Speaker 1: Welcome to episode one six one of the Bobby Cast,
Speaker 1: And this one's gonna be about artists who hate their
Speaker 1: biggest hits, which is interesting. I told you about this
Speaker 1: yesterday and I was like, I want you to hop
Speaker 1: on because this is a good one. I like it.
Speaker 1: Do you know any of these? Um, I was trying
Speaker 1: to guess something. I would think Red Hot Chili Peppers
Speaker 1: would come to mind, like under the Bridge. They don't
Speaker 1: like playing that one. I would think not right, Oh,
Speaker 1: you don't know. I don't know is that on here?
Speaker 1: Because every time I've been to like ten Chili Pepper shows,
Speaker 1: they played every time. Yeah, and the whole place is like,
Speaker 1: I don't have a wound up. That's their smash, right,
Speaker 1: Like that's their big song to them started. I think
Speaker 1: that was their moment song. But I don't know if
Speaker 1: it was their biggest song, because I would think that's
Speaker 1: something like, um aeroplane, something that we don't think is
Speaker 1: the biggest. We're hardcore Chili Pepper fans were actually popped
Speaker 1: the mainstream because it was in Deep's butt head pop
Speaker 1: Readio played the crap out of it, So I would
Speaker 1: think it'd be something like it's my aero plane. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so not to totally shift at the beginning of this,
Speaker 1: but I would think like that or that was something
Speaker 1: that came to my mind. Brian Adams, everything I do,
Speaker 1: I do it for you know what I mean? Like
Speaker 1: his smash But why would you want to sing that
Speaker 1: it's the Robin Hood song because you gotta get the
Speaker 1: people what they want. So who are these people? I'm
Speaker 1: so curiou You're gonna know one of these easy as
Speaker 1: soon as I play this note, the first one. You
Speaker 1: and I've talked about a lot. That's not the right one.
Speaker 1: Hold on songs the same name, No no here, Oh
Speaker 1: of course Radiohead, Creep, they don't play it. This is
Speaker 1: the one that's the most legendary to me of a
Speaker 1: massive band that will not play their biggest song. But
Speaker 1: this is the a we're so cool, we don't need
Speaker 1: to play that song. Like everyone likes that song. But
Speaker 1: that's I'm not even our best song. It's not who
Speaker 1: we are anymore. And this is what got me on
Speaker 1: the Radiohead. But I agree with them, like there's a
Speaker 1: lot of good radio okay, and that's not it doesn't
Speaker 1: it doesn't sound like that. Yeah, yeah, I agree, but
Speaker 1: still that's that's what a lot of people our age
Speaker 1: in their thirties got into radio Head four because we
Speaker 1: heard this song. We're like, whoa that weird and that
Speaker 1: and if I'm right too it again, I'm just going
Speaker 1: from memory here. I don't know if it's right in here.
Speaker 1: But that was accident. Really, yeah. I love those fun
Speaker 1: facts like that, Like some he was just popping his
Speaker 1: guitar and the producer said it was all I think
Speaker 1: it was rolling, and they're like, oh, that works there,
Speaker 1: I have something like that fun fact. And you're a
Speaker 1: girl in college. She was at a club and saw
Speaker 1: Tom York and like it was like a jam pack
Speaker 1: club and she looks right now and she goes, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, oh my gosh, you are and he just
Speaker 1: put his finger up like oh, I don't say don't
Speaker 1: like just no, don't don't even say a word, and
Speaker 1: then walked off. She was it was amazing. Radio Heads
Speaker 1: never liked the song. I'll read you from this article.
Speaker 1: Tom York would say that it's crap and had short
Speaker 1: shrift for whatever that means. And his short shrift, I
Speaker 1: don't know, dude, he's from the country. For fans who
Speaker 1: asked to hear it in concert. This song has also
Speaker 1: caused legal trouble with both The Hollies and there's a
Speaker 1: song called The Air that I Breathed suit over melodics
Speaker 1: similarities and Landa del Rey and Creep became a mainstay
Speaker 1: in the mid nineties, and they didn't want to play.
Speaker 1: They went several years that performing at all, and they
Speaker 1: did it finally in that does say it's a little
Speaker 1: something about them, like they should respect that song because
Speaker 1: that really got the whole world listening. Yeah, that's what
Speaker 1: launched Radiohead. I wouldn't be able to know those all
Speaker 1: those cool other songs if it wasn't for this maybe,
Speaker 1: but I would say yes, because that was basically a
Speaker 1: pop song. A right here we go. Uh. This is
Speaker 1: one theory on Radioheads guitar right um, the guitar crunch
Speaker 1: before the chorus and radio Heads creeps from guitarist Johnny
Speaker 1: Greenwood intentionally trying to sabotage the song. Oh, A lot
Speaker 1: of theories about it, but I don't know about that one.
