Um, 34 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: but we're gonna do famous songs with misunderstood meanings. Trying 35 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: to think of this well, and this is where it 36 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: all came from, because on the show recently, I was 37 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: talking about this song right here, Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton, 38 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: And people usually think this song is a love song, correct, 39 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: straight up loves song. Yes, because he's like, yes, you 40 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: look wonderful. People dance their first dance. They play it 41 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: in romantic scenes of movies because again most people feel 42 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: it's a love song. But what it's really about is 43 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,679 Speaker 1: waiting for his girlfriend to get ready, like hurry up? Yeah, 44 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: like hey, yeah, you look great, let's go and again, 45 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: lots of proms. Yeah.

Is it the white person version 48 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: of a um kenana or a I think that's what 49 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know. I mean, I'm a Mexican. 50 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 1: I would assume that it's this. It's that right, right? 51 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: What is that? Write? A package of passage where like 52 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: a girl turns into a woman. Is that? You know 53 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: how you feel uncomfortable talking about I don't like talking 54 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: about girls running into women, But I think that's what 55 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: it was. Mike, Will you look up a cotillion? Because 56 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: I was a little span of guy in South Texas 57 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: and there was a group of white people that had 58 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: cotillion and I got asked to cortillion by by one 59 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: of these girls. What was your age? We were juniors 60 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: in high school, so seventeen, okay, so maybe a little 61 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: older than yeah. And so this I remember this song 62 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: was our first dance because we got there and we're 63 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: hanging out whatever, and this song came on and she 64 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: was like, this is a nice one. I liked this 65 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: and let's dance to it. But this always reminds me 66 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 1: of that Cotillion. I still don't even know what that is. 67 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: The song gets used a lot of problems and weddings, 68 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: but Eric Clapton wrote Wonderful Tonight in nineteen seventy six 69 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: while waiting for his girlfriend and future wife, Patty to 70 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: get ready for a night out. They were going to 71 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: a Buddy Holly tribute to Paul McCartney put together, and 72 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: Clapton was in the position that he was used to 73 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: of waiting while she tried on clothes. We've all been there, 74 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: like many of us. Do you know the pat the 75 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: George Harrison story. So Patty was married to George Harrison 76 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: back in the day and Eric Clapton, yeah, he's married that. 77 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: She was married to George Harrison from the Beatles when 78 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: he wrote Layla, which depending on which version you know, 79 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: I know, is that just Layla? The later version is, oh, 80 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: there's the unplugged one to that. Okay, that's what I'm 81 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: thinking of. Okay, okay, so you're thinking of the fast 82 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: year La, don't But then the slower one U unplugged 83 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: was we're almost saying the same thing back, but in 84 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: our minds we're doing it. Clapton Harrison remained good friends, 85 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: but Layla was about her, and Harrison even played at 86 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: their wedding in nineteen seventy nine. But I thought her 87 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: name was Patty, not like but you don't always put 88 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: the girls name because that writer's code. Eric and Patty 89 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: then divorced. In Patty BOYD recall recalled the Eric Clapton 90 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: was sitting around playing his guitar while I was trying 91 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: on dresses upstairs. I was taking so long, and I 92 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: was panicking about my hair and my clothes everything. And 93 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: I came down downstairs expecting him to really berrate me, 94 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: and he said, listen to this. In the time she 95 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: had taken to get ready, Clapton had written this song 96 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: right here. Turn that up. It's just how he says it. 97 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: It's because it's slow, because because if you would have 98 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: said it in normal in that if you asked me 99 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: like Green Day, all right, I said, yes, yes, you 100 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: look wonder boss. Let's go exactly. Yeah. A lot of 101 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: it's the tempo of the song. You want another one? Yes, 102 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: These are misunderstood songs that are associated with something completely 103 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: different Bruce Springsteen, Born in the USA. Most people think 104 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: this song is about being super patriotic. Yeah, like I 105 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: was born in the USA, American It's clear the opposite. 