1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Jonesy and Amanda podcast. Back in 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: the day, Amanda used to host a science show. It 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 1: was called Beyond two thousand. That's right, and you'd keep 4 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 1: your finger in the pie of what was happening in 5 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: the future Pie pie times eighteen. 6 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: Okay, you don't know what did that mean? 7 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 3: I don't know either. 8 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 2: You don't. 9 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 3: I didn't even know then and I don't know now. 10 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 3: But I do like to keep up to date with 11 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 3: all the latest science. 12 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 2: That's why we have a science. 13 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 3: Rapt speed records having fun. 14 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 4: Science Muncie is my pet name for Amanda. 15 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 2: By the way, how'd that start? Amanda a munsel once once? Duh. 16 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 3: Well, let's start with this. Everyone knows this. There is 17 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 3: a couple of musical science. It's of information. Everyone already 18 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: knows this first one. That is this song Staying Alive 19 00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 3: by the Bill Jas. That is why be recognized as 20 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 3: a song for resuscitation. Yes, thanks to its tempo of 21 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 3: approximately one hundred and three beats per minute, which aligns 22 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 3: closely with the recommended rate of one hundred to two 23 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty compressions per minute for effective CPR. But 24 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 3: science has also neuroscientists have been digging into what is 25 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 3: the world's happiest song, the happiest song ever. So a 26 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: cognitive neuroscientist has analyzed what makes music make us feel good? 27 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 3: Looking at beats per minute, the key, the theme, all 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 3: those things that make our bodies feel great. So the 29 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 3: reason that this particular song that I'll get to has 30 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: been chosen as the happiest song isn't random. The track 31 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: hits the sweet spot of a brisk tempo YEP around 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 3: one hundred and forty to one hundred and fifty beats 33 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 3: per minute. It's a major key and energetic delivery and 34 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 3: lyrics that feel xhilarating rather than heavy. It's not I 35 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 3: don't like Monday's Finnily is it. 36 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 2: Killing in the name of by rage against the machine? 37 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: All of this matches with what how the brain responds 38 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 3: to something that's positive and motivating. Do you want to 39 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 3: have a guess of what that song is all? 40 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: What is your guest? I guess I'm playing for sheep stations. 41 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 3: It's this song. 42 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 2: So hard not to bop along. You hear this stuff. 43 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: It's so joyous. 44 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 3: You feel good when you hear it, and you don't 45 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,399 Speaker 3: even need to know why, but neuroscientists know why right 46 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: and now let's play shut up in your face