Speaker 1: I don't know if by that that's one that I
Speaker 1: just read this, but I know that it wasn't supposed
Speaker 1: to be in the song like it when it was written,
Speaker 1: it wasn't fixing love. So that's one. They don't like
Speaker 1: playing that song rarely do they only a couple of
Speaker 1: times in the past set of years. The other one
Speaker 1: that I've played was this one that's also create TLC cret.
Speaker 1: They won't play it. Well I think still well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think they play without Left Eye. Yeah, but even then,
Speaker 1: you remember a song, yeah, vaguely. I mean, I wasn't.
Speaker 1: This wasn't my time to like listen to radio. I
Speaker 1: was cool then, dude, I was listening to like, yeah,
Speaker 1: other stuff. The song didn't even almost make it out
Speaker 1: of the studio. It's about women who cheat on their
Speaker 1: cheating partners in order to make them feel jealous, like
Speaker 1: you're cheating on me? How much cheat on you? In
Speaker 1: the documentary The Last Dates of Left Eye, she claims
Speaker 1: she was so adamant the song should not see the
Speaker 1: light of day that she threw into a black tape
Speaker 1: over her mouth or in the music video don't even
Speaker 1: sitting during it, and they were like, we don't even
Speaker 1: want to sing. They hate doing it doing it. I
Speaker 1: saw a show about them like not making any money. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: so there's a whole podcast. Well, the guy that does
Speaker 1: the it's great. It talks about her and her story
Speaker 1: and Andre rise in her burning his house down and
Speaker 1: on Your Rising, Yeah that was a bad relationship. They
Speaker 1: talked about that on that show. So yeah, but then
Speaker 1: I like that song, so that interest. That was like
Speaker 1: the last one on the list, but I actually hit it.
Speaker 1: You're gonna say that for the end? Yeah, Um, okay,
Speaker 1: here we go. No she has to. Now, if you're
Speaker 1: Miley Cyrus and you're this big, you know, um young
Speaker 1: adult star, do you really want to play your fifteen
Speaker 1: except from your fifteen year? That's like Paul McCartney never
Speaker 1: singing I want to hold your hand, Like, no, it's
Speaker 1: not stop it, Miley Cyrus. None of the big party
Speaker 1: in the USA is nothing like in that aspect, where
Speaker 1: like you're asking a sixty year old man to sing
Speaker 1: something he wrote when he was eighteen, Like yeah, but
Speaker 1: again she wrote this as a young teenager. I would
Speaker 1: think that is you put by the way, I don't
Speaker 1: think Miley wrote this, Oh she didn't know. I don't
Speaker 1: think so. So that when you get to be thirty,
Speaker 1: you probably think it's coold again to play a hit
Speaker 1: from a kid. But when you're in that age we're
Speaker 1: trying to redefine yourself as an adult. But for her,
Speaker 1: like like, it's funny, you say you she didn't even
Speaker 1: write it. You listen to that, you're like, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: she's a Nashville girl going to l A for the
Speaker 1: first time. Like I understand this story, Like it makes
Speaker 1: me feel close to Miley just by listening to the song.
Speaker 1: Is Miley listened as one of the writers at all No.
Speaker 1: Miley Cyrus admitted that choosing the song was minimal. It
Speaker 1: was written by Jesse j and some others that she
Speaker 1: picked a song because she did something to go with
Speaker 1: their clothing line. Wow. She did not expect to be popular.
Speaker 1: It was something that she wanted to do because she
Speaker 1: needed a song best for the album. Later, it was like,
Speaker 1: I feel like a sellout, so she doesn't like playing it.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. She was so over that song that during
Speaker 1: a party in Chicago, she asked the DJ to play
Speaker 1: any of her own song to accept freaking party in
Speaker 1: the USA. I was the opposite when that song came out.
Speaker 1: I would be at bars and tell the DJ party
Speaker 1: in the USA. Here's my point with this. She was
Speaker 1: a young teenager and she got famous when she was
Speaker 1: a teenager, and as you try to grow out of
Speaker 1: that bubble gum pop, you don't want to have to
Speaker 1: play your bubble gumpop. And how drastic did she go
Speaker 1: from that to like naked pool parties. Well, she's twenty
Speaker 1: six now, so I would think that now, as she
Speaker 1: is more solidified with who Miley is, she's probably okay
Speaker 1: playing it now, right. I would think when you're nineteen
Speaker 1: to twenty four, you're like, that's not who I am.
