WEBVTT 00:00:11.070 --> 00:00:13.949 Welcome to My Weekly Mixtape, a podcast that 00:00:13.949 --> 00:00:16.949 takes the classic mixtape approach to building 00:00:16.949 --> 00:00:19.530 a modern playlist. I'm your host, Brian Colburn. 00:00:19.690 --> 00:00:22.670 Joining me once again as guest curator, once 00:00:22.670 --> 00:00:26.250 again as once again from five minutes ago, is 00:00:26.250 --> 00:00:29.670 my former Toon Styles co -host, J Sweet J. Welcome 00:00:29.670 --> 00:00:31.489 back, even though it feels like I just talked 00:00:31.489 --> 00:00:33.899 to you. It's good to be back, Brian. Yeah, it's 00:00:33.899 --> 00:00:36.539 a week later in real time, but in Jay and my 00:00:36.539 --> 00:00:38.579 universe, it's only been five minutes. It's kind 00:00:38.579 --> 00:00:40.399 of like Marvel -esque, but a little bit different. 00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:43.740 So yeah, really no small talk to have here, because 00:00:43.740 --> 00:00:46.420 if you listened last week to our fictional bands 00:00:46.420 --> 00:00:49.380 episode, you already know what's happening here. 00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:52.500 But however, if you haven't, let me first give 00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:55.740 you a warning that this is the first time in 00:00:55.740 --> 00:00:58.060 my weekly mixtape history that we are doing a 00:00:58.060 --> 00:01:02.439 volume two back to back with a volume one. Unless 00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:06.180 you take into consideration the 100th episode 00:01:06.180 --> 00:01:08.680 celebration that ran for three episodes, which 00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:11.200 was not actually an episode. It was more of a 00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:14.099 compilation thing, but I digress. So if you're 00:01:14.099 --> 00:01:17.140 listening to this episode now and you haven't 00:01:17.140 --> 00:01:20.219 heard volume one, you might be a little confused 00:01:20.219 --> 00:01:22.099 because we're going to be referencing volume 00:01:22.099 --> 00:01:24.859 one at some points here, I'm guessing, because 00:01:24.859 --> 00:01:28.019 it's kind of a part two. So obviously some bands 00:01:28.019 --> 00:01:30.159 we're going to be talking about tonight. We didn't 00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:33.379 talk about volume one and vice versa. So if you 00:01:33.379 --> 00:01:37.079 want the full fictional band experience, pause 00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:39.519 this episode now and go back to last week's and 00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:43.400 make sure you finish volume one first. But Jay, 00:01:43.540 --> 00:01:47.400 I've got 40 other songs to go here. What's your 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:50.519 bank looking like? Yeah, about the same. I narrowed 00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:52.980 it down to about 35, 40 more that we could go 00:01:52.980 --> 00:01:55.299 with. And we have to whittle that down to 20. 00:01:55.819 --> 00:01:58.879 So tonight, as I mentioned. Jay and I will be 00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:01.659 curating the Ultimate Fictional Bands Mixtape 00:02:01.659 --> 00:02:04.640 Volume 2, and we're going to continue to use 00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.819 that old cassette deck approach. Jay, as my special 00:02:07.819 --> 00:02:10.099 guest, will begin side A with his first song 00:02:10.099 --> 00:02:12.379 choice, and then I'll add a song that I feel 00:02:12.379 --> 00:02:14.800 best follows up that choice. We'll then flip 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.360 -flop choosing songs until we've mapped out 10 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.520 songs for side A. We'll then give our mixtape 00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:23.080 a proverbial flip, and we'll map out side B. 00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.400 Only this time, I'll kick things off with Jay 00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.300 choosing second. Our overall goal for the episode 00:02:28.300 --> 00:02:31.000 is to craft the best fictional bands mixtape 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:34.599 possible through only 20 songs. At the end of 00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:36.280 the show, you can take our conversation to the 00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:39.699 next level by visiting the episode page at myweeklymixtape 00:02:39.699 --> 00:02:43.000 .com to give our final mixtape a listen via the 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:45.240 embedded playlist.

All right, 00:04:01.659 --> 00:04:04.520 Jay, you know this spiel. I'm pressing the record 00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:07.840 button. What do you got? For volume two, track 00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:11.419 one. We are starting off strong on volume two. 00:04:11.539 --> 00:04:14.719 It really occurred to me that it would have been 00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:18.879 an absolute sin to leave off the life of the 00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:22.139 dragon. And I am going with Steel Dragons, We 00:04:22.139 --> 00:04:25.699 All Die Young. Nice. We have talked about this 00:04:25.699 --> 00:04:28.740 song several times on this show. A hundred percent. 00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.839 This movie was another one of those semi -monumentary 00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:37.459 biopic kind of movies. originally supposed to 00:04:37.459 --> 00:04:41.100 be based loosely on the story of judas priest 00:04:41.100 --> 00:04:43.800 but judas priest kind of was like you know what 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:46.860 maybe we shouldn't let's not do that so they 00:04:46.860 --> 00:04:50.000 kind of created this fictitional band this wonderful 00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:53.959 tribute band steel dragon and it was voiced by 00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:57.480 i mean you kind of hinted in in volume one just 00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.240 about 10 minutes ago that we there were this 00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:03.879 is a super group You've got Zach Wilde, you've 00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:07.680 got Jason Bonham and Miljenko Metagevic from 00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:10.939 Steelheart, who wrote the song and had actually 00:05:10.939 --> 00:05:13.740 put that out as Steelheart before this movie 00:05:13.740 --> 00:05:16.790 was even a thought. And by the way, you're not 00:05:16.790 --> 00:05:18.850 giving the bass player any love here, so you 00:05:18.850 --> 00:05:20.709 can't forget Jeff Pilsen of Dokken. Of course, 00:05:20.709 --> 00:05:22.629 of course, Jeff Pilsen from Dokken. Gotta show 00:05:22.629 --> 00:05:24.889 the bass player some love, man. Jesus. Everybody 00:05:24.889 --> 00:05:28.350 forgets the bass player. Jeez. But it's such 00:05:28.350 --> 00:05:32.709 a great band, and the music is fantastic. And 00:05:32.709 --> 00:05:35.170 again, this is one of those groups where you 00:05:35.170 --> 00:05:37.370 talked about in Volume 1, I don't understand 00:05:37.370 --> 00:05:40.709 how a Stillwater, how these guys didn't have 00:05:40.709 --> 00:05:44.100 a full album. an actual super group recording 00:05:44.100 --> 00:05:46.879 career. So you would have had like steel dragon 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:49.199 and you, you would have had traveling Wilburys 00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:53.620 and Asia, right? The power station. I don't know. 00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.079 Just pulling things off top of my head. But those 00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:57.879 are the, those are the kinds of things that, 00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:01.899 you know, that this movie just nails down everything. 00:06:01.939 --> 00:06:05.540 That is the eighties anthemic stadium rock and 00:06:05.540 --> 00:06:08.160 roll. And for those of you that don't know the 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:10.680 movie that Jay's talking about, it's called Rockstar. 00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:12.439 Oh, I didn't mention that because, you know, 00:06:12.459 --> 00:06:17.819 yeah. And that features Marky Mark showing off 00:06:17.819 --> 00:06:20.259 his vocal prowess. Well, lip syncing prowess. 00:06:20.379 --> 00:06:22.939 But he does a great job in this movie. It's actually 00:06:22.939 --> 00:06:25.879 a fantastic movie. Jennifer Aniston. Yes. If 00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:29.569 you're a big fan of that 80s overindulgent. Rock 00:06:29.569 --> 00:06:31.689 scene. This really hits the nail on the head. 00:06:31.870 --> 00:06:34.310 And I mean, it's funny, Jay, you mentioned like, 00:06:34.389 --> 00:06:37.209 you know, how could Steel Dragon not be out and 00:06:37.209 --> 00:06:40.089 about doing, you know, bigger things in my mind. 00:06:40.110 --> 00:06:42.709 I take that a step further. And how the hell 00:06:42.709 --> 00:06:46.290 did Steelheart's original not get bigger? I understand 00:06:46.290 --> 00:06:48.350 that Steelheart had I know I'll never let you 00:06:48.350 --> 00:06:50.129 go was a big hit for the band. Their biggest. 00:06:50.250 --> 00:06:53.050 Yes. But after that, they still continue to put 00:06:53.050 --> 00:06:56.819 out great records. And I feel like. It's wrong 00:06:56.819 --> 00:06:59.139 that they quote unquote peaked at I'll never 00:06:59.139 --> 00:07:00.740 let you go because there's so much more than 00:07:00.740 --> 00:07:04.959 that. I think it was unfortunately just the timing 00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:07.459 of everything, because while their later stuff 00:07:07.459 --> 00:07:11.100 was like in the early 90s and grunge had kind 00:07:11.100 --> 00:07:13.579 of taken over and hair metal was kind of on the 00:07:13.579 --> 00:07:18.139 decline. But it's firehouse. It's alias, right? 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.100 It's that kind of, you know, power ballads were 00:07:21.100 --> 00:07:23.579 the thing. And I think that's when hair metal. 