00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.259
Hey everyone, I'm Jason Whistle from It's Not

00:00:02.259 --> 00:00:05.000
That Bad, and there can only be one. You are

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:08.740
listening to my weekly mixtape with Brian Colburn.

00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:12.720
Now, get the big pen out of the cassette. It's

00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:27.070
time to rock. Welcome to My Weekly Mixtape, a

00:00:27.070 --> 00:00:29.370
podcast that takes the classic mixtape approach

00:00:29.370 --> 00:00:32.549
to building a modern playlist. I'm your host,

00:00:32.590 --> 00:00:34.850
Brian Colburn. Joining me for tonight's collaboration

00:00:34.850 --> 00:00:37.929
is Jason Wissel, host of the It's Not That Bad

00:00:37.929 --> 00:00:41.789
and There Can Only Be One podcast, as well as

00:00:41.789 --> 00:00:45.649
my guest in the show's premiere episode, The

00:00:45.649 --> 00:00:48.409
Greatest Opening Guitar Riffs. Jason, thank you

00:00:48.409 --> 00:00:51.619
so much for joining me once again. I feel like

00:00:51.619 --> 00:00:54.600
in the spirit of the theme of this episode we're

00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:56.539
about to record, it should almost be like it's

00:00:56.539 --> 00:00:59.679
not that bad to Electric Boogaloo. Always happy

00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:01.719
to jump on the show. Thank you so much for bringing

00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:04.980
me back on. Well, since you're my first repeat

00:01:04.980 --> 00:01:08.000
guest, I can't ask you what the word mixtape

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.200
means to you because I've already asked you that.

00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:13.019
So as a return guest, you get a new question.

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:18.659
What's your go -to mixtape genre and why? When

00:01:18.659 --> 00:01:21.640
I was making mixtapes, like right now, if I'm

00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:24.159
making mixtapes, I really have only a couple

00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:26.620
of, or not mixtapes, but at least playlists on

00:01:26.620 --> 00:01:29.319
Spotify. I think I have one that's called Amazeballs

00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.439
Tracks, and that's about it. But when I was actually

00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:35.879
doing mixtapes, I always liked putting together

00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:38.260
like the slow song compilations. I don't know

00:01:38.260 --> 00:01:41.680
why. I just always connected to slow songs better,

00:01:41.739 --> 00:01:44.680
I think, at the time. So I had a lot of very

00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:48.379
chill mixes on cassette. Very interesting. And

00:01:48.379 --> 00:01:50.659
you know what's interesting about that is those

00:01:50.659 --> 00:01:53.780
chill mixtapes, at least when we were growing

00:01:53.780 --> 00:01:56.579
up, could be a lot of pop stuff. But then you

00:01:56.579 --> 00:01:58.739
got a lot of those hair band ballads that crossed

00:01:58.739 --> 00:02:02.260
over into pop radio that really made for interesting

00:02:02.260 --> 00:02:04.540
mixes. Because you'd be going from the Poisons

00:02:04.540 --> 00:02:08.620
and the Warrants and bands like that into whatever

00:02:08.620 --> 00:02:11.259
the pop ballads were at the time. Because Top

00:02:11.259 --> 00:02:14.879
40 Radio was playing a combination of both of

00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:17.389
those. Oh, it's the only time you'd ever have

00:02:17.389 --> 00:02:19.669
a mixtape that would go from Poison to Tori Amos

00:02:19.669 --> 00:02:22.509
and actually make sense. There you go. One hundred

00:02:22.509 --> 00:02:26.169
percent. Now, tonight, Jason and I will be curating

00:02:26.169 --> 00:02:29.110
a mixtape that fans of his podcast. It's not

00:02:29.110 --> 00:02:32.930
that bad. Will certainly resonate with. And I

00:02:32.930 --> 00:02:35.370
would go as far as to say that tonight's episode

00:02:35.370 --> 00:02:40.090
for the two of us is a true crossover discussion

00:02:40.090 --> 00:02:44.849
as our topic tonight is great songs. from bad

00:02:44.849 --> 00:02:48.349
movies. Now, before we go any further, I want

00:02:48.349 --> 00:02:52.050
to immediately specify that neither Jason or

00:02:52.050 --> 00:02:55.310
myself are saying that these movies are bad.

00:02:55.629 --> 00:02:59.229
In fact, in a lot of these instances, it's quite

00:02:59.229 --> 00:03:02.289
the contrary. But we're going with Jason's it's

00:03:02.289 --> 00:03:05.909
not that bad criteria of a bad movie. So Jason.

00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.979
why don't you, as the person who explains this

00:03:08.979 --> 00:03:11.659
each and every episode on It's Not That Bad,

00:03:11.819 --> 00:03:15.860
explain to the My Weekly Mixtape listeners what

00:03:15.860 --> 00:03:20.860
constitutes a quote -unquote bad movie? Well,

00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.840
we kind of go by the Rotten Tomatoes tomatometer,

00:03:23.939 --> 00:03:26.120
if you will. We kind of joke around over here

00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:28.240
that if the tomato is green, the movie can be

00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.259
seen. So the rule is if the critic's score is

00:03:32.259 --> 00:03:36.180
under 60%, then we consider that to be quote

00:03:36.180 --> 00:03:38.620
-unquote unfairly maligned and that's when we

00:03:38.620 --> 00:03:41.639
say that the movie qualifies so for a lot of

00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:44.280
these films and i'm just taking a look at my

00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:46.819
list that i've prepared of i think i stopped

00:03:46.819 --> 00:03:49.120
about 70 songs in preparation for this because

00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.120
i might have gone a little extra sorry not sorry

00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:55.259
but there's some movies here that are very very

00:03:55.259 --> 00:03:58.009
good There's some also some movies here that

00:03:58.009 --> 00:04:01.129
are very, very crap. I'm not going to sugarcoat

00:04:01.129 --> 00:04:04.210
this, but even in some of the worst movies, you

00:04:04.210 --> 00:04:06.490
have some of the best songs. So this is going

00:04:06.490 --> 00:04:08.969
to be a very interesting film. And I don't know

00:04:08.969 --> 00:04:12.129
about you. There are songs that I have set aside

00:04:12.129 --> 00:04:15.349
from movies I have never seen. But the soundtrack

00:04:15.349 --> 00:04:18.509
got played a lot. Well, as of the last month,

00:04:18.529 --> 00:04:21.250
because we have been playing out this little

00:04:21.250 --> 00:04:25.689
mini movie series on my weekly mixtape. the mixtapers

00:04:25.689 --> 00:04:28.529
have learned that I don't watch a lot of movies.

00:04:28.569 --> 00:04:32.089
So a lot of these soundtracks fall under that

00:04:32.089 --> 00:04:35.970
category for me. Now, Jason, using your bad movie

00:04:35.970 --> 00:04:40.290
criteria there, this was a pretty easy list for

00:04:40.290 --> 00:04:43.610
me to come up with because apparently a lot of

00:04:43.610 --> 00:04:46.689
the soundtracks I own and movies I enjoy fall

00:04:46.689 --> 00:04:50.569
into the it's not that bad category. But I was

00:04:50.569 --> 00:04:53.720
both happy. and disappointed simultaneously.

00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:58.779
And I'm going to spoil this now. UHF, the classic

00:04:58.779 --> 00:05:03.899
Weird Al Yankovic movie, did score a 61 on Rotten

00:05:03.899 --> 00:05:06.459
Tomatoes, which makes it ineligible for tonight's

00:05:06.459 --> 00:05:10.740
discussion, which is both a blessing and a curse,

00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:12.839
I guess, if you want to call it that. But it

00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:14.959
was at least worthy of a shout -out on tonight's

00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:17.839
episode. Well, to that same token as well, seeing

00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:21.189
as we're talking Weird Al Yankovic, Transformers

00:05:21.189 --> 00:05:25.629
the movie, the animated movie, has a slightly

00:05:25.629 --> 00:05:28.589
over 60 % rating, therefore Dare to be Stupid

00:05:28.589 --> 00:05:31.850
would not actually qualify for this one as well.

00:05:32.290 --> 00:05:34.550
Well, you had Dare to be Stupid, but the first

00:05:34.550 --> 00:05:36.930
song I was looking for was Stan Bush, The Touch.

00:05:37.449 --> 00:05:39.730
And sure enough, I went, oh, come on, really?

00:05:40.230 --> 00:05:43.410
I was pretty much ready to reach out to a...

00:05:44.009 --> 00:05:46.269
and try to get them to go on Rotten Tomatoes

00:05:46.269 --> 00:05:48.089
and give it a rotten score just to kind of bring

00:05:48.089 --> 00:05:51.009
it down for the sake of tonight's episode. However,

00:05:51.189 --> 00:05:53.470
I am going to keep this on the straight and narrow,

00:05:53.569 --> 00:05:58.529
100 % legit, and not do that. 60 and under. So

00:05:58.529 --> 00:06:00.850
let's get down to business. Tonight, as I mentioned,

00:06:01.029 --> 00:06:03.949
Jason and I will be curating a great songs from

00:06:03.949 --> 00:06:06.629
bad movies mixtape, and we'll use the old cassette

00:06:06.629 --> 00:06:08.970
deck approach, meaning our mixtape will be broken

00:06:08.970 --> 00:06:12.819
up into two sides. Side A. and Side B. Jason,

00:06:12.899 --> 00:06:15.240
as my special guest, will begin Side A with his

00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:17.860
first song choice, and then I'll add a song that

00:06:17.860 --> 00:06:20.899
I feel best follows up his choice. We'll then

00:06:20.899 --> 00:06:22.980
flip -flop choosing songs until we've mapped

00:06:22.980 --> 00:06:26.079
out the 10 songs for Side A. We'll then give

00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.399
our mixtape a proverbial flip, and we'll map

00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:30.720
out Side B, only this time I'll kick things off

00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.920
with Jason choosing second. Our overall goal

00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:36.420
for the episode tonight is to craft the best

00:06:36.420 --> 00:06:39.879
great songs from bad movies mixtape possible.

00:06:40.379 --> 00:06:43.279
through only 20 songs. At the end of the show,

00:06:43.319 --> 00:06:45.319
you can take our conversation to the next level

00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:48.459

Now, before we press the record button on this

00:07:33.589 --> 00:07:36.550
Mixtape, some Mixtapers chimed in with the song

00:07:36.550 --> 00:07:39.430
they feel would best. kick things off. And I

00:07:39.430 --> 00:07:41.730
want to start. So, Jason, you and I have some

00:07:41.730 --> 00:07:44.269
food for thought going into this episode. I mean,

00:07:44.290 --> 00:07:46.870
I have to add more songs to the list. Yes, exactly.

00:07:47.110 --> 00:07:51.550

Jason, now that we've got those chimings out

00:09:43.179 --> 00:09:45.539
in the atmosphere, what song are you kicking

00:09:45.539 --> 00:09:49.659
off our great songs from Bad Movies mixtape with?

00:09:50.620 --> 00:09:53.970
I'm not going to lie. I breathe a massive sigh

00:09:53.970 --> 00:09:56.009
of relief that I get the first song on this one

00:09:56.009 --> 00:09:57.509
because there's one song I'm like, oh, please

00:09:57.509 --> 00:09:59.549
don't scoop me on this. Okay, I get first song.

00:09:59.710 --> 00:10:03.029
I'm good. I'm good. And I have to give a shout

00:10:03.029 --> 00:10:06.690
out to you as well because when listening to

00:10:06.690 --> 00:10:10.110
your show and when listening to Playlist Wars,

00:10:10.289 --> 00:10:13.009
as I would be driving along on my commute into

00:10:13.009 --> 00:10:16.500
downtown Toronto, I'd like to play along. With

00:10:16.500 --> 00:10:18.139
the show, you know, you sit there and try and

00:10:18.139 --> 00:10:20.340
figure out what the next song would be or, you

00:10:20.340 --> 00:10:22.120
know, sit there and say, are they going to mention

00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:23.440
this song? Are they going to mention this song?

00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:26.220
It's very play alongable. There was an episode

00:10:26.220 --> 00:10:28.500
of Playlist Wars and I can't remember off the

00:10:28.500 --> 00:10:31.100
top of my head which episode it was. Someone

00:10:31.100 --> 00:10:35.259
mentioned a Letters to Cleo song. And I think

00:10:35.259 --> 00:10:37.460
the comment was, does Letters to Cleo have any

00:10:37.460 --> 00:10:40.360
song but what they do for soundtracks? Yes, they

00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:43.519
do. Yes, they do. I'm a big Letters to Cleo fan.