106 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honestly, I'd never really listen to these 107 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: lyrics mean either all that heir is born in the USA. 108 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: And also I believe the album cover, if I'm right, 109 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: had America flag wrapped on his hands like a bandana 110 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: or one of the two. It's back pocket. Yeah, okay, Hey, 111 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: what was the cotillion? By the way, It's like a 112 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: French thing. So the cotillion is a dance at a 113 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: debutant ball debutant. Yeah, I guess it's the same thing. 114 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: They do it for their girls that are the right 115 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: of passage. Creepiest thing you can say about. I think 116 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: that's what they said. I don't know, it's not my words. Um. 117 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: This song Born in the USA is really about casting 118 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: a critical and mournful eye on America and its involvement 119 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: in war. Bruce Pronks is gonna be like, what is happening? 120 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: Sounds massive? Turn the turn of that for one second, 121 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: I wonder what will you pull up the lyrics? Read 122 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: me the first verse I'll read you some of this 123 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: about it here. It's one of the most interpreted misinterpreted 124 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: songs ever. Most people thought it was a patriotic song 125 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: about American pride, when it actually is shameful on how 126 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: America treated its Vietnam veterans. Springsteen considered it one of 127 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: his best songs, but it bothers him that it's so 128 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: widely misinterpreted. With the rhythm, the enthusiastic chorus, and patriotic 129 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: album cover, it's easy to think, because you see all 130 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: that in your here to Do too, that it has 131 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: more to do with American pride than Vietnam shame. That's 132 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: what it says. Let's let's do the first lyrics here. 133 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: It's um born down in a dead man's town. The 134 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: first kick I took was when I hit the ground, 135 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: end up like a dog that's been beat too much, 136 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: until you spend half your life just covering up. I 137 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: mean that verse alone just kind of says it. But 138 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: we don't hear anything except born in the USA. Here 139 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: we go. Here's another lyric. Come back home to the refinery, 140 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: hiring man said son. If it was up to me, 141 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: I went down to see my v A man he said, son, 142 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: don't you understand I had a brother are at Keisan 143 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: fighting off viet Cong. They're still there, he's all gone. 144 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: He had a woman he loved in Saigon. I got 145 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: a picture of him and arms now and it goes on. 146 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: You're right, that's not a patriotic song, not at all. 147 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: But the choruses, that's crazy. I wonder who the first. 148 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: I wonder whose idea it was would be like, hey, 149 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: it's fourth of July, guys play the greatest American song, 150 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: Born in the USA. You can just tell we don't 151 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: listen to lyrics. No, we don't know, not just me 152 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: and you know, but the collective we of America. Springsteen 153 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: wrote about the problems that Vietnam veterans encounter when they 154 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: returned to America. Vietnam was the first war the US 155 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 1: didn't win, and while veterans of other wars received a 156 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: heroes welcome, those who fought in Vietnam were mostly ignored 157 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: when they were turned back home. What year did that 158 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: come out? Eighties? Right? Yes? Um, Born in the USA? Uh? 159 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: This dude who was going to make the movie Born 160 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: in the USA, but it was too associated with a song. 161 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: Springsteen helped him out providing the song Light of Day, 162 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: which became new to the movie What movies you talking about? Oh, 163 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: the original title was Vietnam, and he sent Springsteen the 164 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: script for the movie called Born in the USA, about 165 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: a rock band struggling with life and religion, which gave 166 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: Bruce the idea for the new title. Anyway, it's just 167 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: it is not what it seems. This is the epitome 168 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 1: of this subject. Like, no one thought that this song 169 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: was a protest song. If you hear thunder, it's because 170 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: it's thundering outside. We are in a storm. Dolly partons 171 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: I Will Always love You. It's not it's not about 172 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: a bodyguard. Well that's another misconception. Um. People you just 173 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: think this is a breakup song, like I Will Always 174 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: love You even though we're not together. I see that 175 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: sec is still a love song. But it's really a 176 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: song about Dolly's mentor and appreciated the time they worked together. 177 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: She we've heard this story from her, so it's well, 178 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: it's not a love song in the convention sense. So 179 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: she wrote her for a close friend or Wagner Porter Wagner. 