Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Look man, oh I see you? Why and look over there?
How is that culture? Yes? Goodness culture? And listen to
this sound. Oh my god, that's a little bottle of
ove for your nerves. Move to move the spirits of

(00:24):
a nation as we absolutely get together today bow for
what is the three episode of Lost Culture? Can you
even raise your glass? If you are wrong hitting all
the runaways? More on that one later. I mean, we
started with that song pretty recently in an episode raise

(00:45):
your Glass Bay Pink. Well, not to sort of get
ahead of ourselves because it was the Jared episode I
believe it was, and I sort of get ahead of ourselves.
But the reason why it were so easy to sort
of quote unquote, as you said, start with raise your
Glass in that episode is because it's at the forefront
of the culture. Absolutely, and that is what this series
of episodes is about. Say that, say that keeps saying that. Well,

(01:08):
if you don't know, um, we've been sort of building
up to it for a while now, for a couple
of months at least. We are presenting you, the readers,
the publicists, with the three hundred songs of the Great
Global Songbook. What does that mean? What does it mean
to be on this book being the great global songbook.

(01:29):
It means that when you were released, whether that was
by streaming or even on a record years ago, you
had international impact instantly. This is the great global song book.
This is not the national song now. Lost culture has
no national pride. It's actually a world culture. Number sixteen
has no national pride. Nationalism will destroy us all and

(01:52):
it's destroying us currently now. But speaking sort of about
the world, um, one of the most important things in
the world is music. I think you can agree. Cheers
to that, cheers to that, and absolutely, let's just say
that the whole community, the whole Lost Coach expanded community
is here. We have you know, Hans, we have Anna,
we have Doug, and you know it's just family tonight.

(02:15):
We've been hearing the calls. Everyone's saying, we want lost culture.
Do culture catch up? Yes, we hear you will. Do
you want even better? Do you three hundred? Will do
you three d even better? Culture? Catch up? How about
how about for all time? For all how about from
music of all time? How about you wanted Lost Coach
to sort of get together in the room, look each
other dead in the eyes, and talk culture. You're gonna

(02:38):
get fucked in your asks. You're gonna get sucked in
your ass. Let me just say it's vibes, and the
vibe is different that we we we we say this
every time we meet back up again in person. It's
just not the same over zoom. It's just not the
same over zoom. And one of the one of the
great things about this is that not only can Bone
and I be together, but like we said, we have
the lost Coach expanded family here and they're all gonna

(02:59):
be making cameos today, which they don't even know, but
they're all going to come in and they're all gonna
tell us at some point, not right now, because I
saw you get up, Doug, and I didn't say now.
He went to go grab a coffee. He made a pot. Well,
don't come in yet, because I didn't say you didn't
say either, right, I did not make a peep. So
he was not invited. He's not invited in. So later
when he's invited and he can come in and he
can sort of say what lost culture he thinks has

(03:20):
done for him his career, Uh, you know, and really
the international community at large. Absolutely, I I think we
should waste no time. Well, and before we sort of
get into it, there is a twist. There's a twist,
there's a lot, there's a classic Lost Cultures twist. Um
with this episode, not only are you presenting the Great

(03:44):
Global Songbook, the songbook is a list, and the list
is a countdown. It's a countdown. There is a number
one song of all time we're in the world, and
there is a number three trid song in the world,
and it will be We have meticulously gone through this

(04:05):
list and it's an honor to be on the list.
It's an honor to be on the list. There is
no such thing as being on the list and being
a failure of a of a piece of culture, of
a song. You are in the Great Global Song But
this is some celebrated, celebrated this is people will be
singing this for generations to come. The children will be
singing the songs at graduations, weddings, funerals, children will be

(04:28):
singing the songs at weddings, at funerals. You know, here's
the thing, too, um, When when you when you get
when you If you are an artist on the list
and you want to reach out to us, please do
it through channels. Please do it through proper channels. Do
it through proper channels because the d M, you know,

(04:48):
it's so overwhelmed, so overwhelming for us. Oh my god,
you gotta go through your requests. So let's just say,
like I'm going through the list right now, Donna Summer,
if you're out there, you have some songs on the
go through channels, through channels, whatever that means. Yeah, whatever
that means to you, And I think we should start. Um,
you know, right before we we hit play bowen um

(05:12):
what he said something to us. He said, I'm just
reading the quote he came into this room earlier and said,
the flow can dictate the feel, the flow can dictate
the field. That's one of the hottest things he's ever said.
It really was sort of jarring, and I think in

(05:32):
the moment I sort of like responded in like a
nagging way because I think I was scared and how
aroused I was. When you when you have fear over
the arousal, when it feels forbidden, When it feels forbidden,
that can be some of the hottest moments in your life.
That's actually really coaching number fifty. When it feels forbidden,
that can actually some of the hottest moments in your life.

(05:55):
You know, what does that mean to you? The flow
can dictate the field. I think what he was trying
to say was that, you know, we don't have to
feel like we're spending too much time or not enough
time on and he saw in the flow can dictate
the field. You know, we're gonna be sitting here for
six hours. That's another thing. We're gonna be here all day.
And maybe we're even gonna have some surprise guests. Maybe
some surprise guests, maybe not too many, maybe not too few,

(06:17):
maybe not, maybe none. We'll see. We really created a playground,
a sandbox for different people to come through. We lay
and build castles. Yes, so, because that's what happens in
a sandbox. Really, you get into it and you build
a castle. And so I think that all we're really
trying to do with this is build a castle. That

(06:39):
is the three well, I think, and I'm being completely honest.
I looked through this list this morning. We've built a monument.
This will stand the test of cultural time. This is
a cannon list. This is cannon. This is like the
top two moments of culture. This is canon. I feel
like this list by self is its own moment in

(07:01):
culture history may have to make a new list. Well,
what do you say? I say, let's begin, because guess
what to quote a famous person? My ass been on pause? Yeah,
but I'm about to I'm about to press play, and
let's press play. What do you say? Um? Play that podcast?