Speaker 1: I don't people think we know who she is. Now
Speaker 1: we understand who she is. And you're at a concert
Speaker 1: and you're Miley Cyrus show and she didn't play, you're
Speaker 1: a little pissed, right, Yeah? Yeah. I went to r
Speaker 1: M show. The didn't play any hit. That sucks. My
Speaker 1: favorite story of me hating and that sus I love
Speaker 1: r M And I go to rim Shure. They played
Speaker 1: no hit and she played their whole new album. It
Speaker 1: was an odd new record. That's cold, but I bet
Speaker 1: they were so happy that to do that, like that's
Speaker 1: such a band thing to do. Yeah, it is weird.
Speaker 1: They have a song that they don't play anymore, shiny happy.
Speaker 1: People love it, So there's a story behind this. It
Speaker 1: was supposed to be the Friends the song yeah we're
Speaker 1: talking about on this ship. Yeah it was. It was
Speaker 1: originally gonna be the Friends theme song. This the singer
Speaker 1: here is the fifth two singer love Shot Girl sound.
Speaker 1: So RIM's record company, let's have the story of the song.
Speaker 1: They said, Hey, we need up tempo pop track. We
Speaker 1: need something like fun goofy. So they said, Okay, we're
Speaker 1: gonna make this stupid song and thinking that label would
Speaker 1: reject it, and unfortunately for them, they didn't, and then
Speaker 1: it became a huge single. Michael Stipe said I hate
Speaker 1: that song, and so he's like, I just don't like it.
Speaker 1: He said, I wouldn't say I'm embarrassed about the song,
Speaker 1: but it's a limited appeal for me. I never bad mouth.
Speaker 1: I tried never to say anything bad about songs that
Speaker 1: I don't particularly like because there might be someone out
Speaker 1: there who hears it and it means everything too. But
Speaker 1: the band has decided to leave Shiny Happy People off
Speaker 1: their Greatest Hits albums. They don't play it for the
Speaker 1: most part. He said, there's one song that I send
Speaker 1: outer space that does not represent R E. M. It
Speaker 1: would be Shiny happy people. I love the song, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I think of the music video and then all
Speaker 1: dancing around. I don't remember that. You don't know what
Speaker 1: were they doing? Um, there's just a bunch of people
Speaker 1: on like the sound stage, dancing around. I feel like
Speaker 1: it was a farm too, like I was just they're
Speaker 1: just did jumping around, dancing out the guitar riff. It's
Speaker 1: so happy, shy, like Michael Slipe has like the goofy
Speaker 1: thing with the hat on backward. Okay, I do remember that?
Speaker 1: Do you do you agree with him? Though? Do you
Speaker 1: do you listen to this and say I didn't sound
Speaker 1: like the rest of ari UM? I don't. Well. Ari
Speaker 1: M is such a collection though over because it sounds
Speaker 1: like over decades. Yes, some it's not like that crap
Speaker 1: they played at one time. I went and didn't played
Speaker 1: all these songs. So do you know any of those
Speaker 1: songs that it didn't matter? I mean none of those songs.
Speaker 1: And r M was over being contemporary at that time.
Speaker 1: R M was awesome, Like what do you mean by contemporary?
Speaker 1: None of the songs were making the pop charts? Got it?
Speaker 1: You know? Because it was beyond pop. They were older,
Speaker 1: they were more sad, and cool, But already I've had
Speaker 1: the jams. This sounds like like stand sounds sonically like
Speaker 1: Shiny have People. To me, it does. That's why I'm
Speaker 1: saying he's pulled a crowd like this does sound like
Speaker 1: a direction. R M was so good Losing My religion
Speaker 1: was like that was that was their song, Like that's
Speaker 1: the one that shifted everybody. The video we were kids,
Speaker 1: young young kids remember watching it. And he had hair
Speaker 1: in the video? Did he? Yeah? I think so. I
Speaker 1: can picture right now to artist he had hair that
Speaker 1: we don't think about having hair. Billy Corgan and Michael
Speaker 1: Stut have long hair. It's the jam I mean, Arim
Speaker 1: had well my favorite arium s because everybody hurts references
Speaker 1: quite often on the show. But I'm telling you I
Speaker 1: would just what's gonna happen is I'm gonna go back
Speaker 1: and you have to jam it all today. But like,
Speaker 1: what's the Freaknency Kenneth's prema right in the midst what's show?