00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:27.040 kind of got a bad rap if you will you know grunge 00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:29.819 took over right in 91 and then power ballads 00:07:29.819 --> 00:07:32.339 were considered passe that's right and you know 00:07:32.339 --> 00:07:34.860 what i'm not gonna lie we're here in 2025 and 00:07:34.860 --> 00:07:38.139 i listen back to power ballads and i don't feel 00:07:38.139 --> 00:07:40.699 that they seem as dated maybe it's just me because 00:07:40.699 --> 00:07:44.259 i am dated from that era but some of them some 00:07:44.259 --> 00:07:46.319 of them some of them definitely feel dated don't 00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:48.540 get me wrong yeah some of them have that 80s 00:07:48.540 --> 00:07:51.389 sheen in that 80s production sound but We All 00:07:51.389 --> 00:07:54.449 Die Young, which came out in 2001 with the Rockstar 00:07:54.449 --> 00:07:57.769 movie, alludes to that 80s sound, but it definitely 00:07:57.769 --> 00:07:59.970 is a song that I can listen to now and still 00:07:59.970 --> 00:08:03.170 say it feels like a modern rock song. Well, that 00:08:03.170 --> 00:08:05.709 song, I think we've talked about this on previous 00:08:05.709 --> 00:08:08.350 episodes as well as TuneStyles. When Steelheart 00:08:08.350 --> 00:08:11.189 put out We All Die Young, it was a much different 00:08:11.189 --> 00:08:13.610 version than Steel Dragons. It's a little bit 00:08:13.610 --> 00:08:16.839 more mellow. It still has the same lyrics and 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:19.399 the same theme. And I've mentioned that he wrote 00:08:19.399 --> 00:08:22.779 that when his mother was sick. That was a whole 00:08:22.779 --> 00:08:25.819 different vibe from what you hear from the Zach 00:08:25.819 --> 00:08:29.639 Wilde charged guitars and Jeff's thumping bass 00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:35.200 there. I made it up. Thank you. Yes. But I mean, 00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:37.620 yeah. And just pounding on the drums with Jason 00:08:37.620 --> 00:08:41.659 Bonham behind him. And it's an incredible song 00:08:41.659 --> 00:08:44.419 to listen to. And the kind of monologue that 00:08:44.419 --> 00:08:48.279 he does in the intro of the song before the end. 00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:51.779 Right. Where he's mimicking basically Bobby Beers 00:08:51.779 --> 00:08:54.700 is original when he sees him live in concerts. 00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:57.220 Like he kind of says the whole thing about, you 00:08:57.220 --> 00:08:59.399 know, it's important for us to kind of continue 00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:02.200 moving forward because. And then the kid in the 00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:04.120 front row is like, we all die young. That's right. 00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:06.399 We all die young. And he realizes Mark Wahlberg 00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:09.659 realizes that there's more to life than this. 00:09:09.740 --> 00:09:12.480 Like I walked away from a pretty good life with 00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.700 Jennifer Aniston and then he goes and becomes 00:09:14.700 --> 00:09:19.000 the vert, uh, the vert pike, right? Colorful. 00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:20.820 One of my favorite songs on that soundtrack. 00:09:21.059 --> 00:09:24.500 No question about it. All right. Well, I'm going 00:09:24.500 --> 00:09:28.039 to write a wrong from volume one right away because 00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:32.200 I just could not find a spot in volume one to 00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:36.379 sneak this in. And I guarantee you that future 00:09:36.379 --> 00:09:39.460 Brian, when these episodes air, will have fielded 00:09:39.460 --> 00:09:42.779 emails over the fact that Harry Shearer, Christopher 00:09:42.779 --> 00:09:45.960 Guest, and Michael McKeon were not discussed 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:49.460 in volume one. And what the hell were we thinking? 00:09:49.980 --> 00:09:52.779 We got to make up for it. We got to go spinal 00:09:52.779 --> 00:09:55.759 tap. And I'm going to go big bottom. Nice. I 00:09:55.759 --> 00:09:59.240 mean, you can't have a fictional band episode 00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:02.460 and not talk about Spinal Tap. And I feel like 00:10:02.460 --> 00:10:05.019 we messed that up in volume one, even though 00:10:05.019 --> 00:10:08.100 volume one is awesome. I feel like that's going 00:10:08.100 --> 00:10:09.879 to be the thing that people dangle in front of 00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:13.159 me. Like, why the hell did you have Spinal Tap 00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:17.580 is kind of the impetus for what drove this episode. 00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:19.379 Like, I heard one of their songs come on. I'm 00:10:19.379 --> 00:10:21.740 going, oh, my God, these guys aren't even a real 00:10:21.740 --> 00:10:24.500 band. And Big Bottom is awesome. How the hell 00:10:24.500 --> 00:10:27.779 is this band not real? And I think a lot of times 00:10:27.779 --> 00:10:29.779 during volume one, we talked about like, these 00:10:29.779 --> 00:10:32.360 are really fantastic songs at the end of the 00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:34.960 day. We're not just calling out fictitious bands 00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:38.500 to say, well, this band is fictitious. So it 00:10:38.500 --> 00:10:40.860 makes the list maybe in Zach attack. I mean, 00:10:40.899 --> 00:10:43.259 right. You know, I think I'll be honest, Jay, 00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:45.340 you started off volume two, a lot stronger than 00:10:45.340 --> 00:10:47.639 you started off volume one. We all die young. 00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:51.649 Just, but. We All Die Young is a song that 25 00:10:51.649 --> 00:10:54.850 years later, I mean even longer from the original, 00:10:55.070 --> 00:10:59.049 still is incredible. And Spinal Tap's music is 00:10:59.049 --> 00:11:00.850 still incredible. And they're one of those ones 00:11:00.850 --> 00:11:04.009 that, like the Blues Brothers, they started as 00:11:04.009 --> 00:11:07.350 a fictitious band, but then technically they're 00:11:07.350 --> 00:11:10.149 still a fictitious band. But are they really? 00:11:10.450 --> 00:11:12.690 Because they put out Break Like the Wind, which 00:11:12.690 --> 00:11:15.789 even though there's some humor to it, it charted. 00:11:16.009 --> 00:11:18.860 Right. And they also put out back from the dead 00:11:18.860 --> 00:11:21.980 in 2009 and that charted. And now there's a sequel. 00:11:22.460 --> 00:11:26.039 Right. For this is spinal tap. Does it count? 00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:29.220 I think as a fictional band anymore, because 00:11:29.220 --> 00:11:31.460 they've kind of crossed over and transcended. 00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:34.759 They transcended fictional bands. This isn't 00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:37.120 like the lone Rangers in airheads where they 00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:40.620 just had the one song and the one movie. And 00:11:40.620 --> 00:11:43.500 then they continued on spinal tap kind of, are 00:11:43.500 --> 00:11:45.860 they really fictitious at this point? I don't 00:11:45.860 --> 00:11:48.120 know. And that's a, Rhetorical question I'm going 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:50.279 to ask all the listeners. Do you consider Spinal 00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:54.840 Tap to be a fictitious band or a actual band 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.440 in 2025? So if I'm not mistaken, Big Bottom was 00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:01.740 written sometime between their drummer spontaneously 00:12:01.740 --> 00:12:05.720 combusting and the Stonehenge incident while 00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:08.419 they were figuring out that their amps go to 00:12:08.419 --> 00:12:11.340 11. Spinal Tap is one of those bands, again, 00:12:11.500 --> 00:12:15.519 that just it's cemented in pop culture. It's 00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:18.940 been. rift on in all sorts of other shows that 00:12:18.940 --> 00:12:23.019 kind of spoof that type of, of music and that 00:12:23.019 --> 00:12:26.220 type of, of show that movie. And I'll be very 00:12:26.220 --> 00:12:30.360 curious in the sequel, if they're going to reference 00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:34.659 break like the wind and back from the dead as 00:12:34.659 --> 00:12:39.889 fictitional lore for the sequels. Because if 00:12:39.889 --> 00:12:43.309 that's the case, then it does make these albums 00:12:43.309 --> 00:12:47.429 part of the fictitious narrative and takes away 00:12:47.429 --> 00:12:50.629 any relevancy of them actually being Spinal Tap 00:12:50.629 --> 00:12:54.090 albums. And then I'll also throw out there that 00:12:54.090 --> 00:12:57.789 I'm going into the Spinal Tap sequel with a little 00:12:57.789 --> 00:13:01.809 bit of pause because there's been a lot of sequels 00:13:01.809 --> 00:13:04.899 that have come out over the last decade. That 00:13:04.899 --> 00:13:07.820 were 10 or 20 years in the making. Anchorman 00:13:07.820 --> 00:13:11.340 2. Dumb and Dumber, the sequel. Right. The one 00:13:11.340 --> 00:13:16.740 with Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. Zoolander 2. 00:13:16.980 --> 00:13:21.399 Coming to America, the sequel. Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice. 00:13:21.580 --> 00:13:26.039 I feel like a lot of these had high expectations 00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:29.259 that were impossible to meet. And Spinal Tap, 00:13:29.340 --> 00:13:32.220 I put in that same category. Yes. It's going 00:13:32.220 --> 00:13:34.539 to take a miracle for them to capture the lightning 00:13:34.539 --> 00:13:37.600 in a bottle that is 1984's This Is Spinal Tap. 00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:40.580 And I really want them to do it. I hope they 00:13:40.580 --> 00:13:42.960 do it. I hope it succeeds. And if there was any 00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:46.580 group of comedians that could make this happen, 00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:49.320 I feel like it is the members of Spinal Tap. 00:13:49.659 --> 00:13:53.039 You know, Rob Reiner, this movie was was genius. 00:13:53.179 --> 00:13:55.200 I think it was it was put together perfectly. 00:13:55.379 --> 00:13:57.919 They didn't play to the laugh, which was hilarious. 00:13:58.179 --> 00:14:01.360 The fact it was we talk about wet hot American 00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:05.500 summer. And I think that that movie played 100 00:14:05.500 --> 00:14:08.440 percent to the laugh. It got just ridiculous 00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:11.159 at the end. This is Spinal Tap didn't play to 00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.600 the laugh. They played it straight and it was 00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:17.720 just perfectly done. Well, Jay, we are back to 00:14:17.720 --> 00:14:19.720 you now for track three. Where do we go from 00:14:19.720 --> 00:14:23.120 here? Let's stay in this vein. I know we talked 00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.759 about Tenacious D. We talked about Jack Black. 00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:30.679 And I want to go to School of Rock with the School 00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:34.759 of Rock. That is a fantastic movie as well. That's 00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:36.379 a great cast. You've got Jack Black. You've got 00:14:36.379 --> 00:14:39.399 Sarah Silverman. You've got... A very young iCarly 00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:43.340 is in it, right? I mean, that movie is fantastic. 