(07:24):
Being a visual medium, I just totally mind hitting play
a button. But the wait, everyone listen. Okay, with that,
we have number three. Someone to watch over me. Ella Fitzgerald,
one of the most incredible communicators of story and music

(07:46):
of all times. Absolutely longing um the first time, you know,
one of the only times the word monogram is used
in a song, one of Gershwan's finest best songs, effortlessly
performed by whose vibrato is singular. You know, she just
and and just the last notes of the song You'll
never forget, oh me, that was sort of my Ella,

(08:11):
I was that was beautiful, So she congratulations Ella, that
you ain't You've just eked the three hundred spots you
made the list Number two hundred blurredlines Glee cast version cast.
I mean this was this elevated the material. This elevated
the material because the material, the source material is you know,

(08:33):
a little a little dubious. Let's just say it's a
little thick. It's a little thick. It's so to speak,
so to speak, and so does be spoken, so to
be spoken. But to have the artists of their generation,
the Glee cast be able to make it palatable, presentable,
appropriate for a Fox network for kids. Yeah, kids, kids,

(08:58):
Now we're singing a out the blurred lines. You know
what I means. We're singing it. It's not and it's
not kids, Bob, No, no, no, no, it's it's it's
gleek half. It's adult doing kids teens, four kids. That's
not kids, Bob. It's very different. You're passing down something
through intergenerational access. Absolutely, and I think that blurred lines

(09:20):
isn't important if you just read the lyrics sometimes on
some of these songs, if you really want to just
internalize the song, just read the lyrics and then be
like understand the kids, of course should hear this absolutely
palatable number. Venus, Lady Gaga, I mean transport me. Why
don't you why don't show another galaxy or or or

(09:42):
or our own solar system? Well to up for debate,
up for debate, you you what you might say, Venus
is not in this galaxy. We don't share a galaxy
with Venus. Well, honey, you I'll tell you what song
is in my heart, Venus Venus. Do you remember years
ago me, you and David went to karaoke in Williamsburg. Yes,
we did. But do you remember the time we performed

(10:02):
Venus at the People's Impromm. Yes? Oh, we had different memories.
See the fact that we have different indelible memories of Venus,
because I remember the time you and I did it
a karaoke and Willingsburg with Michael Hartney sitting in the
corner hearing this song for the first time, going what
the hell is this? And were we not the purveyors
of joy in that moment? Girl? We were? We were

(10:26):
like you know, importing. You know when you when you
meet a white lady in Los Angeles who sells artisanal
vinegar or whatever our vinegar was. Venus. We were the
people who were like, let me show you this beautiful
product before we move on. Favorite planet Neptune. I'm gonna
say Jupita, but I also have a spot for Mercury Mars.

(10:56):
Okay number two. I I will always love you with Houston.
Would you say this is a low placement for this
song that is considered by many to be one of
the greatest of all time. I think people will be
surprised by its placement, but I do not think it
is a low placement because it is where it is
in the list, and that means that's where it's falling
in the cannons. Where's the surprise coming from, then, Mama,

(11:17):
I guess people would people I think have really built
this song up. And let's just say it should be
built up. It's on the list. And when Dolly parton,
God created, God created and God, I think God was
really speaking through Dolly when he when she wrote this,
Dolly was channeling, was channeling the muse a God. Yeah,
God is the mused. That's actually a look out number.

(11:38):
God is first of all. And I think that I
think we can all agree that when Whitney Houston sang
the song, it really it got more famous. I would
say so, but there are two nine songs that are
better than this according to this songbook can Tonically, we

(12:00):
should also say this was not up to us. This
was not up to know. We did not decide where
things landed. Um, I'm sorry, can I ask I think
you might have more visibility into this process. Was it
was that the committee was, was Megan involved? I think that, um,
there was a blue ribbon panel of Megan McCain and

(12:21):
Abbey Huntsman and ribbon panel an even number of people
in case in case, they were just assuming that they
would be no ties and they would be in unanimous agreement,
and unanimous being two people mutual agreement exactly because usually
what happens is Megan sort of says, we're doing this,
and Abbey sort of says, maybe not, and then Megan says,

(12:42):
and then they do that thing. So, um, that's sort
of the way that list was decided, and we mere
we merely received the list. And with all that in mind,
just know that I will always love you. Does Land
of Two. That was an amazing essence of Megan McCain, Like,
but you don't have to say, you know, you know,
what would you say? My essence, like in um in

(13:03):
a sound is no, no, you can't use any words.
I can do you first because I was gonna go
for you. I was gonna go yeah. And I feel
that that's so I have them more. It's more a
little bit more like Rougher and yours is more analytical.
It's more m but sometimes people love the rougher and

(13:27):
with and and and with. That's in that spirit. Let's
get number two D. I'm gonna get you a good
green version. This is the country version. I'm gonna get
your good the green version. What makes it green? Is
there a synesthesia? They're like, I'm pleased that you asked?
So she she has two versions of the song, and

(13:50):
I guess we'll see if the other version made it off.
But this is a green version, so green version being
country version. She released two versions of her album Up.
One was more country and almost more top because she
was to one of the original crossover women. Absolutely greenest
country because the hills and I see it. Yeah, so
you can imagine the nature. Of course, country music is

(14:11):
very much made in nature outside. I didn't know that.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, so they before they record
outside that well yeah, so so with country music, it
it's more about you know, hey, barley forces, fields, all
things that happen outside. So you have to sort of

(14:31):
be outside in order to sing correctly country. You know
what I mean, totally understand. For example, the song um
this Kiss, This Kiss was performed outside and when you
sing it inside try it's though, it doesn't sound right,
it's though I am I mean, I wasn't nenunciating. I

(14:51):
don't know what. I don't know what's going on. It
didn't fit well. It's because you were inside. That's really
what it was. That's really what it was. Let's most
move on two. I'm gonna get you a good Red
version Chia Twain more pop and Red is pop could
happen inside when you want to give this one a shot.
I don't know. I'm not familiar with the song. I'm

(15:15):
not you don't know. I'm gonna get you good. I'm
gonna get you some matter of it. We'll see. That's perfect.
We're inside and that's Red version. It was really resonant.
There was resident Red. You can bet your bottom dollar
and I'm you gonna be man just like I should.

(15:37):
I'll get you a good Oh my god, Red version,
Pokemon Found Dead, Pokemon Hilt Kilt, Red version, Green version,
more like Shanya Shanya Red version, Green version, We're like
fuck off. The number two on the list Italiano Kate Hudson.

(15:59):
The only time I've ever felt represented on screen is
Kate Hudson in the film nine person with long legs
singing about singing about Italian movies. Yes, so she The
thing about Kate Hudson and nine is she really wants
to live in an Italian movie, you know what I mean?
And she's she wants to go down the Yea minetto
and you know, like and you know she's just so

(16:23):
horned up for Italian cinema. Have you not been to Italy?
I have not been to Italy, So I guess you
could say I'm just as horny as she is for Italy.
And I don't think you need to go to I
have only been to Rome. I have not been to
the nice parts of Italy, and not that Romans in
a nice part. Butt Rome feels very touristy and not
quite as um. You don't get that Chinny my Italiano field, No, no, no.