00:10:44.330 --> 00:10:48.370
But I'm going to go with, and it does make sense

00:10:48.370 --> 00:10:51.669
here in a second here, three small words from

00:10:51.669 --> 00:10:55.049
Josie and the Pussycats, which has a tomatometer

00:10:55.049 --> 00:11:00.230
of 53%. Now, if the vocals sound familiar, if

00:11:00.230 --> 00:11:02.350
you haven't guessed it by now, the vocals are

00:11:02.350 --> 00:11:05.110
not done by Rachel Leigh Cook. That's Kay Hanley

00:11:05.110 --> 00:11:08.549
from Letters to Cleo. However, the song was also

00:11:08.549 --> 00:11:11.409
co -written by Adam Duritz from The Counting

00:11:11.409 --> 00:11:14.779
Crows. The three actresses actually did do backup

00:11:14.779 --> 00:11:17.960
vocals on this. So did Biff Naked. Nice. You

00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:19.360
know who Biff Naked is if you're Canadian. But

00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:21.639
also, if you take a look at the liner notes of

00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:24.559
the Josie and the Pussycats album, Matthew Sweet

00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:27.480
is listed as quote unquote unspecified duties.

00:11:27.620 --> 00:11:29.419
So I'm just going to assume that he was there

00:11:29.419 --> 00:11:32.019
being awesome for the entire record. But I freaking

00:11:32.019 --> 00:11:35.460
love that film. That's such a fun film. That's

00:11:35.460 --> 00:11:38.320
a great film with a great soundtrack. And we've

00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:41.620
talked about this. On the show before, if you

00:11:41.620 --> 00:11:44.919
are performing music in a movie, but you're not

00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:49.179
singing it. So let's take out the movie with

00:11:49.179 --> 00:11:53.600
Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, A Star is Born,

00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:57.159
because they actually performed those songs in

00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:00.100
the movie. But we look at movies like That Thing

00:12:00.100 --> 00:12:04.740
You Do, Rockstar, where the actors are lip syncing.

00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:08.340
Oh, brother, where art thou? You need to be able

00:12:08.340 --> 00:12:11.440
to pull that off. It's not just lip syncing because

00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:14.659
it could be very easily figured out if you're

00:12:14.659 --> 00:12:18.559
not embodying that singer role. And in Josie

00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:21.259
and the Pussycats, you actually believe that

00:12:21.259 --> 00:12:23.980
they're performing the music, which is very important

00:12:23.980 --> 00:12:26.899
to me watching these movies. Because if it's

00:12:26.899 --> 00:12:29.720
unbelievable seeing them perform the music, I'm

00:12:29.720 --> 00:12:32.419
taken out of the role. Well, if I remember correctly,

00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:35.039
they actually went to, you know, quote unquote

00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:38.940
band camp. in preparation for this film. So,

00:12:38.940 --> 00:12:40.860
you know, they learned how to play the instruments,

00:12:40.940 --> 00:12:43.100
not that they played the instruments in the studio,

00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:47.299
but for at least for being on stage. The same

00:12:47.299 --> 00:12:50.539
thing, the bootcamp definitely happened in That

00:12:50.539 --> 00:12:53.200
Thing You Do. I know Tom Hanks sent The Wonders

00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:56.620
for a month to learn the instruments because

00:12:56.620 --> 00:12:58.720
if somebody's just sitting there holding a bass,

00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:00.779
now you and I are both bass players, and they're

00:13:00.779 --> 00:13:04.240
just sitting on the G, the entire song, you and

00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:06.659
I know that immediately. But if they're walking

00:13:06.659 --> 00:13:09.100
around and actually following the notes, you

00:13:09.100 --> 00:13:11.799
kind of learn to understand that. So it's a big

00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:15.379
thing to pull off. But besides all of that, Three

00:13:15.379 --> 00:13:19.179
Small Words is a catchy song. And it was a good

00:13:19.179 --> 00:13:21.600
movie. But we grew up with Josie and the Pussycats.

00:13:21.659 --> 00:13:24.080
So I guess at the point that this movie came

00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:27.840
out, we weren't parents yet. This movie is over

00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:32.360
20 years old now. We were still in our 20s at

00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:36.799
this point without children. the nostalgia factor

00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:39.220
wasn't hitting anywhere. And I feel like it was

00:13:39.220 --> 00:13:41.539
a missed opportunity that they might've wanted

00:13:41.539 --> 00:13:44.179
to hold this movie a little longer for it to

00:13:44.179 --> 00:13:48.440
truly have the parents love it because it's nostalgia

00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:51.740
and kids love it because it's new, like Super

00:13:51.740 --> 00:13:54.539
Mario Brothers is doing currently in the box

00:13:54.539 --> 00:13:57.080
office. The movie's doing gangbusters because

00:13:57.080 --> 00:14:00.840
us as parents remember it from our childhood

00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:02.600
and the kids now know it from their childhood.

00:14:02.799 --> 00:14:06.320
Plus it's a great movie, but. I digress. But

00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:08.480
I think, I think Josie and the Pussycats, rather

00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:11.279
than be more of a nostalgia factor, I think it

00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:15.399
was more of a, basically a commentary on the

00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:17.039
state of boy bands. Because, you know, if you

00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:20.279
think about the band Du Jour in the movie, which

00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:22.460
of course has Seth Green and Breckin Meyer in

00:14:22.460 --> 00:14:26.240
the group, you know, it really pokes fun at that

00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:28.779
whole boy band and then taking a rock band and

00:14:28.779 --> 00:14:32.200
turning it, like, it just makes fun of. pop radio,

00:14:32.279 --> 00:14:35.740
and basically what makes a popular song. Could

00:14:35.740 --> 00:14:39.000
not agree more. And now following that up, I

00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:41.179
feel like you're in kind of a pop range here,

00:14:41.259 --> 00:14:45.639
so I have a little bit of leeway. And when you

00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:48.039
think of soundtracks, one of the first names

00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.399
you think of, especially if you go back to the

00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:54.539
80s, is Kenny Loggins. And Kenny Loggins has

00:14:54.539 --> 00:14:58.879
a bunch of killer 80s soundtrack tunes. You think

00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:03.960
about Footloose, Danger Zone from Top Gun. You

00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:06.919
think about I'm Alright from Caddyshack. You

00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:09.559
think about Meet Me Halfway from Over the Top.

00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:13.799
But he also performed the theme song to a movie

00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:17.000
that myself and Gomez from Playlist Wars got

00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.759
to guest on It's Not That Bad all the way back

00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:25.399
on episode 10. And this movie had a tomatometer.

00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:28.809
Am I saying that correct? Tomatometer? You're

00:15:28.809 --> 00:15:30.970
saying it in a way that Rotten Tomatoes can't

00:15:30.970 --> 00:15:33.309
come after me for, I think. So we're good. We're

00:15:33.309 --> 00:15:36.250
good. I don't know if it's tomato meter or tomatometer,

00:15:36.350 --> 00:15:38.649
however it's pronounced. Let's call the whole

00:15:38.649 --> 00:15:44.029
thing off. Yeah. It got a rating of four. And

00:15:44.029 --> 00:15:48.429
the audience score got a rating of 17. So I'm

00:15:48.429 --> 00:15:51.350
going really with what is pretty much widely

00:15:51.350 --> 00:15:54.350
considered a bad movie. And I'm going with 1988's

00:15:54.350 --> 00:15:57.799
Caddyshack 2. And I'm going with Kenny Loggins'

00:15:57.940 --> 00:16:02.120
Nobody's Fool. Great song. It is a true Kenny

00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:06.519
Loggins anthem. Unfortunately, the movie didn't

00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:08.600
do as well as the first one, but I love the fact

00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:11.679
that he had the lead song in both Caddyshack

00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:14.899
1 and Caddyshack 2. Believe it or not, Nobody's

00:16:14.899 --> 00:16:17.460
Fool is actually a song I love rocking outside

00:16:17.460 --> 00:16:20.659
of soundtrack playlists. It's a fantastic 80s

00:16:20.659 --> 00:16:23.759
rock song. You can't go wrong. You need to have

00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:25.759
some Kenny Loggins love when we're talking movie

00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:29.580
soundtracks. And here's my contribution to that.

00:16:30.100 --> 00:16:34.340
Kenny Loggins, nobody's fool from the much maligned

00:16:34.340 --> 00:16:37.580
Caddyshack 2. Hey, I said it on the episode when

00:16:37.580 --> 00:16:39.559
you guys were on and I'll say it again and I

00:16:39.559 --> 00:16:43.059
will say it to anyone who listens. I still prefer

00:16:43.059 --> 00:16:46.539
Caddyshack 2 to the first Caddyshack because

00:16:46.539 --> 00:16:49.279
when Caddyshack 2 was on on the movie networks.

00:16:49.919 --> 00:16:52.200
I was of the age that I was actually able to

00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:55.080
watch it. And it was funny enough for me at that

00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:59.799
age to get the joke. So it's more about the fact

00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:02.320
that that movie was more part of my childhood

00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:05.240
as opposed to like the first one. So don't at

00:17:05.240 --> 00:17:10.660
me, don't at me, but. So now the question becomes,

00:17:10.740 --> 00:17:13.759
do I go with a more classic rock vibe or do I

00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:17.099
go similar to genre of the film? Because this

00:17:17.099 --> 00:17:19.279
is kind of what I've been looking forward to

00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:21.779
for this episode. I've been geared up for this

00:17:21.779 --> 00:17:25.240
one because I could follow it up with genre,

00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:27.240
I could follow it up with era, or I could follow

00:17:27.240 --> 00:17:32.500
it up with movie genre. Yes. Oh, I'm tossed up

00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:34.839
here. You know what? Okay. I'm going to stick

00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:39.910
in the decade and in sports. And with a tomatometer

00:17:39.910 --> 00:17:45.170
of 38 % off the Rocky IV soundtrack, I'm going

00:17:45.170 --> 00:17:49.430
to go with Robert Tepper's No Easy Way Out. Freaking

00:17:49.430 --> 00:17:54.410
love that song because A, how many montages can

00:17:54.410 --> 00:17:57.410
you fit into the movie? Yes, admittedly, fewer

00:17:57.410 --> 00:17:59.269
than Dreaming Little Dream, but there's still

00:17:59.269 --> 00:18:01.890
a ton of montages. So this is when he's driving

00:18:01.890 --> 00:18:04.890
the sports car and flashing back to the first

00:18:04.890 --> 00:18:06.130
three movies because they need to apparently

00:18:06.130 --> 00:18:11.440
pad the time. absolutely killer song, like all

00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:13.200
the way through. And the fact that it was made

00:18:13.200 --> 00:18:15.180
into, and I think it was both my Valentine that

00:18:15.180 --> 00:18:17.940
did the remake of that recently. The fact that

00:18:17.940 --> 00:18:22.700
that slays even now, that song hits hard. It's

00:18:22.700 --> 00:18:24.619
a fantastic song. And I'm going to be perfectly

00:18:24.619 --> 00:18:27.859
honest. I'm not the biggest movie buff. So you

00:18:27.859 --> 00:18:30.519
just blew my mind in the fact that Rocky four

00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:34.400
only scored a 34. Like to me, that song is from

00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:36.940
what's for all intensive purposes, an iconic

00:18:36.940 --> 00:18:40.549
eighties movie. And it's so beloved amongst especially

00:18:40.549 --> 00:18:45.890
my generation. I didn't realize it was so trashed

00:18:45.890 --> 00:18:48.930
in the actual rate. I'm sure the the user score

00:18:48.930 --> 00:18:51.470
for that's got to be much higher. Oh, absolutely.

00:18:51.789 --> 00:18:54.190
Yeah. But if you take a look at, you know, the

00:18:54.190 --> 00:18:57.309
original Rockies, you know, there was this underdog

00:18:57.309 --> 00:18:59.849
story. At this point, Rockies got everything

00:18:59.849 --> 00:19:03.089
that he needs. There's the giant robot, which,

00:19:03.130 --> 00:19:05.309
you know, Polly, I'm pretty sure had an affair

00:19:05.309 --> 00:19:07.970
with off camera, just the way that he's, you

00:19:07.970 --> 00:19:12.809
know, reacting to it. But it's also very raw,

00:19:12.990 --> 00:19:15.509
raw uber patriotism in the middle of the Cold

00:19:15.509 --> 00:19:19.369
War. Like, there's a lot to that film. And of

00:19:19.369 --> 00:19:21.430
course, it brought us some of the greatest Dolph

00:19:21.430 --> 00:19:26.630
Lundgren lines ever. If he dies, he dies. I don't

00:19:26.630 --> 00:19:28.890
know if tonally it was the movie for the time,

00:19:28.950 --> 00:19:33.049
but in hindsight, it's still, well, it's better

00:19:33.049 --> 00:19:34.630
than Rocky V. But then again, everything's better

00:19:34.630 --> 00:19:37.109
than Rocky V. Yeah, I have to agree with that.

00:19:37.690 --> 00:19:39.829
Rocky V, I don't even think had a soundtrack.

00:19:39.950 --> 00:19:41.869
I think they just said screw it for that one,

00:19:41.910 --> 00:19:43.890
to be perfectly honest. And if it did, I don't

00:19:43.890 --> 00:19:47.309
remember it. Wow. So I'm going to be honest.