180 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: There you go, I believe, so let me keep reading. 181 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: In nineteen sixty seven, she was invited by the country 182 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: star Porter Wagner to coast his TV show, where they 183 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: became famous for their duets, and as time, her enormous 184 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: talent eclipsed that of him, and she basically got bigger 185 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: and decided to jump off. And so she wrote the 186 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: song about the time they had together and I Will 187 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: Always Love You, not a love song about kissy, kissy, 188 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: but but a love song like hey, thanks, because they 189 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: weren't romantically involved, ye like I'll Always love you and 190 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: he and she said she just felt like she had 191 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: to leave, and he was like, okay, well, good luck, 192 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: because they thought he thought that they would just do 193 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: that forever them too. She said leaving Porter Wagner wasn't easy. 194 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: He thought she was making a big mistake and felt 195 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: she was being disloyal. Dolly Parton played the song to 196 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: Wagner the morning after she wrote it as a way 197 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: of letting him know that her mind was made up 198 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: and to express how she felt about him. Apparently he 199 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: got the message across. She said that he was in 200 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: tears and called it the prettiest song ever her but 201 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: only down in nineteen seventy three. Whenever they split, they 202 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: were together seven years on that show and just working together, 203 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: and she wrote the song and to stay here's how 204 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: I feel. I will always love you, but I gotta go. 205 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: So it is it, guess in a sense of the 206 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: breakup song too, in a way quote but I gotta go? 207 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: It was it just wasn't about love. But again, it's 208 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: not like romantic love. It's not about romantic love or 209 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: romantic breakup, but it is about loving a breakup. But 210 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: we got it wrong and the bodyguard got it wrong too. Yeah, 211 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: we refreshed my memory. What why why is that song 212 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: relevant in the movie in the Bodyguard, like they fall 213 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: in love with each other? Right spoiler alert. I don't know. 214 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: I've never seen a bodyguard. No, I just see Kevin 215 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: cost like jump out and take a bullet and then 216 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 1: he carries her off. So somebody dies, right, Like does 217 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: he carry her off? How does he take a bullet 218 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: and then he carries her off? I have no idea 219 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: how the bodyguard goes. I've never seen the bodyguard? All right, Well, 220 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: they messed it up to It was the second of 221 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: five consecutive number one country hits that she had established. 222 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: And by the way, Dolly told us that she had 223 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: never heard the whitn in Houston VERSI until she was 224 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: driving in the road and roo car correct and she 225 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: was like she had a radio on, and I was like, whoa. 226 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: It was like a verbal agreement that she had. She 227 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, whatever, and she'd forgotten all about that. 228 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: She said, yeah, they she can record it, and she 229 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: heard the final things like it's really good.

And then he put 258 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: a couple of lines in here to also make it. No, 259 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: so you can't throw a line in. You don't have 260 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: to be so literal with everything. Okay, So how is 261 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: the whiskey and beer going childbirth? Like it doesn't have 262 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be literal. Bars picked it because 263 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: it was literal. Yeah, I mean, because that's what it is. 264 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: That's so the singer said it's about the birth of 265 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: his daughter when he wrote it. Rather than write a 266 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: cheesy song that was so blatantly about birth, he hid 267 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: the songs real meaning. He said. The guys wanted a 268 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: new song to close our sets with, so I thought 269 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: closing time would be a good title. We had spent 270 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: seven years of our lives at that point, four nights 271 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: week entertaining people. That was our lives. I started realizing 272 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: the whole thing was a pun about being born, so 273 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: I made sure the rest of the thing could ride 274 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: with that double meaning. But nobody got the joke, and 275 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: I didn't bother to explain everybody would get it because 276 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: it's not an obvious joke. Yeah, it wasn't supposed to be. 277 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 1: It is had to be literal interesting, like time for 278 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: you to go back to the places you'll be from. 279 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: The room will be open till your brothers and sisters come. 280 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: I hope you found a friend. Every new beginning comes 281 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: from some other beginnings