(16:48):
If you want to do Chinny my Italiana to Venice, Venice,
what I meant, you gonna go Como exactly, gotta go
to Tera. Yeah. And you know the thing about Rome is,
you know, I'm sure the bathroom facilities aren't updated. Oh,
it's giving Colosseum, it's giving, it's giving the Forum, it's
giving the Forum and I'll tell you something about Rome.

(17:09):
There's death everywhere you look around the Colosseum. People were
people were dying. People were dying everywhere. And if that's
what you want to think about on your vacation, you
have to go to therapy. To go to therapy for
that one. I have a good therapist for you, Deborah, Deborah,
let's move on alright. So this is number Thunder by

(17:30):
Jesse j. One of the craziest vocals on any song
ever recorded. Oh it sounds like that that, it sounds
just like that. And talk about the reasons why this
was released in the UK before years before it was
ever released in the US. It's really shocking to know

(17:52):
this wasn't a hit song because it is so incredible
and amazing. And something that about Jesse J is like
Nicole Scherzing Or She's really only very famous in England,
which is really more acceptable for Jesse because she is English.
Nicole is sort of extremely American, but somehow can only
really register in the UK. Changing now here for Nicole.

(18:13):
I mean I recently saw Nicole do an intimate performance
and she was singing like she was Kate Hudson. What
does that mean? Very well, very well, yeah, extremely well. Yes,
I love the black and white. I love the play
of light, the way Contini puts his image through a prism.

(18:35):
We're on a different song, I know. But that's the
power of some songs on the But what a shame
for Jesse j that she sort of got overshadowed by Kate. No, no, no, well,
well they're technically in the placement. Jesse is overshadowing Kate.
But we we must. I think we might have to
revisit this throughout this list. Named Italiana was a better

(18:56):
song than I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston. Sorry,
and that wasn't up to as that was up that
wasn't up to out of the Blue Ribbon panel. And also,
let's just say it, God created. Let's move on State
of Grace Scooter's version Taylor Swift. You know, there are
those subtle differences that you notice anytime an artist rerecords

(19:18):
one of their classic songs, and Taylor Swift is of
course doing this in her project to re record her
albums to own her masters. Every now and then you
listen to a song and go, I liked the original better.
I liked it when they didn't think of They didn't
have to think about what we might have to re
record this in the future. And there are multiple songs

(19:40):
on Red Taylor's version that I think we're maybe glossed over,
and State of Grace as the opening track of that
epic album, genre expansive, genre bending album, crossover smash hit.
It's it's interesting to listen to Taylor's version of State

(20:03):
of Grace and go I think I like Scooter's version.
You listen to the song and you say, now, where's
the girl? I knew, Now where's the girl? I knew
because I'm not hearing her. Because I'm not hearing her,
let me find her. I'm not feeling enough of the
color red and red is pop as we've as we've
learned from Jania Twain, red means pop, Red means pop,

(20:26):
and that there was something about in a post folk
folklore evermore world. I hope that Taylor re visits the
pop the truth you spoke just now. I hope she
hears it. You know, I would say this to her face.
I really would. I would watch, you would watch you

(20:46):
like to watch. Let's move on. This is a TI
The tie is sugar, We're going down fall Out boy
and stands sort of like, you know, two two energies
that were so undeniable that we could not as a

(21:10):
as a lost culture community decide which one would go
above and beyond below the other one. So this is
the only tie on the Great, great Great on the
Great Global Song but the Great Global Song Book. I mean,
you're you know, it's a little bit of a spoiler.
There are no other ties, and the rest of the
list I'm comfortable spoiling. I'm coomfortable spoiling that too. We

(21:33):
as a community, and again, it wasn't up to us,
it's except the community this we could not decide which
one was above or below the other. We do know
that both are above I will Always love You. Both
are above I Will Always Love You, which is great,
and they and everyone did an amazing job on it,
including Whitney. Well it's her version that's on the list.
I mean, I Will Always Love You by Dolly Partons.

(21:55):
It's not on the list, and so therefore sort of
doesn't really matter. So in the end, Whitney still want
out in a way. Now, Sugar, we're going down. What's
the feeling that you get when the song comes on?
Oh my god, Just as soon as Pete comes in with,
am I more than you bargained for? Yet you I'm
buckling in, up, down around. You know what I love

(22:20):
When he says the word weird, he goes sugar sugar swaga.
That's I never noticed that before. There are layers. There
are still layers even years later. To peel back now
just to sort of, you know, drop over to a
more sort of you know, dance moment, dance dance. How
do you feel when you hear this? I go now,

(22:43):
I guess, I guess I gotta follow. Anytime someone in
a song tells you to dance, I command you to dance.
You must follow the order military floor filler, the dance dances,
the floor filler. And you know it absolutely popped off
the music video when they're like thisance, etcetera, etcetera. It's

(23:04):
one of the greatest songs, and it's it's tied for
two on the Great Global Song Book two School in Life.
Beyonce a song that you've described to saving your life.
I will still say that I still believe that's true
about snaps me out of my depression. It's a song
let the readers get to know you in this moment. Well,

(23:24):
the song is about how, at any age you are
in school, and isn't that something amazing? That's something amazing
for people who miss school, for people who hate school,
for people who never who still have stressed dreams about
school even though they've been away from it for decades,
like me, decades. I think this song is a wonderful

(23:47):
encapsulation of life that you know you don't need. Who
needs a degree? Who needs a degree? And especially in
a post, in a post sort of COVID lance ape,
when student debt, student loan debt is still sort of
being foisted upon multiple generations of students, this really liberates

(24:10):
you from that thinking. Beyonce said, gap year, gap year.
With this one, she said, gap life, gap life. She said,
I don't even go to third grade. Girl, she said,
skip it all. Who needs that degree when your school?
In life? Who didn't go to school, didn't go point
blank period. Jesus Christ. You think Jesus went to school. No,

(24:34):
Jesus was helping out on the farm. Jesus Christ had
it was getting his hands dirty like a man should.
All right, let's say that right now. Jesus Christ getting
his hands dirty like a man. It ru culture number five,
Jesus Christ was getting his hands dirty like a man should,
getting schooled in the school of life. And then they
remembered her, and they remembered her beyond. Never forgot Beyonce.

