WEBVTT 00:00:10.949 --> 00:00:13.789 Welcome to My Weekly Mixtape, a podcast that 00:00:13.789 --> 00:00:16.710 takes the classic mixtape approach to building 00:00:16.710 --> 00:00:19.329 a modern playlist. I'm your host, Brian Colburn. 00:00:19.530 --> 00:00:22.170 This week, to celebrate the 100th episode of 00:00:22.170 --> 00:00:25.250 My Weekly Mixtape, I'm continuing to create the 00:00:25.250 --> 00:00:28.230 ultimate mixtape, where today I will reveal songs 00:00:28.230 --> 00:00:31.649 21 through 40. So if you missed episode 100, 00:00:32.009 --> 00:00:34.130 you might want to pause this one and go back 00:00:34.130 --> 00:00:37.159 and listen to that first. So you can both A, 00:00:37.340 --> 00:00:39.380 get an idea of what the hell I'm even talking 00:00:39.380 --> 00:00:42.380 about when I say the ultimate mixtape and B, 00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.240 to find out how the playlist got us to where 00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:47.920 we are right now. You can't watch The Empire 00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:50.679 Strikes Back without watching A New Hope or Star 00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:53.560 Wars as I refer to it. But I digress. A lot of 00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:55.939 this episode won't make sense unless you've already 00:00:55.939 --> 00:00:59.000 heard episode 100. But hey, maybe you're someone 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:01.399 who likes to live on the edge and could care 00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:03.640 less about continuity. So if that's the case, 00:01:03.700 --> 00:01:07.019 party on, Wayne. But before we start diving into 00:01:07.019 --> 00:01:09.739 the songs, if you like what you've heard on my 00:01:09.739 --> 00:01:12.680 weekly mixtape across the last 100 episodes, 00:01:12.980 --> 00:01:15.120 you can help me out by either telling a friend 00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:17.670 about the show. leaving the show a five -star 00:01:17.670 --> 00:01:20.189 review wherever you're tuning in, or becoming 00:01:20.189 --> 00:01:23.870 a Patreon mixtaper at patreon .com forward slash 00:01:23.870 --> 00:01:27.329 myweeklymixtape.

Now, before we get started, 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:48.500 I'm going to spoil one song from Volume 1, the 00:01:48.500 --> 00:01:51.579 song that was the cliffhanger that ended the 00:01:51.579 --> 00:01:54.840 first of this trilogy of episodes. But first, 00:01:54.939 --> 00:01:57.959 I'll remind everyone of the question that fuels 00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:02.019 all of these 65 various answers. And that question 00:02:02.019 --> 00:02:05.400 is, if you had to choose one song for the ultimate 00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:09.500 mixtape, any song, any genre, that would be locked 00:02:09.500 --> 00:02:12.060 away in a time capsule for others to discover, 00:02:12.669 --> 00:02:16.129 Years or decades from now, which song would you 00:02:16.129 --> 00:02:20.150 choose and why? Closing out side B of Volume 00:02:20.150 --> 00:02:24.150 1 was the cult's She -Cell Sanctuary, as provided 00:02:24.150 --> 00:02:27.710 by Robin Wilson of the Jim Blossoms. So the first 00:02:27.710 --> 00:02:31.409 song of Volume 2 should, in theory, come out 00:02:31.409 --> 00:02:34.810 of that song and at least make some musical sense. 00:02:35.289 --> 00:02:38.449 And after scrolling through this list of songs 00:02:38.449 --> 00:02:42.620 several times, I think I found... something that 00:02:42.620 --> 00:02:45.500 works. And we're going to start with Ben Checkness 00:02:45.500 --> 00:02:49.340 of the Too Vague podcast as he provides his pick 00:02:49.340 --> 00:02:53.039 for the ultimate mixtape. Hello, Brian. Hello, 00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:56.219 fellow mixtapers. This is Ben Checkness from 00:02:56.219 --> 00:02:59.979 the Too Vague podcast. My pick for the ultimate 00:02:59.979 --> 00:03:05.340 mixtape is Cat People by David Bowie with music 00:03:05.340 --> 00:03:09.669 by Giorgio Morador. He made the music for this 00:03:09.669 --> 00:03:14.090 song and the rest of the Cat People movie from 00:03:14.090 --> 00:03:17.289 1982. David Bowie was brought on to bring the 00:03:17.289 --> 00:03:21.409 lyrics, and it's a very haunting sort of song. 00:03:21.789 --> 00:03:24.490 The reason I picked it for the Ultimate Mixtape 00:03:24.490 --> 00:03:27.569 kind of has to do with the reason why I started 00:03:27.569 --> 00:03:30.590 the podcast. Cat People was one of my father's 00:03:30.590 --> 00:03:33.349 favorite movies. And one of the reasons why I 00:03:33.349 --> 00:03:37.930 started my show was to share stories and my love 00:03:37.930 --> 00:03:40.710 of video games, sort of in honor of my father. 00:03:40.949 --> 00:03:43.610 So that is kind of the reason why I want to put 00:03:43.610 --> 00:03:47.050 it in the Ultimate Mixtape. Plus, it's David 00:03:47.050 --> 00:03:49.289 Bowie. I mean, you can't go wrong with anything 00:03:49.289 --> 00:03:52.150 sung by David Bowie. He just has an amazing voice. 00:03:52.650 --> 00:03:55.669 So that is sort of the reason it's honoring my 00:03:55.669 --> 00:03:59.030 father. He's been gone for four years now. But 00:03:59.030 --> 00:04:01.729 every time I do the show, I think about him and 00:04:01.729 --> 00:04:04.650 he kind of is sort of an inspiration to continue 00:04:04.650 --> 00:04:07.430 the show. Maybe a sad reason. It's really not 00:04:07.430 --> 00:04:12.590 sad. I swear. Happy mixtaping. From 1982 soundtrack 00:04:12.590 --> 00:04:15.689 to Cat People, the song reached number 67 on 00:04:15.689 --> 00:04:19.009 the Billboard US Hot 100, number 13 in Canada, 00:04:19.189 --> 00:04:23.449 number 15 in Australia and number 26 in the UK. 00:04:23.629 --> 00:04:26.639 But even with all of that. It was a number one 00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:30.980 hit in Finland, New Zealand, Norway, and Sweden. 00:04:31.459 --> 00:04:34.620 Ben has been a guest on two episodes of My Weekly 00:04:34.620 --> 00:04:38.009 Mixtape, those being episode 31. the ultimate 00:04:38.009 --> 00:04:40.649 eighties and some seventies new wave classics 00:04:40.649 --> 00:04:44.750 playlist and episode 49, the ultimate billboard 00:04:44.750 --> 00:04:47.610 number one hits of the eighties playlist. So 00:04:47.610 --> 00:04:50.170 be sure to check those out. And if you're a gamer, 00:04:50.189 --> 00:04:52.610 be sure to check out what Ben's doing over on 00:04:52.610 --> 00:04:57.129 the two vague that's T W O vague podcast, by 00:04:57.129 --> 00:05:00.589 the way, as I was a guest on his, wait for it. 00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:04.379 Mixtape episode. That was an extremely fun discussion. 00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:06.920 And I even got to get a little bit of my gamer 00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:11.600 geek on in that one. So following up David Bowie's 00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.339 Cat People, I'm actually going to move ahead 00:05:15.339 --> 00:05:18.720 a couple of decades and bring in Leah from the 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:22.180 Struts Life podcast and her choice for the ultimate 00:05:22.180 --> 00:05:26.139 mixtape. I have to choose. The Struts could have 00:05:26.139 --> 00:05:28.980 been me for two reasons. Nice. I co -host their 00:05:28.980 --> 00:05:31.569 show. And it's literally tattooed onto my body. 00:05:32.129 --> 00:05:34.930 The song from the moment I heard it, it's just 00:05:34.930 --> 00:05:37.269 kind of been an anthem of my life. Like, I don't 00:05:37.269 --> 00:05:39.370 want to look back to anything that I maybe was 00:05:39.370 --> 00:05:42.009 too scared to do or too intimidated to do and 00:05:42.009 --> 00:05:45.550 say, hey, that could have been me. Why not try 00:05:45.550 --> 00:05:48.250 it and see if it works out? And so that's just 00:05:48.250 --> 00:05:51.500 how I aim to live my life. The first single from 00:05:51.500 --> 00:05:54.860 their 2014 debut studio album, Everybody Wants. 00:05:54.939 --> 00:05:58.060 The song hit number four on the US rock airplay 00:05:58.060 --> 00:06:01.339 charts and number two on the Canada rock charts. 00:06:01.420 --> 00:06:04.959 I actually discovered The Struts in 2015 when 00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:07.879 their EP Have You Heard, which also features 00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:10.720 Could Have Been Me, dropped in the US and started 00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:14.660 making waves. And it was the 2016 re -release. 00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.879 of Everybody Wants here in the U .S. that completely 00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.839 solidified my fandom of this band. I had the 00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:24.899 chance to finally see them live in 2024, and 00:06:24.899 --> 00:06:27.639 really, no surprise here, this is the song they 00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:30.199 close with. This is the song that put them on 00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.699 the map, not only for me, but for many, many 00:06:32.699 --> 00:06:35.220 others. And I think it's awesome what Lee is 00:06:35.220 --> 00:06:37.899 doing over at The Struts Life, which is another 00:06:37.899 --> 00:06:40.800 Pantheon Podcast Network podcast, I should mention. 00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:44.120 Each week, she hosts a conversation with a different 00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:47.879 Struts member on a wide array of topics. So if 00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:50.259 you're a fan of the band, be sure to check out 00:06:50.259 --> 00:06:51.740 what she's doing over there because it's great 00:06:51.740 --> 00:06:54.839 stuff, including premiering new Struts music 00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:58.199 in the podcast itself. So be sure to check that 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:01.699 out. And recently, Leah broke away from Struts 00:07:01.699 --> 00:07:04.519 Talk for a couple hours. just to sit down with 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:08.100 me and help curate the ultimate 2024 country 00:07:08.100 --> 00:07:11.420 playlist, which is episode 97. If you want to 00:07:11.420 --> 00:07:13.500 check it out, because as a country fan myself, 00:07:13.660 --> 00:07:16.420 I think we put together in my humble opinion, 00:07:16.500 --> 00:07:21.019 an extremely fun yet eclectic representation 00:07:21.019 --> 00:07:24.360 of what 2024 had to offer the country scene. 