00:19:47.829 --> 00:19:51.109
Would not have expected a Rocky IV song. To make

00:19:51.109 --> 00:19:54.250
this list. So I'm glad it did. Because also on

00:19:54.250 --> 00:19:56.509
the Rocky IV soundtrack. Which I can't touch

00:19:56.509 --> 00:19:59.190
now. Because you have now removed that movie

00:19:59.190 --> 00:20:01.829
from the list. Is Hearts on Fire by John Cafferty.

00:20:01.869 --> 00:20:06.730
However. I could tie it to that. Because John

00:20:06.730 --> 00:20:10.549
Cafferty. And the Beaver Brown Band. Is also

00:20:10.549 --> 00:20:15.269
known. As Eddie and the Cruisers. And in 1989.

00:20:16.460 --> 00:20:21.019
Eddie and the Cruisers 2, Eddie Lives, was released

00:20:21.019 --> 00:20:24.259
and flopped in movies faster than you could probably

00:20:24.259 --> 00:20:27.460
play through the actual movie or soundtrack.

00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:30.299
I don't think it lasted a day in theaters. And

00:20:30.299 --> 00:20:33.740
on Rotten Tomatoes right now, there's only three

00:20:33.740 --> 00:20:38.240
ratings and they're all bad. However, apparently

00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:42.759
that rating averages out to a tomatometer of

00:20:42.759 --> 00:20:47.950
34%. But! The audience score gives it 72. So

00:20:47.950 --> 00:20:50.150
I am going with Eddie and the Cruisers 2, Eddie

00:20:50.150 --> 00:20:53.730
Lives from 1989. And the song is Running Through

00:20:53.730 --> 00:20:56.490
the Fire from John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown

00:20:56.490 --> 00:21:00.109
Band. Now, the opening of this movie, I have

00:21:00.109 --> 00:21:02.990
to ask you this question because you're from

00:21:02.990 --> 00:21:07.410
Canada. And Eddie and the Cruisers, fictionally

00:21:07.410 --> 00:21:10.589
here, let's just talk hypothetically. He is a

00:21:10.589 --> 00:21:16.230
world famous musician. Who supposedly died. Moves

00:21:16.230 --> 00:21:21.789
to Canada. Grows a mustache. And gets a job in

00:21:21.789 --> 00:21:25.970
construction. So this mustache was the only thing

00:21:25.970 --> 00:21:29.569
on Earth that separated Joe West from Eddie Wilson

00:21:29.569 --> 00:21:31.750
in that movie. But for some reason, he fooled

00:21:31.750 --> 00:21:34.049
not only all of Canada, but all of the United

00:21:34.049 --> 00:21:36.750
States by growing a mustache. The whole world

00:21:36.750 --> 00:21:39.029
completely didn't recognize him, which was the

00:21:39.029 --> 00:21:41.519
only part of that. movie that i've always wondered

00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.740
so if somebody a massive star in the u .s were

00:21:45.740 --> 00:21:47.839
to pass away and move up to canada it just grew

00:21:47.839 --> 00:21:53.640
a mustache would you wreck it's a very good question

00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:57.140
i mean i okay so so talking realistically here

00:21:57.609 --> 00:22:00.549
Canadian radio up here, we have CRTC regulations

00:22:00.549 --> 00:22:03.450
where it says that a certain percentage of the

00:22:03.450 --> 00:22:06.109
songs that are played on radio have to be Canadian

00:22:06.109 --> 00:22:09.349
content. So knowing that those CRTC regulations

00:22:09.349 --> 00:22:12.390
are there means that some American artists don't

00:22:12.390 --> 00:22:14.710
get played up here. And you see that too with

00:22:14.710 --> 00:22:16.549
terrestrial radio and considering when Eddie

00:22:16.549 --> 00:22:19.230
and the Cruisers came out, you had bands that

00:22:19.230 --> 00:22:22.890
were big in certain cities and not so much like

00:22:22.890 --> 00:22:24.920
a couple states over. You know, the fact that

00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:26.759
it took Triumph to have to go down to, I think

00:22:26.759 --> 00:22:28.960
it was Texas, in order to be able to get big.

00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:31.559
The fact that Rush got big in Cleveland really

00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:33.960
before getting big in Canada, it's a bit of a

00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:36.779
different scenario. But to the same token, we

00:22:36.779 --> 00:22:40.420
have bands up here that were huge and barely

00:22:40.420 --> 00:22:43.539
made any noise south of the border. The Tragically

00:22:43.539 --> 00:22:46.319
Hip comes to mind. Yes, they were at Woodstock,

00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:51.319
I think it was 99 or 94. Yes, because Dan Aykroyd

00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:52.759
got to introduce them, they were on Saturday

00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:54.779
Night Live. But really, aside from those moments,

00:22:55.460 --> 00:22:57.839
the Tragically Hip didn't make as much noise.

00:22:57.960 --> 00:23:00.240
And yet they're considered like the house band

00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:03.619
up here. So it's possible. It's very possible.

00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:07.000
All right. So maybe the producers of Eddie and

00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:09.880
the Cruisers 2 weren't as crazy as I've thought

00:23:09.880 --> 00:23:13.660
for all these years. When he shaves his mustache

00:23:13.660 --> 00:23:16.339
at the end of the movie, all of a sudden everyone's

00:23:16.339 --> 00:23:18.740
like, oh, Eddie Wilson, you're back. Like it

00:23:18.740 --> 00:23:21.759
really the mustache was all his disguise was.

00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:24.460
Maybe I shouldn't be as shocked that this movie

00:23:24.460 --> 00:23:26.400
didn't do well in the theaters. But overall,

00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:29.079
realistically, for me personally, at least, I

00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:31.880
loved it as a kid. It was it was that pure 80s

00:23:31.880 --> 00:23:34.680
cheese. And for some reason, the lead guitarist

00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:38.180
always referred to the band as the band. Man,

00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:40.519
you're going to be in the band. And it was like.

00:23:42.250 --> 00:23:45.750
But there was something that was so bad, it was

00:23:45.750 --> 00:23:48.829
brilliant about this movie. And I loved it. And

00:23:48.829 --> 00:23:51.410
I have the Blu -ray with both movies on it. I

00:23:51.410 --> 00:23:54.569
love watching both of them. I love John Cafferty

00:23:54.569 --> 00:23:57.089
and the Beaver Brown Band, whether they are,

00:23:57.170 --> 00:24:00.410
quote unquote, Eddie and the Cruisers or just

00:24:00.410 --> 00:24:02.250
John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band. But

00:24:02.250 --> 00:24:05.150
Running Through the Fire is a kick -ass song,

00:24:05.309 --> 00:24:08.609
especially for 1989. They were still chalking

00:24:08.609 --> 00:24:10.390
up great hits at that point. And that's definitely

00:24:10.390 --> 00:24:12.410
one of them. You'll have to correct me if I'm

00:24:12.410 --> 00:24:14.789
wrong, but I think it was on editing the cruisers.

00:24:14.789 --> 00:24:17.450
The song on the dark side was on that soundtrack.

00:24:17.549 --> 00:24:20.190
I think the first movie. Yes. Yes. Okay. But

00:24:20.190 --> 00:24:22.269
then of course, Corey Taylor did a cover of it

00:24:22.269 --> 00:24:25.250
recently on his solo album. And that was killer.

00:24:25.430 --> 00:24:27.849
Yeah. Fantastic. Absolutely. Fantastic version.

00:24:28.490 --> 00:24:33.730
Oh, where do I go to next? Okay. So Eddie and

00:24:33.730 --> 00:24:37.250
the cruisers was released in 1983. So I think

00:24:37.250 --> 00:24:40.099
I'm going to go one year later. And a movie that

00:24:40.099 --> 00:24:42.640
actually surprised me, the fact that it qualifies

00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:48.460
with a 52 % tomatometer. And if you were to ask

00:24:48.460 --> 00:24:53.119
Peter Quill, this is the movie where Kevin Bacon

00:24:53.119 --> 00:24:56.259
saves the universe through dancing. Off of the

00:24:56.259 --> 00:24:59.480
movie or the soundtrack for Footloose, I'm actually

00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:02.559
going to go with Holding It for a Hero by Bonnie

00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:07.309
Tyler. Wow. There is absolutely nothing wrong

00:25:07.309 --> 00:25:09.269
with that song and that soundtrack to it. Like,

00:25:09.269 --> 00:25:11.250
I'm not going to lie. Every now and then when

00:25:11.250 --> 00:25:13.730
we're trying to figure out movies to cover for

00:25:13.730 --> 00:25:17.009
the show, I'm often surprised at some of the

00:25:17.009 --> 00:25:21.210
movies that actually do qualify. Footloose, I

00:25:21.210 --> 00:25:24.910
always consider that to be a paragon of 1984

00:25:24.910 --> 00:25:28.490
cinema going. Doesn't necessarily mean the critics

00:25:28.490 --> 00:25:31.450
saw it that way, but I mean, are you surprised

00:25:31.450 --> 00:25:35.329
that a movie like Footloose? actually qualifies

00:25:35.329 --> 00:25:38.910
am i surprised dude i literally just called it

00:25:38.910 --> 00:25:40.809
out at the beginning talking about all the hits

00:25:40.809 --> 00:25:43.710
that kenny loggins cranked out for good movies

00:25:43.710 --> 00:25:47.329
and talked about footloose in that three songs

00:25:47.329 --> 00:25:52.109
ago i am today years old learning that footloose

00:25:52.109 --> 00:25:55.869
scored under 60 on rotten tomatoes i oh i just

00:25:55.869 --> 00:25:58.430
and again you assume you make an ass out of you

00:25:58.430 --> 00:26:00.900
i mean i just made an ass out of myself because

00:26:00.900 --> 00:26:03.660
I assumed there was no way that Footloose was

00:26:03.660 --> 00:26:07.119
coming in under 60%. Mind blown. Mind blown.

00:26:07.700 --> 00:26:09.400
Now the interesting thing is, where do you go

00:26:09.400 --> 00:26:12.519
from here? We've hung in the 80s for a bit. It's

00:26:12.519 --> 00:26:14.480
hard to pivot out of the 80s when you have this

00:26:14.480 --> 00:26:17.759
sound going. And I'm scrolling through my list.

00:26:18.940 --> 00:26:21.079
I think I'm going to stay in the 80s because

00:26:21.079 --> 00:26:24.279
I feel like we got this vibe going here. And

00:26:24.279 --> 00:26:25.960
I'm going to move up to one that I know Gomez

00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:29.880
will applaud. For sure. And I'm going to go to

00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:35.779
1987 from a movie that scored 20 % on the Tomatometer

00:26:35.779 --> 00:26:40.680
with an audience score of 55%. And that movie

00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:44.960
is Mannequin. And the song is Starship, Nothing's

00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:48.420
Gonna Stop Us Now. Starship got a bad rap in

00:26:48.420 --> 00:26:50.460
the 80s. I get that they weren't the Jefferson

00:26:50.460 --> 00:26:53.839
Starship that everybody knew and loved from the

00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:56.900
70s. But this was a reinvention. But Nothing's

00:26:56.900 --> 00:27:00.480
Gonna Stop Us Now was a... ridiculously catchy

00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:05.460
pop ballad. And I love the fact that bands like

00:27:05.460 --> 00:27:08.380
The Starting Line did punk covers of it. The

00:27:08.380 --> 00:27:12.799
song is catchy. And, you know, Mannequin, I saw

00:27:12.799 --> 00:27:14.400
back in the 80s. I don't think I've seen it in

00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:17.019
30 years. I can't tell you if it held up. In

00:27:17.019 --> 00:27:19.619
my mind, it was funny way back in the day. I

00:27:19.619 --> 00:27:22.059
just haven't seen it in so long. But this song

00:27:22.059 --> 00:27:24.420
definitely holds up. And coming out of Bonnie

00:27:24.420 --> 00:27:28.160
Tyler, I feel like staying with the female 80s

00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:30.559
sound. But it slows it down a little bit because

00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:32.740
we've had a lot of like upbeat songs so far.