(24:57):
Remember Jesus, I think for sure and more about Destiny
his child and members of Jesus later, members of Jesus
n total of the heart body build. Turn around. Every

(25:22):
now and then I take a look in the mirror,
and I'm never coming round every now and then. Every
now and then I get a little bit like your version,
and I'm coming out coming round every now and then
I take I get a little bit. What is it?
Every now and then I get a little bit. Then

(25:42):
I see the look in your brighte us every now
and then I follow upon, Hey, don't need you now tonight,
and I need you you home tied molle holding off
forever hell only get it right Good'll never be wrong,

(26:05):
Better than to the end of the night, forever to
night forever. Once upon a time I was falling in love. No,
I'm only falling apart. Nothing I can say totally that

(26:28):
says it all. When I hear that song, I feel
better than I did before, because I feel like I
exercised Catharsis. That's the word that there's no more cathartic song.
There are no more cathartic songs. I feel nothing when
I turn on the radio. I need Catharsis. Can TikTok song.

(26:48):
You can't experience Catharsis in two minutes. No, it's never ever,
ever gonna happen. Let's move on. Two seven Rape. This
is just this is just one of the best. This
is when she came forth. Number two six dorma classical.

(27:11):
Talk about this, this is one of the most beautiful
classical songs. You might hear Pavarotti spin this tune. You
might hear, um, he's at the turntable, yo, like all
the girls in the club, like playing my fucking song
play which didn't make the list. Um. And then Luciana

(27:32):
Pavarotti sort of spins Nestma, you are Italian deeply, no
I know, but you have Italian gene in you quality
and you fine. You think I'm just an Italian girl
from New York. Spiritually, I picture you in Amalfi The
Beautiful Man too. I think this is your spirit, especially

(27:55):
when I think about you ever since I mean talking
about Kata. How then it's a constant thing that even
I forget about you, having known you for so long,
you have that spirit in you of Kate. Well, when
I meet Kate Hudson one day, I'm just gonna go
up to her, tap around the shoulder and say you're
like me, and she'll get it. She's gonna be like, yeah,

(28:19):
for sure. And then she's gonna be like, wait, do
you want to go out back? Because it doesn't matter.
I'm Kate. Who is going to say anything to me.
My dad is Kurt Russell. My mom is Goldion, Like,
we can go out and smoke a fucking month. It's
not a big don't be a fucking nark on me. Now. Wait,
is her as her dad? No, her dad is literally

(28:41):
not not not So you know what her father figure
is Kurt Russell. And father figures are just as important
as father's. Oh absolutely, yeah, they really are. Father figures
are justin that's a real culture. Yeah, it's really call
at your number ninety nine. Father figures are just as
importan and his father's. Let's um, pretty girl rock Carrie Hilston.

(29:07):
Harry Hilson has a huge career, has a huge career
and you never, you never for her to identify to
I d herself so quickly in a song. My name
is Carrie. I'm so very fly. Oh my, it's a
little bit scary. I know, I know everything I need
to know about this girl. Yeah, it's like she's she's

(29:30):
begun the song and we know who she is and
that allows us to you know, really invest in her,
which we did, and now she's got a huge career.
Talk about the impact the line don't hate me because
I'm beautiful hat on the culture. Oh my god, major
major impact. I wouldn't stop hearing it for years. Don't

(29:51):
hate me because I'm beautiful. It's sort of a chicken
of the egg. Chicken of the egg. It's sort of
a chicken of the egg. Did Carrie say it? Or
or did your you know, your floor mat in your
dorm at you know, Pace University say it? And it's
that's the start of Chicken of the the Chicken of
the egg. All right, let's move on number four. Get

(30:12):
ready for this one? A thousand miles Vanessa Carlton No no, no, no, no, no, dude,
no no no. You know immediately what song is you
already know and immediately like it's crazy that it's not
a lot would you agree? And I'm being serious. Not
a lot of songs are recognizable by the first lyrics.

(30:36):
Sometimes you gotta you gotta hook someone in with the chorus.
Sometimes like the way that you can index the song
is by singing the chorus or the bridge the first
first lyrics like I just you can say pretty, gird
rock is the same, but don't he because of beautiful
is maybe more important? Then my name is Carrie for
a thousand miles, the most important lyric of that song

(30:56):
is making my way downtown, wagon, fast phase, the spass,
and a homebound And also not even just the first words,
the first musical notes, Yes, I don't know better notes,
I don't know a better note. Better notes put together,
put together in terms of song two three tiny moves

(31:16):
Miss Beginnings Chang played by Maya Rudolph on Deep House
Dish on Saturday Night Live. This was one of the
greatest moments in sketch comedy history for me, Deep Hout
Dish absolutely same um, James Anderson, We do not deserve you.
These are many moves, these are the moves I do well.
I'll just not to move with you. I start with

(31:38):
my tiny moves. Tilt and freak tilt, tilt and freak
tilt and freak tilt, tilt and freak, don't start a
dangerous situation, tilt and freak tilt tilt Parameters. I was waiting.
I thought it was exploring your frames, but it was parameters.

(32:00):
It's just you. There's It doesn't get better than that
on a comedy level, on a songwriting level, like on
a on a corio level, like the moves. I honestly
I'll never forget watching it. It was the Matthew Fox
episode of SNL that was like you, like, that's your culture.

(32:21):
My culture was literally coming up in one and also,
never forget it did not make the list, but that
was when Amy Poehler played Miss Latissa stro and co
Co Co Cologne. I wanted co Co co Co cologne
for Christmas. Two ounces is not enough, Three ounces is

(32:43):
not enough, fun ounces is not enough. Five depends on
the brand. I want to spray myself in spray cologne.
It's Christmas um and that is more. There's more to
the song, but wow, put respect on James Anderson's name now.
Prior guest of Hey, listen to this episode of Last culture,

(33:03):
go back and listen or else or else the next up,
number two, I'm here Cynthia talk about the importance of
the Color Purple. Noah, The Color Purple was an incredibly
important and influential film. You know. Steven Spielberg directed this

(33:24):
film in the mid eighties, and not only was it
a launching pad, you know, not only for the careers
of Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah Winfrey, um, but really what
this did was it told a story that needed to
be told. Alice Walker novel and you know, like we've
also seen it, you know, brought to Broadway by Oprah
Winfrey and great Tony winning success by Lashawn's and Cynthia

(33:46):
Arriva myself. And you know, now Cynthia Arrivo is Alphabet
is Alphabet. So that's sort of if you can sort
of see the trajectory there. It's like you go, this
is and this is what everyone dreams of. You You
dream of Celey and then Alphabet and then Alphabet. See
the alphab The pipeline is the dream. It is any
actor you know that Cynthia Riba has played Sey, Aretha

(34:06):
Franklin and Alphaba, the Three Dolls. And then I'm I
feel like we're missing one. I feel like there's a
fourth doll. Um it's Celey, Alphaba Aretha and who else
did Cynthia play? Who's the Oh my god, let me
let me just see really quickly. I need to there's
one doll that we're missing. I just know it. I