in but you die in childbirth 282 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: or don't take the girl crossover, like when Eric went 283 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: to full House Stefan no, no, just ye remember that, um. 284 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: He wrote the lyrics time for you to go out 285 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: to the places you will be from to show the 286 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: song's focus was actually on the miracle of childbirth rather 287 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: than an ode to kicking late night bar flies to 288 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: the curb. He admitted that he had babies on his 289 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: mind part way through writing it. He said, we were 290 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: expecting our first kid at birth. On the brain. It 291 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: was struck, what a funny pun it would be being 292 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: bounced from the womb. And I guess he wrote it 293 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: by himself. Want Dan Wilson and so much money. I mean, 294 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: I'm not believe in the story the only writers. I 295 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: feel like he's messing with us. I feel like it's 296 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: one of those things where like, watch this, I'm gonna 297 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: go to this interview, watch this, I'm gonna get them 298 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: real good. Whatever. Dude, there'll be a hater because you 299 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: never caught it. But now every time you hear it, 300 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: you'll know, Yeah, I'm gonna be thinking of a baby. 301 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: I mean, what's gonna do lyrics and about stirrups, Yeah, 302 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: let's go lightning crashes on that one. And again not 303 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: so much about a baby being born. He says, placenta 304 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: falls exactly. You can't. It's like a rebirth of life 305 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: in general. In many ways. Maybe I'm just not that deep. 306 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: Um every breath you take, by the police, it's a 307 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: love song. It's a stalker stalker song. Yeah, that just clicks. 308 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: People usually think the songs about being madly in love 309 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: with someone, but it's really about a guys talking your girl. 310 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: Come on, we can't do that again. A super misinterpreted song. 311 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: An obsessive stalker that sounds like a love song. Well, 312 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: the obsessive person feels like their own love and to 313 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: them it's just love right, keeps talking to people. No, 314 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm not. Some people use it their wedding song. I'll 315 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: say this too in this example. In the other examples, 316 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: a song is the message is really what you make it, right, 317 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: if you wanted to use this as your wedding song, 318 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: because you have a different meaning, and that's totally music. 319 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: Yea beauty of literature music like you can use it 320 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: in the way that it affected you, so that'd be 321 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna kind of bag on anybody for using 322 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: it as a wedding song. Maybe they just google it, 323 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: maybe before google it. If you do it now, that's 324 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: on you, like all the informations out there, and we're 325 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: telling you right now. Um, yes, some people use it 326 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: as um Again, their wedding song and first dance song. 327 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: The Police from man Sting wrote it after separating from 328 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: his first wife Francis in three He said, it's a 329 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: nasty song, really rather evil. It's about jealousy and surveillance 330 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: and ownership. Regarding the common misinterpretation of the song, he said, 331 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: I think ambigue. It is intrinsic, however, treated how you will. 332 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 1: On one level, it's a nice ambiguity. You can't really tell. 333 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: It's an honest question. By the way. Yeah, people are 334 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: a little too embarrassed. I admit they don't know what 335 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: words means. Because I'll read books. I like read books, 336 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: come across the word on what it means, I'll just 337 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: look it up. Yeah, and my wife, there's a lot 338 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 1: of words like them. I was like, what does that mean? Um? 339 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: In America, this is the biggest, the biggest hit of 340 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 1: nineteen three. It stayed number one for eight weeks, longer 341 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: than Billy Jean longer. Yeah, there's the biggest song of 342 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: how hard he goes on that last part. Every breath 343 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: you take, every move you make, every bond you break, 344 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: every step you take, every game you play, every night 345 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: you stay, it's so pissed. That's the point where it's like, 346 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: and he wrote it by himself, freaking Gordon Sumner. I 347 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: had no idea that was real. Name. Gordon Sumner reminds 348 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: me of Gordon sum Way. New Gordon Shumway is I 349 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: don't know. Type in Gordon chum Way and see it 350 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 1: comes up. I love, I believe that's ALF. I don't know. Again, 351 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: I'm okay with asking a question here? What an ALF 352 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: stand for? Right? It was like, yeah, Gordon Shumway is, 353 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: it's alf? It is alf ALFI name is Gordon?