00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:29.379 But with that, we've had some Bowie. We've had 00:07:29.379 --> 00:07:32.339 some struts. So I think I'm going to keep this 00:07:32.339 --> 00:07:35.800 rock vibe going, but I'm going to bring in a 00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:39.500 little bit of this alternative slash indie pop 00:07:39.500 --> 00:07:42.819 to the fold with this song choice from David 00:07:42.819 --> 00:07:48.740 Rosen of Piecing It Together. Hmm. Damn, that 00:07:48.740 --> 00:07:53.819 is a tough one. And there's so many. It's like, 00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:58.240 where am I narrowing it down? So I'm going to 00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:02.939 tell you my favorite thing One of my all -time 00:08:02.939 --> 00:08:05.379 favorite songs that I feel like doesn't get enough 00:08:05.379 --> 00:08:07.300 love, and I think that's the reason why I'm going 00:08:07.300 --> 00:08:11.060 to pick it and make it my choice here. It's a 00:08:11.060 --> 00:08:14.319 song called Gone Forever by the Ravenettes off 00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:17.660 of their album In and Out of Control. I believe 00:08:17.660 --> 00:08:20.879 that was 2009, I want to say. I forget the exact 00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:24.050 year, but this song just... We talk about these 00:08:24.050 --> 00:08:26.410 like vivid storytelling songs. It just paints 00:08:26.410 --> 00:08:28.910 such a picture. It's got one of the best guitar 00:08:28.910 --> 00:08:32.190 solos I've ever heard. And it's just got this 00:08:32.190 --> 00:08:35.789 vibe that is just so damn cool. And, you know, 00:08:35.789 --> 00:08:37.590 I don't know if you're a Ravenettes fan at all. 00:08:37.730 --> 00:08:40.029 You know, they've had a few songs that kind of 00:08:40.029 --> 00:08:42.110 broke through, but they never quite got as big 00:08:42.110 --> 00:08:45.649 as I feel like they deserve to be. But this song, 00:08:45.649 --> 00:08:47.830 I think, is just the best thing that they've 00:08:47.830 --> 00:08:50.970 ever done. And sometimes I think of it as my 00:08:50.970 --> 00:08:54.149 favorite song, even though I'm a big Cure guy, 00:08:54.330 --> 00:08:57.269 a big Depeche Mode guy. I've got lots of other 00:08:57.269 --> 00:08:59.950 interests that are my favorite songs. But this 00:08:59.950 --> 00:09:02.029 one is kind of the one that I would want more 00:09:02.029 --> 00:09:03.970 people to check out because I feel like they 00:09:03.970 --> 00:09:07.269 don't get enough credit. And this song probably 00:09:07.269 --> 00:09:09.210 hasn't been heard by as many people as it should 00:09:09.210 --> 00:09:13.080 be. A promo -only single from their album In 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:15.299 and Out of Control. However, there was a video 00:09:15.299 --> 00:09:18.139 made for the song, so it's still a single but 00:09:18.139 --> 00:09:21.059 not officially released via the label. I think 00:09:21.059 --> 00:09:24.080 David hit the nail on the head with the underrated 00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:27.179 discussion part of the Ravenettes. Hell, just 00:09:27.179 --> 00:09:30.120 by looking at the YouTube page for this video, 00:09:30.419 --> 00:09:33.320 it's comment after comment about how criminally 00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:36.080 underrated the band is, along with how brilliant 00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.809 this song is. And I have to agree. David was 00:09:39.809 --> 00:09:43.409 a guest on episode 81, the ultimate songs about 00:09:43.409 --> 00:09:47.210 guitars playlist, which was an extremely fun 00:09:47.210 --> 00:09:51.090 and varied musical discussion. We pulled out 00:09:51.090 --> 00:09:54.269 so many different genres for that one. So be 00:09:54.269 --> 00:09:56.470 sure to check that out and everything he's got 00:09:56.470 --> 00:10:00.330 going on over at Piecing It Together. But in 00:10:00.330 --> 00:10:03.409 order to keep this alternative rock pop indie 00:10:03.409 --> 00:10:06.259 kind of vibe going. I think I'm going to have 00:10:06.259 --> 00:10:08.279 to turn the mic over to Manny at the nostalgia 00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:11.899 test to provide his song choice for the ultimate 00:10:11.899 --> 00:10:14.679 mixtape. All right, I'm going to go with the 00:10:14.679 --> 00:10:17.299 first thought I had. Mr. Brightside by The Killers. 00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:20.580 I've seen these guys live several times and I've 00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:23.320 seen them in big arenas, like Madison Square 00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:26.320 Garden. And they are, if you've never seen them 00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:29.500 live, what a rock, like that's like our generations 00:10:29.500 --> 00:10:33.659 or like my generation is like. rock band. They 00:10:33.659 --> 00:10:37.759 know how to entertain. Brandon Flowers is a fantastic 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.460 entertainer. I felt like I was in a room with 00:10:40.460 --> 00:10:42.740 just him. I didn't feel like I was... They do 00:10:42.740 --> 00:10:45.159 not get swallowed up by Madison Square Garden. 00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:48.899 They swallow Madison Square Garden up. And I 00:10:48.899 --> 00:10:51.779 just think they're one of the best performing 00:10:51.779 --> 00:10:54.159 bands. And I hope that they're all going to be 00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:56.620 performing. I want to see them like Aerosmith, 00:10:56.700 --> 00:11:00.039 go that long. Or like, I'm seeing Brandon Flowers 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:04.259 when I'm 70 years old. From their 2000 debut 00:11:04.259 --> 00:11:07.360 album, Hot Fuss, the song reached number 10 on 00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:10.600 the US Billboard Hot 100 and UK Singles Chart, 00:11:10.759 --> 00:11:14.559 number 5 on the Canada Rock Top 30, number 29 00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:18.679 in Australia, and number 15 in New Zealand. Rolling 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:21.519 Stone ranked at number 48 in their list of the 00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:24.860 100 best songs of the 2000s. Pitchfork Media 00:11:24.860 --> 00:11:28.080 ranked at number 72 on their list of the top 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:32.080 500 tracks of the 2000s. And NME ranked at number 00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:36.899 116 in their list of the 500 greatest songs of 00:11:36.899 --> 00:11:41.340 all time. So wrap your mind around that one. 00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:44.860 Manny and Dan were both awesome guests on episode 00:11:44.860 --> 00:11:48.460 92, The Ultimate Nostalgia Playlist, which you 00:11:48.460 --> 00:11:51.080 have to admit is a very fitting topic given the 00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:55.039 name of their podcast. And looking down the list 00:11:55.039 --> 00:11:58.399 of songs at where we're at in the playlist, since 00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:00.600 I already know what Dan chose for his song as 00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:03.539 I've been scrolling this list up and down as 00:12:03.539 --> 00:12:05.840 we're going through this, I don't think it'd 00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:08.240 be too far -fetched to say that you'll be hearing 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:12.039 his pick a little bit later this evening. Pretty 00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:15.299 confident of that, so stay tuned. But next up, 00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:17.019 I actually think I have something that's going 00:12:17.019 --> 00:12:20.539 to both simultaneously bring us into the 80s, 00:12:20.539 --> 00:12:24.840 but keep the killer's vibe going that Manny brought 00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.200 to the table here, as Jamie DeTringo of The Seas 00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:31.600 provides his song choice for the ultimate mixtape. 00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:35.879 Wow. Without giving any thought, I'm going to 00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:40.629 just go with right now, NXS, Don't Change. off 00:12:40.629 --> 00:12:44.330 their first record i mean that song just gives 00:12:44.330 --> 00:12:47.210 me so much happiness i feel that every time that 00:12:47.210 --> 00:12:51.090 initial riff and synth parts i mean we keep on 00:12:51.090 --> 00:12:54.389 talking about we soundtrack the ending song in 00:12:54.389 --> 00:12:57.009 the eventual and sound uh movie which is fantastic 00:12:57.009 --> 00:13:01.049 i just love in excess so much that album's a 00:13:01.049 --> 00:13:04.429 banger of that track is is the best it just rules 00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:09.340 From 1982's Shabu Shuba, the song reached number 00:13:09.340 --> 00:13:12.240 17 on the Billboard U .S. Mainstream Rock Chart, 00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:15.679 number 80 on the U .S. Hot 100, and number 14 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:19.200 in Australia. The song's been covered by a ton 00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:21.799 of different groups, including Everclear, Face 00:13:21.799 --> 00:13:25.200 to Face, The Goo Goo Dolls, Limp Bizkit, Yeah 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:28.519 I'm Serious, among many others. InXS actually 00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:31.519 has, now that I think about it, several songs 00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:34.600 in their catalog that would work really well. 00:13:35.100 --> 00:13:37.580 for cover dive episodes of my weekly mixtape, 00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:40.899 so gotta put a pin in that one. But after doing 00:13:40.899 --> 00:13:44.000 an interview with Jamie for episode 58, the ultimate 00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:46.340 Billboard number one hits of the 90s playlist, 00:13:46.700 --> 00:13:49.440 and previewing some tracks from The C's debut 00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:53.080 album, Conversations With My Future Self, I could 00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:55.139 definitely hear the influence that Don't Change 00:13:55.139 --> 00:13:58.220 has on The C's music, and it's definitely worth 00:13:58.220 --> 00:14:02.419 checking out. But from here, I think I'm gonna 00:14:02.419 --> 00:14:04.970 keep going with... What's now shifting towards 00:14:04.970 --> 00:14:08.629 this 80s rock vibe as Matt Scannell of Vertical 00:14:08.629 --> 00:14:11.629 Horizon provides his song choice for the ultimate 00:14:11.629 --> 00:14:19.529 mixtape. I'm going to say Subdivisions by Rush. 00:14:21.330 --> 00:14:26.049 I feel like it's one of the greatest lyrics ever 00:14:26.049 --> 00:14:28.950 written. I feel like it's one of the greatest 00:14:28.950 --> 00:14:32.480 drum performances of all time. I feel like the 00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:37.659 music, the bed of music, the keyboards, the guitars, 00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:42.860 it's perfect. It's a perfect song from start 00:14:42.860 --> 00:14:46.899 to finish. And it's deeply, deeply, deeply meaningful. 