00:27:32.900 --> 00:27:34.819
So I figured now is the time to kind of dip a

00:27:34.819 --> 00:27:36.740
little bit and give you a little bit more to

00:27:36.740 --> 00:27:39.920
pivot off from for the rest of this. But my track

00:27:39.920 --> 00:27:42.700
six is Starship. Nothing's going to stop us now

00:27:42.700 --> 00:27:45.720
from Mannequin. All I'm picturing right now is

00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:48.779
like the motorcycle ride with Andrew McCarthy

00:27:48.779 --> 00:27:51.140
driving down with him. I can't remember the actress's

00:27:51.140 --> 00:27:55.240
name. Kim Cattrall. Kim Cattrall. Yes. Yes. Speaking

00:27:55.240 --> 00:27:59.109
of Canadians. Yes. You know what? I know exactly

00:27:59.109 --> 00:28:01.289
where I'm going to go with this one. I'm going

00:28:01.289 --> 00:28:04.809
to bring this into the 90s, but I like the happy

00:28:04.809 --> 00:28:07.349
vibe we got going here. So I'm going to stick

00:28:07.349 --> 00:28:09.390
with another movie that A, I'm surprised actually

00:28:09.390 --> 00:28:13.950
qualifies, but B, happy, upbeat, catchy as hell

00:28:13.950 --> 00:28:18.410
with a tomatometer of 53 % from the soundtrack

00:28:18.410 --> 00:28:22.349
of So I Married an Axe Murderer. I'm going to

00:28:22.349 --> 00:28:25.970
go with There She Goes from The Laws. This is

00:28:25.970 --> 00:28:28.009
kind of like almost like the theme song of the

00:28:28.009 --> 00:28:32.849
whole film. One of my favorite Mike Myers films

00:28:32.849 --> 00:28:36.009
of all time, just because it's just, and Nancy

00:28:36.009 --> 00:28:39.890
Travis absolutely loved her, loved her in Destiny

00:28:39.890 --> 00:28:42.309
Turns on the radio, loved her in this. I'm surprised

00:28:42.309 --> 00:28:44.549
she didn't do much more like, you know, later

00:28:44.549 --> 00:28:47.910
on, at least not that I noticed, but it's such

00:28:47.910 --> 00:28:50.450
a fun film. And if you're not sitting there watching

00:28:50.450 --> 00:28:53.269
this going, head, move, then you're watching

00:28:53.269 --> 00:28:58.220
it wrong. Love the song. I want to give a shout

00:28:58.220 --> 00:29:02.859
out back to episode 17 of my weekly mixtape because

00:29:02.859 --> 00:29:06.180
we had JT from The Uninvited on and we talk about

00:29:06.180 --> 00:29:09.680
the laws. There she goes in that episode. Such

00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:12.000
an underrated song. Obviously, everyone automatically

00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:15.920
goes to at least in the US when they hear there

00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:18.200
she goes, they automatically go to six pence,

00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:20.650
none the richer. Because they really brought

00:29:20.650 --> 00:29:23.009
that song to pop radio. But the original version

00:29:23.009 --> 00:29:26.089
is absolutely fantastic. So I Married an Axe

00:29:26.089 --> 00:29:29.750
Murderer is a great movie. And coming out of

00:29:29.750 --> 00:29:31.430
that, I think I know exactly what I'm going to

00:29:31.430 --> 00:29:33.589
do. Being you got it in the 90s and you're keeping

00:29:33.589 --> 00:29:36.690
this upbeat thing going. I am going to go to

00:29:36.690 --> 00:29:42.029
a movie that came out in 1995. It's one of my

00:29:42.029 --> 00:29:44.450
favorite 90s movies. And it's not that thing

00:29:44.450 --> 00:29:46.289
you do because that thing you do does not qualify.

00:29:47.309 --> 00:29:50.049
But this one is also centered around music, and

00:29:50.049 --> 00:29:54.670
it has a Tomatometer score of 31 with an audience

00:29:54.670 --> 00:29:59.130
score of 83. So there's a huge swing in this.

00:29:59.269 --> 00:30:03.349
People love this movie. I know a lot of people

00:30:03.349 --> 00:30:06.730
love this movie. Gomez and I both guessed it

00:30:06.730 --> 00:30:11.329
on The Itch recently in celebration of Rex Manning

00:30:11.329 --> 00:30:15.880
Day because of the movie. Empire Records. And

00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:18.640
sticking with that upbeat theme, I'm going to

00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.000
go with Coyote Shivers' Sugar High, which is

00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:24.480
the song that's performed at the end of the movie

00:30:24.480 --> 00:30:28.380
on top of Empire Records. Now, I will say this.

00:30:28.619 --> 00:30:33.799
I prefer the movie version from the soundtrack

00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:36.339
version because of the verse that Renee Zellweger

00:30:36.339 --> 00:30:39.359
sang in the movie. I actually prefer that version

00:30:39.359 --> 00:30:42.349
more. However, it's not released anywhere. So

00:30:42.349 --> 00:30:43.750
I am going with the original. The original is

00:30:43.750 --> 00:30:46.609
fun anyway. It keeps that indie vibe going coming

00:30:46.609 --> 00:30:49.670
out of the laws. There she goes. So Coyote Shivers,

00:30:49.769 --> 00:30:52.410
Sugar High from Empire Records. I'm not going

00:30:52.410 --> 00:30:55.289
to lie. You scooped me on the movie. I had in

00:30:55.289 --> 00:30:57.069
my list till I hear it from you from the Jim

00:30:57.069 --> 00:30:59.490
Blossoms and a girl like you from Edwin Collins

00:30:59.490 --> 00:31:02.410
set aside for that one. But you scooped me on

00:31:02.410 --> 00:31:05.630
the movie. But coming out of the laws, I don't

00:31:05.630 --> 00:31:07.990
think either of those songs flow as naturally

00:31:07.990 --> 00:31:11.140
as Coyote Shivers does. Oh, very, very true.

00:31:11.259 --> 00:31:14.980
Very true. So now where do I go from here? Because

00:31:14.980 --> 00:31:17.980
I've only got one song left on this side. And

00:31:17.980 --> 00:31:21.880
again, I do like the upbeat vibe. So I'm going

00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:25.240
to stay upbeat. A little bit harder, mind you.

00:31:25.700 --> 00:31:27.339
But I'm definitely going to stay upbeat as far

00:31:27.339 --> 00:31:31.220
as the movie tonality goes. So with a tomatometer

00:31:31.220 --> 00:31:36.500
of 52 % from the soundtrack of Jay and Silent

00:31:36.500 --> 00:31:41.200
Bob Strike Back. I ask you, how many people want

00:31:41.200 --> 00:31:46.779
to kick some ass from Stroke 9? Yes! Absolutely

00:31:46.779 --> 00:31:49.799
love this song. Love this movie. You totally

00:31:49.799 --> 00:31:52.049
scooped me on this one. I had a couple songs

00:31:52.049 --> 00:31:54.109
from that soundtrack, and obviously I had Because

00:31:54.109 --> 00:31:56.970
I Got High from Afro Man in my back pocket waiting,

00:31:57.089 --> 00:31:59.789
but it just kind of feels like with the upbeat

00:31:59.789 --> 00:32:02.430
vibe that we're going with. And let's be honest,

00:32:02.650 --> 00:32:05.410
like Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is one of

00:32:05.410 --> 00:32:09.630
the most fun road trippy romp type films that

00:32:09.630 --> 00:32:12.549
has come out in the last 20 years. I don't know

00:32:12.549 --> 00:32:16.440
why. You know, it's got a 52%. I mean, you've

00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:20.000
got cameos from George Carlin, Carrie Fisher.

00:32:20.299 --> 00:32:24.380
The entire thing is so self -knowing and self

00:32:24.380 --> 00:32:27.119
-referential. You can't go wrong with a moment

00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:30.500
of it. Like, to me, this is one of the best Kevin

00:32:30.500 --> 00:32:35.160
Smith films, period. From the cinematography

00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:38.359
to it, to the action beats, to the writing, to

00:32:38.359 --> 00:32:40.299
the comedy, all the way through. Like, it is

00:32:40.299 --> 00:32:44.500
front to back hilarious. Could not agree more.

00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:46.880
I had two songs from that soundtrack on my list,

00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:49.660
depending on where we went. I had Stroke 9's

00:32:49.660 --> 00:32:52.680
Kick Some Ass. And even though it wasn't created

00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:55.859
for the film, the use of Run DMC's Tougher Than

00:32:55.859 --> 00:32:58.440
Leather, I had on my list just in case there

00:32:58.440 --> 00:33:00.220
was some hip hop being thrown around because

00:33:00.220 --> 00:33:04.559
that use is absolutely fantastic. Love that film.

00:33:05.220 --> 00:33:07.720
And I know exactly what I'm going to close this

00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:09.880
side with because we've had a lot of fun songs

00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:12.579
on this side. And I want to give another shout

00:33:12.579 --> 00:33:14.779
out to Patreon Playlister Cactus Pete because

00:33:14.779 --> 00:33:17.519
he chimed in with this one and I agree wholeheartedly.

00:33:17.759 --> 00:33:20.779
And I'm going to bring us into the 2000s, 2004,

00:33:21.059 --> 00:33:25.740
with a Tomatometer score of 47%, but an audience

00:33:25.740 --> 00:33:30.359
score of 75%. Which means, once again, big swing

00:33:30.359 --> 00:33:34.490
from the audience to the critics. Excusie! I

00:33:34.490 --> 00:33:38.150
am going with Lustra's Scotty Doesn't Know. No,

00:33:38.230 --> 00:33:40.910
that's not Matt Damon singing. But just like

00:33:40.910 --> 00:33:44.710
at the top of the episode with track one, Josie

00:33:44.710 --> 00:33:47.490
and the Pussycats were lip syncing. We're ending

00:33:47.490 --> 00:33:50.849
the side with that same lip syncing vibe with

00:33:50.849 --> 00:33:53.190
Lustra's track Scotty Doesn't Know, which also

00:33:53.190 --> 00:33:57.230
made the My Weekly Mixtape episode 10, the ultimate

00:33:57.230 --> 00:34:01.220

doesn't know scotty doesn't know scotty doesn't

00:34:13.619 --> 00:34:16.469
know You scooped me on that one. I'm not going

00:34:16.469 --> 00:34:18.489
to lie. You definitely scooped me on that one.

00:34:18.550 --> 00:34:21.949
I, I had Euro trip for sure in my list. It's

00:34:21.949 --> 00:34:24.250
just a matter of, you know, where was the right

00:34:24.250 --> 00:34:26.429
time to put it? And it does. It's a, that's the

00:34:26.429 --> 00:34:29.369
perfect followup for kick some ass. As soon as

00:34:29.369 --> 00:34:31.289
you said kick some ass, I was like, there's no

00:34:31.289 --> 00:34:33.150
other song that can go here. There's no other

00:34:33.150 --> 00:34:36.869
song. And that mixtapers concludes side a of

embedded on the episode page. Now, Jason, before

00:35:30.949 --> 00:35:33.650
we flip things over and kick off Side B, besides

00:35:33.650 --> 00:35:35.909
It's Not That Bad, which you talked about way

00:35:35.909 --> 00:35:39.210
back on episode one, you also now host a brand

00:35:39.210 --> 00:35:43.230
new music podcast called There Can Only Be One.

00:35:43.250 --> 00:35:46.690
And no, it's not a Highlander -centric show.

00:35:46.949 --> 00:35:49.110
So why don't you tell listeners more about this,

00:35:49.150 --> 00:35:52.869
what I personally consider to be an amazing podcast.

00:35:54.300 --> 00:35:56.400
Well, again, thank you so much, and also thank

00:35:56.400 --> 00:35:58.719
you for coming on to the second episode of that

00:35:58.719 --> 00:36:01.579
show, going through the entire Tom Petty discography.

00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:05.039
So the thing with There Can Only Be One is each

00:36:05.039 --> 00:36:07.079
episode, we're going to take an artist, whether

00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:09.860
it be a singer -songwriter or a band, and we

00:36:09.860 --> 00:36:13.840
go through their entire studio discography, making

00:36:13.840 --> 00:36:17.599
our own kind of best -of playlist. But there's

00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:22.579
rules. There are rules. A. We ignore live albums

00:36:22.579 --> 00:36:26.159
and we ignore greatest hits albums. B, it's NHL

00:36:26.159 --> 00:36:28.300
All -Star Game rules. Therefore, every studio

00:36:28.300 --> 00:36:31.559
album must be represented. And C, because I'm

00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:34.480
cruel and evil, you're only allowed to pick one

00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:37.440
song off of each album. So if you have an artist

00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:40.900
where there are 10 studio albums, you're picking

00:36:40.900 --> 00:36:43.900
10 songs, one from each album. And I'm not going

00:36:43.900 --> 00:36:46.949
to lie. There have been some shows. That have

00:36:46.949 --> 00:36:52.489
broken me. We did an episode on Pink and two

00:36:52.489 --> 00:36:57.690
of my favorite songs of hers of all time were

00:36:57.690 --> 00:37:01.349
on the same album and it hurt. It hurt to decide

00:37:01.349 --> 00:37:04.030
between one or the other. And it really boiled

00:37:04.030 --> 00:37:07.170
down to what song held up better on the studio

00:37:07.170 --> 00:37:09.869
version as opposed to the live version. But there

00:37:09.869 --> 00:37:12.429
are some deliberations that go on when we're

00:37:12.429 --> 00:37:14.250
making some of these picks. I mean, when you

00:37:14.250 --> 00:37:16.110
were on, you know, I'm sure there were some Tom

00:37:16.110 --> 00:37:18.329
Petty albums where I'm just like, you know, you're

00:37:18.329 --> 00:37:20.769
just like you have to choose between, you know,

00:37:20.769 --> 00:37:22.889
your your your kids. Which one's your favorite?