Speaker 1: And don't forget about this? You talk about someone he says,
Speaker 1: it doesn't sound like Shiny have people come on the
Speaker 1: end of the world as we know it? Oh, come on?
Speaker 1: This is that that's great start. Yeah, fun, Wait birch
Speaker 1: sneake scenario. Didn't you have stuff like this? A lot
Speaker 1: of minor chords sadness? Yeah, even though it's upbeat, it's
Speaker 1: still but tones are darker. This one to one able
Speaker 1: to jam goes up to love. They don't like playing
Speaker 1: shiny happy people. I thought would go down the R
Speaker 1: A M. Train. I gotta go to commercial real quick.
Speaker 1: Called on. The world is full of sounds that warn
Speaker 1: you of danger, like if you get a little too
Speaker 1: close to rattlesnake here. But in the digital world, if
Speaker 1: your personal information is in danger, there is no to
Speaker 1: let you know that you might be in trouble. The
Speaker 1: good thing is that life Flock has added the power

Speaker 1: dot com. Alright, other songs that bands don't like to play.
Speaker 1: And if I went to an Oasis show, which there
Speaker 1: aren't any right, they don't play wonder Wall. They don't
Speaker 1: like it, they don't get it, they hate it now
Speaker 1: now the whole thing is that they won't play it
Speaker 1: at all. But if they hate it, but then that
Speaker 1: kind of what this band's about, fighting and their counterculture
Speaker 1: against themselves. They are not even culture like, they hate themselves.
Speaker 1: There's a Netflix documentary on them. I haven't watched it yet,
Speaker 1: but I keep scanning by it. I'll watch it one day.
Speaker 1: I've seen it's fantastic good. I just this is what
Speaker 1: I picture, and you tell me if I'm right, You're right.
Speaker 1: They just fight the whole time. But it's very self serving,
Speaker 1: but it's still dude, they're so they were so much
Speaker 1: bigger than even I remember them being, especially across the Pond.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but because they were big here, but I'm
Speaker 1: inter nationally, like I think that they probably were the
Speaker 1: biggest band in the world at a time. Dude, when
Speaker 1: that when Wonder Wall came out, that was something that
Speaker 1: we had never heard, Like, we didn't hear music like that.
Speaker 1: We were just coming out of grunge and they looked
Speaker 1: almost grunge, but they didn't sound like it. They were British.
Speaker 1: It's a weird day here's he says. I can't effing
Speaker 1: stand that effing song. Yeah, I know, Liam, every time
Speaker 1: I have to sing and I want a gag. You
Speaker 1: go to America and they're like, are you missed a
Speaker 1: wonder Wall? Oh? I mean I get that. And they
Speaker 1: both hate it though, because that was Liam and Knowls
Speaker 1: the same thing. He was like, I don't like the song.
Speaker 1: They agreed on something so now that they stopped playing it.
Speaker 1: It's called Supersonic the documentary, Like Supersonic guess it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a little cool guy, so you would like it
Speaker 1: because you're a music I just love learning about stuff
Speaker 1: and I don't know much about them other than just
Speaker 1: their brothers, and they fought a lot, they broke up.
Speaker 1: Here's this one. Madonna does not like playing like a virgin.
Speaker 1: That was one of my guesses, was it, yeah, that
Speaker 1: this doesn't sound like her. It sounds like an eighties song, though,
Speaker 1: and she dominated eighties and made all the other eight
Speaker 1: songs sound like this like an her Michael Jackson were
Speaker 1: the again. Sonically everybody chased them, so she made this
Speaker 1: everybody else chased it. She got away from that because
Speaker 1: everybody else was doing it. That makes sense, does make sense?
Speaker 1: Just forty nine top forty hits. She says there are
Speaker 1: two songs that she hates, Holiday and lack a Virgin.
Speaker 1: I forget that's her. She goes, I just can't unless
Speaker 1: somebody paid me, like thirty million or something. Not only
Speaker 1: will she not saying them, she doesn't want to hear them.