00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:45.700 It's so good that they spawned a Broadway musical. 00:14:45.980 --> 00:14:49.100 And of course, you had great star power in the 00:14:49.100 --> 00:14:52.559 movie too. And perfect marketing because School 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:54.940 of Rocks are everywhere. That's right. I've got 00:14:54.940 --> 00:14:56.840 one around the corner from the apartment. And 00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:59.259 we get a little extra Jack Black in the discussion 00:14:59.259 --> 00:15:01.419 because in volume one, we talked about Barry 00:15:01.419 --> 00:15:04.240 Jive in the Uptown Five. Let's get it on. But 00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:06.899 School of Rock is fantastic. It had that ACDC 00:15:06.899 --> 00:15:10.360 vibe to it. The kids are so talented in it. I 00:15:10.360 --> 00:15:12.220 actually read that they did a reunion recently 00:15:12.220 --> 00:15:16.940 and two of the kids from the movie are now married 00:15:16.940 --> 00:15:18.960 in real life. They stayed in touch all the years 00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:21.480 and now they're married. That's cool. Jack Black 00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:23.659 and all the kids still get together and they 00:15:23.659 --> 00:15:27.279 go out to dinner. They stayed close all these 00:15:27.279 --> 00:15:29.879 years, which I think is awesome. Fun movie, fun 00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:32.580 soundtrack. I've watched it with my kids. It 00:15:32.580 --> 00:15:36.379 still holds up 20 years later. But following 00:15:36.379 --> 00:15:40.860 up School of Rock is tough, but maybe not so 00:15:40.860 --> 00:15:44.519 much because this amazing person just popped 00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:48.179 into my head and we have to go there because 00:15:48.179 --> 00:15:51.360 we haven't talked about them yet. And that is 00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:55.019 the lovely Kay Hanley from Letters to Cleo. She 00:15:55.019 --> 00:15:57.500 wrote amazing music with Letters to Cleo, but 00:15:57.500 --> 00:16:02.000 also did music for the soundtracks to The Craft 00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:06.340 to 10 Things I Hate About You. She performed 00:16:06.340 --> 00:16:09.440 in Jesus Christ Superstar alongside of Gary Cherone 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:12.559 in Extreme. That's pretty cool. Back in the day, 00:16:12.620 --> 00:16:15.600 yep. She also wrote the music for the Disney 00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:18.440 cartoon Doc McStuffins. She wrote music for Star 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:22.419 Trek's Strange New Worlds Subspace Rhapsody episode. 00:16:23.230 --> 00:16:27.090 She was the guest on episode 44, the Ultimate 00:16:27.090 --> 00:16:29.990 Letters to Cleo playlist. And we talk about all 00:16:29.990 --> 00:16:33.830 of those things along with Josie and the Pussycats, 00:16:33.889 --> 00:16:37.570 Three Small Words. It's a little different musically 00:16:37.570 --> 00:16:40.490 from Steel Dragon, Spinal Tap, School of Rock, 00:16:40.529 --> 00:16:42.090 where you got that hard rock thing going. This 00:16:42.090 --> 00:16:45.389 brings it to a little bit more pop, but it's 00:16:45.389 --> 00:16:47.710 Josie and the Pussycats, man. You have to. They're 00:16:47.710 --> 00:16:51.779 like an iconic fictional band. Absolutely. I 00:16:51.779 --> 00:16:54.299 mean, again, we talked about in Volume 1, we 00:16:54.299 --> 00:16:56.679 talked about the Hanna -Barbera cartoons and 00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:58.519 Josie and the Pussycats was there. And I was 00:16:58.519 --> 00:17:00.799 trying to rack my brain out thinking, all right, 00:17:00.820 --> 00:17:03.259 come on, what was the song that they did? What 00:17:03.259 --> 00:17:05.000 were some of the songs that they did in the cartoon? 00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:07.920 And it took the movie, I think, to really to 00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:10.960 kind of cement that they had with Rachel Lee 00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:13.660 Cook and Tara Reid, Rosario Dawson. They made 00:17:13.660 --> 00:17:16.440 it very believable. And I'll tell you, we recently 00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:19.430 watched. Josie and the Pussycats, and it held 00:17:19.430 --> 00:17:22.390 up. It's still a good movie. It's fun. It's a 00:17:22.390 --> 00:17:25.230 fun family movie. There's a couple of parts that 00:17:25.230 --> 00:17:27.809 are maybe not good for the youngest youngins 00:17:27.809 --> 00:17:30.170 in the house, but it's a fun movie. It's a very 00:17:30.170 --> 00:17:32.990 fun movie. Absolutely. All right, let me stay 00:17:32.990 --> 00:17:35.529 in that vein. And this is a movie that's been 00:17:35.529 --> 00:17:38.430 remade a couple of times in different iterations, 00:17:38.650 --> 00:17:42.569 but I want to talk about the Jamie Lee Curtis 00:17:42.569 --> 00:17:47.630 and Lindsay Lohan vehicle. freaky friday oh okay 00:17:47.630 --> 00:17:50.710 the band pink slip with take me away which is 00:17:50.710 --> 00:17:53.289 actually a cover song it was originally recorded 00:17:53.289 --> 00:17:56.970 by a group out of australia called lash and it 00:17:56.970 --> 00:18:00.529 was a hit in australia reaching number 33 i had 00:18:00.529 --> 00:18:02.289 this on my list if you haven't figured it out 00:18:02.289 --> 00:18:05.930 yet nice freaky friday is one of those ones that 00:18:05.930 --> 00:18:09.029 my kids fell on to is when they were young and 00:18:09.029 --> 00:18:12.470 i've seen it so many times and it's so good and 00:18:12.470 --> 00:18:16.119 just like spinal tap This year is getting a sequel. 00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:19.920 Only time will tell if it captures the lightning 00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:22.579 in a bottle that the 2003 movie was. Because 00:18:22.579 --> 00:18:25.299 at the end of the day, yes, that was even a remake 00:18:25.299 --> 00:18:29.099 from the original Freaky Friday. But I think 00:18:29.099 --> 00:18:31.859 given our age, they did a great job with that 00:18:31.859 --> 00:18:35.440 one, modernizing it, keeping the same vibe. Believe 00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:37.460 it or not, I think Lindsay Lohan did an excellent 00:18:37.460 --> 00:18:40.599 job in that movie. And Jamie Lee Curtis was fantastic. 00:18:41.369 --> 00:18:43.750 She's fantastic in anything and anything. True 00:18:43.750 --> 00:18:46.349 lies. All of it. She's just hands down. Incredible. 00:18:46.369 --> 00:18:49.670 But this movie was fun and the music was perfect. 00:18:49.769 --> 00:18:53.410 I definitely, they definitely Popeye's the version 00:18:53.410 --> 00:18:56.430 for freaky Friday, the take me away song, but 00:18:56.430 --> 00:18:58.650 I love it. I love the pick. Yeah. And you've 00:18:58.650 --> 00:19:00.450 got a great, you mentioned the great soundtrack 00:19:00.450 --> 00:19:03.109 is again, bowling for soup recording baby one 00:19:03.109 --> 00:19:05.710 more time for the soundtrack as well. It's just 00:19:05.710 --> 00:19:09.200 terrific to kind of hear that, that new. kind 00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:12.339 of feel that that soundtrack puts out for the 00:19:12.339 --> 00:19:14.500 movie and again that the theme has been done 00:19:14.500 --> 00:19:18.240 from the 70s george burns right with um 18 again 00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:22.359 a very similar vein of of you know something 00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:25.099 magical happens and the adult is transferred 00:19:25.099 --> 00:19:27.619 into the body of the child and vice versa didn't 00:19:27.619 --> 00:19:29.880 fred savage do something with with that as well 00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:32.640 fred savage was with judge reinhold and vice 00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:35.140 versa Yes, exactly what I was thinking. Then 00:19:35.140 --> 00:19:37.920 you also have 17 again, which was the Matthew 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:40.640 Perry version of it. That's right. So again, 00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:44.180 you've got a ton of variations on the theme and 00:19:44.180 --> 00:19:46.720 it just the movies. You could take them, relieve 00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:49.279 them. But the soundtrack for the 2003 Freaky 00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:52.519 Friday was so good. Oh, it was so great. And 00:19:52.519 --> 00:19:54.940 to follow that up, I'm going to drop a bomb on 00:19:54.940 --> 00:19:58.930 this episode now. All right. Because we haven't 00:19:58.930 --> 00:20:01.069 gone off the rails. I mean, a little bit in some 00:20:01.069 --> 00:20:03.230 instances. I think Zack Attack on volume one 00:20:03.230 --> 00:20:05.049 was going off the rails right from the beginning. 00:20:05.490 --> 00:20:08.750 But how could we do a fictitious bands episode 00:20:08.750 --> 00:20:11.289 and not talk about prestige worldwide and boats 00:20:11.289 --> 00:20:17.329 and hoes? Oh, yes. That's great. Oh, my God. 00:20:17.490 --> 00:20:20.369 Brothers is one of the funniest movies of the 00:20:20.369 --> 00:20:24.640 last two decades by far. so quotable we're not 00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:26.380 going to quote any of it here we're not even 00:20:26.380 --> 00:20:29.039 going to talk about the lyrics of boats and hoes 00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:32.319 here it's filthy the movie is just terrible but 00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:34.859 there's so many lines in it i find myself using 00:20:34.859 --> 00:20:38.240 in everyday life if i walk into a room that's 00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:41.900 not messy in our house with some of the kids 00:20:41.900 --> 00:20:44.900 toys or just day -to -day life you know I'll 00:20:44.900 --> 00:20:46.599 walk in and say, there's so much room here for 00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:49.180 activities. I mean, it's just one of those quotable 00:20:49.180 --> 00:20:52.019 movies and boats and hoes at the end of the day 00:20:52.019 --> 00:20:56.380 is just a fun frigging song that I have on my 00:20:56.380 --> 00:20:59.380 comedy playlist. And I laugh every single time 00:20:59.380 --> 00:21:01.700 I hear it. It's tough because I could have easily 00:21:01.700 --> 00:21:04.759 went with Dewey Cox because Jesse Riley is so 00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:08.710 funny. He's got such a great. rapport on screen 00:21:08.710 --> 00:21:11.450 anytime with whoever he's with he's just knows 00:21:11.450 --> 00:21:14.470 how to like make the scenes work and he does 00:21:14.470 --> 00:21:17.690 it