00:37:23.309 --> 00:37:27.630
That was a. ridiculously tough episode but so

00:37:27.630 --> 00:37:30.210
much fun because you really have to go back and

00:37:30.210 --> 00:37:32.570
dive through and listen to these albums again

00:37:32.570 --> 00:37:35.030
to make sure you're truly choosing the right

00:37:35.030 --> 00:37:38.530
song to represent an album so i absolutely love

00:37:38.530 --> 00:37:43.769
the format i love the show so much and i think

00:37:43.769 --> 00:37:46.949
it's a winning formula for people that love kind

00:37:46.949 --> 00:37:50.050
of this fantasy football form of music podcast

00:37:50.050 --> 00:37:53.039
similar to what i'm Host here at my weekly mixtape

00:37:53.039 --> 00:37:55.159
and what you're doing over there. So I'm really

00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:57.880
excited for the future of that one. And I have

00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:00.360
to be honest, going back to it's not that bad.

00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:04.380
This episode, dude, if nothing else comes from

00:38:04.380 --> 00:38:06.960
this episode, it's giving you a treasure trove

00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:09.860
of content to pull from for future episodes.

00:38:10.199 --> 00:38:12.460
Well, I'm just taking a look at just the movies

00:38:12.460 --> 00:38:15.659
that are on my list and realizing that we are

00:38:15.659 --> 00:38:18.380
very rapidly coming up, not only on our second

00:38:18.380 --> 00:38:21.900
anniversary, but our 100th episode. I'm pretty

00:38:21.900 --> 00:38:25.679
sure we have year three covered already with

00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:29.239
just the movies that are on this list. Unbelievable.

00:38:29.300 --> 00:38:32.780
And now to start off side B, I get to kick that

00:38:32.780 --> 00:38:35.599
off. And I'm going to start off with something

00:38:35.599 --> 00:38:38.539
completely different to kind of wipe the slate

00:38:38.539 --> 00:38:40.920
clean on side B. Because every now and then when

00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:43.460
you flip a mixtape over, it could be a totally

00:38:43.460 --> 00:38:45.780
different vibe. And I want to kind of open up

00:38:45.780 --> 00:38:48.780
the door for some new ideas and kind of types

00:38:48.780 --> 00:38:51.389
of songs to flow through here. I'm going to go

00:38:51.389 --> 00:38:54.489
back to 1998, and one of the mixtapers chimed

00:38:54.489 --> 00:38:58.510
in with this movie, which has a Tomatometer score

00:38:58.510 --> 00:39:04.510
of 46%, and in rare form here, an audience score

00:39:04.510 --> 00:39:09.769
of 37%. So this one, critics mostly didn't like

00:39:09.769 --> 00:39:13.369
it, but audiences really kind of didn't like

00:39:13.369 --> 00:39:17.530
it. I saw it in the theater. I wasn't a fan of

00:39:17.530 --> 00:39:20.349
the movie, but as soon as the movie was over,

00:39:20.909 --> 00:39:23.449
I immediately went to the store and bought the

00:39:23.449 --> 00:39:27.909
soundtrack because all the movie was was a series

00:39:27.909 --> 00:39:30.190
of performances that made the soundtrack from

00:39:30.190 --> 00:39:35.409
1998's Blues Brothers 2000. I am going with the

00:39:35.409 --> 00:39:39.030
Louisiana Gator Boys. How blue can you get? Now,

00:39:39.050 --> 00:39:43.349
who are the Louisiana Gator Boys? The Louisiana

00:39:43.349 --> 00:39:48.929
Gator Boys is Jeff Skunk Baxter. Gary U .S. Bonds.

00:39:49.630 --> 00:39:54.690
Eric Clapton. Clarence Clemons. Dak DeJeanette.

00:39:54.949 --> 00:40:01.530
Bo Diddley. John Faddis. Isaac Hayes. Dr. John.

00:40:01.989 --> 00:40:07.130
Tommy Pipes McDonald. Charlie Musselwhite. Billy

00:40:07.130 --> 00:40:13.309
Preston. Lou Rawls. Joshua Redman. Paul Schaefer.

00:40:13.610 --> 00:40:20.340
Coco Taylor. Travis Tritt. Jimmy Vaughn. Grover

00:40:20.340 --> 00:40:25.019
Washington Jr., Willie Weeks, Steve Winwood,

00:40:25.219 --> 00:40:32.239
and the lead singer, B .B. King. When I saw this

00:40:32.239 --> 00:40:35.159
scene in the theater, my jaw dropped because

00:40:35.159 --> 00:40:38.760
of all of these musical legends on stage at once.

00:40:38.840 --> 00:40:42.750
If for nothing else. This movie needed to be

00:40:42.750 --> 00:40:46.170
made for that scene alone. Because a lot of these

00:40:46.170 --> 00:40:48.550
artists aren't with us anymore. And seeing that

00:40:48.550 --> 00:40:52.250
performance was absolutely mind -blowing. I am

00:40:52.250 --> 00:40:55.269
sure for the crew and the crowd that was in that

00:40:55.269 --> 00:41:00.309
room, that was lightning in a bottle magic. And

00:41:00.309 --> 00:41:04.289
for an otherwise meh movie, that scene made it

00:41:04.289 --> 00:41:08.110
worth owning the DVD for, worth owning the soundtrack

00:41:08.110 --> 00:41:13.570
for, and worth kicking off. Side B of our great

00:41:13.570 --> 00:41:16.630
songs from a bad movie mixtape. The Louisiana

00:41:16.630 --> 00:41:19.989
Gator Boys. How blue can you get from Blues Brothers

00:41:19.989 --> 00:41:25.670
2000? Okay. So I know Justin Fortune mentioned

00:41:25.670 --> 00:41:29.309
Blues Brothers 2000. And I know I chimed in.

00:41:30.630 --> 00:41:35.389
Worst Super Bowl ever. Aside from Elvis Presto.

00:41:35.449 --> 00:41:39.670
Aside from Elvis Presto. I have personally. blocked

00:41:39.670 --> 00:41:42.730
that Superbowl from my mind, even though ZZ Top

00:41:42.730 --> 00:41:44.469
was there. And even though James Brown was there

00:41:44.469 --> 00:41:48.349
at that Superbowl, I have done my best to block

00:41:48.349 --> 00:41:53.329
that out of, out of my mind. But now, interestingly,

00:41:53.550 --> 00:41:56.429
where do we go from here? Because you've got,

00:41:56.449 --> 00:41:57.989
you know, you've got a song with, if I remember

00:41:57.989 --> 00:42:00.949
correctly, a bit of groove to it, a bit of, bit

00:42:00.949 --> 00:42:03.250
of, yeah. So I think I know where I'm going to

00:42:03.250 --> 00:42:05.829
go. And I have to give another tip of the hat

00:42:05.829 --> 00:42:10.559
to Playlist Wars. And a previous special guest

00:42:10.559 --> 00:42:13.380
that you had. And it's also a tip of the hat,

00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:15.099
too. It's not that bad because we have covered

00:42:15.099 --> 00:42:18.460
this movie before. I'm talking about, with a

00:42:18.460 --> 00:42:22.900
36 % tomatometer, the Canadian film Dog Park.

00:42:23.360 --> 00:42:27.019
The song is called Things That I Used To Do from

00:42:27.019 --> 00:42:32.329
G -Love and Special Sauce. Nice. Now, if you've

00:42:32.329 --> 00:42:35.170
never seen the film, it's written and directed

00:42:35.170 --> 00:42:37.389
by Bruce McCullough from Kids in the Hall fame,

00:42:37.510 --> 00:42:40.789
but it's also got Luke Wilson, not Owen Wilson,

00:42:40.969 --> 00:42:45.929
Luke Wilson, Janine Garofalo, and Natasha Henstridge

00:42:45.929 --> 00:42:50.110
from Species fame. The song is just tons of fun.

00:42:50.539 --> 00:42:53.440
Like just a great, fun, funk groove. It's actually

00:42:53.440 --> 00:42:56.380
the song that opens up the entire film. And it's

00:42:56.380 --> 00:42:58.679
just one of those small little films that, you

00:42:58.679 --> 00:43:01.099
know, yes, went straight to video. Sorry, went

00:43:01.099 --> 00:43:03.480
straight to VHS. Let me age myself here properly.

00:43:04.239 --> 00:43:08.099
But it's a fun film if you're looking for something

00:43:08.099 --> 00:43:12.000
that's more of an ennui -filmed romantic, not

00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:13.820
necessarily comedy, but definitely a lighter

00:43:13.820 --> 00:43:17.179
rom -com type thing. So it's not a great movie.

00:43:17.539 --> 00:43:20.170
It's not a horrible movie. It is better than

00:43:20.170 --> 00:43:22.929
the 36%, but G Love and Special Sauce, things

00:43:22.929 --> 00:43:25.510
that I used to do. And there were actually a

00:43:25.510 --> 00:43:29.949
few songs that I had on my list from that album.

00:43:30.030 --> 00:43:33.590
I also had Stranded from Plum off of that album

00:43:33.590 --> 00:43:36.690
set aside. But no, this is the time for G Love

00:43:36.690 --> 00:43:40.469
and Special Sauce. All right. Wow. I love G Love.

00:43:40.969 --> 00:43:43.789
It's a fantastic song choice. I have never seen

00:43:43.789 --> 00:43:46.130
the movie, so I really can't comment to that.

00:43:46.969 --> 00:43:49.750
We had blues and then we had this groove of him.

00:43:50.070 --> 00:43:54.489
I don't have much that is going to complement

00:43:54.489 --> 00:43:57.670
that groove. So I'm going to pivot a little bit.

00:43:58.389 --> 00:44:01.889
But the tie I'm going to use is that super group

00:44:01.889 --> 00:44:06.070
formed for the movie that I used in my first

00:44:06.070 --> 00:44:10.070
song. And musically, this is going to be a record

00:44:10.070 --> 00:44:14.019
scratch, right turn, makes no sense. But I do

00:44:14.019 --> 00:44:16.699
want to talk about this because this is a very

00:44:16.699 --> 00:44:21.099
evenly maligned movie. The Tomatometer score

00:44:21.099 --> 00:44:25.639
is 31%. The audience score is 33%. So not a lot

00:44:25.639 --> 00:44:28.239
of fans of this movie. Didn't do very well. But

00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:30.579
when my wife and I were dating, we went to this

00:44:30.579 --> 00:44:33.099
theater up in New Hampshire that at the time

00:44:33.099 --> 00:44:36.159
was one of the first theaters that offered movie

00:44:36.159 --> 00:44:40.800
dining and drinks during the movie. Meaning you

00:44:40.800 --> 00:44:44.659
would sit in these at the time. of Cadillac chairs

00:44:44.659 --> 00:44:48.599
that reclined and you had a table in between

00:44:48.599 --> 00:44:50.679
you and you ordered dinner and you had drinks

00:44:50.679 --> 00:44:53.059
and you watched the movie at the same time. So

00:44:53.059 --> 00:44:55.280
it was very much an experience and we wanted

00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:56.900
to try the theater out, but they only had one

00:44:56.900 --> 00:45:01.679
movie playing. So we went, figuring how bad could

00:45:01.679 --> 00:45:04.920
it be. And that movie was 2002's The Country

00:45:04.920 --> 00:45:09.760
Bears, Disney movie. You had Jim Henson's Creature

00:45:09.760 --> 00:45:11.860
Shop that worked on a lot of the parts. I knew

00:45:11.860 --> 00:45:14.719
it was based around music. She's a big Disney

00:45:14.719 --> 00:45:16.199
fan. So I figured, oh, you know what? There's

00:45:16.199 --> 00:45:18.239
going to be some good music in it. And yes, there

00:45:18.239 --> 00:45:21.960
was a lot of great music in it. The Brian Setzer

00:45:21.960 --> 00:45:24.800
Trio was in that soundtrack. Some great country

00:45:24.800 --> 00:45:27.400
songs. But one of my favorite songwriters of

00:45:27.400 --> 00:45:29.820
all time, John Hyatt, commanded a lot of the

00:45:29.820 --> 00:45:32.639
songs on the soundtrack. And the last song, the

00:45:32.639 --> 00:45:36.340
big signature song for the movie. was one that

00:45:36.340 --> 00:45:38.380
when we were watching it, I was again counting

00:45:38.380 --> 00:45:42.679
the people on screen, or at least counting the

00:45:42.679 --> 00:45:45.739
voices I understood along with, because some

00:45:45.739 --> 00:45:49.019
of the bears had voices and I knew who the voices

00:45:49.019 --> 00:45:51.920
were, but then there were other actual cameos

00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:56.139
in this band. You had John Hyatt, Colin Hay from

00:45:56.139 --> 00:46:00.820
Men at Work, Don Henley from Eagles, Bonnie Raitt,

00:46:01.019 --> 00:46:05.010
Alvin Chia from the gospel group Take Six. And

00:46:05.010 --> 00:46:08.050
E .G. Daly, which if that name sounds at all

00:46:08.050 --> 00:46:11.110
familiar, it's the voice of Tommy Pickles from

00:46:11.110 --> 00:46:14.449
Rugrats. And the song is by John Hyatt. And it's

00:46:14.449 --> 00:46:16.989
called Straight Through the Heart of Love. Starts

00:46:16.989 --> 00:46:19.369
off as a beautiful ballad and then transitions

00:46:19.369 --> 00:46:23.809
into kind of a kind of a rock and upbeat, happy

00:46:23.809 --> 00:46:27.730
close to the movie. Was the movie great? No,

00:46:27.730 --> 00:46:29.710
but my wife and I still quote a couple of lines

00:46:29.710 --> 00:46:31.730
from it because at the time we were dating, you

00:46:31.730 --> 00:46:34.409
kind of remember these moments when you do things

00:46:34.409 --> 00:46:36.710
that are out of the ordinary and going to see

00:46:36.710 --> 00:46:38.690
the country bears for us was out of the ordinary.