(34:28):
just know it. Well, Harriet, Oh, of course, Harriet iconic
Harriet Tubman is is with a fourth doll. Okay, moving on,
and this, this is true. This song is better than
the previous song on a roll number as isn't an
iconic that Miley Cyrus said, you know what, I Am

(34:51):
going to be another perfection. So many characters live inside Miley.
She's like, um, a chameleon. She's a chameleon. She's like
David bow So many characters David. She's like David Bowie.
You know what Miley Cyrus said. She said, fuck you
David Bowie, David Bowie, she said, fuck you, Daniel day Lewis,

(35:13):
fuck you Jared Leto. I'm gonna do my way. I'm
gonna do my way and sing a nine inch nails
banger and make it slutty pop. Oh my god, when
you hear, oh honey, it's like a thousand miles. It's
you're so right. It is truly one of those songs

(35:36):
that is welcome every time, every time. Drug alert. Uh,
there's gonna be a few songs on this list that
we're gonna say drug alert. Sometimes you listen to a
song and it feels like a drug and then whether
or not you're whether or not you're sober, you can
experience the high of listening to a song like on

(35:58):
a Roll by Ashley, I feel like them on Papa's
even talking about to come on, come on. She's basically singing, Hey,
I'm a whole and not no, not no for me.
Number two. My hair looks fierce Amanda Lapore nightlife legend,
pop music superstar. My hair looks fierce is amazing. I'm

(36:22):
also partial to doing it my way, doing it my way.
I wake up in the morning between three and four,
and I go to the bathroom between four and five.
Like she's giving us her schedule. What I mean what?
And but she she's constantly walking us through what she's life.
So in this song, she says, I just show up
all done up, dance, doing my thing, get paid, and
I'm out. And you know what that is? Exactly how

(36:44):
I want my night to go. Oh my god. Okay,
can we say that we were recently somewhere where Amandalapore
showed up, Yes, and it was just like, this is
her life and she's figured it out. She comes in,
sits down, shows up, shows up, chats to a couple
of chats with a couple of people, all done up.
She's out, she gets paid, she's out. I just show

(37:04):
up all done up, dance, do my thing, get paid,
and I'm out. Sometimes she doesn't even dance, and that's amazing.
She needn't. She has to prove nothing to God, it's
really cultural. Number two, Amandola Port has nothing to prove
that Tatiana doing same parts instead of Roxy Andrews first

(37:29):
and Rude Paul's Jack Race all starts to there's nothing
there's nothing wrong with rox Anderson's now and we've all
as a community. I was thinking about this today, You
were thinking about this today. I was thinking about this
today when I was reviewing the list. As a community,

(37:50):
have we have we bullied this poor person. See here's
the thing about Roxy Andrews, and we can say this
a natural bully herself, but had to do work to
not be that and then wasn't And now I think
it's all good fun, but I wonder if it was
okay for us as a community. And I'm saying us
because I feel because I've I've taken ownership, taking ownership,

(38:13):
I've partaken in this using her trauma the bus to
make fun of her, and I'm kind of being I'm
kind of seriously opening up this conversation saying, you know,
everyone in agreement that her verse in Reggie Roche is garbage,

(38:33):
like it's the only one I know by heart. And
to make it clear, I know you want my baby.
That's why we're skipping. Were sipping um something like I forget.
So maybe I'm not off so but and that's the

(38:55):
beauty of that's the beauty of that versus that you
think you have a total understanding of it and yet
you don't. And that's why I think we should maybe reconsider.
I know that the version with Tatiana doing the same
parts is what's on the list. I think as a
community we really have to examine ourselves. Should we make

(39:15):
history right now and spit in the face of the
blue ribbon panel and say the original ide wrote you
is actually what's here? Yeah, number RuPaul atendum. I never
would have predicted that we would have spit in the
face of the Blue Ribbon panel, and we're gonna be
hearing about it, probably on Twitter, which we should all

(39:39):
be leaving. I know I'm not I know we're on
the last um and I am telling you I'm not
going by both Jennifers and Amber Riley for multiple women
to definitively approach this song a very difficult song to sing.

(40:04):
Oh yeah, but for the fact that multiple women can
walk up to this goliath as David herself, I'm gonna
fling my stone and and it's range, she sung. You
have to be able to go all the way up
there with your voice, you know, and be powerful, and

(40:24):
you have to go. You have to be able to
say and make it like your own every time. You know.
No disrespect to Hudson and Amber, but something about Jennifer
Holiday doing that eight shows a week is a lot.
She had to do that a lot, a lot more

(40:46):
times than the other girls. And of course we never
forget her American Idol performance of the song where she
I don't know what happened, I don't know what happened.
She she's a little possessed. Every time she's saying, I
think you have to did there has to be a
demon inside? Well, Effie takes over your Effie and Effie
is demonic. Effie has had a demon put in her,

(41:07):
the reverse exorcism. In that scene, I think it's the
moment where they say, Effie, we all got pain. A
demon entered her. Did you see me get the chills?
A demon might have entered you, honey. I might need
I might need a shaman to come. I might have
to blow air through a tube and they suck out
you know the team. I hate it when that happens.
Number two hundred seventy. Do you want to come over?

(41:29):
Britney spears. It's a song that causes joy in the
hearts of I think many millions, but I can pinpoint
the moment when I brought us much much joy. Was
New Year's Eve a couple of years ago, COVID New Year's,
COVID New Year's, that first COVID New Year's where we
we're very careful. We obviously got tested, but that we

(41:49):
got a house and it was just a few of us,
had a few drinks, absolutely played some songs, had a
good time, but the tide shift did honey, when do
you want to come over? By Britney Spears came on, Yeah,
do you want to come over? Sort of will make
you really move And it made us sort of all
strut around a little pool table. Remember that, I remember

(42:12):
that we all just ran around a pool table. But okay,
can I say what what do we say? What song
do we say? We said total comes to the hardest.
Catharsis no song just catharsis better. No song does coy
better than do you want to come over? Do you
want to come over? I love that it's like a
little bit not even a V sound, it's a B sound.
Do you want to come over? Do you want to
come over? Just let me know, like, do you want

(42:35):
to come over? If I could, you know, I don't
think I'm the greatest flirt, but I think if I
were to remember, if I were to, you know, access
the part of me that is, I would just think
of this song. Yeah. I think next time you have
a flirty um uh instinct, just think of yourself as
Britney Spears And do you want to come over? Should

(42:57):
we change the I was gonna say change the V
would be come over? It This is freedom. This is
We've earned this. This is our three hundred episode three hundred.
We have earned the right to do everything we do today,
such as say that this next song is only a

(43:20):
little bit better than do you want to Come Over?
Number two Natural Woman the Franklin written by Carol King
looking out on the morning I used to feel someone
inspired m hm. One of the best bridges. Oh baby,

(43:44):
what you done to me? What you done to me?
Making me feel so good at side? Not just don't
want to be close to you, you'll make me feel
so I mean any of these songs that make us sing.