Speaker 1: She said, it's a nixt awkward experience. She has to
Speaker 1: hear them. She did perform both because she was trying
Speaker 1: to do a tour to get people like come and
Speaker 1: so she did both of those. But she's like, I
Speaker 1: hate it again with her, Like at some point she's
Speaker 1: gonna play it right. I don't know if she's older now,
Speaker 1: but I mean, at some point you come to realize, like, hey,
Speaker 1: you know what, like I was really lucky to have
Speaker 1: this life and really this song, those songs were probably
Speaker 1: the reason why I got to do everything else like
Speaker 1: I want to do. I think that comes in if
Speaker 1: people get older and they struggle. Oh, she might not
Speaker 1: struggle anymore. I don't think that. Listen, she could. She's
Speaker 1: sick six, she's older than that. But she's got a
Speaker 1: lot of money though. Yeah, Like I don't think she's
Speaker 1: in any struggle for she has to go. I need
Speaker 1: to kind of re embrace what I was. And she's
Speaker 1: also making a lot of new music. I I just like,
Speaker 1: it's crazy to hear people like Garth Brooks, you know
Speaker 1: who probably saying friends in low places hundreds of time.
Speaker 1: Still today he will do it and there and he
Speaker 1: will openly say like why wouldn't I play that? Like,
Speaker 1: but I wonder if secretly hates it. You think, I
Speaker 1: don't know if I hate And I think we're getting
Speaker 1: tired to play in his one thing. Yes, he's probably
Speaker 1: grateful for it, and he probably if you gave him
Speaker 1: a choice and it didn't in the crowd didn't care
Speaker 1: either way, Right, if it was no matter what you played,
Speaker 1: he plays it because the crowd loves it, right, which
Speaker 1: is why you do what you do. Right. But if
Speaker 1: you said the crowd doesnt care what you plays, gonna
Speaker 1: pay whatever you want, I bet he wouldn't play Friends
Speaker 1: in Places. If you know, if you have the chance
Speaker 1: not to play, you're right, probably right if you go
Speaker 1: if the crowd is going to react to the same
Speaker 1: exact way regardless of what you play, you can play
Speaker 1: anything you want. He's not gonna play Friends, And guarantee
Speaker 1: you at the end of that show, they'll do somebody.
Speaker 1: Everyone will be like, you know, what do you did?
Speaker 1: Play Friends in Low Places? For sure, that's the biggest song.
Speaker 1: But I'm saying I bet you that everyone that has
Speaker 1: to do it over and over and over again, it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'd rather not and you go into probably
Speaker 1: just a mode of you don't even it's just automatic,
Speaker 1: just what you're doing. And I don't think Garth or
Speaker 1: anyone like that would ever say, like, f this song,
Speaker 1: like I don't understand that I hate that song, Like
Speaker 1: that's the part that I don't relate, Like I can't
Speaker 1: really understand hating the song that much, Like at one
Speaker 1: point you liked it because you wrote it, you know,
Speaker 1: like even though you're trying to sabotage it like Radiohead,
Speaker 1: like you did write that song, you did put it
Speaker 1: up money and maybe it made you a lot of money. Boys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they didn't like doing fight for Your Right. Really, they
Speaker 1: said it was frat boys song. He says. The only
Speaker 1: thing that upsets me is we might have reinforced certain
Speaker 1: values of some people are audience, when our own values
Speaker 1: were actually totally different. So the school's you know, party, party, party,
Speaker 1: and they felt like they weren't really all about that
Speaker 1: you gotta fight, fight you're right. They wrote once that
Speaker 1: that song sucks, and they did it as a goose
Speaker 1: kind of I was the biggest boy fan if you
Speaker 1: if you'd asked me five years, I don't know. My
Speaker 1: favorite three albums would be like Forever, take On Island, Continuum.
Speaker 1: It used to be Beastie Boys, License Ill, which that's
Speaker 1: on at the rod of the Plane, No Beach Boys
Speaker 1: is nothing, and deal is what's the cover of that?
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think pull cover is it the tail
Speaker 1: of the plane on the front? And steel I think
Speaker 1: on the front cover. I'm trying to think, I don't
Speaker 1: remember I just had this and oh yeah it's like
Speaker 1: a jet Yeah I got it. Yeah, look at that.
Speaker 1: So what do you think about what? Like, what's your
Speaker 1: take on It's they were kids, this one in the
Speaker 1: wrong direction. That's not who we are, Like you're saying that,
Speaker 1: like beastwo Boys are saying that fifteen twenty years later. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the prime embarrassed off it. There are things I used
Speaker 1: to do, embarrassed stuff. But if that's part of your you,
Speaker 1: Bobby bones, Like, do you embrace it or do you
Speaker 1: hate it? M M. That's a tough thing. You probably
Speaker 1: secretly love it because it was good for you, but
Speaker 1: you probably can't say you love it anymore because it
Speaker 1: sends I don't even know what what message are talking about.