Lad, that's a good Mike. 355 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: We can play a game like that in the acron 356 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: for Alien life form. Yeah, man, freaking Willie Tanner was 357 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: the dead about ALF. I haven't either, But freaking Gordon Shumway. 358 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: That's awesome. That great Mike, like said, I happened to 359 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: know Gordon, you know so much that ran checked out? 360 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: Yeah right, and I was. It was so obscure that 361 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: I wasn't better google that. How sure of that? Were you? Beast? 362 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: I like, okay, good, like, I give it an on 363 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: a roll shutness, But I went straight to ALF. I 364 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: wasn't a because that was so long ago and it 365 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 1: could have been mixed up over the years. Yeah, ALF 366 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: was cool because there was the show. I liked ALF, 367 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: the TV show that it had a cartoon that was 368 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 1: pretty good and they developed late and I talked show 369 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: for it and and they did it like on Nick 370 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: at Night. But it never really blew up. I think 371 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: they wanted to go network with it at first. But yeah, 372 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: alf ALF was done um in the Air tonight by 373 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: Phil Collins. I mean now I'm starting to think this 374 00:20:48,600 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: is definitely about global warming in it. Ok. People usually 375 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: think the song is about Phil Collins seeing a man 376 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: let another man drown. What was the lyric that made 377 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: people think that? Mike, Oh that one? Well, if you 378 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand. 379 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: I've seen your face before, my friend, but I don't 380 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: know if you know who I am. Here you go 381 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: I sea. So people thought this was about like like 382 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: you and Semisonic, very simple. They thought it was about 383 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: a bar, but no it's not. It's really a song 384 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: with no meaning. I hate that the myth that people 385 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: believe Phil Collins wrote the song after watching a man 386 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: let someone else drown it's a big misinterpretation because Phil 387 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: Collins says it's about nothing. He said the song was 388 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: written without any specific meaning behind it. He drew inspiration 389 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 1: from his recent divorce at the time, but most of 390 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 1: the lyrics were improvised, but that didn't stop people from 391 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: spreading one of the most famous urban legends in music history. 392 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: The legend goes that Collins wrote the song after watching 393 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: a man let someone else drown, which was lyric well, 394 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: if you were drowning, I would not lend a hand, 395 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 1: And according to the myth, Collins later found the guilty 396 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: man at a concert. There's different versions of the story too, 397 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 1: and all of them are nutty, because when you have 398 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: a song that means it means nothing, you can do that, right, Yeah, 399 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: like you can just say it's about whatever. One of 400 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: the versions has a friend of Phil Collins taken the 401 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: place of the drowning man, and another has Collins refusing 402 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: to rescue a drowning man who raped his wife. They 403 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: just got more absurd as they go. Don't go, well, 404 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: what's not true. Now that's some fiction story right there. 405 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: He came back and wrote that song. No, no, no, no, 406 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: it's not true. You're missing the whole. Why do well, 407 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: that's kind of that's kind of how we write songs 408 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: at the big indiot edio play chords or and I'll 409 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: just start yelling a bunch of words to the melody 410 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: and it's nothing, yes, improvised, and then we kind of 411 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: go back and adjusted to make money out of it. Uh. Yeah. 412 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: The myth has submitted itself in popular culture, and even 413 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: was referenced in Stand Eminem Stand. You might remember these 414 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: lyrics right here from Eminem standing Go ahead. You know 415 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: the song by Phil Collins in the Air of It 416 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: Tonight about that guy who could have said that other 417 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 1: guy's drowning, but the then feel so at all that 418 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: at it, so we found him. That's kind of how 419 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: this is. Who could ar rescue me for drowning? Now 420 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: it's too big, I'm on a thousand downars now I'm drowsy. 421 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: One was allowed? Why does Eminem say in the Air 422 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: of the night, because it's about to say I thought 423 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: the song was called in the Air Tonight, But it's 424 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: Stands saying it, so it could have been like him 425 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: just getting it wrong. I thought I'd got a wrong 426 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: all these years. It's about to go wow, breakthrough. I 427 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: thought it was called in the Air tonight. That's crazy man. Yeah, 428 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: but even if even he had it wrong, well standard. 429 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: One of my favorite bands that no longer really is 430 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 1: a relevant band is r E M. Oh yeah, this 431 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: one goes out to the one I love, goes out 432 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 1: to another one of those songs. Well must piple things 433 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: a love song obviously because it's just one so literal, like, 434 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: goes out to I love like a request. Yeah, that's 435 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: really about using someone over and over again. It was 436 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: our first hit, by the way, this is the first 437 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: r M hit, this one who goes out to the 438 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: one I love?

I wasn't listening to ori 440 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 1: M No. I was six or seven years old. But 441 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: there was that generational gap where like like my brother 442 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: he knew r M and then I liked r M. 443 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: The later r M. Yeah, when r M hit for me, 444 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 1: it was losing to my religion was the big video. Uh. 445 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: This was their first hit song. It's not a love song. 446 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: He describes the song. That's about how people use people 447 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: over and over and over again, and until this line 448 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 1: here a simple prop to occupy my time. Is the 449 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: lyric that goes, that's what I'm showing. That's the one 450 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: that sets us straight right there.