00:46:38.710 --> 00:46:41.570
We were still young and single at this theater,

00:46:41.650 --> 00:46:44.269
but there's a running joke throughout the whole

00:46:44.269 --> 00:46:46.969
movie where this one bear would keep telling

00:46:46.969 --> 00:46:50.769
people it's a sign. And he was literally trying

00:46:50.769 --> 00:46:54.309
to put it, nail a sign into the ground. So for

00:46:54.309 --> 00:46:57.949
the last 20 something years, anytime. We're looking

00:46:57.949 --> 00:47:01.630
for an exit. I will point to the exit and be

00:47:01.630 --> 00:47:04.550
like, it's a sign. And my wife will do the same

00:47:04.550 --> 00:47:07.409
for me. So anyway, John Hyatt straight through

00:47:07.409 --> 00:47:09.690
the heart of love from the country bears. I'm

00:47:09.690 --> 00:47:12.630
going to go on a wild venture here and guess

00:47:12.630 --> 00:47:14.369
that not a lot of people have seen this one,

00:47:14.409 --> 00:47:16.030
but if you have, I'd love to hear what you thought

00:47:16.030 --> 00:47:18.849
of this song, not the movie, because I'm sure

00:47:18.849 --> 00:47:21.989
because of the audience score that not a lot

00:47:21.989 --> 00:47:24.829
of people like this one. I'm not going to lie.

00:47:25.360 --> 00:47:29.139
Never seen the movie, never heard the song, but

00:47:29.139 --> 00:47:31.559
if it's a sign, then it's a sign and you have

00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:35.260
to go with the sign. Not a problem there. I'm

00:47:35.260 --> 00:47:37.239
surprised I stumped you on a movie to be perfectly

00:47:37.239 --> 00:47:42.900
honest. Well, you know, I can't watch them all.

00:47:43.239 --> 00:47:45.380
Give me a few more years if it's not that bad

00:47:45.380 --> 00:47:47.239
and I'm sure I'll get around to it, but I can't

00:47:47.239 --> 00:47:50.059
watch them all. But I think I know where I'm

00:47:50.059 --> 00:47:53.059
going to go with this one here. And while it's

00:47:53.059 --> 00:47:56.929
not necessarily. a hard left turn it's a slight

00:47:56.929 --> 00:48:01.269
left turn i get another film where it's a bit

00:48:01.269 --> 00:48:05.610
of a cult classic and critic wise 41 percent

00:48:05.610 --> 00:48:09.289
tomatometer but it's one of those films that

00:48:09.289 --> 00:48:13.369
came out and the soundtrack was the best part

00:48:13.369 --> 00:48:16.670
of the movie and i guarantee you if you grew

00:48:16.670 --> 00:48:20.590
up in the 90s you had this soundtrack and even

00:48:20.590 --> 00:48:22.949
if you were still buying cds in the early 2000s

00:48:22.949 --> 00:48:27.030
i guarantee you you had this cd so from the tank

00:48:27.030 --> 00:48:30.349
girl soundtrack i'm gonna go with let's do it

00:48:30.349 --> 00:48:35.070
from joan jett and paul westerberg and i had

00:48:35.070 --> 00:48:37.250
i'm not gonna lie i had a bunch of songs off

00:48:37.250 --> 00:48:40.130
of the cd ready to go like right under the list

00:48:40.130 --> 00:48:42.269
right there was army of me from bjork off the

00:48:42.269 --> 00:48:45.429
tank girl soundtrack this was to me at least

00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:50.460
one of the more iconic soundtracks of that era

00:48:50.460 --> 00:48:52.719
and the fact that you know it's a comic book

00:48:52.719 --> 00:48:55.260
film or at least based on a graphic novel it

00:48:55.260 --> 00:48:59.099
looks like a comic book film so it's faithful

00:48:59.099 --> 00:49:02.179
to what the original artwork was and it's just

00:49:02.179 --> 00:49:05.599
a ton of fun and the soundtrack definitely went

00:49:05.599 --> 00:49:10.500
along with it i had actually mockingbird girl

00:49:10.500 --> 00:49:13.000
from the magnificent bastards which was scott

00:49:13.000 --> 00:49:15.860
wyland's side project from that soundtrack on

00:49:15.860 --> 00:49:19.679
my list for tonight so not it's definitely look

00:49:19.679 --> 00:49:21.900
i knew throwing the country bears in there was

00:49:21.900 --> 00:49:24.059
just going to be this bomb that exploded the

00:49:24.059 --> 00:49:27.800
the list but i like where you took it now because

00:49:27.800 --> 00:49:31.860
i know the perfect song to follow up that and

00:49:31.860 --> 00:49:35.840
it's another movie from the 90s and it's a cover

00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:40.110
song and It's a former It's Not That Bad episode.

00:49:40.210 --> 00:49:43.110
So I get to check off a lot of boxes here. So

00:49:43.110 --> 00:49:45.030
I'm going to go back to It's Not That Bad, episode

00:49:45.030 --> 00:49:49.690
68. And one of my favorite 90s comedies, PCU.

00:49:50.110 --> 00:49:52.550
And I'm going to go with the brilliant Elvis

00:49:52.550 --> 00:49:56.570
Costello cover by Mudhoney, Pump It Up. The movie

00:49:56.570 --> 00:50:02.389
had a 44 score on the tomatometer. And the audience

00:50:02.389 --> 00:50:05.460
score was 75 % because... A lot of us in the

00:50:05.460 --> 00:50:08.539
90s love this movie. And a lot of us in the 90s

00:50:08.539 --> 00:50:12.659
quote this movie because any concert I go to,

00:50:12.739 --> 00:50:15.280
if I see somebody wearing the shirt of the band

00:50:15.280 --> 00:50:18.099
we're at, I always will nudge my wife and say,

00:50:18.219 --> 00:50:20.320
this guy wore the shirt of the band we were going

00:50:20.320 --> 00:50:23.719
to go see. He's that guy. And to me, that movie

00:50:23.719 --> 00:50:26.820
is very quotable. I actually like Jeremy Piven

00:50:26.820 --> 00:50:29.340
more in PCU than I did in Entourage. I'll just

00:50:29.340 --> 00:50:32.139
say it. I love this movie. I love your episode

00:50:32.139 --> 00:50:35.809
on it. And to me, this song just sums up that

00:50:35.809 --> 00:50:37.309
movie. I know people are going to say, well,

00:50:37.389 --> 00:50:39.670
actually, no, George Clinton sums up that movie.

00:50:39.869 --> 00:50:42.469
Yes, I get it. But musically, I don't want to

00:50:42.469 --> 00:50:44.690
go with George Clinton here because coming out

00:50:44.690 --> 00:50:48.389
of Joan Jett and Paul Westerberg, Mudhoney musically

00:50:48.389 --> 00:50:51.530
fits the format a little bit more of this mixtape

00:50:51.530 --> 00:50:55.550
to kind of steer this ship that went from blues

00:50:55.550 --> 00:50:58.670
to blues and rap to country. And now we're kind

00:50:58.670 --> 00:51:00.849
of the wheel slowing down a little bit in the

00:51:00.849 --> 00:51:03.619
center here. So I think we're starting to kind

00:51:03.619 --> 00:51:05.780
of steer this ship. So that's what I'm going

00:51:05.780 --> 00:51:09.780
with. Mudhoney, pump it up from PCU. You know,

00:51:09.800 --> 00:51:12.079
every now and then when we're researching for

00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:15.440
It's Not That Bad, you stumble across little

00:51:15.440 --> 00:51:17.320
tidbits about the movie where you sit there and

00:51:17.320 --> 00:51:20.059
go, this would have made it an entirely, totally

00:51:20.059 --> 00:51:22.880
different film. And I completely agree with you

00:51:22.880 --> 00:51:25.960
that, you know, George Clinton, P -Funk All -Stars,

00:51:25.980 --> 00:51:28.579
Parliament Funkadelic, that's a phenomenal part

00:51:28.579 --> 00:51:31.960
of the film. But it... wasn't supposed to be

00:51:31.960 --> 00:51:35.360
him originally when they were making the film

00:51:35.360 --> 00:51:39.400
they had nirvana written in to the script and

00:51:39.400 --> 00:51:41.699
they were going to like you know trash their

00:51:41.699 --> 00:51:42.980
instruments at the end of the party but then

00:51:42.980 --> 00:51:45.659
they couldn't afford nirvana but their second

00:51:45.659 --> 00:51:49.380
choice still wasn't george clinton their second

00:51:49.380 --> 00:51:51.920
choice that they were looking at was the goo

00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:54.900
goo dolls apparently To borrow a quote from another

00:51:54.900 --> 00:51:59.119
movie, Office Space, yeah, about that. Then they're

00:51:59.119 --> 00:52:00.960
like, well, I'm not quite sure if anyone's really

00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:02.539
going to know the Goo Goo Dolls at that point.

00:52:02.599 --> 00:52:05.179
So that's when they went with George Clinton

00:52:05.179 --> 00:52:08.000
and Parliament Funkadelic, and it was much more

00:52:08.000 --> 00:52:10.840
fun. But PCU always reminded me of this movie

00:52:10.840 --> 00:52:14.199
Ski School. And Ski School, again, if you're

00:52:14.199 --> 00:52:16.239
looking for that kind of comedy, you have to

00:52:16.239 --> 00:52:19.280
go watch Ski School. It is infinitely, infinitely

00:52:19.280 --> 00:52:22.400
quotable, just like PCU is. Just remember, gutter

00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:25.869
is a tool. gutter is a tool. Gutter is a tool.

00:52:25.869 --> 00:52:29.510
But you went with Mudhoney. We're not going to

00:52:29.510 --> 00:52:32.329
protest. I think I know. Okay. You went with

00:52:32.329 --> 00:52:34.710
Mudhoney. You went with Mudhoney. I know exactly

00:52:34.710 --> 00:52:37.050
where I'm going to go with this one. And again,

00:52:37.110 --> 00:52:39.690
it's another movie that we covered a long time

00:52:39.690 --> 00:52:42.769
ago with a friend of mine, Simon Bennett, that

00:52:42.769 --> 00:52:44.210
came onto the show because he likes to cover

00:52:44.210 --> 00:52:48.349
the sports movies. So with a 14 % tomatometer.

00:52:49.260 --> 00:52:52.119
We have to put Sylvester Stallone behind the

00:52:52.119 --> 00:52:55.460
driver's seat with his movie Driven. We're going

00:52:55.460 --> 00:52:59.280
to go with Breakdown by Tantric. Look, the movie

00:52:59.280 --> 00:53:03.599
is not a good film. It was supposed to be like

00:53:03.599 --> 00:53:07.400
this massive three -hour long film. The director,

00:53:07.599 --> 00:53:10.139
I don't know what was going on with him behind

00:53:10.139 --> 00:53:12.519
the scenes. Go back and listen to it. We explain

00:53:12.519 --> 00:53:16.739
everything. But the soundtrack is so much better

00:53:16.739 --> 00:53:19.380
than the movie deserved. But the other fun thing

00:53:19.380 --> 00:53:22.920
about Driven was that they filmed that in Toronto.

00:53:23.630 --> 00:53:27.429
And I remember walking downtown and they had

00:53:27.429 --> 00:53:30.050
parts of the road in downtown around University

00:53:30.050 --> 00:53:33.030
Avenue cut off so they could actually film the

00:53:33.030 --> 00:53:35.650
scenes there. So, you know, I mean, that happens

00:53:35.650 --> 00:53:37.110
when you're around Toronto. You're going to come

00:53:37.110 --> 00:53:39.070
across film locations because you can't walk

00:53:39.070 --> 00:53:42.030
there. But knowing that they were filming Driven

00:53:42.030 --> 00:53:43.550
at that time, it's like, OK, this is actually

00:53:43.550 --> 00:53:46.389
really, really cool. So that's my one little

00:53:46.389 --> 00:53:48.309
connection to Driven. I walked by a filming location

00:53:48.309 --> 00:53:50.949
at one point, but it's a killer song and much

00:53:50.949 --> 00:53:54.030
better than the movie actually deserved. Absolutely

00:53:54.030 --> 00:53:59.829
love the song. Absolutely love the band. Fortunate

00:53:59.829 --> 00:54:02.349
to be friends with the drummer from the band,

00:54:02.429 --> 00:54:05.590
John Laurie of Tantric, who has been on the show

00:54:05.590 --> 00:54:08.389
before. He was on episode nine, the ultimate

00:54:08.389 --> 00:54:12.150
greatest drum tracks playlist. And Tantric is

00:54:12.150 --> 00:54:14.349
a fantastic band. They're out touring right now.