(44:11):
I had to look back at Doug. Let's get Dug
in here. Do we want to hear your is this
Mike gone? Okay? This is an important moment because you
know we've we've now gone through twenty five of the
songs of the top three hundred, and we need and
which is surreal, come in and close the door for

(44:32):
sound purposes. Thank you to use this one which which
makes you an Well here, there's lots of ship on
that seat. That one's on over here, so come on
over here. So I guess what I want to know
is so far, what do you think of the list.
Do you think do you agree? Do you even know
a lot of you know about half of the songs
that you said, okay and they're great and they're great.

(44:53):
What what kind of songs are you looking for? Like?
What do you hope makes the list? I hope it's diverse. Okay, Well,
I think we've done that. I do too. I mean
you went from Beyonce to fall Out Boy to Bonnie
Tyler to Aretha, Like, yeah, that's what I like. That's culture.
That's a culture. That's right. I've heard, I've heard you.
We've had nice Beatles conversations with you before, We've had

(45:16):
nice Katie Perry Celine de Young conversations. What what do
you think is the pinnacle of music Beatles for me?
Of pop music? Yeah, the Beatles, I think that changed
every Well, we can reveal to you right now, that's okay,
there's nothing. Here's what Here's what I would say to you,
here's what I throw out there. I don't think our

(45:37):
next artist on the list gave a funk about the
Beatles when she recorded this track. And I want to know,
a if you even know this song or if you
even know this artist, because number two hundred and seventy
five My Head and My Heart Ava Max. Do you
know who Ava Max is? No? I think you would
do a better job. Okay, So that's sort of a

(45:59):
pop singer songwriter. And one thing about her is she
has one side of her hair is really long and
one side of her hair is really short. You've you've
seen her, yes, yeah, impressions on that. You think it's
a great She's been doing it for years now. At
this point, do you think it's it's something she can
just sustain for the rest of her career. I doubt

(46:20):
she'll want to. Yeah. I think at this point she
has committed too long and she just has to stick
with it for the rest of her life. Yeah, so
she's gonna be an old woman in the nursing home
with you know, with with one with one side long
and one side short. Now, but when this song, oh
my god, it's it's a it's kind of a sampling

(46:41):
of around the world, but it's just one of the
most powerful. This is what this is. This is a
Drugg Alert song. Drugg Alert. Yeah, there's gonna be lots
of drugs done. So you So, Doug, just to ask
you a question, Um, what's the sort of um when
you were out there are going to concerts were you
would into the Grateful Dead. I've been to a bunch

(47:04):
of Grateful Dead shows and you smoked reefer. Yes, m m,

Sharp and Aaron Jackson just went to a fish concert
at Madison Square Garden where a man fell from fell
from the nosebleeds and lived and lived to tell the tale.

think everyone is is vibing, sort of fucked up, but
but having a good time. I I respect it. I

a Grateful Dead concert. But dot would you want to

Top Gun film starring Tom Cruise. Well, that will encourage
me to actually tune in. I have a few Okay,
so it's gonna be. It's sort of trying to be
the new take my breath away. I like it kind
of cool. Doug, what do you think has been the

(48:07):
cultural impact of Lost cultures? Doesn't? How has it changed
your life to be a part of it? Oh man,

But I would have to say, you really opened me
up culturally to the gay community more than I ever

sat back in her chair and she looked at me
and she said, are you telling me I was dancing
to a twelve year old in the club, and I
was like, I think that's what happened, and she laughed
and laughed and laughed, and then she couldn't ever get
over that she was twelve. I still am not over

(50:36):
the fact that she was twelve years old. I think
it made me a little a little uneasy. Even at
the time, I was like, yeah, but this is a

a great job of blending the R and B with
the hip hop absolutely, and also he always he he
was always going to say, I have a movie, Well,
I'm gonna make that title of synergy. And what I
what I want to shout out most respect to is

us a new comeback, which was dade you King of Anything.

and there will be no more, There will be no
Busy Phillips and Paula Pell did not make this. They
did not actually did not make the last What are
we supposed to have Paula Pell on this podcast? She'll
be on. Yeah, she's the best. But I remember like
it was like confirmed happening, and then didn't I know.
I think I think I got sick. You got sick.

(01:02:25):
Something happened. I think everyone was sick. Everyone was sick,
shallow Live at the Oscars, Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.
Who could forget? I was gonna say, who could forget?
Oh my god, any one to three? Who could forget?
When she was a little sharp and he was really
flat and they signed together and you know to be

(01:02:48):
real though, that moment at the end where the cameras
in their face and they basically like have a post coital,
post nut clarity, look at each other as if we
had just watched them fuck in front of hundreds of people,
thousands of people, and that it was culture. It was.
It was like it was like it did. And not

(01:03:11):
that this goes without saying and everyone agrees with this,
but it was one of those Oscar moments that you're like, Wow,
this is the os only at the Oscars. It was
only at the Oscars moment, and it was culture and
shallow talk about knowing it from the beginning. Tell them
is something girl, that we were recording this epid this
podcast the day the trailer dropped in June or something

(01:03:35):
too long ago, too long ago, but like we were
off book on the fucking song that day. Business Modern
wound an amazing singer and Grammy Award winner Bradley Cooper,
all about that base trainer. This was a body positivity,
body positivity, Bobby positivity, more like a Bobby positivity, say

(01:04:02):
that I love that body as a really culture number seventeen,
body positivity more like body positivity. Number hands Sea little
Little Number two, Sending the clowns Stephens. This is a
moment in A Little Night Music where Desiree realizes that,

(01:04:24):
you know, while she really truly believed and invested in
this man who is the love of her life, that
per chance he is really not going to go on
that ride with her. He will not opt into the
love that they share. And she has to sit there
and really debate out loud with herself just exactly you know,

(01:04:45):
not even really a debate. I mean, she's really she's
it's contemplative, and it's devastating. This is one of the
most devastating songs in musical theater. But I have a question, Yeah,
is this one of the songs? Is this a song
about realizing that you're a jester? Flop? Mhm, sending the
clowns More like I am the jester, Like I really flopped.