I 479 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: got your skirt a little more your world? To me, 480 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: it's really about a next boyfriend peeping at a woman 481 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: from a window. Because he does say that in the 482 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: verse you've got your ball, you got what? He goes 483 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 1: right there, bones on the bottom. I'm watching there your 484 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: window up, stare and you wear nothing.

The song 491 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: is about a boyeuristic man. Many people can see it 492 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: as a love song and fail we'll see the true 493 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: meaning behind it. On Storyteller's Dave Matthews mentioned that the 494 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: song was written from a peeping tom perspective and no 495 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: one ever got that before. And if that's not enough, 496 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: he says, hike up your skirt a little more to 497 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: show your world to me. But again, if you're not 498 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: being literal with it right, it could mean anything like 499 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: HIGs a little more, share world. It could be like 500 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: exposed me to different feelings and thoughts. Skirt covers one thing, 501 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: but the skirt of the world could be a beef 502 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: skirt could be a fahita. Um. I remember when my 503 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: brother learned this on guitar and he was so proud 504 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: and he's like, dude, sing it, you know all the words, 505 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: and we sang it. We had the whole family there, 506 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: and I was like, hock up, you're skirled more. My 507 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: dad was like stop that. Stop that next song so 508 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: so mean, even says I'm the king of the castle, 509 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: You're the dirty rascal, A scroll a little bit more. 510 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: Mike by the way Day brought this song by himself, 511 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: But what does that mean? Crashing from better by himself? 512 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: This people be making so much money solo writing these 513 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: songs by David John Matthews crashed into me. What's he 514 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: meaning like, let's get our worlds together? Like? But again 515 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: he put our worlds together? Is also you can't mean anything. 516 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: These guys are so artistic. Slide by the Google dolls 517 00:29:51,560 --> 00:30:06,719 Speaker 1: wake up when all I've no clue. People usually think 518 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: it's about being in love. It's really about unplanned pregnancy. 519 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. The song is about dealing with an unplanned pregnancy, 520 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: withlyterrics like I want to wake up where you are 521 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: or I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete. 522 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: It's understandable if you overlook that as a song that's 523 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: about pregnancy. Um oh, he says I'm gonna what Yeah, 524 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: he does say I'm gonna let it slide. Does that 525 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: mean like, all right, I'll just let this one slide. 526 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: We got the baby, We're gonna We're gonna do this. 527 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: Listen to this lyrics don't you love the life you killed? 528 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: Meaning meaning like his your priest is on the phone, 529 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: your father hit the wall, your mom disowned you. I'm 530 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: plant pregnancy, or maybe he's talking about her life like 531 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: like he may have. She may have killed her own 532 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: life by being pregnant, like like not literally, like figuratively, 533 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: like your life is over and now you have to 534 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: raise a kid. The life you know you knew is done. 535 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: Johnny Resnick explained it during a storytellers slide is actually 536 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,479 Speaker 1: about these two Catholic teenage kids and a girlfriend gets pregnant, 537 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: and they're deciding whether they should get an abortion, or 538 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: get married or just go on. And I don't think 539 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people get that. The singer described it 540 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 1: as a nuts so uh sad tale about some hard choices. 