00:54:15.130 --> 00:54:17.070
Definitely go check them out when they come by

00:54:17.070 --> 00:54:19.650
your town. They still bring it live. This song

00:54:19.650 --> 00:54:22.849
kicks all sorts of ass. This song, that opening

00:54:22.849 --> 00:54:27.769
acoustic riff is iconic, especially for the 2000s,

00:54:27.769 --> 00:54:30.849
because it's got that kind of post -grunge, new

00:54:30.849 --> 00:54:33.769
metal, but it was acoustic, so it almost had

00:54:33.769 --> 00:54:36.809
a Days of the New vibe with a little bit more

00:54:36.809 --> 00:54:40.590
heft. Absolutely loved the song. Never saw the

00:54:40.590 --> 00:54:43.449
movie, so can't speak to that at all. Coming

00:54:43.449 --> 00:54:46.329
out of that vibe of song, I have the perfect

00:54:46.329 --> 00:54:50.409
follow -up. I talked about this song in episode

00:54:50.409 --> 00:54:53.650
20, the ultimate 2000s movie soundtrack. So literally

00:54:53.650 --> 00:54:56.530
the last episode of the show. So back -to -back

00:54:56.530 --> 00:54:59.030
episodes, I'm talking about this song. And I

00:54:59.030 --> 00:55:01.750
think this song deserves back -to -back episode

00:55:01.750 --> 00:55:06.969
nods. Because also in 2001, the movie Rockstar

00:55:06.969 --> 00:55:11.789
came out. And like Josie and the Pussycats, Steel

00:55:11.789 --> 00:55:16.309
Dragons, We All Die Young is a fictitious band

00:55:16.309 --> 00:55:21.469
lip -sunk very well by Marky Mark Wahlberg, but

00:55:21.469 --> 00:55:25.250
performed brilliantly by Miljenko Matijevic of

00:55:25.250 --> 00:55:28.190
Steelheart, Zach Wild of Black Label Society

00:55:28.190 --> 00:55:31.690
and Ozzy Osbourne fame on guitar, Jeff Pilsen

00:55:31.690 --> 00:55:34.670
of Dockin and Farner on bass, and Jason Bonham,

00:55:34.690 --> 00:55:37.469
son of John Bonham on drums. It's a cover of

00:55:37.469 --> 00:55:41.599
Steelheart's original. from their 1996 album

00:55:41.599 --> 00:55:43.780
Wait, but it was re -recorded for the movie.

00:55:44.539 --> 00:55:48.639
The movie had a tomatometer of 53 % and an audience

00:55:48.639 --> 00:55:52.280
score of 59%, so both fall below that threshold.

00:55:52.599 --> 00:55:55.159
I personally love the movie. I love that era

00:55:55.159 --> 00:55:58.659
of music, and I think they did a great job. Is

00:55:58.659 --> 00:56:01.400
it true to the Judas Priest story? Probably not.

00:56:01.619 --> 00:56:04.679
Is it fictionalized? Probably, but it was still

00:56:04.679 --> 00:56:07.380
a fun movie that was a great snapshot of that

00:56:07.380 --> 00:56:10.239
era, whether it's true or not. And Marky Mark

00:56:10.239 --> 00:56:13.260
pulled off the rock star vibe to the point where

00:56:13.260 --> 00:56:17.039
I was fooled. So to do that deserves a nod. Two

00:56:17.039 --> 00:56:19.280
episodes in a row, which does not happen here

00:56:19.280 --> 00:56:23.320
very often. Steel Dragons, we all die young.

00:56:24.500 --> 00:56:27.559
Oh, that's going to be tough to follow up. That

00:56:27.559 --> 00:56:30.320
is really going to be tough to follow up. Because

00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:31.820
I'm sitting here and I'm looking at my list like,

00:56:31.900 --> 00:56:34.960
OK, I could follow up with the era of the film.

00:56:35.400 --> 00:56:38.889
Maybe not. I could follow up with. You know,

00:56:38.889 --> 00:56:44.110
the rockstarness of the band. Maybe. Maybe. And

00:56:44.110 --> 00:56:46.769
you know what? It's going to be a slight left

00:56:46.769 --> 00:56:49.150
turn, but we're talking about a bigger than life

00:56:49.150 --> 00:56:54.829
rock personality on stage in Rockstar. And I'm

00:56:54.829 --> 00:56:58.070
now thinking of a bigger than life rock personality,

00:56:58.489 --> 00:57:04.010
lead singer, slight small solo detour, and a

00:57:04.010 --> 00:57:07.389
movie that I will defend to the end. Because

00:57:07.389 --> 00:57:13.010
now it has not one, but two Oscar winners in

00:57:13.010 --> 00:57:17.090
its cast. And yet this film has a 15 % tomatometer.

00:57:17.550 --> 00:57:23.070
Featuring 2023 Oscar winner for Best Actor and

00:57:23.070 --> 00:57:26.170
2023 Oscar winner for Best Supporting Actor,

00:57:26.349 --> 00:57:29.690
Ki -Hee Kwon. From the Encino Man soundtrack,

00:57:30.309 --> 00:57:33.650
You're Invited But Your Friend Can't Come by

00:57:33.650 --> 00:57:37.980
Vince Neil. I was flip -flopping between two

00:57:37.980 --> 00:57:40.219
songs off of this soundtrack. There was this

00:57:40.219 --> 00:57:42.420
one, and there was another one, which unfortunately

00:57:42.420 --> 00:57:45.420
I cannot find on Spotify, so you would have had

00:57:45.420 --> 00:57:47.679
to do a YouTube link, but that's Feed the Monkey

00:57:47.679 --> 00:57:50.400
from Infectious Grooves. But no, I think if you're

00:57:50.400 --> 00:57:52.420
coming out of Rockstar, you have to go with a

00:57:52.420 --> 00:57:55.599
rock star, and that's Vince Neil. You're invited,

00:57:55.780 --> 00:57:58.989
but your friend can't come. I love that song.

00:57:59.090 --> 00:58:02.210
I love that soundtrack. I bought that soundtrack

00:58:02.210 --> 00:58:04.369
when we were on vacation in the Outer Banks of

00:58:04.369 --> 00:58:06.750
North Carolina. The year the movie came out,

00:58:06.769 --> 00:58:10.289
I got that and Offspring's Smash in the same

00:58:10.289 --> 00:58:13.449
day. And this one had You're Invited But Your

00:58:13.449 --> 00:58:15.710
Friend Can't Come by Vince Neil. It had Queen's

00:58:15.710 --> 00:58:20.369
Stone Cold Crazy. It had High Sea, Leave My Curl

00:58:20.369 --> 00:58:23.889
Alone, the hip hop song. It had a cover of Mama

00:58:23.889 --> 00:58:26.840
Said Knock You Out. That soundtrack kicked all

00:58:26.840 --> 00:58:29.199
sorts of ass. And believe it or not, hand to

00:58:29.199 --> 00:58:31.719
God, you're invited, but your friend can't come

00:58:31.719 --> 00:58:35.880
is on my list. So I love it. You've made it easier

00:58:35.880 --> 00:58:39.440
for me to make a last pick. And I have one last

00:58:39.440 --> 00:58:42.420
song for the night. Coming out of Vince Neil,

00:58:42.559 --> 00:58:46.719
I have two directions I can go. I can go with

00:58:46.719 --> 00:58:53.019
a great song from a more serious movie. Or a

00:58:53.019 --> 00:58:56.199
great song from a very not serious movie. And

00:58:56.199 --> 00:59:01.599
I'm not sure which one to go with. Because Encino

00:59:01.599 --> 00:59:06.039
Man was certainly not a serious movie. But the

00:59:06.039 --> 00:59:12.659
song rocks. I am torn here. Because I want to

00:59:12.659 --> 00:59:16.920
end this musically on a good level. So I am going

00:59:16.920 --> 00:59:21.710
to go with a drama. But with a song that... is

00:59:21.710 --> 00:59:25.429
so absolutely perfect towards the end of a playlist.

00:59:25.769 --> 00:59:29.090
I'm going to go back to 1987. This movie had

00:59:29.090 --> 00:59:32.650
a Tomatometer score of 50 % and an audience score

00:59:32.650 --> 00:59:36.690
of 63%. Now, when people think about Simon and

00:59:36.690 --> 00:59:39.690
Garfunkel covers, they automatically go to Disturbed's

00:59:39.690 --> 00:59:42.389
cover of The Sound of Silence. And while that's

00:59:42.389 --> 00:59:46.369
amazing too, the bangles, hazy shade of winter

00:59:46.369 --> 00:59:50.590
from less than zero, to me, in my humble opinion,

00:59:51.179 --> 00:59:55.820
is the best Simon and Garfunkel cover ever, with

00:59:55.820 --> 00:59:59.599
Disturbed a very, very, very close second. And

00:59:59.599 --> 01:00:01.900
we talk about this song, Surprise Surprise, on

01:00:01.900 --> 01:00:05.159
episode 18, the ultimate 80s movie soundtrack

01:00:05.159 --> 01:00:08.300
playlist with Gomez from Playlist Wars and now

01:00:08.300 --> 01:00:13.559
the Sleavy G Show. The other song, just for wonderment's

01:00:13.559 --> 01:00:16.199
sake, for those listening, I was debating going

01:00:16.199 --> 01:00:19.880
with Tenacious D's Kickapoo. from tenacious d

01:00:19.880 --> 01:00:22.539
and the pick of destiny because of the fact that

01:00:22.539 --> 01:00:27.460
it had meatloaf and ronnie james dio on it but

01:00:27.460 --> 01:00:32.219
the song was a little more silly obviously and

01:00:32.889 --> 01:00:34.630
Coming out of Vince Neil, which you're invited,

01:00:34.730 --> 01:00:36.289
but your friend can't come, was from a silly

01:00:36.289 --> 01:00:38.650
movie, but it was more of a serious song. I felt

01:00:38.650 --> 01:00:40.969
like the bangles kind of followed that vibe a

01:00:40.969 --> 01:00:43.269
little bit because Vince Neil was bigger in the

01:00:43.269 --> 01:00:46.150
80s and early 90s. So I felt like it wasn't as

01:00:46.150 --> 01:00:48.610
far of a swing of the pendulum to go all the

01:00:48.610 --> 01:00:51.929
way up to 2006 versus trickle back a couple of

01:00:51.929 --> 01:00:55.309
years to 1987. So that was my mindset. And who

01:00:55.309 --> 01:00:57.590
knows? You might have Kickapoo to close us out

01:00:57.590 --> 01:01:01.190
for the night. Who knows? I can definitely say

01:01:01.190 --> 01:01:04.880
I do not have Kickapoo. To close this out. Although

01:01:04.880 --> 01:01:07.199
that being said, I will let you know that if

01:01:07.199 --> 01:01:10.559
you had gone with Kickapoo from Tenacious D and

01:01:10.559 --> 01:01:12.699
the Pick of Destiny, I know what I would have

01:01:12.699 --> 01:01:14.800
followed that one up with. I probably would have

01:01:14.800 --> 01:01:16.840
followed that one up with off of the Mission

01:01:16.840 --> 01:01:19.199
Impossible 2 soundtrack, Have a Cigar, which

01:01:19.199 --> 01:01:21.599
was done by Foo Fighters and Brian May. Because

01:01:21.599 --> 01:01:24.260
of course, Dave Grohl was in Tenacious D and

01:01:24.260 --> 01:01:27.360
the Pick of Destiny. But since you went Hazy

01:01:27.360 --> 01:01:32.510
Shade of Winter, I have two. ways i can go here

01:01:32.510 --> 01:01:36.809
i can go with that same kind of you know slower

01:01:36.809 --> 01:01:39.530
darker vibe kind of thing or i can just i can

01:01:39.530 --> 01:01:43.570
land the plane softly and i think i'm going to

01:01:43.570 --> 01:01:48.050
land the plane softly here with a film that taken

01:01:48.050 --> 01:01:51.389
from a a great literary work with a phenomenal

01:01:51.389 --> 01:01:54.750
cast and the soundtrack again another one of

01:01:54.750 --> 01:01:58.309
those soundtracks that i think was more known

01:01:58.309 --> 01:02:02.239
than the movie that the songs came from with

01:02:02.239 --> 01:02:06.579
a 39 % tomatometer off of the Great Expectations

01:02:06.579 --> 01:02:10.800
soundtrack. I'm going to sign us off here with

01:02:10.800 --> 01:02:14.400
Chris Cornell and Sun Shower. Nice way to kind

01:02:14.400 --> 01:02:17.400
of, you know, land the plane softly here because,

01:02:17.480 --> 01:02:22.289
you know, A, that song is haunting. It's absolutely

01:02:22.289 --> 01:02:25.389
haunting. That whole soundtrack, like I played

01:02:25.389 --> 01:02:27.349
the crap out of that soundtrack. I had like,

01:02:27.369 --> 01:02:29.489
just in this section alone, I had like three

01:02:29.489 --> 01:02:31.610
songs off of that soundtrack. There was that

01:02:31.610 --> 01:02:35.769
one, Siren from Tori Amos and Breakable by Fisher.