(01:05:11):
I am a low Jesse flowing in the square the
clowns square, send it in the clowns. And then she
goes me, I am the clown, beautiful, beautiful Jimmy Buffett,

(01:05:32):
go on vacation. Why don't you listen to a song
and go right to vacation in your head? Oh my god,
and I'm there. The songs that are on this list
are in some way transportive. I think there are not
that many songs on this list that take you to
a place. Maybe we'll smith me Miami, but Margarita, built
by Jimmy Buffett takes you there. And can we talk

(01:05:52):
about being a global brand, honey entrepreneur? He wrote a
song and it became a global brand. Where I want
to go have a confortter today? Today, I want to
have a cheeseburger in Paradise. You can get it today.
Hind fifty seven and French fried potatoes. You better know
that's going to be on the plate. Nowhere else did

(01:06:13):
they serve Hind fifty seven and French fried potatoes? Wasted
away again, Let's go alcoholic rightsholic rights leader of the pack.
This is this is just It's a stage play at
one of an innovative song in that it starts out
with a scene starting multiple people. Yes, well there she

(01:06:38):
is a tasking Betty. Is that Jimmy's bringing your wearing must?
Is he coming to? Is it coming to? Is it
coming to? Day by way? Waiting? I'm mad, I'm at again?
He turned around inside me get the picture yes, we

(01:06:59):
see that we are those two A girl, we are
those girls, but we know we're kind of I think
you and I are both. I met him at the
candy store. I'm at the cast. Remember when Hillary Duff
played this girl on American Dreams, the television show No
Perfect all right, the next song two Girls Go Bad

(01:07:22):
the starship and Layton mister annoy it sime, Yeah, you're
Daddy's little girl. This was peak Layton Mester. And you know,
I would say she might have peaked when she's still
peeking because she's married to Adam Brody. Huge, huge, hot,
What a great couple. I'm really obsessed with that. Imagine

(01:07:45):
being the star of the c and then the star
of Gossip Girl, gossip Girl itself and they get together
and didn't he also date Rachel Bilson. They did date
when when they were shooting. So he sort of has
a type which is like Brunette's star of a teen soap.
He was. I think he's one of the most He's
one of the most attractive people in the world. He's
really good. Seth Cohen, I was like, there's no one better.

(01:08:07):
Remember there was? He was the original Internet boyfriend. Seth
and also like, how genius to make him like such
a fucking freako nerd. And I was like, this guy's
a fucking Cretan. And meanwhile he was like, literally, I would,
I would, I would like to equal parts sit on
his face and he could sit on mine, which I

(01:08:27):
can't say about everyone so pretty and like the episode
where he loses his virginity, um to summer, it's like
he has like he has a shirt off. But he
was like, no, one's looked better. No, he looked so
good and also natural because so that was sex. And
she goes, yep, oh my god. They were so great together.
They were so good to comestract when she would go Cohen, Cohen,

(01:08:48):
remember Samara, And then she ended up being I think
she was she at the big event. She might have
been at the big events, but she um, I mean
her line was confidence Cohen. If you leave that sounded

(01:09:09):
the last confidence that she was so good in that.
But if you do go back and watch it, like
does not really hold up on a writing, You're like, wait,
this is horrible writing. It gives me hope, though you
can write a horrible show that lasted impacts that in
the hearts thinking about that number Firework by Katy Perry.

(01:09:39):
There's so for you songs that could ever start. I
mean talking about first opening lyrics do you ever feel
like a Plastic bag? And then it went on to
become a hit despite do you ever feel like a
plastic bag? Amazing. Okay, we're actually making good time because
we're at fifty and we're an hour end. That's perfect,

(01:10:00):
so we have fifty more to go. If we spend
another hour to two hour episode of a hundred songs,
and if we keep it up, well, let's just keep going.
Let's just keep going. Number two hundred drivers License by
documented moment and on this podcast of me not knowing
this song, you introducing it to me, Me going, who's this?

(01:10:20):
Olivia Rodrigo girl? Weeks later, I stand even more weeks
after that, the whole country stand, and then the world
because this again is the great global song, is an
international galactic even the great tattoo Jan Sparks just lack

(01:10:44):
a tattoo. I always have you really? Kind of that lyric?
Is really it just like a tattoo? I always have you? Yeah?
You really? I guess it's kind of giving, Stucker, It's giving.
It's giving. Girl. Here's a laser treatment. You can go

(01:11:05):
to yeah, hello Hello. It might hurt, but what hurts
more the embarrassment you have to carry with you because
of that damn tattoo. It's two, so big and colorful.
I assume colorful tattoos. Yeah, your name, it depends, okay,
Number two for delicious definition make the boys go loc

(01:11:31):
This is an autobiography one hundred percent. And we've said
it's a rural culture. That Actually Ashley Simpson's autobiography is
the best autobiography, but this is a close second. It's
number two. It's number two, and even autobiography isn't even
on the list, So it's different strokes. It's different strokes.
There are songs from autobiography on the list, that's that's

(01:11:54):
for certain. But for Delicious by Fergy, I it's a
crazy song. This this is actually a specific time in
the culture when you could write a song like let's
say Wind It Up by Gwen Stefani or for Delicious
by Fergie London Bridge by Fergie, songs that like had

(01:12:17):
nine different things going on in this like there's this
is a crazy it's one of the most insane songs ever.
And it starts with that like bee hivel like but
and then also FLEs this definition. First of all, there
is no definition. It's not and and so so. And
what she's saying is that for delicious, by definition, make

(01:12:38):
the boys go loco, which doesn't make sense, like for
delicious meaning make the boys logo, Like that's a verb.
What did you do last night, delicious? Huh? For delicious,
well I went out and for delicious that, oh you
made the boys go loco? Well, yeah, that's what it
means by definition for delicious definition, And it's one of

(01:13:01):
those grammatical things in a song that like people only
focus on concrete jungle over dreams are made of. Oh
that doesn't make grammatical sense. No, furgolicious definition make the
boys go crazy. They always claim they know me, come
to me, But I'm the f to the r G
the end can know other Lady put it down like me.
Think about how famous you have to be to even
put this song out. People have to know who you are.

(01:13:22):
They have to buy into the reality that we as
the listening audience, know who Furgi is, so that when
she's saying all these things, we sort of understand. We
can see it, smell it, taste, to fuck its snort
it that her name is Fergi and that and also
that people call her Stacy but she's the F to
the r G the and cannot the lady put it down?