so well with will ferrell you've got two amazing 00:21:17.690 --> 00:21:21.509 movies they did together in step brothers and 00:21:21.509 --> 00:21:24.789 talladega nights then they did that sherlock 00:21:24.789 --> 00:21:27.250 holmes one that i don't remember seeing but i've 00:21:27.250 --> 00:21:29.369 heard from a lot of people it's not very good 00:21:29.369 --> 00:21:32.049 but that aside yeah it doesn't get any better 00:21:32.049 --> 00:21:34.009 than prestige worldwide as far as i'm concerned 00:21:34.009 --> 00:21:36.700 so good it's your catalina wine mixer That's 00:21:36.700 --> 00:21:40.920 so good. I love it. I love it. And another great 00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:43.700 movie with a great cast. You know, we could go 00:21:43.700 --> 00:21:46.619 on for, for hours about the place that that holds 00:21:46.619 --> 00:21:48.960 in my heart. I'll never look at a drum set the 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.299 same way. Did we just become best friends? That's 00:21:53.299 --> 00:21:55.440 so good. All right. What are you following it 00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:57.640 up with? All right. Wow. That's a hard one to 00:21:57.640 --> 00:21:59.880 come out of. Let's take it back. Let's, let's 00:21:59.880 --> 00:22:01.700 do a little bit of a reset. And I know we, we, 00:22:01.700 --> 00:22:04.359 we kind of talk about these. A lot of these movies 00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:07.660 are, are just. Amazing. But I'm going to go back 00:22:07.660 --> 00:22:10.019 to welcome everybody back to the Death Delay 00:22:10.019 --> 00:22:13.660 Club. We're going to do a song tonight that will 00:22:13.660 --> 00:22:17.480 live on in the hearts and minds of fans of Animal 00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:20.279 House forever. This is Otis Day in the Nights 00:22:20.279 --> 00:22:23.259 with their hit song, Shama Lama Ding Dong. Whoa. 00:22:23.880 --> 00:22:26.559 I thought you were going to go with Shout. Oh, 00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:29.130 yeah. I'm going to go with Shyamalan. That scene 00:22:29.130 --> 00:22:34.190 in the movie, a fantastic movie. National Lampoon 00:22:34.190 --> 00:22:36.630 just nails them when they put these things out. 00:22:36.930 --> 00:22:39.690 Cannot make that movie today, just like Blazing 00:22:39.690 --> 00:22:43.069 Saddles. I think SR -71 said it best in the song, 00:22:43.289 --> 00:22:45.650 Politically Correct. You cannot make that movie 00:22:45.650 --> 00:22:48.369 today. And I think that's why our generation, 00:22:48.490 --> 00:22:51.130 and maybe this is a big soapbox moment for me, 00:22:51.170 --> 00:22:55.190 but I feel like our generation has been prepped 00:22:55.190 --> 00:23:00.180 via movies. like Animal House and Revenge of 00:23:00.180 --> 00:23:03.920 the Nerds and Porky's and anything by Mel Brooks. 00:23:04.099 --> 00:23:06.420 And then in standup comedy between the likes 00:23:06.420 --> 00:23:09.339 of Richard Pryor and George Carlin and Sam Kinison 00:23:09.339 --> 00:23:13.200 and Dice, we have a threshold for offensiveness 00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:15.480 that I think is higher than other generations 00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.160 because of what we grew up with. That's right. 00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:20.980 Absolutely. And Animal House is a perfect example 00:23:20.980 --> 00:23:24.680 of that. Otis Day is another example of an artist 00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:27.890 that was fictitional. but has taken that on and 00:23:27.890 --> 00:23:31.049 it's become his career. He still tours his Otis 00:23:31.049 --> 00:23:35.049 day in the nights, which I love. All right. I'm 00:23:35.049 --> 00:23:39.529 going to go serious. Kind of serious. Oh, it's, 00:23:39.529 --> 00:23:43.009 I mean, it's a serious song. I think it's a fair 00:23:43.009 --> 00:23:46.309 to say, and this song has been recorded by the 00:23:46.309 --> 00:23:49.390 Stanley brothers, Bob Dylan, ginger Baker's air 00:23:49.390 --> 00:23:52.829 force. Ooh, but I'm going to go with the movie 00:23:52.829 --> 00:23:58.599 that came out. in 2000 by the coen brothers oh 00:23:58.599 --> 00:24:01.940 brother where art thou oh and i'm gonna go with 00:24:01.940 --> 00:24:05.640 the soggy bottom boys i am a man of constant 00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:09.920 sorrow that's fantastic it's a total 180 from 00:24:09.920 --> 00:24:13.079 shamalama ding dong being an oldie song but i 00:24:13.079 --> 00:24:15.599 feel like it's gonna be hard to kind of come 00:24:15.599 --> 00:24:19.039 out of the oldies with anything right now i mean 00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:20.640 obviously i could have went with the wonders 00:24:20.640 --> 00:24:23.319 but you stole that from me in volume one And 00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:25.279 I feel like this can kind of pivot us in many 00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:27.880 different directions. And this version is so 00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:30.819 good. It actually charted the soggy bottom boys 00:24:30.819 --> 00:24:34.259 version. It hit number 35 on the U S hot country 00:24:34.259 --> 00:24:38.880 charts. And it's a frigging incredible song. 00:24:39.720 --> 00:24:43.180 Definitely movie aside. Like I love this song. 00:24:43.220 --> 00:24:45.640 It was produced by T -bone Burnett who produced 00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:48.019 so many frigging incredible albums, including 00:24:48.019 --> 00:24:50.220 counting crows, August and everything after, 00:24:50.299 --> 00:24:52.799 which I just did an episode about. But yeah, 00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:56.059 man, this is this is different. This one is one 00:24:56.059 --> 00:24:58.019 of those songs that it's like this could have 00:24:58.019 --> 00:25:01.140 been a massive hit for any band at the time. 00:25:01.140 --> 00:25:04.440 And it just happened to be in a movie by a fictitious 00:25:04.440 --> 00:25:08.160 band. Part of the beauty of Oh Brother Where 00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:11.279 Art Thou is that the Coen brothers put together 00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:15.460 really good movies. They're very dry sense of 00:25:15.460 --> 00:25:18.539 humor kind of movie, which is great. I like that 00:25:18.539 --> 00:25:21.440 kind of stuff a lot. But the soundtrack to the 00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:24.980 movie almost was bigger than the movie itself. 00:25:25.140 --> 00:25:27.059 And the movie's great. Don't get me wrong. But 00:25:27.059 --> 00:25:29.720 more people were talking about the soundtrack 00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:32.880 than they were the movie itself. The plot of 00:25:32.880 --> 00:25:36.160 the movie itself. Yes. That kind of music is 00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:40.180 just, what is it? Swampy, kind of bluesy, bluegrassy. 00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:44.500 Americana. Americana, right? It's just one of 00:25:44.500 --> 00:25:47.160 those things like doing banjos from Deliverance. 00:25:47.609 --> 00:25:49.609 You hear it and you're like, you know, the movie 00:25:49.609 --> 00:25:51.630 was kind of, Oh my God, that's kind of weird. 00:25:51.730 --> 00:25:54.710 But the song kind of takes you to a place. Yeah. 00:25:54.769 --> 00:25:56.670 You know what I mean? And I think you can thank 00:25:56.670 --> 00:25:59.009 Dan Tominski from that. Dan is part of Alison 00:25:59.009 --> 00:26:02.069 Krauss's band union station. Yes. So you already 00:26:02.069 --> 00:26:04.910 know that there's talent behind this song and 00:26:04.910 --> 00:26:07.029 they were able to bring it out. And the performance 00:26:07.029 --> 00:26:09.309 that George Clooney and crew give in the movie, 00:26:09.329 --> 00:26:12.009 make it really believable. And it really just 00:26:12.009 --> 00:26:14.690 works so, so well. So yeah, it's definitely a 00:26:14.690 --> 00:26:18.279 pivot at a shamalama ding dong, but. Not horribly, 00:26:18.319 --> 00:26:21.039 because Shamalama Ding Dong is a mellower song. 00:26:21.160 --> 00:26:23.440 Had you gone with Shout, I might not have gone 00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:25.799 with Man of Constant Sorrow here. Fantastic. 00:26:26.220 --> 00:26:29.339 All right. So I kind of talked about how this 00:26:29.339 --> 00:26:32.720 is a kind of a swampy, bluesy, Americana, bluegrass 00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.440 kind of song. I'm going to take us into some 00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:42.039 blues next. And I just this movie straight up 00:26:42.039 --> 00:26:45.329 mockumentary. I remember. One of my favorite 00:26:45.329 --> 00:26:48.009 parts of the movie with this particular song 00:26:48.009 --> 00:26:51.609 focuses with the camera shots. And that is the 00:26:51.609 --> 00:26:54.410 thing that made this such a big thing for me. 00:26:54.490 --> 00:26:58.069 The commitments covering Aretha Franklin's I 00:26:58.069 --> 00:27:00.069 Have Never Loved a Man As Much As I Love You. 00:27:00.210 --> 00:27:03.150 And I just remember the lead singer in the band, 00:27:03.250 --> 00:27:06.990 the seductive, hypnotic swaying and the tight 00:27:06.990 --> 00:27:09.789 close -ups on her face as she's singing the words 00:27:09.789 --> 00:27:13.130 into the microphone is just... Gorgeous. And 00:27:13.130 --> 00:27:16.450 I was I'm like, is this made up for the movie? 00:27:16.630 --> 00:27:18.910 And then I had to go back because I don't know 00:27:18.910 --> 00:27:22.549 all of Riri's catalog. But man, I got to tell 00:27:22.549 --> 00:27:26.130 you, that is a beautiful cover. And the commitments 00:27:26.130 --> 00:27:29.150 really, really did a great job. Another one of 00:27:29.150 --> 00:27:31.450 the soundtracks that just took off even further 00:27:31.450 --> 00:27:33.720 than the movie. I was just going to say that. 00:27:33.740 --> 00:27:35.859 I feel like I had them on my list, but I had 00:27:35.859 --> 00:27:39.339 their cover of Mustang Sally, which I know, I 00:27:39.339 --> 00:27:41.319 know, I know. I've been in cover bands for years. 00:27:42.079 --> 00:27:45.140 Mustang Sally, believe it or not, and I know 00:27:45.140 --> 00:27:47.839 I'm going to offend cover band musicians here. 00:27:47.960 --> 00:27:50.740 It's never gotten old for me. I love Buddy Guy's 00:27:50.740 --> 00:27:53.680 version. I love the version from The Commitments. 00:27:53.819 --> 00:27:56.559 I don't know why, because I've heard and played 00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:00.059 that song more times than I could fathomably 00:28:00.059 --> 00:28:02.829 count. But I never got sick of it. And the Commitments 00:28:02.829 --> 00:28:06.049 version is incredible. I love their take on Aretha's. 00:28:06.170 --> 00:28:08.369 I have never loved a man as much as I love you. 00:28:08.869 --> 00:28:12.170 The movie's, again, underrated. I think people 00:28:12.170 --> 00:28:14.210 talk about the soundtracks more than the movie. 