00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:51.120 So, growing up in Worcester, Massachusetts, and 00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:53.860 I'm sure just like all around the country, certainly 00:14:53.860 --> 00:14:56.379 at that time, I grew up in the 70s and the 80s. 00:14:56.679 --> 00:15:00.320 And, you know, there were these clicks. In high 00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:02.960 school, and I'm sure it exists today, and you 00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:05.080 were either in or you were out. You were trying 00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:08.559 to be cool, but you weren't cool. You lived in 00:15:08.559 --> 00:15:11.840 the suburbs and you wanted to experience the 00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:15.799 heat of the city, the chaos of the city. You 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:20.940 were drawn to it like a moth to the flame. And 00:15:20.940 --> 00:15:25.799 it's a perfect song. And it should be on everybody's 00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:29.980 mixtape forever. From their 1982 album, Signals, 00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:31.860 the song reached number five on the Billboard 00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:34.820 Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart and number five 00:15:34.820 --> 00:15:38.159 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Classic 00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:40.840 Rock magazine ranked the song number six on their 00:15:40.840 --> 00:15:43.919 list of the 50 greatest Rush songs ever. And 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:46.419 Ultimate Classic Rock and Rolling Stone magazine 00:15:46.419 --> 00:15:50.059 ranked the song both nine and 10 respectively 00:15:50.059 --> 00:15:54.559 in their top 10 Rush song lists. Now, more importantly 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:57.080 than any of that, For the first time in this 00:15:57.080 --> 00:15:59.879 Ultimate Mixtape experiment, we have a duplicate 00:15:59.879 --> 00:16:03.059 band. Rush now becomes the first band to have 00:16:03.059 --> 00:16:06.080 two songs in the fold, as Red Barchetta was brought 00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:09.519 to the time capsule on Volume 1 by Steve from 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:12.519 Something for Nothing, a Rush fancast, and I'm 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:14.539 all but sure that he'll be happy to hear that 00:16:14.539 --> 00:16:17.580 news. Now before I move on to the next song, 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:19.779 I should also add, if you're a fan of Vertical 00:16:19.779 --> 00:16:23.299 Horizon, stick around for Volume 3 of the Ultimate 00:16:23.299 --> 00:16:26.039 Mixtape, which drops later this week. as I have 00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:28.159 a little bit of a tease for an upcoming episode 00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:30.879 that I think you're going to be interested to 00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:33.279 hear. So I'll just leave that there for now. 00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:36.460 But moving on from Rush, I think I'm going to 00:16:36.460 --> 00:16:39.700 slow it down a bit while still keeping the 80s 00:16:39.700 --> 00:16:43.340 alive, at least in spirit, with this choice from 00:16:43.340 --> 00:16:45.820 my good friend and former Toon Styles co -host, 00:16:46.019 --> 00:16:50.659 Jay Sweet. Oh, well, don't save the hardest question 00:16:50.659 --> 00:16:56.529 for last or anything. Good Lord. What? This should 00:16:56.529 --> 00:16:59.210 be easy for you. It's one song. How hard could 00:16:59.210 --> 00:17:03.269 it possibly be? Yeah, no, no pressure. The ultimate 00:17:03.269 --> 00:17:07.069 mixtape and my contribution thereof, which will 00:17:07.069 --> 00:17:10.250 either make me a hero, a musical hero, or it 00:17:10.250 --> 00:17:12.950 will ridicule me and ostracize me worse than 00:17:12.950 --> 00:17:17.430 Ang Lee's Hulk. No pressure. See, it's easy. 00:17:17.609 --> 00:17:21.690 No pressure. Well, let's see. I could go with 00:17:21.690 --> 00:17:23.730 some of my old standbys. If I could go with Journey. 00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:27.119 or REO Speedwagon, maybe some Van Halen, but 00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:29.680 I think those have probably been overly contributed. 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:34.380 All right, I have two I could go with. I could 00:17:34.380 --> 00:17:37.740 go with either David Glenn Isley's Sweet Victory, 00:17:37.980 --> 00:17:42.400 winner takes all, from the most famous by the 00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:47.480 SpongeBob SquarePants episode, Band Geeks, or 00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:50.619 I think I'm leaning more heavily towards the, 00:17:50.740 --> 00:17:53.019 we could go completely wild side, if you will. 00:17:53.420 --> 00:17:58.279 And I go with the Mark Wahlberg version of We 00:17:58.279 --> 00:18:00.059 All Die Young, which was originally recorded 00:18:00.059 --> 00:18:03.099 by Steelheart. And I believe was even on the 00:18:03.099 --> 00:18:05.740 movie soundtrack was written and recorded by 00:18:05.740 --> 00:18:09.059 Mike Matojevic. Is that what we're saying? Milanko? 00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:11.579 Matojevic, yes. But he goes by Mike? Yeah. I 00:18:11.579 --> 00:18:13.980 got to tell you, that guy's voice is insane. 00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:18.359 And I have these stratospheric idols that I love 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:21.419 in music. The guys with the higher voices. like 00:18:21.419 --> 00:18:23.880 Michael Sweet from Striper, also no relation. 00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:26.920 These voices, if I had a tenth of their talent 00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:28.960 right now, I would not be in Chicago, Illinois. 00:18:29.460 --> 00:18:32.819 I just want to point out, Jay, that you do realize 00:18:32.819 --> 00:18:36.140 that your friend Marky Mark, who did Wild Side, 00:18:36.220 --> 00:18:38.380 that's not him singing, right? You do know that? 00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:43.539 No. Lies. Lies. No, but like you said, that is 00:18:43.539 --> 00:18:46.880 Mike Matejevic, and the version on the Rockstar 00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:50.240 soundtrack is actually an all -star lineup. re 00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:52.640 -recording the original that was done by Steelheart. 00:18:52.819 --> 00:18:56.299 Yeah. It's Zach Wilde on guitar, Jason Bonham 00:18:56.299 --> 00:18:59.460 on drums, and Jeff Pilsen on bass. That's crazy. 00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:02.140 And the version on the Rockstar, of course, we're 00:19:02.140 --> 00:19:04.420 referring to the Rockstar soundtrack of the movie 00:19:04.420 --> 00:19:07.700 with Mark Wahlberg, Jennifer Aniston, and all 00:19:07.700 --> 00:19:10.359 of the aforementioned band members there. The 00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:13.480 original version was written by Matijevic for 00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:16.380 his mother who was dying from cancer. So I have 00:19:16.380 --> 00:19:18.660 a deep connection to that song as well. Because 00:19:18.660 --> 00:19:21.059 we went through that same thing together. And 00:19:21.059 --> 00:19:23.940 the version that, actually, that Steel Dragon 00:19:23.940 --> 00:19:27.779 recorded was a lot heavier and a little bit more 00:19:27.779 --> 00:19:31.420 up -tempo than the version on the Steelheart 00:19:31.420 --> 00:19:33.960 album. Is it Tangled in Rains that that is from? 00:19:34.059 --> 00:19:36.640 I don't remember. It's the opening track on Wait. 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:40.220 Of Wait. Yeah, that's the one. But that version 00:19:40.220 --> 00:19:42.440 is a little bit more mellow and a little bit 00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:45.589 less heavy, distorted Zach Wilde guitar. Yeah, 00:19:45.609 --> 00:19:47.990 there's definitely less squeals in that version. 00:19:48.390 --> 00:19:51.390 Well, there you go. That's my contribution. Rock 00:19:51.390 --> 00:19:53.250 out. Because again, like we talked about right 00:19:53.250 --> 00:19:56.349 early, early on, mixtapes to me, I associate 00:19:56.349 --> 00:19:58.950 with driving with road trips. So I think that 00:19:58.950 --> 00:20:01.349 that song, you know, because you also asked why 00:20:01.349 --> 00:20:04.150 I would choose that song. I think that that song 00:20:04.150 --> 00:20:07.990 really gets me in a mood to be able to drive 00:20:07.990 --> 00:20:10.549 and not deal with people hanging out in the left 00:20:10.549 --> 00:20:14.740 lane going 45 miles an hour. Originally recorded 00:20:14.740 --> 00:20:17.559 by Steelheart as the opening song on their 1996 00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:20.819 album, Wait, it was re -recorded by fictional 00:20:20.819 --> 00:20:24.680 band Steel Dragon for the 2001 film Rockstar. 00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:27.680 Featuring Steelheart vocalist Miljenko Manejevic 00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:30.740 on lead vocals, Zach Wild of Ozzy Osbourne and 00:20:30.740 --> 00:20:33.740 Black Label Society on lead guitar, Jeff Pilsen 00:20:33.740 --> 00:20:36.640 of Dokken and Farner on bass, and Jason Bonham 00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:39.119 on drums. So total super group for this movie. 00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:42.119 Absolutely love the song pick and the sentiment 00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:45.119 that Jay brings on his opinion of the song. I 00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:48.799 also want to thank Jay for the three and a half 00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:51.599 years that we did Tune Styles together. That 00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:55.539 really got me scratching the itch for this. podcasting 00:20:55.539 --> 00:20:58.380 thing, starting it back in 2017, having no idea 00:20:58.380 --> 00:21:01.380 if anybody was going to listen, putting out over 00:21:01.380 --> 00:21:05.180 80 episodes.

