guessing begin.
• 58:32
  SPEAKER_07: Is it a man?
• 58:33
  SPEAKER_07: No.
• 58:34
  SPEAKER_07: Solo?
• 58:35
  SPEAKER_07: Yes.
• 58:37
  SPEAKER_07: Man, yes.

  SPEAKER_07: Solomon.
• 58:45
  SPEAKER_07: Solomon the Grey.

  SPEAKER_01: Alright, so here's what I'm gonna do.
• 59:37
  SPEAKER_01: I'm just gonna get a different Brian Adams album.
• 59:40
  SPEAKER_01: I won't switch the artist, I'll just switch the album.
• 59:43
  SPEAKER_09: So this one is I mean, he's always been popular, right?
• 59:58
  SPEAKER_01: But I don't think this one was a huge commercial.
• 1:00:01
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, I don't know.
• 1:00:02
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 1:00:03
  SPEAKER_01: This is uh an album called On a Day Like Today.
• 1:00:06
  SPEAKER_07: I have no idea what that one is.
• 1:00:08
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, so this has some of my favorite Brian Adams songs on it, believe it or not.
• 1:00:14
  SPEAKER_01: Um and I don't know that unless you're a Brian Adams fan, like a big Brian Adams fan.
• 1:00:20
  SPEAKER_07: This is the fourth time we've done Brian Adams.
• 1:00:22
  SPEAKER_07: Is it really?
• 1:00:24
  SPEAKER_07: Just in case you were wondering.
• 1:00:26
  SPEAKER_07: If you're giving me stragg at home.
• 1:00:27
  SPEAKER_07: Maybe we've already done this album too, then.
• 1:00:29
  SPEAKER_07: We probably remember, I don't remember talking about this album because I've never heard of this album.
• 1:00:33
  SPEAKER_01: Uh I don't know.
• 1:00:34
  SPEAKER_01: This one has a duet with uh one of the Spice Girls.
• 1:00:37
  SPEAKER_01: I definitely don't know about that.
• 1:00:39
  SPEAKER_07: No?
• 1:00:39
  SPEAKER_07: Why why why would you do that to yourself?
• 1:00:42
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 1:00:42
  SPEAKER_01: Why not?
• 1:00:43
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so Brian Adams lyrically is not, you know, one of the most fantastic writers.
• 1:00:55
  SPEAKER_01: I mean I mean it's it's good stuff.
• 1:00:57
  SPEAKER_01: I mean it's it's slice of life stuff, it's you know, but it's a lot of its cliche.
• 1:01:02
  SPEAKER_10: Oh yeah.
• 1:01:02
  SPEAKER_01: But boy the guy knows how to write a hook.
• 1:01:05
  SPEAKER_01: You know, and a catchy tune.
• 1:01:07
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 1:01:08
  SPEAKER_01: Um and so this this album on a day like today, let's see what this came out.
• 1:01:12
  SPEAKER_01: This came out in 1998.
• 1:01:15
  SPEAKER_01: Yep, 1998.
• 1:01:18
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and this has two of my favorite Brian Adams songs.
• 1:01:24
  SPEAKER_01: Um and this is one of them.
• 1:01:31
  SPEAKER_04: Clue number one was when you knocked on my door.
• 1:01:36
  SPEAKER_04: Clue number two was the look that you wore, and that's when I knew it was a pretty good sign.
• 1:01:44
  SPEAKER_04: Something was wrong up on cloud number nine.
• 1:01:50
  SPEAKER_04: Well, come down.
• 1:02:23
  SPEAKER_01: Sorry, that's pop genius.
• 1:02:25
  SPEAKER_01: The melody it is, but it sounds like something else.
• 1:02:28
  SPEAKER_01: You mean something else sounds like this?
• 1:02:31
  SPEAKER_01: No, this sounds like something else.
• 1:02:34
  SPEAKER_01: No, what I'm saying is I think this the song that you're thinking of probably came after this.
• 1:02:41
  SPEAKER_07: Oh, probably, but it it definitely sounds like another song.
• 1:02:46
  SPEAKER_01: Just the chord changes and the melody.
• 1:02:51
  SPEAKER_01: It's such a hook.
• 1:02:54
  SPEAKER_01: Right?
• 1:02:55
  SPEAKER_07: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 1:02:56
  SPEAKER_07: No, there's no denying the hook, that's for sure.
• 1:02:59
  SPEAKER_07: I don't like the way he's singing it though.
• 1:03:01
  SPEAKER_01: Lower, you mean?
• 1:03:03
  SPEAKER_07: That sounds like he's like trying not to be Brian Adams.