00:28:14.730 --> 00:28:18.269 Definitely. Well, you're in blues now. Blues 00:28:18.269 --> 00:28:21.650 -ish. And I don't have a lot of blues stuff. 00:28:21.849 --> 00:28:28.269 Well. All right. I do, actually. I'm going to 00:28:28.269 --> 00:28:30.589 switch a song. but I'm going to go with the same 00:28:30.589 --> 00:28:33.430 group. And remember how I said at the beginning 00:28:33.430 --> 00:28:35.630 of volume one, that I was going to add an asterisk 00:28:35.630 --> 00:28:38.710 and say that the band could be part of cartoons, 00:28:38.910 --> 00:28:42.289 television shows, movies, and or pop culture 00:28:42.289 --> 00:28:44.529 culture. Yep. All right. I'm going to use my 00:28:44.529 --> 00:28:47.430 pop culture, fictitious band right now. Okay. 00:28:47.490 --> 00:28:50.549 I'm about, I'm about to blow your frigging mind 00:28:50.549 --> 00:28:52.849 and blow everybody's mind. Listening. Are you 00:28:52.849 --> 00:28:57.569 ready for this? Yep. Okay. The song banana Hill, 00:28:57.710 --> 00:29:02.259 the band. The Rockafire explosion from Showbiz 00:29:02.259 --> 00:29:05.000 Pizza. The animatronic band that you sat and 00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:08.740 watched at Showbiz Pizza. The big bad competition 00:29:08.740 --> 00:29:13.099 for Chuck E. Cheese. Right. Mic drop closing 00:29:13.099 --> 00:29:16.579 out the side. This is a cover of Blueberry Hill 00:29:16.579 --> 00:29:21.660 by Fats Domino called Banana Hill. And yes, I 00:29:21.660 --> 00:29:25.990 have unlocked core memories. for you via the 00:29:25.990 --> 00:29:29.069 look on your face right now. I don't like this 00:29:29.069 --> 00:29:34.670 song. I love it. This is genius. I didn't even, 00:29:34.809 --> 00:29:39.450 you know how long it's been since I've even thought 00:29:39.450 --> 00:29:43.309 of, oh my. And you're there right now. You can 00:29:43.309 --> 00:29:45.470 taste the pizza right now because this is where 00:29:45.470 --> 00:29:47.529 you sat and ate your pizza. That's right. And 00:29:47.529 --> 00:29:51.799 listen, I got to tell you, kids, when. Chuck 00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:54.720 E. Cheese was in the 80s and early 70s when they 00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:57.559 first started. Chuck E. Cheese was actually legitimate 00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:01.059 food. The pizza was actually pretty damn good. 00:30:01.220 --> 00:30:06.200 And now it's like cardboard with spaghetti sauce 00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:09.099 on it. Yeah, but showbiz was their competition. 00:30:09.579 --> 00:30:12.559 And I don't know. Here's the thing. I don't know 00:30:12.559 --> 00:30:16.000 how regional showbiz was. Very. So I'd be very 00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:19.150 curious. Who is listening to this that actually 00:30:19.150 --> 00:30:22.349 remembers Showbiz Pizza? That's why I had to 00:30:22.349 --> 00:30:25.109 bring in the Chuck E. Cheese reference. And there 00:30:25.109 --> 00:30:27.509 are videos all over YouTube. There's a documentary 00:30:27.509 --> 00:30:31.650 about the Rockafire Explosion. And they actually 00:30:31.650 --> 00:30:35.269 put out the Rockafire Explosion soundtrack for 00:30:35.269 --> 00:30:39.269 2025's Record Store Day on vinyl. No, that is 00:30:39.269 --> 00:30:43.829 awesome. Slow clap, man. Slow clap. That's fantastic. 00:30:44.269 --> 00:30:47.079 What a closer. Well, there you have it, folks. 00:30:47.180 --> 00:30:51.339 Side A of Volume 2 of the Ultimate Fictional 00:30:51.339 --> 00:30:54.400 Bands playlist, which consists of Steel Dragons, 00:30:54.599 --> 00:30:57.779 We All Die Young from the movie Rockstar, Spinal 00:30:57.779 --> 00:31:01.039 Taps, Big Bottom from This Is Spinal Tap, School 00:31:01.039 --> 00:31:04.619 of Rocks, School of Rock from School of Rock, 00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:07.839 Josie and the Pussycats, Three Small Words from 00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:10.579 Josie and the Pussycats, Pink Slips, Take Me 00:31:10.579 --> 00:31:13.859 Away from Freaky Friday.

And now, Jay, I get to kick things 00:31:50.069 --> 00:31:53.289 off for side two. And I'm going to drop one that 00:31:53.289 --> 00:31:58.410 is a song that I vividly remember the song. But 00:31:58.410 --> 00:32:00.789 I might be hard -pressed to tell you much about 00:32:00.789 --> 00:32:02.950 the show. I remember watching it all the time. 00:32:08.589 --> 00:32:12.289 of my core memory but the theme song is always 00:32:12.289 --> 00:32:15.369 front and center because when you say we're kids 00:32:15.369 --> 00:32:20.730 incorporated you know the response is k i d s 00:32:20.730 --> 00:32:25.349 and i am going with the theme from disney's kids 00:32:25.349 --> 00:32:28.930 incorporated i can't tell you a damn thing about 00:32:28.930 --> 00:32:32.130 the show but i remember the song and i remember 00:32:32.130 --> 00:32:35.220 the bloodhound gang covering it Anybody that 00:32:35.220 --> 00:32:37.420 was around. Oh, my God. Yeah. Bloodhound Gang 00:32:37.420 --> 00:32:41.319 do an incredible punk cover of Kids Incorporated. 00:32:41.319 --> 00:32:43.420 And it's fantastic. And you need to check it 00:32:43.420 --> 00:32:46.359 out. I'll be curious if Kids Incorporated falls 00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:49.460 under the Rockafire explosion level of when was 00:32:49.460 --> 00:32:52.140 the last time I heard those words? Oh, my gosh. 00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:55.359 So what I can tell you is I'm just a hair older 00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:58.940 than you. And get this. Spawn the careers of 00:32:58.940 --> 00:33:03.900 which you may know. Martika. Fergie Ferg. formerly 00:33:03.900 --> 00:33:06.279 of the Black Eyed Peas and then solo artist. 00:33:06.539 --> 00:33:09.000 Also Mario Lopez, who we talked about in Zack 00:33:09.000 --> 00:33:11.839 Attack. And Jennifer Love Hewitt. And Jennifer 00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:15.380 Love Hewitt. So you've got a great vehicle there 00:33:15.380 --> 00:33:19.980 for some real up and coming stars. That is fantastic. 00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:23.960 I love it. I love it. Well, how are you going 00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:28.799 to follow that up? Well, Brian, let's go to the 00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:36.470 mall. Robin Scherbatsky was a... Well, it's Robin 00:33:36.470 --> 00:33:39.849 Sparkles. Well, now, yes, of course. Under her 00:33:39.849 --> 00:33:42.750 stage name, Robin Sparkles, before she had a 00:33:42.750 --> 00:33:45.809 real dark encounter with Dave Coulier. Why does 00:33:45.809 --> 00:33:49.630 everybody think it's always him? It was a great 00:33:49.630 --> 00:33:52.869 riff on How I Met Your Mother on the Alanis Morissette 00:33:52.869 --> 00:33:56.230 story that Robin Sparkles wrote a song about 00:33:56.230 --> 00:33:59.250 going to the mall. And it's bubblegum, it's pop, 00:33:59.410 --> 00:34:03.000 it's Canadian, it's perfect. It's a play on Alanis 00:34:03.000 --> 00:34:05.099 Morissette because a lot of people don't know 00:34:05.099 --> 00:34:07.559 that Alanis' first two albums released in Canada 00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:10.059 were pop albums. That's right. Before Jagged 00:34:10.059 --> 00:34:12.860 Little Pill. I also think it's definitely a hat 00:34:12.860 --> 00:34:16.199 tip and a nod to Tiffany because Tiffany was 00:34:16.199 --> 00:34:18.719 the one who started the whole mall craze in the 00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:21.539 80s with I Think We're Alone Now. She did the 00:34:21.539 --> 00:34:23.820 mall tours. That's right. And I feel like it's 00:34:23.820 --> 00:34:26.719 a hat tip to both of them. And Jay, I don't know 00:34:26.719 --> 00:34:29.420 if you know this, but on streaming services. 00:34:30.190 --> 00:34:32.949 There is an album called how I met your music. 00:34:33.309 --> 00:34:36.690 And it is the soundtrack to how I met your mother. 00:34:36.750 --> 00:34:39.849 That includes let's go to the mall in full version. 00:34:40.289 --> 00:34:44.389 Sand castles in the sand. Nothing suits me like 00:34:44.389 --> 00:34:48.309 a suit. Marshall versus the machines. Two beavers 00:34:48.309 --> 00:34:51.469 are better than one. You just got slapped. Both 00:34:51.469 --> 00:34:53.869 the piano version and the version with boys to 00:34:53.869 --> 00:34:57.730 men. And then a bang. Bang, bang, bang, bang, 00:34:57.730 --> 00:35:00.889 bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. So 00:35:00.889 --> 00:35:04.550 great. How I met your mother is my wife and my. 00:35:05.329 --> 00:35:08.510 OK, it's too late to start watching anything 00:35:08.510 --> 00:35:10.510 that's going to take any bit of brain power. 00:35:10.929 --> 00:35:14.250 Yep. We just go on and we put on an episode. 00:35:14.289 --> 00:35:16.690 And if we pass out halfway through, we pick it 00:35:16.690 --> 00:35:19.070 up the next night. It is our kind of end of the 00:35:19.070 --> 00:35:22.090 night show. We've watched the show. about as 00:35:22.090 --> 00:35:24.889 many times as friends. And every single time 00:35:24.889 --> 00:35:27.670 we do a run through of the series, we just talk 00:35:27.670 --> 00:35:30.849 about how creative the writing was on that show. 00:35:31.010 --> 00:35:33.750 It was genius. I understand that people have 00:35:33.750 --> 00:35:35.690 a problem with the ending of the show, and I'm 00:35:35.690 --> 00:35:37.750 not going to spoil it if you've never watched 00:35:37.750 --> 00:35:41.449 it. However, there are callbacks in season seven 00:35:41.449 --> 00:35:43.909 that go back to a joke that started in season 00:35:43.909 --> 00:35:47.170 two, and they ping pong, and you'll notice things 00:35:47.170 --> 00:35:49.760 that go back and forth. throughout the entire 00:35:49.760 --> 00:35:52.619 series. Oh, Barney with the entire long -term 00:35:52.619 --> 00:35:56.199 setups of the gags that he does, the bats and 00:35:56.199 --> 00:35:59.039 the craziness. It's stuff that they started way 00:35:59.039 --> 00:36:01.059 back in the early seasons, to your point. It 00:36:01.059 --> 00:36:04.079 goes right through up to season seven. What a 00:36:04.079 --> 00:36:06.920 setup! It's fantastic. Great writing, ensemble 00:36:06.920 --> 00:36:10.840 cast. And I have another tip of the hat there 00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:13.820 from the Alanis Morissette piece because she 00:36:13.820 --> 00:36:16.039 was in a television show called You Can't Do 00:36:16.039 --> 00:36:20.070 That on Television. So it follows Kids Incorporated 00:36:20.070 --> 00:36:22.690 perfectly. Yeah. There was no band on You Can't 00:36:22.690 --> 00:36:24.250 Do That on television. Right. Just barf with 00:36:24.250 --> 00:36:26.909 the barf burgers. That's right. I'll say this. 00:36:27.110 --> 00:36:29.469 How I Met Your Mother, it was not a musical, 00:36:29.530 --> 00:36:33.289 but every single song, especially Let's Go to 00:36:33.289 --> 00:36:35.550 the Mall, because I say it, my brain is going. 