Yeah, I know 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.480 hip hop from the early two thousands and that one 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:04.199 Talking Head song punk rock from the late nineties early 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.959 two thousands, and that's sort of arguably all the punk 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.800 rock that you know is was pop music was pop? Yeah, ye, 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.720 but I'm talking, I don't know. I don't know what 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:18.280 like it. Like Leona Lewis said, and I didn't know 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:19.920 who that was. He's like this one you might know, 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:23.640 Leona Lewis, I wrote this song that's like the graduation sound. 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.400 He told the story and then they played the song, 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:29.959 and then I knew all the songs. I just didn't 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:31.520 know a lot of the people she was on, like 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:35.520 not America's got talent or idle, but she I think 0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:39.880 she's from She's a Simon Cowell Discovery, I believe. Okay, wait, 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.000 what what was the one he wrote, bleeding love? That's 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:45.400 the joint? Is that the one he wrote bleeding love? 0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:49.280 Johanna saying bleeding that's the joint? Okay, I'm gonna play that. 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:58.560 I'm gonna play that d D stadium. Women were lying 0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:06.439 around me just like we got Wait, So, how does 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:09.960 this dude tap into the mind of like female so hard? 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.040 I think he's just a amazing songwriter. He just but 0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:18.600 he's writing like ants, like power anthems for He says 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.120 that he's able to when he because I was like, 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:25.800 sometimes when I am doing stand up, I've done the woman, 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:30.880 the mind of the woman. If you've done something so 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:34.440 many times, you're almost on autopilot. You try not to be, 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:38.040 but sometimes you're like, I've told this story upwards of 0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:41.680 three four hundred times. I know where the punchlines are. 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.920 I know how to tell it. That you're thinking of 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:49.200 other things. You're like in your head. You're speaking to 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:52.160 an audience and you're thinking, you're in your head. You're 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:56.480 like making dinner plans, you're planning things for the night. 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:58.800 You're like, Oh, I forgot to do this or whatever 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:00.640 it is. I'm like, does that up to you? He's like, 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.960 it happens to me so much that sometimes I'll be 0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:10.240 writing other songs while I'm performing a song WHOA, and 0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:15.480 I'm like, Oh, that's a whole other He's just coolly 0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:20.040 telling you I'm actually a genius, actually like super talented 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.160 I am, because I'm like, oh, I'm not writing other 0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:26.240 stand up bits, think like a great idea for a movie. 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:29.680 I'm literally going like, how much should I drink tonight? 0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:34.200 But are we really going to go out tonight? What 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:38.880 cheeseburger are we getting right after this? So many double 0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:42.920 patties am I going to have for the single chunky 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:45.560 one or the double smash? What are we doing tonight? 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:47.920 But even the thing that's tripping me out is he's 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:51.520 not like writing from for himself. He knows he's writing 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:55.000 for other people. But here's here's what I think. Dude, Okay, 0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:57.440 you're the writer, go ahead, put us in the bin. 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:00.840 This is what's fascinating is that, like he's still a 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.440 guy writing songs that women are singing. And if you 0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:05.600 if you go back and you listen to like old 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:10.240 songs about like a woman who's singing certain lyrics about 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:13.120 how she misses her boyfriend or whatever, and a guy 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:19.040 wrote it's it's I won't. It's not a guy writing 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:22.320 for a woman. It's a guy writing for what he 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:25.160 wants a woman. He wishes a woman was thinking or saying, 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:31.000 in his defense, a lot of these songs he's writing 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:34.960 with them, so he they'll go, he'll go to their studio, 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:37.320 they'll come to him, whatever the case may be, and 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:40.560 then they'll be like, he wrote in a Dell song 0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:44.960 and I guess he told the story on stage that 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:48.280 she was like, uh, I don't blank it on the 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.360 name of it, but she was just like over it, 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:55.920 and she that's it essentially. Yes, He's like, okay, let's 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.800 write that song. You're like over it or I'm totally 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:00.960 blanking on the name of the song whatever, Yeah, but 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:04.080 I get it. But yeah, and then he really liked 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.240 it's just like, okay, let's write that song. And then 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:08.720 they create the song to get so she's like, I 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:14.480 don't feel gad, I've got ib s. B It's a 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:16.920 whole bunch of bs. Okay, Okay, it's a bunch of 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:20.960 b s. Rumor has it? Oh? Yeah, it was rumor 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:24.400 has it the Adele song? Blake has it? You might 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:27.320 want to cue up Adele rumor has it? Okay? She 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:29.560 was like, she was like, oh, gun on, has it 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:31.280 that I did this? Rumor has it that I did that? 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:33.600 I didn't do any of this, but rumor has it? 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:36.680 And then he was like, wait, wait, shut up, shut 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:40.520 up quick with that guy, though, shut up, shut up, 0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:45.160 rut has it? Shut up? Stop talking. Can you imagine 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.080 calling your friends he was a songwriter and being like, yeah, 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:53.280 last night my my daddy U shut out. He got 0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:56.520 hit the song and mt elevator shaft and he's like, 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:58.840 shut up, shut up. And then he was just like 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:05.720 falling what nothing? Nothing, dude? Are you writing a song 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:09.040 about my dad falling into elevator? That's like the greatest 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:15.320 scene from extras Memory when it's David Budgy, little fat man. 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:18.280 It is amazing. We'll post that first. Okay, well, I'm 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:20.960 gonna play a little bit of rumor has it? Thank you. 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:27.159 Let's see. Oh, he's out at the door.