• 1:03:08
  SPEAKER_01: Well, it was 998, so and he was taking a lot of flack still for everything I do, I do it for you.
• 1:03:13
  SPEAKER_07: Well, he should, because it was terrible.
• 1:03:16
  SPEAKER_07: Well, you know, it was like, yes, we had to suffer through the movie and the song.
• 1:03:22
  SPEAKER_07: We I mean, we went to war just to get away from that movie and the song.
• 1:03:27
  SPEAKER_01: You know, you know what's sad?
• 1:03:29
  SPEAKER_00: What I really like that movie.
• 1:03:31
  SPEAKER_07: I I did not.
• 1:03:32
  SPEAKER_07: I watched it once and that was enough.
• 1:03:34
  SPEAKER_07: I was like, Kevin Costner should never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever try to be English.
• 1:03:41
  SPEAKER_07: Well, he didn't.
• 1:03:42
  SPEAKER_07: I know.
• 1:03:44
  SPEAKER_07: That's the thing.
• 1:03:45
  SPEAKER_07: I mean, I mean, even when you get made fun of in a Mel Brooks movie, right?
• 1:03:51
  SPEAKER_07: You know, that's that's the signal to stop.
• 1:03:55
  SPEAKER_07: Stop, Kevin, stop.
• 1:03:57
  SPEAKER_07: Um but then he went and made the bodyguard, and the bodyguard was great.
• 1:04:01
  SPEAKER_07: Yeah, it was so.
• 1:04:02
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it was.
• 1:04:02
  SPEAKER_01: Alright, so my other uh one of my other favorite Brian Adams songs is this one, and it is the duet with the Mel B.
• 1:04:10
  SPEAKER_01: No, Mel Scary Spice?
• 1:04:12
  SPEAKER_01: Mel C.
• 1:04:13
  SPEAKER_01: Mel the Sporty Spice.
• 1:04:15
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, Sporty Spice.
• 1:04:16
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, and this is called When You're Gone.
• 1:04:18
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 1:04:21
  SPEAKER_01: Just as a songwriter, I love the melodies.
• 1:04:25
  SPEAKER_04: I've been wandering around the house all night.
• 1:05:24
  SPEAKER_00: But that sounds more like Brian Adams.
• 1:05:26
  SPEAKER_00: I think.
• 1:05:27
  SPEAKER_07: But it he still sounds like he's trying to not sing like Brian Adams to me.
• 1:05:32
  SPEAKER_07: I don't know why.
• 1:05:34
  SPEAKER_01: So so explain to me what what I don't know, I can't explain it to you.
• 1:05:38
  SPEAKER_07: It's like Brian Adams trying not to be Brian Adams by just Brian Adams.
• 1:05:41
  SPEAKER_07: Is he just singing it sounds like he's even more nasally than usual?
• 1:05:44
  SPEAKER_07: In a lower register?
• 1:05:46
  SPEAKER_07: No, it's just like it's like I don't know, he's trying to parade it himself or something, maybe he's trying to like weird owl himself.
• 1:05:54
  SPEAKER_00: Here's a here's another great one off this album that I like.
• 1:05:56
  SPEAKER_00: This is called Fearless.
• 1:06:07
  SPEAKER_00: Again, I'm a sucker for catchy, like like pop hooks.
• 1:06:11
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 1:06:20
  SPEAKER_07: Okay, this sounds more like Brian Adams to me.
• 1:06:23
  SPEAKER_04: What you gonna do?
• 1:06:32
  SPEAKER_04: What do you have to hell you feel?
• 1:06:38
  SPEAKER_07: What's with all the swerving, Brian?
• 1:06:41
  SPEAKER_07: That's the second song in a row, dude.
• 1:06:52
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 1:06:54
  SPEAKER_01: Lyrically it's very cliche.
• 1:06:56
  SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, but uh it's a great hook.
• 1:06:58
  SPEAKER_01: It is a great hook.
• 1:06:58
  SPEAKER_07: But this this this actually sounds like Brian Adams trying to sound like himself to me.
• 1:07:03
  SPEAKER_07: I guess I can I can hear that.
• 1:07:04
  SPEAKER_07: I can hear what you're talking about.
• 1:07:05
  SPEAKER_07: Yeah, I I don't know what the other two were.
• 1:07:07
  SPEAKER_07: I don't know what he was doing, but it was just it just didn't sound it didn't sound like Brian Adams.
• 1:07:12
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 1:07:15
  SPEAKER_00: Uh those are my three favorite of this album.
• 1:07:17
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, there's other songs that are that are good too.
• 1:07:19