00:36:38.230 --> 00:36:41.289 I mean, we did the bang, bangity bang. Two beavers 00:36:41.289 --> 00:36:45.679 are better than one. These songs get stuck in 00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:47.820 your head. They are so well written, so well 00:36:47.820 --> 00:36:50.960 done. Say nothing more. If you haven't watched 00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:52.559 How I Met Your Mother all the way through, do 00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:57.000 it. Love the pick. We're dropping bombs this 00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.760 side, aren't we? Yeah. All right. Coming right 00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:04.099 back at you. Rex Manning, Say No More, Mon Amour, 00:37:04.139 --> 00:37:07.420 Empire Records. There it is. It had to happen. 00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:10.460 Had to happen. I don't think, you know, Let's 00:37:10.460 --> 00:37:13.019 Go to the Mall is about a mall and Empire Records 00:37:13.019 --> 00:37:16.360 is about a record store. So it's slightly different. 00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:19.840 But we just rewatched Empire Records recently. 00:37:19.860 --> 00:37:22.539 And this past fall, I went to see the stage play 00:37:22.539 --> 00:37:25.000 in Princeton, New Jersey. They did a month -long 00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:27.440 residency where the Princeton Record Exchange, 00:37:27.579 --> 00:37:30.980 the record store, actually provided. all of the 00:37:30.980 --> 00:37:34.199 set design for it. So the stage was set up like 00:37:34.199 --> 00:37:36.139 a record store. It had the bins and the booths 00:37:36.139 --> 00:37:38.539 and everything. Incredible stage play, great 00:37:38.539 --> 00:37:41.599 music, great new music that was created just 00:37:41.599 --> 00:37:44.179 for the stage version. I really hope it gets 00:37:44.179 --> 00:37:47.079 a bigger, wider release. Empire Records is a 00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:49.599 cult classic. I know there's two versions of 00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:51.679 the movie. If you have the original DVD, you're 00:37:51.679 --> 00:37:53.940 looking at the crappy fan edit of the movie. 00:37:54.099 --> 00:37:56.699 Make sure to get the Blu -ray and watch the theatrical 00:37:56.699 --> 00:37:59.780 version because that is the version. Yes. It's 00:37:59.780 --> 00:38:03.039 a classic. Say No More, Mon Amour, Rex Manning 00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:05.940 Day. People celebrate it every year. It had to 00:38:05.940 --> 00:38:08.860 be included. I'm so upset I didn't include it 00:38:08.860 --> 00:38:11.900 in volume one. No, we saved the best for the 00:38:11.900 --> 00:38:17.079 end, I think. Again, we talk about great movies, 00:38:17.420 --> 00:38:20.079 very cult -following movies, all -star cast, 00:38:20.460 --> 00:38:23.679 who's who of stars in that movie. Joey Lauren 00:38:23.679 --> 00:38:28.570 Adams, Renée Zellweger, Liv Tyler, just... went 00:38:28.570 --> 00:38:31.869 on to incredible stardom. And you could have 00:38:31.869 --> 00:38:34.769 gone with, what was the, is it Sugar High or 00:38:34.769 --> 00:38:36.829 Sugar Rush? Sugar High, I thought about going 00:38:36.829 --> 00:38:39.110 with Sugar High. Okay, let me talk about this. 00:38:39.329 --> 00:38:41.849 I really thought about going with Sugar High. 00:38:42.050 --> 00:38:46.590 So Sugar High is written by Coyote Shivers. And 00:38:46.590 --> 00:38:49.849 his name in real life is Francis Coyote Shivers. 00:38:49.909 --> 00:38:53.510 And he is a Canadian -American musician and actor. 00:38:54.289 --> 00:38:58.519 So it's actually his song. However, the movie 00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:02.219 version that you watch on screen, Renee Zellweger's 00:39:02.219 --> 00:39:05.920 character sings a verse. Right. That verse is 00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:09.280 not included on the soundtrack. So technically, 00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:13.579 the movie version is a fictional band for the 00:39:13.579 --> 00:39:16.539 likeness of the movie because Renee Zellweger 00:39:16.539 --> 00:39:19.340 sang the part of that song. That's right. But 00:39:19.340 --> 00:39:23.409 on the album. It's a song by a real person. Okay. 00:39:23.510 --> 00:39:26.050 Similar to what you did with SpongeBob and Sweet 00:39:26.050 --> 00:39:29.349 Victory on volume one. I decided let's go for 00:39:29.349 --> 00:39:32.829 the full fictitious character. Yes. And Rex Manning. 00:39:32.829 --> 00:39:36.090 It was hard to pull, but Rex Manning is not on 00:39:36.090 --> 00:39:39.050 the soundtrack to Empire Records. That was a 00:39:39.050 --> 00:39:41.929 misstep in my opinion. Sorry. Got to say it. 00:39:41.969 --> 00:39:45.809 I agree wholeheartedly. My goodness. So you've 00:39:45.809 --> 00:39:49.760 got. We mentioned in volume one Love Actually 00:39:49.760 --> 00:39:52.239 and the Gary Marshall movies and these giant 00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:54.960 rom -coms with multiple cast members and these 00:39:54.960 --> 00:39:57.260 multiple stories that go on within the show. 00:39:57.400 --> 00:40:00.739 And Billy Mac was a fictional character in Love 00:40:00.739 --> 00:40:03.519 Actually who had, you know, the whole thing about 00:40:03.519 --> 00:40:06.139 Valentine's Day and they were going to, you know, 00:40:06.139 --> 00:40:10.059 do this great song. I could go there. I'm not 00:40:10.059 --> 00:40:12.420 going to. I'm going to go deep. I don't think 00:40:12.420 --> 00:40:15.119 anybody is going to be. There are very few people 00:40:15.119 --> 00:40:17.429 who are going to know this one. Coming out of 00:40:17.429 --> 00:40:21.590 Say No More, I think I'm going to go with Buckaroo 00:40:21.590 --> 00:40:24.469 Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers and their 00:40:24.469 --> 00:40:27.050 cover of Since I Don't Have You. Peter Weller 00:40:27.050 --> 00:40:31.389 and Jeff Goldblum in a movie. Wow. I don't even 00:40:31.389 --> 00:40:33.809 know how to categorize this movie other than 00:40:33.809 --> 00:40:38.849 mountains of cocaine. This movie is actually 00:40:38.849 --> 00:40:42.670 titled The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across 00:40:42.670 --> 00:40:45.150 the Eighth Dimension. That's right. It's shortened 00:40:45.150 --> 00:40:47.940 by. a lot of people to just buckaroo bonsai. 00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:50.420 Right. I'm not going to lie, Jay. My parents 00:40:50.420 --> 00:40:53.159 took me to see this in the theater. Nice. I was 00:40:53.159 --> 00:40:57.159 seven. Can you imagine what this movie did to 00:40:57.159 --> 00:40:59.719 a seven? I sat there just kind of like, you know, 00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:02.380 when you talk to your dog and your dog tilts 00:41:02.380 --> 00:41:06.039 their head to the side, as if to say, I hear 00:41:06.039 --> 00:41:09.559 you're talking, but I don't quite know what you 00:41:09.559 --> 00:41:13.139 mean. I did that for the entire run length of 00:41:13.139 --> 00:41:16.460 the movie. And I'm not going to lie. It is now 00:41:16.460 --> 00:41:19.559 41 years old. And I think if I were to watch 00:41:19.559 --> 00:41:22.440 it again, I might be doing the same thing. Oh, 00:41:22.500 --> 00:41:24.800 I did. No, totally. The last time I watched was 00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:27.760 last year, I want to say, or a year and a half 00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:30.840 ago, I watched it again. And because I found 00:41:30.840 --> 00:41:35.119 my friends, Super Pot Hero cast did the show. 00:41:35.139 --> 00:41:37.280 They pulled it as one of the shows, the movies 00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:40.139 that they were going to review. And I was like, 00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:42.199 I have not seen that movie since it came out. 00:41:42.519 --> 00:41:45.940 And I got it. Yeah. So you've got RoboCop, right? 00:41:46.039 --> 00:41:49.559 And you've got Jeff Goldblum, who's Jeff Goldblum. 00:41:49.599 --> 00:41:51.599 He's just great and everything. Don't forget 00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:54.559 Christopher Lloyd and Christopher Lloyd and Clancy 00:41:54.559 --> 00:41:57.179 Brown, who was the John Lithgow. I mean, there 00:41:57.179 --> 00:41:59.940 was everybody. Oh, John Lithgow's character is 00:41:59.940 --> 00:42:04.690 hysterically funny. The movie is in a word. stupid 00:42:04.690 --> 00:42:08.469 it's just it's and in another word terrible it's 00:42:08.469 --> 00:42:11.030 not great it's not cohesive but it's so bad it's 00:42:11.030 --> 00:42:14.730 good it's so bad it's good exactly exactly and 00:42:14.730 --> 00:42:18.469 so if you don't know the movie it's i guess it's 00:42:18.469 --> 00:42:22.150 an alien fighting movie right superhero kind 00:42:22.150 --> 00:42:27.010 of ish ish where these cowboys kind of with kung 00:42:27.010 --> 00:42:30.489 fu like abilities are traveling and they're in 00:42:30.489 --> 00:42:34.500 a band And John Lithgow's character is an Italian, 00:42:34.860 --> 00:42:38.440 but he gets possessed by some alien. And he's 00:42:38.440 --> 00:42:41.019 trying to bring other aliens. It's so great. 00:42:41.239 --> 00:42:44.159 It's fantastic. I feel like I was just sitting 00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:47.940 in the writer's room as you were describing it 00:42:47.940 --> 00:42:53.400 there. They sat around a table. Again, mountains 00:42:53.400 --> 00:42:59.510 of cocaine. And just, here, I got an idea. let's 00:42:59.510 --> 00:43:03.329 do aliens and cowboys like just hilarious and 00:43:03.329 --> 00:43:05.489 i'm not talking about the fun john favreau harrison 00:43:05.489 --> 00:43:09.230 ford aliens and cowboys movies like this is just 00:43:09.230 --> 00:43:13.650 craziness 80s sci -fi it's great well it's funny 00:43:13.650 --> 00:43:15.829 you mentioned harrison ford because being you 00:43:15.829 --> 00:43:17.789 went with the sci -fi routine i'm going to do 00:43:17.789 --> 00:43:22.090 the same because jay we've gone an episode and 00:43:22.090 --> 00:43:25.960 three quarters and we haven't talked about Figurine 00:43:25.960 --> 00:43:30.159 Don and the Modal Nodes, otherwise known as the 00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:33.980 Cantina Band in Star Wars. Oh, my God. He went 00:43:33.980 --> 00:43:39.320 with the Modal Nodes. Yes. How can we not talk 00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:41.440 about, we're talking about fictitious bands. 00:43:42.380 --> 00:43:45.559 People don't even, look, if you're a Star Wars 00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:47.659 fan, you know Figurine Don and the Modal Nodes, 00:43:47.699 --> 00:43:50.260 but I had to say the Cantina Band because most 00:43:50.260 --> 00:43:53.800 people refer to them as the Cantina Band. And 00:43:53.800 --> 00:43:56.840 this song, I mean, I can't tell you how many 00:43:56.840 --> 00:43:59.179 times I watched star Wars and no, I'm not calling 00:43:59.179 --> 00:44:01.639 it a new hope. I'm calling it star Wars. It was 00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:03.940 called star Wars. When I was a kid, the movie 00:44:03.940 --> 00:44:06.679 screen said star Wars and it was star Wars until 00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:09.159 they changed it to a new hope. I still refer 00:44:09.159 --> 00:44:12.519 to it as star Wars and I love the cantina song. 00:44:12.820 --> 00:44:16.400 It's fun. It's goofy. It's John Williams. Who's 00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:19.840 just a frigging genius because he captured the 00:44:19.840 --> 00:44:23.489 essence of that scene. In a way that it actually 00:44:23.489 --> 00:44:26.090 felt like music you might hear in outer space. 