Speaker 1: It is stupid. This song is dumb, Like, yes, it
Speaker 1: sounds like a thirteen year old read it like that.
Speaker 1: But that's what everyone liked about it. They were three
Speaker 1: white dudes rock rapping right at a time when that
Speaker 1: was that sound was so for hip hop wasn't even
Speaker 1: that big. It was just starting to be a thing,
Speaker 1: and there were no instruments to hip hop. Three Jewish
Speaker 1: white dudes. We're crushing it. And it was like I was.
Speaker 1: I watched them almost like oh, I have a chance
Speaker 1: to do music. I saw the Beat Boys, Is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I could probably do music because
Speaker 1: if these guys can do it, they're goofy, like they
Speaker 1: were always like goofy, you know, goofy white dudes. I
Speaker 1: would like at and go oh, if they can do it,
Speaker 1: I have a shot. Yeah. Um. And if you ever
Speaker 1: watched them play like Sabotage on Letterman, you ever watched
Speaker 1: that YouTube video, They're so good even playing instruments. They're
Speaker 1: playing guitar and bass. And I've seen old old footage
Speaker 1: of when they came out playing their own instruments and like,
Speaker 1: look at that. No one did that. Speaking of Madonna,
Speaker 1: they did. They used to tour Madonna. They're wild. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: something like that. We had a couple more here run
Speaker 1: DMC walked this way. Nice transition. Thank you. The idea
Speaker 1: for run DMC to rerecord Aero Smith song came from
Speaker 1: Rick Rubin that we got the big great beer who
Speaker 1: produces everybody never wears shoes. He liked to beat never
Speaker 1: heard the rest of the record. So they were like
Speaker 1: this is hope really poetry more than hip hop song.
Speaker 1: I get that this is the one that doesn't fit.
Speaker 1: You know. It's like, all right, they were doing this publicity,
Speaker 1: make money whatever. Who like you said, Rick Rubin, maybe
Speaker 1: he thought it sounded cool, but the label loved that.
Speaker 1: Probably it was such a risk. Again, this featuring thing
Speaker 1: didn't happen, right, didn't your Secondly, there were it was
Speaker 1: crossing genres, which really didn't happen. That's why it blew
Speaker 1: people's minds because first of all, you never you really
Speaker 1: had two artists. You have a case like a David
Speaker 1: Bowie and make Jagger, but rarely did two artists hop
Speaker 1: on a song with each other. And the fact that
Speaker 1: it was too plenty different type of artists was And
Speaker 1: then it was also really good, and it was a
Speaker 1: remake of a song that was already like so it's like,
Speaker 1: we don't want to perform it. They're we're embarrassed to performing.
Speaker 1: They didn't do it. Then after a soul sol they
Speaker 1: started to play a little more, but they hated it.
Speaker 1: They gave it. They hated it. Yeah, so they like
Speaker 1: and I'll give you one more, which is weird. Really,
Speaker 1: Robert Plant this is. This is. They never did it. No,
Speaker 1: this is. They hated it. They hated but they played.
Speaker 1: They would still play because even in their reunion they
Speaker 1: played occasionally. Robert Plant was like, if I have to
Speaker 1: sing that every show, I'm gonna breakout on high. So
Speaker 1: they stopped playing it. This wasn't my time. This was
Speaker 1: before us. We waited before us. I don't know how
Speaker 1: songs became big, but this song was huge. Like Stairway
Speaker 1: to Heaven is, yes, the classic rock anthem, maybe the
Speaker 1: song of the seventies. Correct, we weren't born in the seventies,
Speaker 1: but if you go what's the song of the seventies,
Speaker 1: I start to go get not born, I go free bird.
Speaker 1: And that's even mostly geographical, but still still yeah. But
Speaker 1: I think Stairway to Heaven. I think that's the song
Speaker 1: of the seventies. And look at biggest song in the
Speaker 1: seven still pops up and another one that came up
Speaker 1: with Hotel California. But this Stairwood Heaven was it? Man,
Speaker 1: I feel like it was like the number one to
Speaker 1: like I really do, he's gonna look out do that
Speaker 1: one hundred best song in the seventies. To what people
Speaker 1: are saying, there's like an article written about that. Um that,
Speaker 1: And I would say because that late sixties starts to
Speaker 1: funs into the early seventies like Crosby Stills in nashas
Speaker 1: Nash and Young like even like teach your children, like
Speaker 1: that's big. But still I think, all right, we have
Speaker 1: a hundred best songs of the seven from Enemy Hold
Speaker 1: on Everybody. We're gonna go through start number one hundred.