01:02:35.989 --> 01:02:39.230
Yeah. That's one of those CDs that was always

01:02:39.230 --> 01:02:42.730
a go -to for those slower, chill mixtapes. And,

01:02:42.730 --> 01:02:45.429
you know, I've always been a fan of when, you

01:02:45.429 --> 01:02:49.340
know, when bands finish off an album. with a

01:02:49.340 --> 01:02:52.300
bit of a slower song. Also, to your point on

01:02:52.300 --> 01:02:55.760
Simon and Garfunkel covers, don't forget Queensryche's

01:02:55.760 --> 01:02:58.820
cover of Scarborough Fair. Oh, yeah. Because

01:02:58.820 --> 01:03:01.559
that song was also really well done. Definitely.

01:03:01.579 --> 01:03:04.260
That's a great one. And I love, I think you stuck

01:03:04.260 --> 01:03:06.019
the landing on this one. I'm not going to lie.

01:03:06.239 --> 01:03:08.880
That's a fantastic way. Obviously, Chris Cornell

01:03:08.880 --> 01:03:11.760
gone way too soon. One of the greatest rock singers

01:03:11.760 --> 01:03:15.500
ever. Side B is very much a musical smorgasbord

01:03:15.500 --> 01:03:20.480
of songs. Which is cool because not often does

01:03:20.480 --> 01:03:23.820
a playlist veer as much as it does, but still

01:03:23.820 --> 01:03:26.260
kind of makes sense. And I think we nailed that.

01:03:26.320 --> 01:03:29.980
But before I go through those songs, I want to

01:03:29.980 --> 01:03:32.059
throw something out there because I still have,

01:03:32.059 --> 01:03:35.760
God, at least two dozen songs here. Jason, I'm

01:03:35.760 --> 01:03:37.260
going to ask you a question and I'm going to

01:03:37.260 --> 01:03:39.760
answer the same one myself. Do you have any songs

01:03:39.760 --> 01:03:43.300
on your list that even because Side B was kind

01:03:43.300 --> 01:03:46.349
of a little bit all over the place. But do you

01:03:46.349 --> 01:03:49.269
have any songs on your list that were so far

01:03:49.269 --> 01:03:52.489
left field? You just couldn't find a way to squeeze

01:03:52.489 --> 01:03:54.570
them in anywhere tonight, but you'd love to give

01:03:54.570 --> 01:03:56.789
a shout out to an honorable mention, if you will.

01:03:58.070 --> 01:04:02.090
Oh, I mean, we had set aside one film for our

01:04:02.090 --> 01:04:04.570
50th episode because Carrie and I absolutely

01:04:04.570 --> 01:04:07.690
love the film. And we mentioned it on the show

01:04:07.690 --> 01:04:10.789
that it's kind of the litmus test to really see

01:04:10.789 --> 01:04:12.909
who our friends are. If you like the film, then

01:04:12.909 --> 01:04:16.090
you're our people. If you're not, We have to

01:04:16.090 --> 01:04:18.909
second question everything here. The film is

01:04:18.909 --> 01:04:22.929
Repo the Genetic Opera. It is actually a complete

01:04:22.929 --> 01:04:26.010
musical that somehow stars Paris Hilton as well.

01:04:26.150 --> 01:04:28.590
But it's also got Sarah Brightman in it. It's

01:04:28.590 --> 01:04:31.849
got Alexa Pena Vega. But the song that I had

01:04:31.849 --> 01:04:35.929
set aside was Lethal Assassin as sung by Anthony

01:04:35.929 --> 01:04:38.289
Stewart Head, who a lot of people will remember

01:04:38.289 --> 01:04:41.369
from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That soundtrack.

01:04:42.309 --> 01:04:46.880
Like if you love. a rock opera, you're going

01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:49.559
to love the film. If you actually want to see

01:04:49.559 --> 01:04:52.760
Paris Hilton work well in a role, you're going

01:04:52.760 --> 01:04:55.119
to be pleasantly surprised because the role fits

01:04:55.119 --> 01:04:59.099
for her. And it's also got the late Paul Sorvino.

01:04:59.320 --> 01:05:03.280
So it's a phenomenal film and go into it with

01:05:03.280 --> 01:05:06.320
an open mind. But also just in case you went

01:05:06.320 --> 01:05:10.239
completely off the rails, I had Like a Cannonball

01:05:10.239 --> 01:05:14.840
from Minuto from the Cannonball Run. On the bottom

01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:19.119
of my list, just in case, just in case we needed

01:05:19.119 --> 01:05:22.460
to throw a curveball. All right. I love it. I

01:05:22.460 --> 01:05:27.960
love Cannonball Run 1 and 2. But if you had picked

01:05:27.960 --> 01:05:32.380
Blues Brothers 2000 before me, I had the perfect

01:05:32.380 --> 01:05:34.940
follow -up because Dan Aykroyd is part of the

01:05:34.940 --> 01:05:40.340
Blues Brothers. However, in 1987's Dragnet, him

01:05:40.340 --> 01:05:43.340
and Tom Hanks did a hip -hop song, City of Crime.

01:05:44.030 --> 01:05:48.570
And it is definitely something to be heard. Maybe

01:05:48.570 --> 01:05:50.670
not. I don't know if you'd be a fan of it or

01:05:50.670 --> 01:05:53.110
not, but I certainly own the soundtrack CD to

01:05:53.110 --> 01:05:55.570
it. And that one was I was hoping you were going

01:05:55.570 --> 01:05:57.369
to go with Blues Brothers. But when you didn't,

01:05:57.369 --> 01:05:59.469
I figured I'll take the Blues Brothers because

01:05:59.469 --> 01:06:01.929
there's really no way to squeeze in City of Crime

01:06:01.929 --> 01:06:05.289
otherwise. And the other one, fast forward a

01:06:05.289 --> 01:06:08.769
few years later, the only part that I was debating

01:06:08.769 --> 01:06:11.690
maybe fitting it in was the comic book angle

01:06:11.690 --> 01:06:16.090
of Tank Girl. and pivoting back to 1990s Teenage

01:06:16.090 --> 01:06:18.349
Mutant Ninja Turtles movie and bringing in Partners

01:06:18.349 --> 01:06:22.030
in Crime, Turtle Power, T -U -R -T -L -E, Power.

01:06:22.190 --> 01:06:25.309
But again, I felt like that was shoehorning in

01:06:25.309 --> 01:06:27.670
hip -hop because we really didn't hit a lot of

01:06:27.670 --> 01:06:30.690
spaces where hip -hop would work in this mix

01:06:30.690 --> 01:06:34.010
other than the brilliant follow -up to the Louisiana

01:06:34.010 --> 01:06:36.510
Gator Boys with G -Love and Special Sauce. So

01:06:36.510 --> 01:06:39.610
those were my two honorable mentions of the night.

01:06:40.190 --> 01:06:42.570
And looking back at Side B, it is definitely,

01:06:42.690 --> 01:06:45.630
like I said, a musical smorgasbord of songs,

01:06:45.869 --> 01:06:48.530
starting off with the Louisiana Gator Boys' How

01:06:48.530 --> 01:06:51.869
Blue Can You Get from Blues Brothers 2000, G

01:06:51.869 --> 01:06:54.269
-Love and Special Sauce' Things That I Used to

01:06:54.269 --> 01:06:57.369
Do from Dog Park, John Hyatt's Straight Through

01:06:57.369 --> 01:07:00.530
the Heart of Love from The Country Bears, Joan

01:07:00.530 --> 01:07:03.030
Jett and Paul Westerberg's Let's Do It from Tank

01:07:03.030 --> 01:07:08.050
Girl, Mud Honey's Pump It Up from PCU, Tantric's

01:07:08.050 --> 01:07:11.489
Breakdown from Driven, Steel Dragons' We All

01:07:11.489 --> 01:07:14.889
Die Young from Rockstar. Vince Neil's You're

01:07:14.889 --> 01:07:17.210
Invited But Your Friend Can't Come from Encino

01:07:17.210 --> 01:07:20.750
Man. The Bangles' Hazy Shade of Winter from Less

01:07:20.750 --> 01:07:24.210
Than Zero. And Chris Cornell's Sunshower from

01:07:24.210 --> 01:07:28.670
Great Expectations. Head over to myweeklymixtape

01:07:28.670 --> 01:07:31.130
.com to hear all the songs we've discussed in

01:07:31.130 --> 01:07:34.269
this mix through the playlist embedded on the

01:07:34.269 --> 01:07:37.670
episode page. I'm going to throw a little curveball

01:07:37.670 --> 01:07:41.119
at you here. I'm going to ask you, Brian Colbert,

01:07:41.300 --> 01:07:45.000
looking at this mixtape that both of us have

01:07:45.000 --> 01:07:48.480
put together, if you could only pick one song

01:07:48.480 --> 01:07:53.280
off of this tape, what would it be? Oh, you're

01:07:53.280 --> 01:07:57.639
killing me, dude. You're killing me. Well, I

01:07:57.639 --> 01:08:00.119
like to dish out the pain that I have to go through

01:08:00.119 --> 01:08:02.840
every episode here, so you're welcome. Yeah,

01:08:02.840 --> 01:08:08.679
this is pain. Holy crap. Man. Depending on my

01:08:08.679 --> 01:08:14.059
mood this evening, I'm going to have to go with

01:08:14.059 --> 01:08:16.920
Stroke 9, kick some ass. But now I'm throwing

01:08:16.920 --> 01:08:18.840
it right back at you. What are you doing for

01:08:18.840 --> 01:08:21.079
this one? Thank God I knew I was going to ask

01:08:21.079 --> 01:08:23.220
you this question, so I prepared for it here.

01:08:25.159 --> 01:08:28.409
It's a toss -up. And really depends on my mood

01:08:28.409 --> 01:08:30.909
at the time. If I'm in a rocking out mood, it's

01:08:30.909 --> 01:08:32.609
going to be Josie and the Pussycats, three small

01:08:32.609 --> 01:08:34.789
words. But if I'm just feeling kind of fun and

01:08:34.789 --> 01:08:37.109
goofy, it would be G -Love and Special Sauce

01:08:37.109 --> 01:08:39.670
things that I used to do. But you're right. Like,

01:08:39.689 --> 01:08:42.689
you see how tough things, you know, there can

01:08:42.689 --> 01:08:46.449
only be one can be. Also, you mentioned Dragnet.

01:08:46.970 --> 01:08:49.289
And no, I definitely wouldn't pick that rap song.

01:08:49.630 --> 01:08:52.270
I just wonder, and I feel bad for Alexandra Paul.

01:08:52.960 --> 01:08:55.159
How many times people will go to Alexandra Paul

01:08:55.159 --> 01:08:56.800
after that movie came out and go, you're the

01:08:56.800 --> 01:09:03.100
virgin Connie Swale. So wait, which one you threw

01:09:03.100 --> 01:09:05.239
out two songs right there. So there can only

01:09:05.239 --> 01:09:07.760
be one. Which one are you picking? Yeah. If there

01:09:07.760 --> 01:09:09.739
can only be one, it's Josie and the Pussycats.

01:09:09.779 --> 01:09:13.140
Three small words because a, you know, the band

01:09:13.140 --> 01:09:15.300
that they put together to make that that entire

01:09:15.300 --> 01:09:19.439
album minus the du jour tracks was killer. The

01:09:19.439 --> 01:09:23.829
entire soundtrack is fun, but that song. If nothing

01:09:23.829 --> 01:09:26.630
else under that movie sticks, it's that song.

01:09:26.829 --> 01:09:30.210
It's that good. The minute we talked about this

01:09:30.210 --> 01:09:33.010
episode, that was the first song on my list.

01:09:33.090 --> 01:09:34.670
It was always good to be the first song on my

01:09:34.670 --> 01:09:39.430
list. I freaking love that song. Well, we ended

01:09:39.430 --> 01:09:42.029
it the same way we kicked it off. Josie and the

01:09:42.029 --> 01:09:45.149
Pussycats, Three Small Words. Jason, thank you

01:09:45.149 --> 01:09:46.909