Well, you know it 0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:43.679 when it hits the rumor has it? Damn? I really 0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:46.280 I just played all the intros and he has some 0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:49.840 long intro. So yeah, he's taking him on a ride. 0:17:50.119 --> 0:17:54.520 What was crazy is when did these songs? When he 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:59.520 did these songs, they they all sounded like a one 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:02.160 Republic song, right, They all said, I mean, of course 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:04.120 he's the lead singer for In Republic, so it makes sense. 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:08.200 But they all it took like that female voice or 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:10.560 that other artists voice and put their stink on it. 0:18:10.600 --> 0:18:14.120 That made it feel totally different. Like when he sang Beyonce, 0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:17.199 It's sure as hell didn't seem like a Beyonce like 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:20.720 her halo. It felt like a totally different side. But 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:23.760 she made it her own. Yes, So here's his list, 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:28.359 uh that he's written songs for Adele, I'm gonna Leona Lewis, 0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:33.320 Miley Cyrus, Ed Sheeran, Jonas Bros. Jennifer Lopez, Camila Cabello, 0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:36.440 Lady Gaga, Maroon five, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:40.720 I mean every person is the fattest paycheck as well, 0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:44.399 Oh my god, and that kind of part of the party. 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:48.000 It's like, hey man, you wrote this smash hit for 0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:50.600 this person, so we're gonna give you one for that person. 0:18:50.760 --> 0:18:52.919 Like and then if you it's like a batting average. 0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:57.840 If you kill it enough, you just keep getting opportunities, right, Yeah, yeah, 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:01.679 that's right. If you make a huge hit for Taylor Swift, 0:19:01.760 --> 0:19:04.119 then all of a sudden Ariana grand Is like, but 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.879 also me write one for me. I know, I just 0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:08.880 kind of wish you would reach back a little bit, 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:11.680 like just some smaller artists like get like little Zan 0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:14.640 and like just drop a real, real banger on him 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:17.800 and just put him in an if that's necessarily his lane, 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:21.560 but it could be. All you need is at the 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:23.520 podcast to yourself for a moment to kind of make 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:26.880 that player.

He needs a hit right now. So if 0:19:50.800 --> 0:19:54.800 you could just write him a big banger and get 0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:57.159 him to the top of the charts, I think the 0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:00.439 whole community would be very, very excited or that. So 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:03.280 thank you every we can turn up now. Oh we're back, 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:17.120 We're back. You're okay, all right? I mean, it wasn't 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:19.200 that the whole thing with that what the Fox say 0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:23.399 song is that like that was some huge producer and 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.800 then it was basically like the Fox kids love it, 0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:29.399 kids love it. It was some talk show in Sweden 0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:30.720 or something. They were like, do you think we could 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:34.359 make a pop song about almost nothing? And they're like sure, 0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:36.320 and then they did it and it became like a smash. 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.400 Who wrote that though did not know that that's the story. 0:20:39.400 --> 0:20:42.080 I think it was some big producer really, and they 0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:45.360 did it as on a lark, which is a very 0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:50.720 fun word use, like they actually like did the thing 0:20:50.760 --> 0:20:54.959 is that they were joking about? Well, see it's that easy, 0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:57.280 I guess, so it's not hard. He wrote a song 0:20:57.359 --> 0:21:00.600 for Black Pink that is that Korean all girl band. Yeah, 0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:03.879 they're they're super big k pop bands. So I was 0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.399 on some talk show. I think it was like Cordon 0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:10.080 or something and uh oh no, I think it was 0:21:10.359 --> 0:21:13.119 Frank show. I don't know, one of those talk shows, 0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:16.399 and I was one of the guests, doesn't even know, 0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:19.600 but they were the musical guest and so the musical 0:21:19.640 --> 0:21:22.600 guests is on a little later, So I'm up first 0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:25.679 and my Twitter.