But as soon as we ended the show's run. 00:22:14.809 --> 00:22:17.049 All the original episodes disappeared, which 00:22:17.049 --> 00:22:19.269 was a total shame because I really wish they 00:22:19.269 --> 00:22:21.190 were all available online. But that's another 00:22:21.190 --> 00:22:24.890 problem for another time. With that, I'm going 00:22:24.890 --> 00:22:27.890 to slow it down some more and bring into the 00:22:27.890 --> 00:22:30.670 fold Trevor Dale of Album Divers as he provides 00:22:30.670 --> 00:22:34.569 his choice for the ultimate mixtape. All right. 00:22:34.609 --> 00:22:37.829 That is a good question, Brian. Let's see. I'm 00:22:37.829 --> 00:22:39.930 thinking, OK, I think what I want to do, because 00:22:39.930 --> 00:22:42.509 I'm feeling like maybe I'm sending this out into 00:22:42.509 --> 00:22:45.230 the universe. And kind of like the theme of our 00:22:45.230 --> 00:22:48.829 episode here, this might be a song that wouldn't 00:22:48.829 --> 00:22:51.549 be discovered otherwise. So I could very easily 00:22:51.549 --> 00:22:54.910 put a huge hit. I could put a Beatles song on 00:22:54.910 --> 00:22:56.890 there, something like that. But I feel like those 00:22:56.890 --> 00:22:59.849 are going to get mentioned. Those songs are going 00:22:59.849 --> 00:23:01.970 to get out there. So I feel like this is my chance 00:23:01.970 --> 00:23:04.549 to throw something in that I want the world to 00:23:04.549 --> 00:23:07.430 continue to have. So I'm going to put a Harvey 00:23:07.430 --> 00:23:10.269 Danger song on this list, but it's not going 00:23:10.269 --> 00:23:12.640 to be Flagpole Sitta. I'm going to put a song 00:23:12.640 --> 00:23:15.240 called Little Round Mirrors on this playlist. 00:23:16.180 --> 00:23:19.059 And the reason being, I won't get too deep into 00:23:19.059 --> 00:23:21.480 it here, but Little Round Mirrors is kind of 00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:23.779 a time capsule of an era because it represents 00:23:23.779 --> 00:23:27.339 a CD. And so, the whole song is about kind of 00:23:27.339 --> 00:23:30.519 getting lost in music. And the hole in the middle 00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:33.039 is the part that can never be filled. And so, 00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:36.019 it's about people like us, Brian, that are maybe 00:23:36.019 --> 00:23:39.339 a little too into music. You see reflection. 00:23:40.539 --> 00:23:42.059 But there's something missing in the middle. 00:23:42.500 --> 00:23:44.640 I don't know if that's entirely true because 00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:47.259 I think music fills that hole. But at the same 00:23:47.259 --> 00:23:49.420 time, there are times when the rabbit hole takes 00:23:49.420 --> 00:23:52.079 me a little too deep. Sean Nelson from Harvey 00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:55.200 Danger puts that to words like nobody else can. 00:23:55.319 --> 00:23:57.359 So I think that song has to be out there. I'm 00:23:57.359 --> 00:23:59.779 putting it on the list. And I could say with 00:23:59.779 --> 00:24:02.519 certainty that the void in the center for me 00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:06.150 is always filled by either my family. Music or 00:24:06.150 --> 00:24:09.589 my index finger is I'm switching CDs. So yeah, 00:24:09.650 --> 00:24:11.670 it's always going to be there, man. One of the 00:24:11.670 --> 00:24:14.549 two singles from their 2005 album, Little by 00:24:14.549 --> 00:24:17.470 Little, the other being Cream and Bastard's Rise. 00:24:17.710 --> 00:24:20.170 I'm kind of glad that Trevor went with Little 00:24:20.170 --> 00:24:23.150 Round Mirrors as it works much better at this 00:24:23.150 --> 00:24:25.609 point of the playlist. So a little selfish reason 00:24:25.609 --> 00:24:28.369 there for myself. But Harvey Danger is one of 00:24:28.369 --> 00:24:30.730 those bands that people think Flagpole said. 00:24:31.339 --> 00:24:33.940 And that's it. But there's so much more to dig 00:24:33.940 --> 00:24:36.619 into on their 2000 album, King James Version 00:24:36.619 --> 00:24:39.579 and Little by Little. I think you'll be surprised 00:24:39.579 --> 00:24:42.259 when you go down this really fun musical rabbit 00:24:42.259 --> 00:24:45.480 hole. Now, Trevor was a guest on episode 82, 00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:48.980 the ultimate 90s one hit wonders playlist. And 00:24:48.980 --> 00:24:50.839 if you'd like to hear more from album divers, 00:24:51.140 --> 00:24:53.680 be sure to check out their episode where they, 00:24:53.680 --> 00:24:57.880 ahem, dive into Little by Little with Sean Nelson. 00:24:58.410 --> 00:25:01.210 the lead singer of Harvey danger. That's an absolutely 00:25:01.210 --> 00:25:03.509 excellent episode. And I'm looking forward to 00:25:03.509 --> 00:25:04.950 doing a little bit more with Trevor down the 00:25:04.950 --> 00:25:08.569 road. So stay tuned for that. But next, I think 00:25:08.569 --> 00:25:11.349 I'm going to keep this vibe going as Dan from 00:25:11.349 --> 00:25:13.910 the nostalgia test. Remember I mentioned that 00:25:13.910 --> 00:25:16.069 he'd be in this episode a little earlier. Well, 00:25:16.089 --> 00:25:19.410 here he is providing his song choice for the 00:25:19.410 --> 00:25:24.900 ultimate mixtape. Oh my God. All right. I'm just 00:25:24.900 --> 00:25:27.740 going to go with my first instinct because it's 00:25:27.740 --> 00:25:30.240 happening right now. I am like super happy and 00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:33.960 hopeful because of the Oasis reunion. And I'm 00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:36.519 hoping that it comes to the U .S. I'm putting 00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:39.039 in there a song that I absolutely love. And it's 00:25:39.039 --> 00:25:42.819 Cast No Shadow by Oasis off their What's the 00:25:42.819 --> 00:25:45.519 Story of Morning Glory album. Cast No Shadow 00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.759 is quite possibly one of their best songs. And 00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:50.640 I love Oasis. And I'm hoping that they make it 00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:53.440 through this reunion, make it to the U .S. Well, 00:25:53.500 --> 00:25:56.900 as of this recording, there are U .S. dates scheduled, 00:25:57.019 --> 00:25:59.819 but whether the band makes the shows or not remains 00:25:59.819 --> 00:26:03.880 to be seen. However, an album cut from 1995's 00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:06.259 What's the Story, Morning Glory, I think it's 00:26:06.259 --> 00:26:07.940 kind of cool that the last two cuts have been 00:26:07.940 --> 00:26:10.839 almost deeper picks. And in the case of Oasis 00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:13.480 here, an album cut versus one of their bigger 00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:16.940 hits like Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova, or 00:26:16.940 --> 00:26:19.950 Don't Look Back in Anger. So being we're going 00:26:19.950 --> 00:26:22.309 with deeper cuts and we're in this kind of slower 00:26:22.309 --> 00:26:24.869 vibe here, I know exactly how we're going to 00:26:24.869 --> 00:26:27.829 close out Side A. And I'm going to bring in Kevin 00:26:27.829 --> 00:26:31.170 Brown of the Tom Petty Project to provide his 00:26:31.170 --> 00:26:34.549 song choice for the Ultimate Mixtape. Now, does 00:26:34.549 --> 00:26:37.529 Tom Petty become the second twofer of the Ultimate 00:26:37.529 --> 00:26:42.910 Mixtape? Let's find out. Oh, my God. Wow. That's 00:26:42.910 --> 00:26:46.730 a hell of a question. You know what? I will stick 00:26:46.730 --> 00:26:51.430 on brand. I will go with Petty. I'm going to 00:26:51.430 --> 00:26:55.529 go crawling back to you. I think that if I want 00:26:55.529 --> 00:27:00.069 to give someone petty at his height, at the height 00:27:00.069 --> 00:27:03.170 of his songwriting prowess, a band that could 00:27:03.170 --> 00:27:05.809 play a song in a million different ways and were 00:27:05.809 --> 00:27:08.069 never done with it, they were always kind of 00:27:08.069 --> 00:27:10.369 still building that song and still finding small 00:27:10.369 --> 00:27:13.309 ways to perfect it or change it or improve it. 00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:15.319 And something that's probably gonna be a little 00:27:15.319 --> 00:27:16.680 bit different because I'm sure if you're talking 00:27:16.680 --> 00:27:18.599 to different people for this collection, you're 00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:21.980 gonna get a lot of big hitting singles. I think 00:27:21.980 --> 00:27:24.839 that I'd like to have Crawling Back to You represent 00:27:24.839 --> 00:27:28.299 Tom Petty at a specific point in his life. The 00:27:28.299 --> 00:27:32.059 penultimate track on 1994's Tom Petty solo album, 00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:35.480 Wildflowers. When it comes to lyrics, the lines, 00:27:35.680 --> 00:27:38.940 I'm so tired of being tired. Sure as night will 00:27:38.940 --> 00:27:42.599 follow day. Most things I worry about never happen 00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:45.640 anyway. Man, those lyrics really hit home for 00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:49.660 me. Tom had such a way of making what he sang 00:27:49.660 --> 00:27:52.900 versatile enough that you could truly interpret 00:27:52.900 --> 00:27:55.339 it in so many different ways. And that's something 00:27:55.339 --> 00:27:59.599 I absolutely adore about his music and have for 00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:02.619 decades on end. Kevin was an incredible guest 00:28:02.619 --> 00:28:05.759 on episode 95, The Ultimate Tom Petty Playlist. 