00:44:26.250 --> 00:44:30.730 It actually felt like, man, this doesn't sound 00:44:30.730 --> 00:44:32.530 like humans would be playing this. There was 00:44:32.530 --> 00:44:38.489 such a vibe to this song. And it is just a testament 00:44:38.489 --> 00:44:44.210 to how amazing John Williams is. 100%. The world 00:44:44.210 --> 00:44:49.130 building that came out of that movie is undeniable. 00:44:50.440 --> 00:44:53.000 Prequels be damned and sequels suck and we get 00:44:53.000 --> 00:44:55.980 it. But the original world that George Lucas 00:44:55.980 --> 00:44:59.199 built in his head and how that translated to 00:44:59.199 --> 00:45:04.139 the big screen in 1977 cannot be denied. You 00:45:04.139 --> 00:45:06.019 could have gone with Cy Snoodles and the Max 00:45:06.019 --> 00:45:11.780 Rebo Band, but no. And the Cantina song is probably 00:45:11.780 --> 00:45:14.659 one of the most recognizable pieces of music 00:45:14.659 --> 00:45:18.480 out there. In fact, Miko, right? Redid that in 00:45:18.480 --> 00:45:22.030 the 70s as a disco style. So pretty cool stuff. 00:45:22.809 --> 00:45:25.449 All right. So coming out of that, I think it's 00:45:25.449 --> 00:45:28.050 going to be this is actually pretty easy. Family 00:45:28.050 --> 00:45:30.349 Guy, who's been mentioned several times now in 00:45:30.349 --> 00:45:32.550 this last two volumes. And a lot of connections 00:45:32.550 --> 00:45:35.090 to Star Wars. Yep. A lot of connections. In fact, 00:45:35.150 --> 00:45:38.449 having done Blue Harvest, which was a parody 00:45:38.449 --> 00:45:41.789 of Star Wars, and then Something Something Dark 00:45:41.789 --> 00:45:44.409 Side, which was Empire Strikes Back. And then 00:45:44.409 --> 00:45:48.780 the last one was It's a Trap. which was return 00:45:48.780 --> 00:45:51.960 of the Jedi in that show. And in the parody, 00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:55.320 the after figuring Dan and the modal nodes are 00:45:55.320 --> 00:45:57.480 done playing, they're like, yeah, great. Thanks 00:45:57.480 --> 00:45:59.300 for coming out. Let's play that song again, the 00:45:59.300 --> 00:46:01.219 exact same song. And then they go back into. 00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:07.260 So anyway, that being said, Peter and Glenn later 00:46:07.260 --> 00:46:11.639 on in the show form a band, like Simon and Garfunkel, 00:46:11.699 --> 00:46:15.380 Garfunkel and oats kind of band called Griffin 00:46:15.380 --> 00:46:18.650 and quagmire. And they had a very big hit with 00:46:18.650 --> 00:46:22.630 a song called Butter on a Pop Tart. And that's 00:46:22.630 --> 00:46:27.949 where I'm going. It's so freaking good. Okay. 00:46:28.409 --> 00:46:34.760 Oh, my God. I mean, you could have picked so 00:46:34.760 --> 00:46:37.219 many songs out of the family guy lore. I'm actually 00:46:37.219 --> 00:46:39.739 shocked. We haven't gone down this road. I'm 00:46:39.739 --> 00:46:42.119 actually shocked. We haven't gone down the South 00:46:42.119 --> 00:46:44.780 park road yet. Like we are just, and we're getting 00:46:44.780 --> 00:46:47.400 towards the end of side B of volume two. And 00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:50.920 my list still feels endless at this point, but 00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:54.320 that is absolutely hysterical because that is 00:46:54.320 --> 00:46:56.900 one of my favorites from the series. It's so 00:46:56.900 --> 00:47:01.639 dumb. Yes. And so just ridiculous. But the song. 00:47:02.300 --> 00:47:06.059 is actually half catchy even though the lyrics 00:47:06.059 --> 00:47:09.760 are asinine so yep and i could have dude i could 00:47:09.760 --> 00:47:12.280 have gone with everyone from florida is stupid 00:47:12.280 --> 00:47:14.760 but i don't want to tick off anybody who listens 00:47:14.760 --> 00:47:17.219 to the shows yeah dude i get some good numbers 00:47:17.219 --> 00:47:19.800 in florida so i i disagree with i'm offended 00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:23.199 by that song it's offensive right yeah it's especially 00:47:23.199 --> 00:47:26.179 to all the florida mixtapers yeah i lived in 00:47:26.179 --> 00:47:29.610 florida for 10 years not everybody is But they 00:47:29.610 --> 00:47:34.469 also had what was Home Bowl. Yeah, that that 00:47:34.469 --> 00:47:36.309 whole that whole episode was so funny. Oh, my 00:47:36.309 --> 00:47:38.650 God. So funny. But most of those songs are really 00:47:38.650 --> 00:47:42.630 not safe for work. Kind of. You had the uncensored 00:47:42.630 --> 00:47:45.110 versions of the show, which was what I was watching. 00:47:45.230 --> 00:47:48.530 And there it just adds a layer of how in the 00:47:48.530 --> 00:47:51.070 world did you get away with this? Yeah. And throwing 00:47:51.070 --> 00:47:53.130 it back to the whole how I met your mother thing, 00:47:53.190 --> 00:47:55.630 why they didn't put out a Griffin and Quagmire 00:47:55.630 --> 00:48:01.119 digital EP. I'm shocked. Because Family Guy does 00:48:01.119 --> 00:48:04.440 have a Symphony Orchestra live album out. So 00:48:04.440 --> 00:48:06.079 I'm actually surprised they never took it to 00:48:06.079 --> 00:48:09.619 that kind of breaking the fourth wall by putting 00:48:09.619 --> 00:48:11.480 the album actually out on streaming services. 00:48:11.639 --> 00:48:14.659 But I digress. That's tough to come out of. I'm 00:48:14.659 --> 00:48:17.059 not going to lie. But I'm going to pivot here. 00:48:17.139 --> 00:48:19.380 A little bit of a record scratch. Just a small 00:48:19.380 --> 00:48:21.880 one. Just a tiny little record scratch there. 00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:24.579 And go in a different direction and go with a 00:48:24.579 --> 00:48:29.110 song that's a little bit more serious. And something 00:48:29.110 --> 00:48:30.929 that I've talked about on this show and I've 00:48:30.929 --> 00:48:33.969 talked about on perfectly good podcast, which 00:48:33.969 --> 00:48:36.650 is another member of the Pantheon podcast network 00:48:36.650 --> 00:48:38.869 with Sylvan and Jesse over there. They put on 00:48:38.869 --> 00:48:41.429 a great show and I'm going to go to the country 00:48:41.429 --> 00:48:45.010 bear soundtrack. Now the country bears is a movie 00:48:45.010 --> 00:48:49.869 that came out in 2002. And my now wife and I 00:48:49.869 --> 00:48:51.690 were dating at the time we're up in New Hampshire 00:48:51.690 --> 00:48:54.710 and they had a movie theater chain up there called 00:48:54.710 --> 00:48:58.360 Smitty's. And at the time, This movie theater 00:48:58.360 --> 00:49:02.039 chain basically started what you see in theaters 00:49:02.039 --> 00:49:05.380 now where you'd have the reclining chairs and, 00:49:05.559 --> 00:49:07.900 you know, kind of be able to order food. They 00:49:07.900 --> 00:49:10.460 were a full service restaurant. But instead of 00:49:10.460 --> 00:49:13.119 sitting in chairs like movie theater chairs, 00:49:13.440 --> 00:49:17.539 you sat in. They took the chairs out of Lincoln 00:49:17.539 --> 00:49:21.679 Town Cars. Oh, and. You sat in those chairs. 00:49:21.719 --> 00:49:23.960 They actually converted them. So they were big, 00:49:24.119 --> 00:49:27.980 fluffy, comfortable chairs that leaned back slightly 00:49:27.980 --> 00:49:31.260 enough, not all the way. Right. But there was 00:49:31.260 --> 00:49:33.619 a table in between you and your guest and you'd 00:49:33.619 --> 00:49:36.340 order your food and dinner. So at the time we 00:49:36.340 --> 00:49:37.960 were dating, we said, let's go to dinner at one 00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:40.860 of these movie things. So we got there at dinnertime. 00:49:41.800 --> 00:49:45.000 And what was the only movie showing? Country 00:49:45.000 --> 00:49:47.139 Bears. So we said, ah, screw it. We're going 00:49:47.139 --> 00:49:49.590 to just. try the experience out. Let's just go 00:49:49.590 --> 00:49:52.510 see whatever the movie is. Right. And as soon 00:49:52.510 --> 00:49:54.650 as the movie was done, I made us go to a record 00:49:54.650 --> 00:49:56.570 store and buy the soundtrack because the lead 00:49:56.570 --> 00:49:59.949 singer of the country bears is John Hyatt. Who's 00:49:59.949 --> 00:50:01.889 one of my favorite singer songwriters. As soon 00:50:01.889 --> 00:50:04.130 as I heard the opening, I'm like, that's John 00:50:04.130 --> 00:50:07.489 Hyatt. Oh my God. And the whole movie just features 00:50:07.489 --> 00:50:10.650 cameo after cameo after cameo of famous musicians. 00:50:11.150 --> 00:50:13.949 However, the last song of the movie, the kind 00:50:13.949 --> 00:50:16.389 of the grand finale straight through the heart 00:50:16.389 --> 00:50:20.650 of love. is a collaboration of John Hyatt, Don 00:50:20.650 --> 00:50:25.090 Henley, Bonnie Raitt, and Colin Hay from Men 00:50:25.090 --> 00:50:28.369 at Work. Very cool. And you put all those people 00:50:28.369 --> 00:50:30.750 on stage together. Now, obviously, in the movie, 00:50:30.789 --> 00:50:33.750 it's the country bears, but I know the voices. 00:50:34.190 --> 00:50:37.489 And Don Henley and Bonnie Raitt, I know for sure, 00:50:37.489 --> 00:50:40.190 made cameos in the movie. I'm not 100 % sure 00:50:40.190 --> 00:50:42.750 about Colin. I think he did, but it's been a 00:50:42.750 --> 00:50:44.389 long time since we've seen the movie. But the 00:50:44.389 --> 00:50:46.929 soundtrack. Hearing all those voices together 00:50:46.929 --> 00:50:49.590 is a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful song. 00:50:50.230 --> 00:50:52.670 And I mean, John Hyatt's one of the greatest 00:50:52.670 --> 00:50:57.269 songwriters ever, period. Yeah, so I got to admit, 00:50:57.389 --> 00:51:00.610 this one wasn't on my radar. That was right around 00:51:00.610 --> 00:51:02.949 the time that I had left New York City to go 00:51:02.949 --> 00:51:06.730 back to Syracuse post 9 -11. And, you know, and 00:51:06.730 --> 00:51:09.510 the medical problems my dad was having. So, you 00:51:09.510 --> 00:51:12.349 know, there was right before the time where I 00:51:12.349 --> 00:51:16.550 met my wife and my stepdaughter. So, right. Just 00:51:16.550 --> 00:51:18.610 missed it. Just missed it. But the soundtrack 00:51:18.610 --> 00:51:24.619 is fan. Fantastic. So I'll be honest, Christopher 00:51:24.619 --> 00:51:27.900 Walken's the big bad in the movie. So it's definitely 00:51:27.900 --> 00:51:31.119 worth a watch if you want something that's, you 00:51:31.119 --> 00:51:32.960 know, it's made for kids, but there's a lot of 00:51:32.960 --> 00:51:35.079 wink, wink, nudge, nudges to the adults in it. 00:51:35.179 --> 00:51:37.820 And if you're a music fan, a lot of fun cameos 00:51:37.820 --> 00:51:39.780 that really kind of put a smile, at least on 00:51:39.780 --> 00:51:42.699 my face. Right, right. Yeah. I mean, love Bonnie 00:51:42.699 --> 00:51:45.079 Raitt, love Don Henley. Of course, John Hyatt, 00:51:45.099 --> 00:51:48.119 love Colin A. So you can't go wrong with that 00:51:48.119 --> 00:51:50.880 for sure. Yeah, fictitional supergroup, so to 00:51:50.880 --> 00:51:55.380 speak. Well, let's see. You put that down. That's 00:51:55.380 --> 00:51:57.860 kind of a reset point. I think I'm going to... 00:51:57.860 --> 00:51:59.679 Oh, come on. You're telling me butter on a Pop 00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:05.460 -Tart wasn't a reset? Fair. Valid. But then again, 00:52:05.559 --> 00:52:07.739 so was the Cantina song. Yeah, right? It's been 00:52:07.739 --> 00:52:09.880 just nothing but resets here. Yeah, I think we're 00:52:09.880 --> 00:52:11.699 all over the place. All right. You know what? 00:52:11.739 --> 00:52:13.440 It hasn't been mentioned, and I think we need 00:52:13.440 --> 00:52:17.679 to talk about... Bill S. Preston Esquire and 00:52:17.679 --> 00:52:21.980 Ted Theodore Logan as wild stallions and be excellent 00:52:21.980 --> 00:52:24.900 to each other. The song that saved the world. 