Speaker 1: Oh it's going backward, okay, let me know anything far
Speaker 1: or so. So anyway, those are songs that those artists
Speaker 1: hate playing. I saw Robert Plant has something new out
Speaker 1: or he's back. I actually heard one of his songs
Speaker 1: on the radio and is and I it's good. It
Speaker 1: was just okay, but the voice sounded like Robert Plant,
Speaker 1: which is something that I hadn't heard what I heard that.
Speaker 1: Remember he did the Alison Crouse. Yeah that was good,
Speaker 1: good album, but he never did the he never did
Speaker 1: the Zeppelin voice where he screamed or whatever. And he
Speaker 1: does a little bit in this new stuff where it's like,
Speaker 1: oh he can still get there, he's still out not
Speaker 1: that high. But you told me one time Elton John
Speaker 1: like doesn't even go ye. He changed his keys completely
Speaker 1: on a song that's got a sun. Well he's also
Speaker 1: in the sixties, right, but that was your sounds, you
Speaker 1: know what said? I was like blue Gee, he's like
Speaker 1: blue Jean baby, like not hold me closer, he just
Speaker 1: keeps it, just keeps it there. Um that side we
Speaker 1: pulled up like a lot of sex pistols. This is
Speaker 1: like cool guys Fleetwood Mac Okay, which would be their
Speaker 1: big song on that's the one they list? Yeah? Is
Speaker 1: that to you the biggest thing Max song? Uh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that would be the biggest. Mine would be Dreams.
Speaker 1: Dreams is awesome, I would but that wasn't the first
Speaker 1: one that came to my mind, Like dreams, like Gipsy, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're gonna have a hundred massive kids Dreams. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: go your own way. There's a list a hundred greatest
Speaker 1: rock songs in the seventies. We've we nailed a lot
Speaker 1: of these. I'm gonna te I wanna tell you a
Speaker 1: few of them. Started one number one Stairway to Havent
Speaker 1: led Zeppelin, number two, Hotel California, the Ego, number three
Speaker 1: Skinner No, And I didn't think to even add this. Seventies, seventies,
Speaker 1: give me a chance, hold on, give me it's it's
Speaker 1: may be the biggest song ever. I know it's a
Speaker 1: number three, but when I say it, you're gonna go oh,
Speaker 1: like it could be the biggest song ever of the
Speaker 1: seven of Neil Diamond period, no, period of all time,
Speaker 1: of all time. No. And I say that in the
Speaker 1: way that it's just that so many people were covered
Speaker 1: it too, Like, regardless of our charts, it's the I
Speaker 1: think it's possibly the biggest song of all time. Marguerita Ville, No, No,
Speaker 1: would you agree that possibly the biggest song of all time?
Speaker 1: Imagine pound for pound, maybe the biggest song of all
Speaker 1: time Western popular culture, and it was John Lennon, It
Speaker 1: won't even the bee you imagine no heaven try. I
Speaker 1: think that line gets because it starts to imagine there's
Speaker 1: no heaven. A lot of people would get upset at that.
Speaker 1: That's not the point, is that that there's no heaven. Well,
Speaker 1: I think John kind of did that to himself because
Speaker 1: he'd all was like even wad of the Beatles, he
Speaker 1: compared himself that he compared them to Jesus, which didn't
Speaker 1: really fit well with a lot of Christians. But again
Speaker 1: he didn't know he didn't. That's not really what he did, right,
Speaker 1: He said, let's say stuff like that, but again all misconstrued.
Speaker 1: Even that first line's misconstrued. Agree with you. He said
Speaker 1: we're bigger than Jesus, right the Beatles. He didn't mean
Speaker 1: like we're actually bigger than Jesus. He goes, he can't
Speaker 1: believe how crazy people are for this. We're bigger than
Speaker 1: Jesus right now, and he actually meant it as a
Speaker 1: slight towards the Beatles, like he couldn't believe that people
Speaker 1: are acting so crazy because I believe that we're more
Speaker 1: popular than Jesus, and people freaked out, But in reality,
Speaker 1: it was him disgusted by the fact that the Beatles
Speaker 1: were more popular than Jesus. But then he would do
Speaker 1: the ballot of Johnny Yoko and be like, christ do
Speaker 1: you know it ain't easy? And then all the Christians
Speaker 1: are like here he goes again, and the line and
Speaker 1: the whole point of imagine isn't that there's no heaven,
Speaker 1: it's also and it's also imagined. There's no hell, it's
Speaker 1: imagined just right now. And everybody just took care of
Speaker 1: each other right now, Like that's why this song is
Speaker 1: so beautiful, but people will get all but her over words.