00:28:05.880 --> 00:28:08.420 And in that episode, we cover all things Tom 00:28:08.420 --> 00:28:11.460 Petty from The Heartbreakers to Mud Crutch. to 00:28:11.460 --> 00:28:14.059 the traveling Wilburys, to his guesswork, and 00:28:14.059 --> 00:28:16.980 his solo albums. So if you're a Petty fan, I 00:28:16.980 --> 00:28:18.980 highly recommend you check out that episode, 00:28:19.220 --> 00:28:21.619 as well as everything that Kevin's doing over 00:28:21.619 --> 00:28:25.039 at the Tom Petty Project. I'm pretty sure it's 00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:27.420 safe to say there'll be a volume two for Tom 00:28:27.420 --> 00:28:29.680 Petty coming down the My Weekly Mixtape road. 00:28:29.980 --> 00:28:32.859 Or should I say volume three is a wink, wink, 00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:35.640 nudge, nudge to all the hardcore Tom Petty fans 00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:37.619 out there that might get that reference. But 00:28:37.619 --> 00:28:40.839 I digress. because we only scratched the surface 00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:44.700 on Volume 1. But with that, Tom Petty becomes 00:28:44.700 --> 00:28:48.599 the second twofer on the Ultimate Mixtape, and 00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:52.380 that closes out Side A of the Ultimate Mixtape 00:28:52.380 --> 00:28:55.859 Volume 2, which consists of David Bowie, Cat 00:28:55.859 --> 00:28:58.700 People, Putting Out Fire, provided by Ben Checkness 00:28:58.700 --> 00:29:01.599 of the Too Vague Podcast, The Struts Could Have 00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:04.380 Been Me, provided by Leah Jones of The Struts 00:29:04.380 --> 00:29:07.400 Life, The Ravenettes, Gone Forever, provided 00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:10.579 by David Rosen of Piecing It Together.

Head 00:29:42.740 --> 00:29:45.220 over to MyWeeklyMixtape .com to hear all the 00:29:45.220 --> 00:29:47.980 songs we've discussed in this mix through the 00:29:47.980 --> 00:29:52.099 playlist embedded on the episode page. All right, 00:29:52.180 --> 00:29:55.579 now we're ready to dive into Side B for Volume 00:29:55.579 --> 00:29:59.279 2 of the Ultimate Mixtape. And to kick things 00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:02.759 off, I need to come up with a song. That properly 00:30:02.759 --> 00:30:05.279 comes out of my favorite artist of all time. 00:30:05.460 --> 00:30:08.160 Now that could easily be a pivot point for me 00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:10.539 to just go into some selfish fashion, but I'm 00:30:10.539 --> 00:30:13.589 doing this for everybody here. This is. all of 00:30:13.589 --> 00:30:17.269 our mixtape. So I am thinking strictly musical 00:30:17.269 --> 00:30:20.690 here. And now the last song on Side A was Tom 00:30:20.690 --> 00:30:23.869 Petty's Crawling Back to You. So I think the 00:30:23.869 --> 00:30:27.269 perfect song to come out of that with was chosen 00:30:27.269 --> 00:30:30.970 by Maurice Brzezinski of the Love That Album 00:30:30.970 --> 00:30:34.190 podcast. So let's hear his choice for the ultimate 00:30:34.190 --> 00:30:38.059 mixtape. Hey Brian, if I had to choose one song 00:30:38.059 --> 00:30:40.200 for the ultimate mixtape, it would be Wrapped 00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:43.579 in Grey by XTC. I'd come up with several possibilities, 00:30:43.779 --> 00:30:46.180 but Wrapped in Grey just won't leave my head. 00:30:46.400 --> 00:30:49.619 Most non -XTC fanatics may think of them as the 00:30:49.619 --> 00:30:52.299 band with great angular sounding pop songs of 00:30:52.299 --> 00:30:55.099 their early days, or for Dear God, or for the 00:30:55.099 --> 00:30:58.000 sublime Mare of Simpleton. Andy Partridge and 00:30:58.000 --> 00:31:00.240 Colin Moulding were songwriters of the highest 00:31:00.240 --> 00:31:03.000 caliber, but a great song doesn't work alone 00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:05.609 on paper. It has to have have a great arrangement 00:31:05.609 --> 00:31:08.349 played by sympathetic musicians. And no matter 00:31:08.349 --> 00:31:11.410 what they did, XTC always had well -thought -out 00:31:11.410 --> 00:31:13.930 arrangements to lift their songs. Like the Beatles, 00:31:14.089 --> 00:31:16.210 who they're often compared with, they were never 00:31:16.210 --> 00:31:18.670 going to repeat themselves. So early hits like 00:31:18.670 --> 00:31:21.250 Science Friction evolved to Making Plans for 00:31:21.250 --> 00:31:24.470 Nigel, evolved to Grass. They started out as 00:31:24.470 --> 00:31:26.829 part of the late 70s British New Wave movement, 00:31:26.890 --> 00:31:29.410 but like many other bands of their era, didn't 00:31:29.410 --> 00:31:32.049 want to be constricted to any one thing. By the 00:31:32.049 --> 00:31:34.930 early 90s, they released the magnificent Nonsuch 00:31:34.930 --> 00:31:37.269 album, which found their songs and arrangements 00:31:37.269 --> 00:31:40.029 at their most sophisticated, yet never sounding 00:31:40.029 --> 00:31:42.789 inaccessible. Wrapped in Grey is the pinnacle 00:31:42.789 --> 00:31:46.069 on that faultless album, to my ears anyway. Musically, 00:31:46.289 --> 00:31:48.589 Andy Partridge is trying to evoke the Beach Boys. 00:31:48.769 --> 00:31:51.150 The chord progressions sound deceptively simple, 00:31:51.349 --> 00:31:54.190 but are very cleverly crafted. There's melodies 00:31:54.190 --> 00:31:57.230 and falsetto counter melodies that make the hairs 00:31:57.230 --> 00:31:59.529 on the back of my arms stand up. There's tasteful 00:31:59.529 --> 00:32:02.569 string arrangements and I am - the word tasteful. 00:32:02.670 --> 00:32:05.450 It's never saccharine string arrangements. The 00:32:05.450 --> 00:32:08.309 song is a masterclass in dynamics with the verses 00:32:08.309 --> 00:32:11.309 being reserved and melancholy then swelling up 00:32:11.309 --> 00:32:14.309 appropriately to joy. Andy has always been a 00:32:14.309 --> 00:32:16.450 clever lyricist but this song is written with 00:32:16.450 --> 00:32:18.390 the heart more than with the head. The central 00:32:18.390 --> 00:32:20.509 message is there are people in the world who 00:32:20.509 --> 00:32:23.230 would drag us down into a pit of misery. Don't 00:32:23.230 --> 00:32:25.170 let them. Thematically it sounds like it could 00:32:25.170 --> 00:32:27.890 be twee and written by anyone but Andy Partridge 00:32:27.890 --> 00:32:30.130 has written a song that truly celebrates who 00:32:30.130 --> 00:32:33.069 we can be if we want to. The metaphor of the 00:32:33.069 --> 00:32:35.630 misery pedal is only using a palette of shades 00:32:35.630 --> 00:32:38.289 of grey. Are there 50 of them? Don't know. Those 00:32:38.289 --> 00:32:40.869 of us who want joy have a wider range of colours 00:32:40.869 --> 00:32:43.730 to use. In this often dark world, I try to make 00:32:43.730 --> 00:32:46.289 this song's declaration my mantra. Don't let 00:32:46.289 --> 00:32:48.890 the loveless ones sell you a world wrapped in 00:32:48.890 --> 00:32:51.349 grey. It is with that sense of positivity that 00:32:51.349 --> 00:32:53.829 I wanted to add this song to the ultimate mixtape. 00:32:54.329 --> 00:32:58.890 From 1992's Nonsuch, the song was initially slated 00:32:58.890 --> 00:33:02.670 to be the album's third single, but Virgin Records 00:33:02.670 --> 00:33:06.009 for some reason withdrew the initial pressings 00:33:06.009 --> 00:33:10.269 and it actually caused XTC to go on strike against 00:33:10.269 --> 00:33:13.230 Virgin until their contracts were terminated. 00:33:13.309 --> 00:33:17.529 So I'm not going to lie. XTC is a band that I 00:33:17.529 --> 00:33:20.549 really need to take a moment and dive deep into. 00:33:20.750 --> 00:33:23.210 I've heard so many great things about them over 00:33:23.210 --> 00:33:25.910 the years, especially what Morris was just talking 00:33:25.910 --> 00:33:28.089 about there. But they've kind of been a blind 00:33:28.089 --> 00:33:30.910 spot for me over the years. So thank you, Morris. 00:33:30.990 --> 00:33:34.250 With your pick, I'm going to remedy that in 2025. 00:33:35.049 --> 00:33:37.970 And also Morris's show, Love That Album Podcast 00:33:37.970 --> 00:33:41.549 is also available on the Pantheon Podcast Network. 00:33:41.849 --> 00:33:44.089 So be sure to check out what he's got going on 00:33:44.089 --> 00:33:47.150 over there. Looking forward to having him on 00:33:47.150 --> 00:33:49.569 the show at some point this year. We just need 00:33:49.569 --> 00:33:51.769 to work out the whole, you know, halfway across 00:33:51.769 --> 00:33:54.670 the world time issues first. But it's definitely 00:33:54.670 --> 00:33:58.210 going to happen. But next up, I'm going to keep 00:33:58.210 --> 00:34:03.089 this almost 80s pop slash synth vibe going with 00:34:03.089 --> 00:34:05.950 this song choice from friend of the show, Amy 00:34:05.950 --> 00:34:09.090 Spear. For this time capsule, I've gone with 00:34:09.090 --> 00:34:11.489 my favorite artist of all time, Phil Collins. 00:34:12.010 --> 00:34:14.469 I decided to pick a song from his solo career. 00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:17.440 So instead of going with the expected in the 00:34:17.440 --> 00:34:20.019 air tonight, I've decided to go with Take Me 00:34:20.019 --> 00:34:23.360 Home, a favorite of Phil's to sing live. And 00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:25.400 this song, I feel, is perfect for the capsule. 00:34:25.699 --> 00:34:28.460 I know that the song's lyrics are inspired by 00:34:28.460 --> 00:34:31.059 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, but I think 00:34:31.059 --> 00:34:33.500 for listeners, it carries a sense of longing. 