00:52:25.119 --> 00:52:27.579 Thank God it wasn't the song at the end of Bill 00:52:27.579 --> 00:52:29.719 and Ted's Excellent Adventure, because that was 00:52:29.719 --> 00:52:32.179 when George Carlin said they do get better. They 00:52:32.179 --> 00:52:38.139 do get better. Maybe we should practice. I'll 00:52:38.139 --> 00:52:42.039 be honest. I wasn't blown away by Bill and Ted's 00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:44.800 Face the Music, but I didn't hate it. Right. 00:52:45.289 --> 00:52:48.949 It wasn't a bad movie. It was, again, we've talked 00:52:48.949 --> 00:52:52.269 about it several times, that long delay between 00:52:52.269 --> 00:52:56.050 sequels. There was just no way for it to reach 00:52:56.050 --> 00:52:58.550 the heights of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure 00:52:58.550 --> 00:53:02.070 and Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. That was a 00:53:02.070 --> 00:53:04.849 lightning in a bottle movie and sequel. They 00:53:04.849 --> 00:53:07.550 did the best they could and made a fun movie. 00:53:08.059 --> 00:53:10.179 But at the end of the day, it's really hard to 00:53:10.179 --> 00:53:13.039 reach such stratospheric bars. And there's already 00:53:13.039 --> 00:53:16.019 talk about the Goonies getting a sequel. Yeah. 00:53:16.460 --> 00:53:21.679 I don't know. I wouldn't do that. Even if you 00:53:21.679 --> 00:53:24.780 do the whole they're the adults this time. I 00:53:24.780 --> 00:53:28.480 mean, maybe there's a maybe there's a way to 00:53:28.480 --> 00:53:31.300 that the adults recapture their youth through 00:53:31.300 --> 00:53:34.900 another adventure. I mean. I think about the 00:53:34.900 --> 00:53:37.599 Muppets 2011 movie and they were able to pull 00:53:37.599 --> 00:53:41.159 off that plot point with Walter, the Muppet. 00:53:41.260 --> 00:53:44.139 So maybe the Goonies can do that. I'll be very 00:53:44.139 --> 00:53:46.980 curious, but I have pause. Love the fact that 00:53:46.980 --> 00:53:48.860 you went with wild stallions because yeah, I 00:53:48.860 --> 00:53:52.280 mean, come on, put them in the Iron Maiden. Iron 00:53:52.280 --> 00:53:57.739 Maiden. Excellent. All right. Okay. So you went 00:53:57.739 --> 00:54:01.539 with an all times world saving song. We're down 00:54:01.539 --> 00:54:04.329 to our last picks. each for volume two. And you 00:54:04.329 --> 00:54:05.909 and I have now been, this is the longest we've 00:54:05.909 --> 00:54:07.929 ever recorded in all of our years recording together 00:54:07.929 --> 00:54:11.170 in one false stretch. Sans for the interview 00:54:11.170 --> 00:54:14.449 with Matthew Nelson of Nelson. I think that was 00:54:14.449 --> 00:54:18.349 the longest episode. These two episodes combined 00:54:18.349 --> 00:54:21.989 will equal our longest. And I ended episode one 00:54:21.989 --> 00:54:25.809 with a song from the Blues Brothers. And I followed 00:54:25.809 --> 00:54:27.889 up your Eddie and the Cruisers pick with Eddie 00:54:27.889 --> 00:54:30.579 and the Cruisers 2. So I'm going to use that 00:54:30.579 --> 00:54:33.900 same kind of mindset and close my fictitional 00:54:33.900 --> 00:54:37.039 band picks for the night with what I feel might 00:54:37.039 --> 00:54:41.420 be the greatest fictional band ever, ever, ever. 00:54:41.920 --> 00:54:45.320 And it's from the sequel to the Blues Brothers, 00:54:45.579 --> 00:54:50.920 the oft maligned Blues Brothers 2000. But I am 00:54:50.920 --> 00:54:55.179 going to go with the Louisiana Gator Boys. Very 00:54:55.179 --> 00:54:59.559 nice. Otherwise known. As Jeff Skunk Baxter, 00:54:59.719 --> 00:55:04.579 Gary U .S. Bonds, Eric Clapton, Clarence Clemens, 00:55:04.780 --> 00:55:10.699 Don Dejanette, Bo Diddley, Isaac Hayes, Dr. John, 00:55:11.019 --> 00:55:15.960 Charlie Musselwhite, Billy Preston, Lou Rawls, 00:55:16.000 --> 00:55:21.639 Joshua Redman, Paul Schaefer, Coco Taylor, Travis 00:55:21.639 --> 00:55:28.510 Tritt, Jimmy Vaughn. grover washington yeah grover 00:55:28.510 --> 00:55:33.610 washington jr willie weeks steve winwood and 00:55:33.610 --> 00:55:39.429 as malvern gasperson bb king on vocals and guitar 00:55:39.429 --> 00:55:43.690 doing bb's classic hit how blue can you get can 00:55:43.690 --> 00:55:47.840 you get is it a cover song Is it a fictional 00:55:47.840 --> 00:55:52.400 band? Yes, because BB is known as Malvern Gasperson. 00:55:52.539 --> 00:55:56.380 So for the movie, he's fictional. Yes, it's him 00:55:56.380 --> 00:55:59.380 singing his original song, but I'm pulling the 00:55:59.380 --> 00:56:03.039 SpongeBob card once again. But I mean, come on. 00:56:03.099 --> 00:56:06.539 As a last pick of the night, this is a fictitional 00:56:06.539 --> 00:56:09.599 super group that I would have paid top dollar. 00:56:09.639 --> 00:56:12.579 Imagine being in that movie. The people that 00:56:12.579 --> 00:56:16.880 got to see that filming witnessed history. The 00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:19.739 movie is awful. I'm sorry. I don't trash things 00:56:19.739 --> 00:56:23.099 much. The movie is just an excuse to tie together 00:56:23.099 --> 00:56:26.800 these incredible musical segments. Yep. The first 00:56:26.800 --> 00:56:29.179 Blues Brothers movie is a masterpiece of a movie 00:56:29.179 --> 00:56:31.860 with a masterful soundtrack. Blues Brothers 2000 00:56:31.860 --> 00:56:34.460 is a masterful soundtrack tied together with 00:56:34.460 --> 00:56:39.039 a really tough to follow plot, if you can even 00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:42.599 call it that. But this scene, to be in that room, 00:56:42.940 --> 00:56:46.519 it's as they show the meme. With the hands up 00:56:46.519 --> 00:56:49.840 in the air of Martin Scorsese, absolute cinema. 00:56:50.340 --> 00:56:54.019 Yes, definitely. Definitely. I mean, you cannot. 00:56:54.860 --> 00:56:57.800 I laugh and say, you know, the Wu -Tang Clan, 00:56:57.920 --> 00:57:00.539 because when I saw them live, there's a gazillion 00:57:00.539 --> 00:57:03.400 people up on that stage. But you can't go wrong 00:57:03.400 --> 00:57:05.619 with the names that you just listed off. And 00:57:05.619 --> 00:57:09.929 that song is so good. And that version is so 00:57:09.929 --> 00:57:12.670 good. Like B .B. is still in his prime at that 00:57:12.670 --> 00:57:14.369 point. I mean, he was in his prime until the 00:57:14.369 --> 00:57:16.230 day he left this universe. Absolutely. Let's 00:57:16.230 --> 00:57:18.590 just be honest. No question. And that delivery, 00:57:18.789 --> 00:57:21.230 that performance is live. That wasn't a canned 00:57:21.230 --> 00:57:24.489 recording. Right. They did that on stage. That's 00:57:24.489 --> 00:57:27.630 the live recording on the soundtrack. And holy 00:57:27.630 --> 00:57:30.570 shit, what a jam. One of the greatest jam sessions 00:57:30.570 --> 00:57:32.949 I've ever witnessed. Definitely. Could have been. 00:57:33.010 --> 00:57:35.929 That is a great example of this would have been 00:57:35.929 --> 00:57:40.059 a better tour. than a movie. Um, and, and I think, 00:57:40.099 --> 00:57:42.239 you know, they did that right. They, they kind 00:57:42.239 --> 00:57:46.000 of did a tour with, uh, with Jim Belushi and 00:57:46.000 --> 00:57:48.460 Dan Aykroyd. And it kind of got together as the 00:57:48.460 --> 00:57:50.980 blues brothers, 2000, they put out an album, 00:57:51.079 --> 00:57:54.159 they did a tour. It was, and it's great, great 00:57:54.159 --> 00:57:56.639 closing pick for you. I love it. All right, dude, 00:57:56.820 --> 00:57:59.420 we are at the end of volume two, this two week 00:57:59.420 --> 00:58:03.800 back to back episode run. So many that are going 00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:07.099 to be left on the table. So many. There's a volume 00:58:07.099 --> 00:58:09.320 three coming, but I'm tired. I don't want to 00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:13.139 record it today. No, we'll do it later. But I 00:58:13.139 --> 00:58:15.539 want to go with something that I am going to 00:58:15.539 --> 00:58:20.119 be sure that very few people know. Oh, that's 00:58:20.119 --> 00:58:21.900 good. Give something that nobody cares about 00:58:21.900 --> 00:58:24.440 for the end. Yes, but it is going. I'm ending 00:58:24.440 --> 00:58:27.780 this on the most epic note ever, and it's going 00:58:27.780 --> 00:58:32.519 to be a song composed 40 % by the drummer Carl 00:58:32.519 --> 00:58:35.809 Burnett. 40 % by the lead guitarist Franklin 00:58:35.809 --> 00:58:41.489 Frank Enya, contributing another 40%. And 20%, 00:58:41.489 --> 00:58:45.030 the sweet, sweet 20%, written by keyboard player 00:58:45.030 --> 00:58:49.690 William Billy Red J. Regan. They form B -E -R, 00:58:50.010 --> 00:58:54.090 and the song The Night Begins to Shine. Are you 00:58:54.090 --> 00:58:58.389 talking about Teen Titans? Teen Titans Go, where 00:58:58.389 --> 00:59:06.329 Cyborg transforms into Optimus Prime. The single 00:59:06.329 --> 00:59:10.929 stupidest cartoon. Again, it's one of those things 00:59:10.929 --> 00:59:13.389 where it's right up my alley, like so many pop 00:59:13.389 --> 00:59:15.869 cultural references for the adults to kind of 00:59:15.869 --> 00:59:18.690 take in, but dumb enough for the kids to just 00:59:18.690 --> 00:59:21.170 cackle. And they're like, why is he turning into 00:59:21.170 --> 00:59:23.530 a white truck? Like, what's going on? This is 00:59:23.530 --> 00:59:26.619 the coolest thing in the world. And it gets stuck 00:59:26.619 --> 00:59:29.119 in everybody's head and they try to destroy the 00:59:29.119 --> 00:59:31.880 tape and it just crushes Cyborg and he can't 00:59:31.880 --> 00:59:35.719 go on till they bring it back. It's so great. 00:59:36.059 --> 00:59:39.280 I am so glad you went with that. My kids went 00:59:39.280 --> 00:59:41.719 nuts for Teen Titans. They both had their phase. 00:59:41.760 --> 00:59:45.340 And what a fun way to close this, dude. Bravo, 00:59:45.460 --> 00:59:48.329 because I did not have that on my list. which 00:59:48.329 --> 00:59:50.210 means you didn't scoop me on another one. So 00:59:50.210 --> 00:59:52.949 from a personal standpoint, I've still got plenty 00:59:52.949 --> 00:59:55.050 of picks for a volume three. So thank you for 00:59:55.050 --> 00:59:59.750 that. Woo.