Speaker 1: Man first line without listening to the rest of the
Speaker 1: words more powerful than people think. So um imagine I
Speaker 1: think I'm born to run? Was oh, Bruce Springs, it
Speaker 1: is not a Springsteen guy. You've been born to run though,
Speaker 1: Like when you listen to that, you didn't, that didn't
Speaker 1: get you. I'm gonna I'm gonna say this and you're
Speaker 1: probably gonna not like me for it. So I'm not
Speaker 1: a big Bruce Springsteon guy, period. And if I were
Speaker 1: going to pick Bruce because I watched that document that
Speaker 1: show on Netflix, Bruce Springstein Live Show, Okay, okay, that
Speaker 1: is I didn't watch it. I'm just not a Bruce guy.
Speaker 1: A lot of my friends from the Northeast, from like
Speaker 1: New York, New Jersey, all they love them right, And
Speaker 1: where's born to run? This is that? No, I get it.
Speaker 1: Not even my top Bruce Springstein songs don't. Oh my gosh, dude,
Speaker 1: I say, born in the USA, Well listen, I'll get here,
Speaker 1: he goes. I'm a poser. I'm not even because I'm
Speaker 1: not even a Bruce. I love glory to this good stuff.
Speaker 1: I just don't like a sound what is it? What
Speaker 1: is it? Man? Go ahead? Tell us? It was all
Speaker 1: pretty good. It was all pretty good. I like the
Speaker 1: Dark Eddie, even songs like thunder Road. Yeah it's good.
Speaker 1: I'm just not a big Bruce fan. My best song
Speaker 1: here he goes? Play it Goodead? Well, are you hating
Speaker 1: to start with the drums? No? But for real, like
Speaker 1: if all the Bruce songs, did you know this was
Speaker 1: not written to the patriotic song at all? Yeah? I
Speaker 1: think you told me this? What is it? What was
Speaker 1: actually like the opposite? It was like it was a
Speaker 1: like a protest song before I get into trouble. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have Mike look it up because, um. The original
Speaker 1: title was Vietnam On in Vietnam? Right? Is that a
Speaker 1: movie or a song about a rock band struggling with
Speaker 1: life and religion? He gave Bruce the idea for the
Speaker 1: new title. Unfortunately, what's it say? Okay? Here we go?
Speaker 1: Springsteen wrote this about the problems Vietnam veterans accounter when
Speaker 1: they returned to America. Like the movie was, the first war,
Speaker 1: the US didn't win, and while veterans of other wars
Speaker 1: received a hero's welcome, those who fought in Vietnam were
Speaker 1: mostly ignored when they returned to the States. So so
Speaker 1: if I still listen to that song right now, I
Speaker 1: can hear that. But that's what it's about. I've never
Speaker 1: even It's not about look how wonderful the USA is.
Speaker 1: It's about, hey, what's what's the deal? Right? Interesting? And
Speaker 1: here we are playing at every fourth of July, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm Mary, that's so on this one then the other one.
Speaker 1: The other one means super well, but the words trick you.
Speaker 1: This one doesn't mean that well, but the words trick you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And your favorite Springsteen song. I know I'm such a poser,
Speaker 1: but I'm okay with that. Do you like the heat?
Speaker 1: I mean, the dude plays three and a half hours.
Speaker 1: Like sometimes it's like there's a reason Eric Church. It's
Speaker 1: like he is because of Bruce Springsteen. Like I can
Speaker 1: admire that. I think it's cool. He loves the fans,
Speaker 1: makes music fans. Yeah, I think that's what drives him.
Speaker 1: I mean, you want to know my other favorite Springstey song.
Speaker 1: I'm not kidding. It's so good. Said no, no, I
Speaker 1: agree with this. It's coming down maybe one of the
Speaker 1: best war Now you can't really wear the where you're
Speaker 1: my app out. But like, I played this so much
Speaker 1: during Christmas? Great, right, you guys know what jam Yeah, Claire,