00:34:34.079 --> 00:34:36.880 Whether it's for home or just something familiar, 00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:40.360 it's something most of us can connect with. It's 00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:45.309 also such a really well -crafted song. The instrumentals 00:34:45.309 --> 00:34:48.030 to Phil's powerful vocals and even backup vocals 00:34:48.030 --> 00:34:50.650 from Peter Gabriel and Sting. I mean, seriously, 00:34:50.849 --> 00:34:53.250 what's not to like? I can't help but belt out 00:34:53.250 --> 00:34:56.110 the chorus whenever this song comes on. So there 00:34:56.110 --> 00:34:58.369 it is, my choice for the capsule. Phil Collins, 00:34:58.590 --> 00:35:02.420 Take Me Home. The closing track to 1985's No 00:35:02.420 --> 00:35:05.320 Jacket Required, the song reached number seven 00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:08.400 on the U .S. Billboard Hot 100, number two on 00:35:08.400 --> 00:35:10.940 the Canadian Adult Contemporary Chart, number 00:35:10.940 --> 00:35:14.800 64 in Australia, number 19 in the U .K., and 00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:18.940 number 13 in Ireland. I'm so glad that Amy mentioned 00:35:18.940 --> 00:35:21.719 Peter Gabriel and Sting on those backing vocals 00:35:21.719 --> 00:35:24.400 because that's one of the first things I think 00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:27.500 of when I hear this song. It's such a unique 00:35:27.500 --> 00:35:31.400 sound, marrying their three voices together in 00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:34.860 this kind of Genesis meets the police musical 00:35:34.860 --> 00:35:38.380 connection. And if you're a country fan, in 2024, 00:35:38.539 --> 00:35:41.980 there was a cover of Take Me Home performed together 00:35:41.980 --> 00:35:45.539 by Little Big Town and Sugarland. That's, I think, 00:35:45.579 --> 00:35:49.059 really worth checking out. As in a fun coincidence, 00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:52.360 you get to hear Little Big Town and Sugarland 00:35:52.360 --> 00:35:55.800 harmonize and be the as far as I'm concerned, 00:35:55.920 --> 00:35:59.900 main sticking point of the song, just like Peter 00:35:59.900 --> 00:36:02.739 Gabriel and Sting were singing background vocals 00:36:02.739 --> 00:36:06.300 in Phil Collins' original. And I also want to 00:36:06.300 --> 00:36:09.400 thank Amy for the song choice, but more importantly, 00:36:09.599 --> 00:36:12.840 being such an incredible person in both my and 00:36:12.840 --> 00:36:15.719 my entire family's life. We love you and thank 00:36:15.719 --> 00:36:18.820 you for chiming in with your pick. And all right, 00:36:18.880 --> 00:36:22.280 we have this slow vibe going now, and there's 00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:24.960 kind of this... Strong and heartfelt message 00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:28.300 getting woven through. So I think this will flow 00:36:28.300 --> 00:36:32.340 nicely into this next tune that John Laurie of 00:36:32.340 --> 00:36:36.340 Tantric and Smile Empty Soul provided as his 00:36:36.340 --> 00:36:41.019 pick for the ultimate mixtape. The ultimate mixtape 00:36:41.019 --> 00:36:44.440 of all time. Is that what we're saying? All time. 00:36:44.639 --> 00:36:51.619 All genres. All songs. No pressure. No, no. No. 00:36:51.619 --> 00:36:55.500 Okay. All right. This is going to get deep, but 00:36:55.500 --> 00:36:59.059 this song is my all -time favorite song. I think 00:36:59.059 --> 00:37:00.960 it's a song that everybody should listen to, 00:37:01.059 --> 00:37:03.760 and I think it's a song that if you're just by 00:37:03.760 --> 00:37:06.159 yourself and you need a little bit of comfort, 00:37:06.300 --> 00:37:09.119 this song is perfect for that. It's I Won't Let 00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:12.420 You Go by Switchfoot. It's a song about unconditional 00:37:12.420 --> 00:37:16.659 love. It's beautiful lyricism. That's my favorite 00:37:16.659 --> 00:37:18.900 song of all time. That's what I would throw in 00:37:18.900 --> 00:37:21.780 the ring if it was ultimate playlist of all time. 00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:26.000 An album cut from 2016's Where the Light Shines 00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:28.579 Through. I really love the fact that we're getting 00:37:28.579 --> 00:37:31.760 songs from bands that are more or less household 00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:34.460 names, but they're not always the song you would 00:37:34.460 --> 00:37:38.570 immediately think of. This is a beautiful tune, 00:37:38.610 --> 00:37:40.670 and it actually shocks me that it wasn't released 00:37:40.670 --> 00:37:43.829 as a single. Between the string section and the 00:37:43.829 --> 00:37:46.429 falsetto vocals, I could totally hear this being 00:37:46.429 --> 00:37:50.530 a pop radio ballad in 2016. But I guess this 00:37:50.530 --> 00:37:53.230 will just have to make up for it, as it is now 00:37:53.230 --> 00:37:56.530 officially in the My Weekly Mixtape Ultimate 00:37:56.530 --> 00:37:59.789 Mixtape time capsule instead. Kind of wonder 00:37:59.789 --> 00:38:01.829 if that's worth reaching out and throwing on 00:38:01.829 --> 00:38:04.019 their Wikipedia page, because that... Kind of 00:38:04.019 --> 00:38:06.260 seems like a big deal, doesn't it? I think so. 00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:09.440 Anyway, John's been keeping insanely busy in 00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:12.699 2024, hitting the skins for Tantric, and he's 00:38:12.699 --> 00:38:15.280 doing the same for Smile Empty Soul as well. 00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:18.119 So if you see either of the bands in your area, 00:38:18.260 --> 00:38:20.659 be sure to check out their sets and say hi to 00:38:20.659 --> 00:38:22.900 John while you're there. John's been a guest 00:38:22.900 --> 00:38:25.960 several times over the last 100 episodes of My 00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:28.800 Weekly Mixtape. So just head to myweeklymixtape 00:38:28.800 --> 00:38:33.199 .com and search John Lurie. That's J -O -N Lurie 00:38:33.199 --> 00:38:35.360 to hear all the stuff he's done on the show. 00:38:35.579 --> 00:38:38.659 You're not going to be disappointed. But moving 00:38:38.659 --> 00:38:41.280 on, I think we're going to keep this chill quasi 00:38:41.280 --> 00:38:43.679 mellow vibe going. I don't think we're ready 00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:46.800 to pick it up just yet. Because next up, Jim 00:38:46.800 --> 00:38:49.579 Santora, author of the underrated rock book, 00:38:49.639 --> 00:38:52.690 provides his choice. for the ultimate mixtape. 00:38:53.250 --> 00:38:55.650 Brian, if I had to choose a song for the ultimate 00:38:55.650 --> 00:38:59.190 mixtape, and it may surprise some people, it's 00:38:59.190 --> 00:39:02.670 going to be If You Leave Me Now by the band Chicago. 00:39:03.579 --> 00:39:07.139 And the reason being, and just keep a short story 00:39:07.139 --> 00:39:10.920 here, so my brother and I used to play some baseball 00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:14.179 in the backyard, and my parents had an 8 -track 00:39:14.179 --> 00:39:17.539 boombox, like a one -speaker boombox, and we 00:39:17.539 --> 00:39:20.079 used to carry it out, and there were two 8 -tracks 00:39:20.079 --> 00:39:22.900 we always broke out, Elton John's Greatest Hits 00:39:22.900 --> 00:39:25.719 and Chicago 10. Now, mind you, I'm probably about 00:39:25.719 --> 00:39:31.119 9, 10 years old at this time. It's 1977, something 00:39:31.119 --> 00:39:35.860 like that. This song comes on when I hear it, 00:39:35.880 --> 00:39:38.760 everything stops. It's just such a great song. 00:39:38.980 --> 00:39:42.519 Peter Cetera's lyrics, you know, his vocal quality 00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:46.219 is just amazing. I think he's one of the best 00:39:46.219 --> 00:39:49.139 singers that I've ever listened to in my time. 00:39:49.500 --> 00:39:51.980 And the song is a classic and it's timeless. 00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:55.840 And if we're looking at putting any kind of song 00:39:55.840 --> 00:40:00.000 into a mixtape and putting it in a time capsule, 00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:04.849 in my opinion, That is my choice. So once again, 00:40:05.070 --> 00:40:10.469 it is Chicago. And if you leave me now. Reach 00:40:10.469 --> 00:40:13.750 number one on the Billboard US Hot 100 and also 00:40:13.750 --> 00:40:17.150 claim the top slot in Canada, Australia, the 00:40:17.150 --> 00:40:20.989 UK. Ireland, the Netherlands, and South Africa. 00:40:21.190 --> 00:40:24.230 As far as cover versions go, Boyz II Men lend 00:40:24.230 --> 00:40:27.829 their unmistakable harmonies to their rendition 00:40:27.829 --> 00:40:31.909 that was featured on the 2009 album Love. And 00:40:31.909 --> 00:40:34.349 Jim has been a friend of the show over the years. 00:40:34.389 --> 00:40:37.489 We've talked music all the way back on Tune Styles, 00:40:37.969 --> 00:40:41.389 Playlist Wars, and now on My Weekly Mixtape as 00:40:41.389 --> 00:40:44.630 he was a guest. all the way back at the show's 00:40:44.630 --> 00:40:48.250 origin, episode two, the ultimate 80s hard rock 00:40:48.250 --> 00:40:51.389 playlist. But fear not, Jim and I are working 00:40:51.389 --> 00:40:54.809 on a new episode as we speak, so be on the lookout 00:40:54.809 --> 00:40:57.889 for that one. And if you're a fan of music books, 00:40:58.090 --> 00:41:01.050 be sure to check out both the Underrated Rock 00:41:01.050 --> 00:41:04.150 Book and the Underrated Rock Book 2. I've read 00:41:04.150 --> 00:41:07.269 both of them, and they're a great way to dive 00:41:07.269 --> 00:41:10.210 into a lot of bands and albums that... May have 00:41:10.210 --> 00:41:13.190 and probably have fallen off your radar, but 00:41:13.190 --> 00:41:16.989 most certainly shouldn't have. All right, so 00:41:16.989 --> 00:41:21.650 now we've got this slow, mellow vibe going. And 00:41:21.650 --> 00:41:24.469 since I just mentioned Boyz II Men, now I've 00:41:24.469 --> 00:41:27.730 got this R &B and kind of blues vibe in my mind. 00:41:27.929 --> 00:41:32.789 And also, since Jim was just on, I have underrated 00:41:32.789 --> 00:41:36.110 swirling around in my mind. So I think what I'm 00:41:36.110 --> 00:41:38.809 going to do for my next song choice is check 00:41:38.809 --> 00:41:42.780 off. Both of those boxes, that R &B blues vibe 00:41:42.780 --> 00:41:47.260 and underrated. So with that, here's ZZ Ward's 00:41:47.260 --> 00:41:54.980 choice for the ultimate mixtape. Gosh. That is 00:41:54.980 --> 00:41:58.219 such a good question. I'm just trying to think 00:41:58.219 --> 00:42:04.019 of all the songs. Maybe Nina Simone, Be My Husband. 00:42:04.320 --> 00:42:07.260 I would throw that song in there. That song is 00:42:07.260 --> 00:42:11.079 like. So incredible and like such a different 00:42:11.079 --> 00:42:14.360 piece of music, you know, I mean, the way that 00:42:14.360 --> 00:42:17.760 I heard her play it was like drums and her singing. 