541 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: I think about that. It's pretty deep. It sounds a 542 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: little ditty. We listened to all these songs not thinking 543 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: about any of this. American Pie by Don McClaine. I 544 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: can't remember. You'll know what this is about. That's the 545 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: it's the death of the crash part of it, right you, 546 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: So you're right. Mostly it's it encapsulates that whole era, 547 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: and that's and that plane crash um the fifties, right, 548 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: and not even the year, but so much but that era, 549 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: and what kind of was the exclamation point on the 550 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: end of it? Was the plane crash with Richie Vallen's 551 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: the Big Bop or Buddy Holly, and it's referenced in 552 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: the song. But it um, I mean Jam right, Jam 553 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: sang this will be the day that and the day 554 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: that the music died, literally is the day that that 555 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: plane crashed with all the music in it. But he 556 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: said that the lyrics were very ambiguous again, which means 557 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: I know what it means now, Like ambiguity means yeah, 558 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: it's doesn't make much sense. Can't tell really like you 559 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: don't know. I could go by the way people ask 560 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: me if I left the lyrics open to ambiguity. Of course, 561 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: I didn't want to make a whole series of complex 562 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,959 Speaker 1: of statements. He put the song's original manuscript for auction 563 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: at Christie's call. On the songs, I'm gonna guess it's 564 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: he wrote by himself too, these guys the six minute song, 565 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: Mike is it so so when he there are more 566 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: people that he's referencing, right, like when he says the 567 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: gesture again, I think it's just a time and characters, right, 568 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: And I feel like these characters are just different artists. Well, 569 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: I never thought about that. They were all specific artists, 570 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: Like I think the jesture maybe would be Bob Dylan. 571 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: You could be honest, something I don't know. Might we 572 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: do with that? Hi the gesture and miss American Bob Dylan? 573 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: Because if you're right about that, you can ride about 574 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: the ones to Jackie Nimble Jack be quick obviously John 575 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: Lennon John Jack huh Don McLean wrote by himself, Oh, 576 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: speaking of John Lennon, Imagine, I mean, I mean we 577 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: all know what this is about, right, go ahead, imagine 578 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: what the world would be like with without these certain things. 579 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: Most people think that it's a song about peace and 580 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: global unity. Kind of what are you kind of because 581 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: he's just kind of saying, like, imagine if we didn't 582 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: have these people in power doing certain things religion, politics, 583 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: everything else, it's actually about WiFi dial up a O 584 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: L didn't even existence you got me. That's funny. It's 585 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: uh more so because it's a slower tone. People think 586 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: it's super peaceful. It's not. It's like a song about 587 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 1: revolutionary ideas of how to achieve peace but doing it 588 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: through radical ways. But he was smart enough to go, well, 589 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: if I slow it down introdud as a ballad, people 590 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: are gonna feel like I'm hugging the world more than 591 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: screaming at the while does he say that I'm I'm 592 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: I'm not. Why did he not say it like that? 593 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: Because it's true? And then us we're all like the 594 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: slow song, So I like it's the song is actually 595 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: about the Communist manifesto. And now I'm reading earlier that 596 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 1: was just me musing myself. That's pretty good. Most people 597 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: think that ballads the ballad imagines about pople putting usie 598 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: their differences, but it's more political. According to Rolling Stone, 599 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: he once described the song as virtually the Communist manifesto. 600 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: And even though I'm not particularly a communist and do 601 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: not belong to any movement, the song clearly asked the 602 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: listener to imagine a world without religion or possessions, but 603 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: lin It admitted he intentioned admitted he intentionally trying to 604 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: sugarcoat his message with the song. The sweetness of the 605 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 1: song like sonically it's like, oh imagine, it's a big 606 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: hit almost everywhere in a beautiful song. Because it's anti religious, 607 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: anti nationalistic, anti conventional, anti capitalistic, and because it's well soften. 608 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: It's like honey, but this video is so good too. 609 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: The white piano and uh Sarah McLaughlan Angel. Yeah, it's 610 00:35:55,719 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: about puppies, spies. Hi, Hi, Sarah, And for the low 611 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: low prize of you can help Sparky.