00:42:18.559 --> 00:42:22.400 And the one thing about Nina Simone that I literally 00:42:22.400 --> 00:42:24.420 just was listening to her yesterday and thinking, 00:42:24.539 --> 00:42:27.539 I don't know how many singers I've heard saying 00:42:27.539 --> 00:42:32.880 that literally are talking to me about what they're 00:42:32.880 --> 00:42:35.840 going through when they're singing to me. She 00:42:35.840 --> 00:42:39.059 doesn't just. sing the song, she's telling you 00:42:39.059 --> 00:42:41.119 her struggle and she's telling you her pain. 00:42:41.760 --> 00:42:44.420 It's incredible. I mean, there's no one like 00:42:44.420 --> 00:42:46.340 Nina Simone. So I would say that I would say 00:42:46.340 --> 00:42:49.199 be my husband, Nina Simone. The opening track 00:42:49.199 --> 00:42:54.119 on her 1965 album, Pastel Blues. In 2008, Coke 00:42:54.119 --> 00:42:57.119 Machine Glow included it on the 30 other albums 00:42:57.119 --> 00:43:01.139 of the 1960s list. In 2012, Alicia Keys included 00:43:01.139 --> 00:43:04.920 it on her personal 25 favorite albums list. And 00:43:04.920 --> 00:43:09.230 in 2017, Pitchfork placed at number 21 on the 00:43:09.230 --> 00:43:13.449 200 best albums of the 1960s list. Now be sure 00:43:13.449 --> 00:43:16.369 to check out ZZ Ward's latest EP, Mother, because 00:43:16.369 --> 00:43:19.170 musically it's friggin' awesome. But you can 00:43:19.170 --> 00:43:22.530 also check out the album dive episode of My Weekly 00:43:22.530 --> 00:43:25.289 Mixtape, where ZZ joined me to talk about the 00:43:25.289 --> 00:43:28.469 stories behind all of the songs across the entire 00:43:28.469 --> 00:43:32.070 EP, including some new Sun Records versions of 00:43:32.070 --> 00:43:36.619 her hits from her 2012 debut, Till the casket 00:43:36.619 --> 00:43:39.019 drops, you really don't want to miss this one. 00:43:39.099 --> 00:43:42.519 If you haven't heard ZZ Ward, remedy that because 00:43:42.519 --> 00:43:47.760 you will be hearing her in 2025 for sure. Now, 00:43:47.780 --> 00:43:50.400 with that said, we have been on a bit of a mellow 00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:53.619 streak, and I think now I have the perfect song 00:43:53.619 --> 00:43:56.500 to ease us out of that and bring us into something 00:43:56.500 --> 00:43:59.860 a little bit more upbeat, especially given this 00:43:59.860 --> 00:44:02.480 song's intro as it starts off slow and kind of... 00:44:02.829 --> 00:44:05.789 takes you there. So with that, here's Elite Sound 00:44:05.789 --> 00:44:08.769 Entertainment's Doug Miller with his choice for 00:44:08.769 --> 00:44:14.710 the ultimate mixtape. Wow. Good questions. Okay. 00:44:18.110 --> 00:44:19.710 You know what? I'm not going to overthink it. 00:44:19.989 --> 00:44:21.650 I'm going to take something that's close to my 00:44:21.650 --> 00:44:24.269 heart. It kind of encompasses a lot of the songs 00:44:24.269 --> 00:44:26.809 that we've gone over through all the episodes 00:44:26.809 --> 00:44:29.829 that we've done together. So this is a one -hit 00:44:29.829 --> 00:44:34.820 wonder. This is a cover song. This is a song 00:44:34.820 --> 00:44:38.199 that's a smash in the genre that it's in. So 00:44:38.199 --> 00:44:41.559 I'm going to give you the song that I think just 00:44:41.559 --> 00:44:44.659 blows me away every time I hear it. I'm going 00:44:44.659 --> 00:44:48.019 to go with Thelma Houston, Don't Leave Me This 00:44:48.019 --> 00:44:53.940 Way. Oh. She is a disco queen. I have her right 00:44:53.940 --> 00:44:56.760 underneath Donna Summer. But this song was originally 00:44:56.760 --> 00:44:59.590 Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes. She did this 00:44:59.590 --> 00:45:05.110 her own way. Don't quote me, but I believe that 00:45:05.110 --> 00:45:08.849 she wasn't really being backed by the label and 00:45:08.849 --> 00:45:10.889 stuff when they did this. And I'm pretty sure 00:45:10.889 --> 00:45:12.630 she was like, I'm going to do this anyway because 00:45:12.630 --> 00:45:15.369 I'm telling you, this is a smash. And kind of 00:45:15.369 --> 00:45:19.369 forged her own way. And just, man, the pipes 00:45:19.369 --> 00:45:21.650 on that woman when she's hitting those high notes 00:45:21.650 --> 00:45:24.869 and just the emotion in that song. It's a great 00:45:24.869 --> 00:45:26.889 song. I know it's a disco song, but it plays. 00:45:27.320 --> 00:45:30.340 All times, all days, all parties. Gets everybody 00:45:30.340 --> 00:45:32.659 going. It's got a ton of heart and soul in it. 00:45:32.739 --> 00:45:35.619 And yeah, I think that that's something that 00:45:35.619 --> 00:45:38.219 anybody from any genre can appreciate. So I throw 00:45:38.219 --> 00:45:41.039 it on there. See what people think. The song 00:45:41.039 --> 00:45:43.420 reached number one on the Billboard US Hot 100, 00:45:43.639 --> 00:45:46.860 as well as in Belgium and South Africa. The song 00:45:46.860 --> 00:45:49.539 also reached number four in Canada, the Netherlands, 00:45:49.659 --> 00:45:52.800 and Sweden, number six in Australia, and number 00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:56.320 13 in the UK. And as Doug mentioned, it was a 00:45:56.320 --> 00:45:58.860 cover. So if you haven't heard Harold Melvin 00:45:58.860 --> 00:46:01.880 in the Blue Notes version, don't sleep on that 00:46:01.880 --> 00:46:05.059 one either. They're both killer tracks. Now, 00:46:05.099 --> 00:46:07.519 if you're looking for a DJ in the New York, New 00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:10.679 Jersey area, make sure to check out Doug at Elite 00:46:10.679 --> 00:46:13.320 Sound as he's a consummate professional. I've 00:46:13.320 --> 00:46:15.960 known him for decades, and he really knows how 00:46:15.960 --> 00:46:18.739 to read the room he's in to make sure everyone 00:46:18.739 --> 00:46:21.039 at the party's having a great time, no matter 00:46:21.039 --> 00:46:23.780 what age group you're dealing with. He was a 00:46:23.780 --> 00:46:27.639 guest on the very popular episode 69, the ultimate 00:46:27.639 --> 00:46:31.059 90s club and dance hits playlist. So if you want 00:46:31.059 --> 00:46:33.320 to hear a little bit more about where Doug is 00:46:33.320 --> 00:46:35.760 coming from. With his club and dance mindset, 00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:38.940 check out that episode. I promise you won't be 00:46:38.940 --> 00:46:41.880 disappointed. But now that we've got people up 00:46:41.880 --> 00:46:44.239 and dancing and probably feeling good after that 00:46:44.239 --> 00:46:47.340 one, let's keep that groove going with Jesse 00:46:47.340 --> 00:46:51.239 Dayton's choice for the ultimate mixtape. It 00:46:51.239 --> 00:46:56.539 could be any song? Any song, any genre. I'm not 00:46:56.539 --> 00:46:59.650 sure, Ben. I think it might be I'll Take You 00:46:59.650 --> 00:47:02.969 There by the Staples Singers. Ooh. The reason 00:47:02.969 --> 00:47:08.210 why is that's basically a gospel song, but it's 00:47:08.210 --> 00:47:11.929 also a rhythm and blues song. And it's got the 00:47:11.929 --> 00:47:14.809 South in it, and Pops is playing these cool little 00:47:14.809 --> 00:47:19.909 funky parts. And it's interracial. Like, if you've 00:47:19.909 --> 00:47:23.610 ever seen the documentary about the Swampers, 00:47:23.690 --> 00:47:28.329 it's amazing, that whole documentary. about like 00:47:28.329 --> 00:47:30.809 that was an interracial band it was like one 00:47:30.809 --> 00:47:34.230 of the first interracial bands the bass player's 00:47:34.230 --> 00:47:38.150 a white guy and uh boom boom boom boom boom boom 00:47:38.150 --> 00:47:41.829 all that stuff so i think it might be i'll take 00:47:41.829 --> 00:47:46.050 you there because that's kind of for me the best 00:47:46.050 --> 00:47:49.269 of what america had to offer and i think people 00:47:49.269 --> 00:47:52.289 heard that song whether they were into heavy 00:47:52.289 --> 00:47:54.789 rock guitar or rhythm and blues or whatever i 00:47:54.789 --> 00:47:58.059 think I think they would feel something no matter 00:47:58.059 --> 00:48:01.460 who they were. The song reached number one on 00:48:01.460 --> 00:48:04.519 the U .S. Billboard Hot 100, number 21 in Canada, 00:48:04.719 --> 00:48:08.199 number 30 in the U .K., and number seven in South 00:48:08.199 --> 00:48:12.519 Africa. Cover songs once again. In 1991, Bebe 00:48:12.519 --> 00:48:16.139 and CeCe Winans, featuring Mavis Staples, took 00:48:16.139 --> 00:48:18.840 their version of the song to number one on the 00:48:18.840 --> 00:48:21.980 U .S. R &B chart and number 90 on the Billboard 00:48:21.980 --> 00:48:26.019 U .S. Hot 100. Then, a few years later, in 94, 00:48:26.500 --> 00:48:29.219 General Public released another cover of the 00:48:29.219 --> 00:48:31.880 song. This was from the movie Threesome, and 00:48:31.880 --> 00:48:35.480 that hit number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 and 00:48:35.480 --> 00:48:39.619 number 38 in Canada. And finally, while not charting, 00:48:39.659 --> 00:48:42.579 Sammy Hagar and the Wobberitas covered it on 00:48:42.579 --> 00:48:45.139 their Livin' It Up album. I actually really like 00:48:45.139 --> 00:48:49.230 that version as well. Jesse is such an amazingly 00:48:49.230 --> 00:48:52.190 talented musician. He was my guest for episode 00:48:52.190 --> 00:48:56.010 70, the ultimate guitar solos playlist. And if 00:48:56.010 --> 00:48:58.849 you want to hear someone who takes guitar solo 00:48:58.849 --> 00:49:02.469 talk seriously and goes with all different genres 00:49:02.469 --> 00:49:06.050 and musical mindsets. This is the episode for 00:49:06.050 --> 00:49:08.809 you. There's a little bit of something for every 00:49:08.809 --> 00:49:11.929 music fan in this discussion. And Jesse truly 00:49:11.929 --> 00:49:15.829 is. While an incredibly gifted musician, he's 00:49:15.829 --> 00:49:18.530 also an incredibly passionate fan. And it comes 00:49:18.530 --> 00:49:22.329 out in that episode. But now look, we're up and 00:49:22.329 --> 00:49:24.630 still moving at this point. So we're going to 00:49:24.630 --> 00:49:27.070 keep the party going. But I'm going to slow it 00:49:27.070 --> 00:49:28.889 down and go with something a little bit smoother. 00:49:29.210 --> 00:49:33.920 With Sherry Thomas of the Aquarians pick. Wow, 00:49:35.099 --> 00:49:38.239 that's a difficult question. And I'd have 800 00:49:38.239 --> 00:49:41.960 songs that I would put into that category. But 00:49:41.960 --> 00:49:47.699 there can only be one for me. And that would 00:49:47.699 --> 00:49:54.780 be Prince and Money Don't Matter Tonight. Prince 00:49:54.780 --> 00:49:59.880 is my all -time favorite artist. And that song 00:49:59.880 --> 00:50:08.250 is... Everything to me, the context, the structure, 00:50:08.530 --> 00:50:14.110 everything. It's perfect to me. From 1991's Diamonds 00:50:14.110 --> 00:50:16.590 and Pearls, the song reached number 23 on the 00:50:16.590 --> 00:50:20.010 Billboard US Hot 100, number 19 in Canada and 00:50:20.010 --> 00:50:23.289 the UK, number 18 in Australia and number seven 00:50:23.289 --> 00:50:25.909 in the Netherlands. Now, remember, this was the 00:50:25.909 --> 00:50:28.690 fifth of seven singles from Diamonds and Pearls. 00:50:29.119 --> 00:50:31.699 I know everyone talks about Purple Rain as a 00:50:31.699 --> 00:50:34.500 popular Prince album, but you kind of can't forget 00:50:34.500 --> 00:50:36.599 this monster as well. I know it's two different 00:50:36.599 --> 00:50:40.000 eras for Prince, but both were just massive in 00:50:40.000 --> 00:50:42.719 completely different ways. Now, going back to 00:50:42.719 --> 00:50:45.480 Sherry, she is such a wonderful, delightful human 00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:47.920 being, a hell of a writer over at The Aquarian. 00:50:48.139 --> 00:50:50.420 I've been a fan of that magazine for decades. 00:50:51.260 --> 00:50:53.559 pretty much my Bible back in high school and 00:50:53.559 --> 00:50:56.260 college, as they truly had their finger on the 00:50:56.260 --> 00:50:59.099 pulse of where all the great live shows were 00:50:59.099 --> 00:51:02.219 taking place, whether it was Club Binet, Birch 00:51:02.219 --> 00:51:04.840 Hill Nightclub, Stone Pony, or if I was taking 00:51:04.840 --> 00:51:07.440 myself into the city, into the village, they 00:51:07.440 --> 00:51:09.659 knew where everything was happening. They always 00:51:09.659 --> 00:51:12.000 did great interviews and had great features. 00:51:12.219 --> 00:51:14.820 And it makes me so happy to see them still going 00:51:14.820 --> 00:51:18.460 strong to this day. Sherry was a guest on episode 00:51:18.460 --> 00:51:21.719 80, the ultimate songs about the radio playlist. 00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:23.820 And I can't wait to have her back on the show 00:51:23.820 --> 00:51:27.860 again sometime in 2025. All right, I'm going 00:51:27.860 --> 00:51:30.139 to keep this upbeat vibe going. But like I said, 00:51:30.219 --> 00:51:32.320 the Prince song's smoother. So we're going to 00:51:32.320 --> 00:51:34.460 bring it back up a little bit here because this 00:51:34.460 --> 00:51:36.639 is kind of a musical roller coaster we're going 00:51:36.639 --> 00:51:39.340 on right now. And I'm digging this because we're 00:51:39.340 --> 00:51:40.940 picking it up and we're bringing it down, but 00:51:40.940 --> 00:51:43.280 it's not too jarring. It's kind of a smooth roller 00:51:43.280 --> 00:51:45.559 coaster. But now we're going to keep that vibe 00:51:45.559 --> 00:51:49.280 going with Patreon mixtaper Chad LaMassa as he 00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:52.900 provides his pick for the ultimate mixtape. All 00:51:52.900 --> 00:51:55.760 right, so. I've been struggling with this ever 00:51:55.760 --> 00:51:58.579 since you posted this on the Patreon thing. And 00:51:58.579 --> 00:52:00.760 I've gone back and forth with a whole bunch of 00:52:00.760 --> 00:52:04.480 songs. And the other day, I just kind of, I looked 00:52:04.480 --> 00:52:06.440 down at my arm and saw my Beastie Boys lyric 00:52:06.440 --> 00:52:09.860 tattoo and said, it's got to be Professor Booty 00:52:09.860 --> 00:52:12.880 because the only thing that has saved me has 00:52:12.880 --> 00:52:15.219 always been music. Nice. And that's tattooed 00:52:15.219 --> 00:52:17.860 on my arm. And I feel like that's just such a 00:52:17.860 --> 00:52:21.380 very true thing for me. So I felt like that had 00:52:21.380 --> 00:52:24.610 to be the one. An album track, and a killer one 00:52:24.610 --> 00:52:27.710 at that, from the Beastie's seminal 1992 album, 00:52:27.789 --> 00:52:31.369 Check Your Head. This is such an important album 00:52:31.369 --> 00:52:33.969 to me, especially coming out of Paul's Boutique, 00:52:33.989 --> 00:52:37.690 which was all the way back in 1989. This was 00:52:37.690 --> 00:52:40.289 the Beastie Boys showing their versatility and 00:52:40.289 --> 00:52:44.090 their ability to adapt to a vastly changing music 00:52:44.090 --> 00:52:47.329 scene. Think about it. In 1989, hair bands were 00:52:47.329 --> 00:52:50.750 all the rage, and by 92, it was all grunge and 00:52:50.750 --> 00:52:53.639 alternative. Yet the Beasties were able to stay 00:52:53.639 --> 00:52:57.039 true to their sound and true to their vibe and 00:52:57.039 --> 00:53:00.639 ride the wave of the changing musical landscape 00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:03.739 with ease. And that's something that I've always 00:53:03.739 --> 00:53:06.940 appreciated and admired about the Beastie Boys 00:53:06.940 --> 00:53:11.150 music. And I also appreciate Chad, who is a huge 00:53:11.150 --> 00:53:14.010 part of the Patreon mixtaper community. So I'd 00:53:14.010 --> 00:53:16.369 like to thank him so much for being a part of 00:53:16.369 --> 00:53:18.829 that. And if anyone listening wants to join those 00:53:18.829 --> 00:53:22.389 conversations, you could do so at patreon .com 00:53:22.389 --> 00:53:26.269 forward slash myweeklymixtape. But here we go 00:53:26.269 --> 00:53:29.050 for the last song for the Ultimate Mixtape, Volume 00:53:29.050 --> 00:53:32.829 2, Side B. And like I said before, this has kind 00:53:32.829 --> 00:53:34.809 of been a roller coaster. We've had some slower 00:53:34.809 --> 00:53:38.170 tunes. We had some dance. We had some hip hop. 00:53:38.289 --> 00:53:40.849 And I feel like we have to kind of level off 00:53:40.849 --> 00:53:43.829 this ride. And there's only one person that can 00:53:43.829 --> 00:53:46.949 do that. And that is Gomez from Playlist Wars. 00:53:47.070 --> 00:53:50.389 And now the Sleevy G Show, as he provides his 00:53:50.389 --> 00:53:54.030 choice for the ultimate mixtape. Let me tell 00:53:54.030 --> 00:53:55.449 you something. That's a hard question, Brian. 00:53:55.949 --> 00:53:57.550 Really hard question. You really had to put me 00:53:57.550 --> 00:54:00.289 on the spot today, didn't you? There's a few 00:54:00.289 --> 00:54:02.710 songs for me. I will say that. A couple of them 00:54:02.710 --> 00:54:05.469 that do resonate. If I had to choose one, it's 00:54:05.469 --> 00:54:08.510 hard because it's Tom Petty's Into the Great 00:54:08.510 --> 00:54:12.909 Wide Open and Linkin Park's In the End. Two resonate 00:54:12.909 --> 00:54:15.429 me in my life, and it means a lot to me, but 00:54:15.429 --> 00:54:18.289 I got to go with Linkin Park, In the End. At 00:54:18.289 --> 00:54:20.730 one point... I just felt like there's things 00:54:20.730 --> 00:54:23.309 that just did not resonate with my life a little 00:54:23.309 --> 00:54:26.170 bit. And that song really probably pulled myself 00:54:26.170 --> 00:54:28.369 because in the end, it doesn't really matter. 00:54:28.849 --> 00:54:31.170 That's one of the best things that, you know, 00:54:31.170 --> 00:54:34.070 Chester and Mike and that whole band said it, 00:54:34.110 --> 00:54:35.349 you know what I mean? And that was something 00:54:35.349 --> 00:54:38.010 that meant a lot to me because at one point I 00:54:38.010 --> 00:54:40.869 felt like I was lost. And at the end of the day, 00:54:40.929 --> 00:54:43.269 it really didn't matter because if I survived 00:54:43.269 --> 00:54:45.309 the day, I did it right. So I feel like that 00:54:45.309 --> 00:54:48.469 might help somebody out one day. From 2000's 00:54:48.469 --> 00:54:50.730 Hybrid Theory, the song reached number two on 00:54:50.730 --> 00:54:53.869 the US Billboard Hot 100, number four in Germany, 00:54:54.110 --> 00:54:57.449 Switzerland, Australia, and Canada, number three 00:54:57.449 --> 00:55:00.570 in Sweden, and number one on the UK rock and 00:55:00.570 --> 00:55:03.929 metal charts. I got to see Linkin Park in December 00:55:03.929 --> 00:55:07.150 of 2000 at the Birch Hill Nightclub. This was 00:55:07.150 --> 00:55:10.289 a small venue that's sadly no longer around in 00:55:10.289 --> 00:55:13.260 central New Jersey. And a year later, I got to 00:55:13.260 --> 00:55:16.340 see them at the PNC Bank Arts Center and Continental 00:55:16.340 --> 00:55:20.300 Airlines Arena as part of Ozzfest, and it was 00:55:20.300 --> 00:55:22.699 the Family Values Tour. But there, they were 00:55:22.699 --> 00:55:26.320 support acts. Again, arenas, though. Two years 00:55:26.320 --> 00:55:29.179 later, in 2003, they were still a support act, 00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:31.500 only this time at the stadium level, opening 00:55:31.500 --> 00:55:35.480 for Metallica. And then in 2004, I got to see 00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:37.920 them back at the amphitheater level, only this 00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:41.920 time headlining a festival featuring Korn, Snoop 00:55:41.920 --> 00:55:44.659 Dogg, Less Than Jake, and The Used. And they 00:55:44.659 --> 00:55:46.860 also had some guy named Jay -Z come out during 00:55:46.860 --> 00:55:49.539 their set to play some of their mashups at the 00:55:49.539 --> 00:55:52.019 time. I've always been a fan of Linkin Park, 00:55:52.139 --> 00:55:54.079 and I love the fact that I was able to really 00:55:54.079 --> 00:55:58.360 see this band rise from the clubs to the arenas 00:55:58.360 --> 00:56:00.840 and amphitheaters all the way up to the stadiums 00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:03.659 and such. A short period of time, if you think 00:56:03.659 --> 00:56:05.980 about it. It was only a two or three year period. 00:56:06.380 --> 00:56:09.480 Now, I will say, I really like what Emily Armstrong 00:56:09.480 --> 00:56:12.199 of Dead Sarah is bringing to the table now in 00:56:12.199 --> 00:56:16.719 2024. So far, From Zero seems to, for me at least, 00:56:16.840 --> 00:56:20.000 mark a new era for the band while paying respect 00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:23.360 to those years and to Hybrid Theory and Meteor 00:56:23.360 --> 00:56:26.679 and all the stuff that Chester did. I hope the 00:56:26.679 --> 00:56:29.559 band can build momentum again because... I am 00:56:29.559 --> 00:56:31.719 sure that everyone listening to this that is 00:56:31.719 --> 00:56:35.559 a Linkin Park fan still misses Chester, but that's 00:56:35.559 --> 00:56:40.420 unfortunately not possible. And I hope that this 00:56:40.420 --> 00:56:42.400 new era of the band is able to bring something 00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:46.619 that satisfies fans of the old and the new. Now, 00:56:46.659 --> 00:56:49.320 as far as Gomez goes, like I mentioned before 00:56:49.320 --> 00:56:52.119 with Jay Sweet, I'm extremely thankful for the 00:56:52.119 --> 00:56:54.900 time that we put into our podcast. A year and 00:56:54.900 --> 00:56:58.210 a half. built into Playlist Wars, and we had 00:56:58.210 --> 00:57:01.590 such a great time doing that show week in and 00:57:01.590 --> 00:57:04.530 week out. I do miss it, but with that being said, 00:57:04.730 --> 00:57:08.329 I am also super stoked to see all the great things 00:57:08.329 --> 00:57:11.250 he's got going on over at the Sleevy G Show. 00:57:11.489 --> 00:57:14.710 For those listening, Gomez hit his 100th episode 00:57:14.710 --> 00:57:17.670 a few weeks back, and he had on C .J. Pierce 00:57:17.670 --> 00:57:20.670 of Drowning Pool, so be sure to check that interview 00:57:20.670 --> 00:57:23.469 out. Gomez was a guest over here on My Weekly 00:57:23.469 --> 00:57:26.969 Mixtape on episode 18. the Ultimate 80s Movie 00:57:26.969 --> 00:57:29.929 Soundtracks playlist, and he'll be back on very 00:57:29.929 --> 00:57:33.329 soon for another 80s -themed episode that I think 00:57:33.329 --> 00:57:36.889 everyone's going to really, really dig.