Um the song most people think about angels 618 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: and losing someone, it's really about heroin addiction. Yeah, more 619 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: specifically the guy from Smashing Pumpkins who died. Really who 620 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: was that? The keyboartist he and I'll read a quote. 621 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: I went to a cottage north of Montreal to relax 622 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: and write. I read about the Smashing Pumpkins keyboard player 623 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: who had odd in a hotel room. She wrote this 624 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,240 Speaker 1: about a song about the drug addict struggles with the world. 625 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: The angel symbolizes the drugs the addict gives into repeatedly 626 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: in the arms of an angel meaning the drugs, keep 627 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: On said. The story shook me because although I had 628 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 1: never done drugs like that, I felt a flood of 629 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 1: empathy for him and the feeling of being lost, lonely 630 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: and desperately searching for some kind of release, and that 631 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: release was drugs, or, as some people would have it, 632 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: their angel. Wow. Crazy, right, People use this one in 633 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:39,720 Speaker 1: like funerals, right this sure? Maybe because angel is literally 634 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 1: it's taking the little interpretation I've never heard in a funeral, 635 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: but it would make sense. Wow, this is I mean 636 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: that changes this one. I mean that song is. This 637 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 1: song has always been beautiful to me, but it's always 638 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 1: been like, I don't know it's about pretty, but wow, 639 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: I mean I'm reading it now and like, yeah, that's 640 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 1: pretty deep. Spend all your time waiting for that second chance, 641 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: for a break that would make it okay. There's always 642 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: some reason to feel not good enough, and it's hard 643 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. I need some distraction. Oh, 644 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:13,320 Speaker 1: beautiful release memory seep from my veins. There's the hotel 645 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: room too, and maybe empty Oh would wait list and 646 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: maybe I'll find some peace tonight. Just a different feeling 647 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 1: about it when you know what you're talking about drug 648 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 1: addiction and drugs from this dark hole. You're right in 649 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 1: the chorus in the arms of an angel, fly away 650 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: from here, from this dark, cold hotel room and the 651 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: endlessness you fear. Wow, Oh, another super sad one. Do 652 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 1: you think that one's gonna get you? Sarah McLaughlin wrote 653 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 1: that one on your own too. Maybe they're just writing 654 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 1: one person, but surely um the next one, don't cry 655 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: Hansen and Bob.

I have no idea tune Bob 657 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: and now there's more in verses that I don't remember 658 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: what they say. Most people think it to catch you 659 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 1: pop song that really means nothing, not true. It's really 660 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 1: about how everything we love will be gone before we 661 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: know it. What does mbop have to do with that? 662 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 1: They made the word up and it really isn't just 663 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: made up word. They said bop represents a frame of mind, 664 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: and mbop there gone like mop, It's gone like who 665 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 1: was gone? Oh? Just like that? Yeah, okay, because Bob's 666 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 1: a word. The whole song is about the fact that 667 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: almost everything in your life will come and go quickly. 668 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: You've got to figure out what matters and grab onto 669 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: those things. Bore. They don't really love doing that song though, no, 670 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: and then they do. They do, but they don't like 671 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 1: everyone has respect for that one song that did it 672 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 1: for them, but it's man, it's gonna be hard when 673 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 1: that's the one you sing all the time. Well, they 674 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,280 Speaker 1: played our million dollars show, and I like those guys, 675 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: and I know Tyler a bit Taylor Taylor.

And that's a 683 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: hard that's a hard question for you. And it just 684 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: comes right up to me and asked me. And I 685 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,479 Speaker 1: respected that he asked me straight up. I just didn't 686 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: get on and not play it. But at the same time, 687 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: everybody came to see Bob that was coming to that show. 688 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: Is that what you told him?

They didn't bring storytellers back with 726 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: like Ariana Grande and be like, Ariana, what is them? 727 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 1: When you say you like my hair just bought it? 728 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: What do you mean by like?

Of course we made a melody. They gave 733 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,800 Speaker 1: us the beat and we went do do do, and 734 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: then we had to fit words over and those twos 735 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 1: hav't to fit because I remember learning that like Pearl 736 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 1: jam Eddie Vetter wrote like Betterman or something fifteen years 737 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: before the band even got together. Oh yeah yeah, and 738 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: they were learned that from storytellers. Well, it's like kind 739 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 1: of Crows. When they were the himalay Is. I didn't 740 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: know that. Hey we look up that again. I could 741 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 1: miss this up there. His band was the Himalayas. Oh, 742 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: it could have been a different mountain range. It's been 743 00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 1: O was it Everest? Let's see rid because the last 744 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 1: thing I wanted to leave something up here. That's wrong. 745 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: But but some of those songs were even on that record, 746 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 1: the first record, The County Crows, Berkeley, California. First name 747 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 1: now type in um County Crows, um original band there 748 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: is there is the himalay Is.

No way American rock band between they're 750 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: best known for starting their career is that's the base. 751 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,399 Speaker 1: This is the Himalayas doing round here. Wow, that's I mean, 752 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: that's a different sound for sure. Yeah, so again they 753 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: had written that song and cut it on there. We 754 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,399 Speaker 1: can do it. We can do a whole Bobby cast 755 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: on this, on the bands that were before the band. 756 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 1: We just break down all of that Storytellers Live CD.