(01:13:43):
Like U work it, Miss Elliott? Is it worth it?
Say yes? This was one of the songs. I think
I was like nine years old when this song came
out eleven but slamming your bussy to the ground. My
mom was in was driving her Toyota c N, a
minivan on my way to piano lessons, and the song

(01:14:06):
would come on Kiss FM and like call before you
come and need to shave my chat shot. I go, okay,
I guess I am an adult now because I am.
I want to shave my chot chop before the man
comes over. Speaking of the man, number one minute man,

(01:14:29):
Miss Elliott bricked me up. Show me what No one minute?
Ms Elliott one of the greatest. You. Everyone needs to
if you partake in marijuana, smoke a bowl. Just watch
the old the videos, the I can't stand the rain
one what what? What? What? Which One's that? What's that

(01:14:50):
one called? It doesn't matter. We're a little we're a
little buzzed already drinking Champs tonight, I'm gonna Mick you
want me, Mike, you want me, and I'm gonna give
you some sent ship. Oh yeah, the rains fly. That's
what I meant, okay. Number two Control Elliott. This is

(01:15:11):
one of those songs that could make you snap, like
if you hear it, like music makes you lose kids.
And then it's just like it's it's like it's like
for Delicio at the beginning, where you're just like your
brain has no choice, like it has to like four,
It's like it's like the equivalent of a strobe light Yes,
musically like ultraman like strobe effect gives kids seizures in Japan.

(01:15:37):
You could get a seizure from listening. You could Number
two hundred, get your freak on, Mr Elliott, now go,
now go. I mean like she fucking hawks the Lugi
in this song, and we still said I would like

(01:15:57):
to listen to it again and again and again and again.
I just had a visceral response to you doing it
because she fucking ghost for it. She really let's keep going.
Number two forty one so beautiful, My immortal Evanescence talk

(01:16:18):
about this song, this song like Skyrocket and Evanescence. You know,
they're so famous still and they're they're as big as
you two. You know, the big cold Play. It's cold Play,
you too, Evanescence. These are the big names of now.
And it started with of course bring Me to Life,
which did not make the list because when they followed

(01:16:38):
it up with My Immortal, that's when you need to
ever here, to stay. When you'll cry, I boy your tears,
you'll not hold your years, and he'll see me. It's

(01:17:06):
like a hymn, hymn number two hundred and forty Bitty
Batty bum Bum Selena, the queen of the Hanno music
gone too soon, and she said, Betty bum Bum. The
world said absolutely absolutely number two nine. Leave get out Jojo.

(01:17:29):
When she was thirteen years old, she came out and
she said, I'm singing this song the house down, Leave
gett out now now now you and me now can't
for you two big back. Wonder about you said that

(01:17:57):
you would treat me right when you were just a
wish waste of time. But this there was something major
about Jojo being in at least being class of two
thousand and eight in high school, like she was our age.
I think she was like the first big pop star
that was our Age putting out. I think she was, well,
you're famously a little younger than me, but like she

(01:18:17):
was young. I think she's borne. When can we look
it up? Really puts her in your sort of purview.
She's she's decemb So, she's our Age. She's she's not Taylor,
She's she's she's Jojo. I'll never forget sitting in information
processing class in ninth grade when she really came out
with leave Gut Out. And the senior that I used

(01:18:38):
to sit next to her name was Jasmine, and she
turned to me and she said, I can't believe this
girl's thirteen, and you're like, I'm thirteen, and I was
like I was fourteen. And that's when we started hooking up.
You hooked up with the senior. Oh my god, just
a little bit better than that song is number two eight.
Don't stop believing Arnie. I mean, an amazing sound that

(01:19:02):
has so many lives, so many live journey and then
Family Guy brings it back, Glee brings it back. Sopranos,
The Sopranos brings it back. Oh my god, stop the
end blackout just and when the Glee kids sang this one.
You knew the Glee kids were going to be then

(01:19:22):
capable of something like blurred lines or then capable of
something like walking on Sunshine mashed up with Halo by Beyonce.
You know, Darren Chris would sing Teenage Dreams so beautifully,
even though he didn't sing this, He didn't sing in
the store, and you know in the story. Don't stop believing.

(01:19:44):
I know what you mean. Don't give me that look
you I'm not just respecting Darren Chris as a gay king.
He's not even gay. Hey, at number two seven, this
one really is fame us single Ladies Famous, Oh do

(01:20:05):
you remember? Do you remember the dance that she used
to do? To remember this? Dance like this? Didn't she
have two people? Yeah, there was two girls behind her
and they were all doing the dance. And I think
the dance if we were we're not. But if this
was a dance list, I think it might even make
the top of the world. It would be Salsa, Ramba,

(01:20:25):
single Ladies, the click, ballet, freestyle, wedding dances, father Daughter,
um Cho, smooth Macarena, Soldier Boy, Soldier Boy. Those are
those would be the sort of the top ten, but
this is not a dance list and the Great Galactic song.
This is the Great Galactic song, but it's sort of changing.

(01:20:47):
Um okay, So next up, and speaking of dances number
two or thirty six, rio, do you remember the dance
I think so red two together? Hey, did you ever

(01:21:09):
get self conscious when you were doing the Maccarina dance
about shaking your ass at the end? I always committed,
and you know, I would get so shy so that
that girl who sings in between the choruses was was
telling the story that people don't pay attention to. Yeah
no if they weren't, Like she was flirting with a
boy named Nicorino in the song yeah Nico no no

(01:21:33):
no no, oh yeah me. Well and then and then
like literally one of my first moments in the culture
of going now who is she? Yeah right, It was
one of the first now who is she? Moments? Can
I just say that, Um, this is how the song goes. Wait,

(01:21:57):
that's not how it goes that's this is not the pops,
the pop version, oh radio version, No, what the fuck
you're here? You go? This is my girl? Oh my god,
bo that you're transporting. Oh my god, you're absolutely shaking

(01:22:23):
your ass when this comes on. It's so this was
a simpler time. This is the time was so simple.
Oh my god, does she start the song? I think so?
Oh you oh but he and he's really good going

(01:22:43):
for it. You can hear her grinning, Yeah, you can. Wow,

(01:23:04):
she is And then you said you hear the men
sort of saying, hey, ma wow. People don't realize that
that's a real storytelling song. Yeah. That she's like the best,
the fucking star of the show. Absolutely of the venue.
Number two. There are worst things I could do. Stockard Channing.

(01:23:29):
You know, it's interesting that you put Stockard on this
because I know I know of one other person who's
done a good version of this, The Hudgeons. The Hudgeons well,
stay tuned, Stay tuned. Stockard should have been Oscar nominated
for this. Absolutely absolutely number two four. Since you've been gone,
Kelly Clarkson, this feels low, well, this feels low. Speak

(01:23:53):
on your behalf and I think you agree. I didn't
make the list. It wasn't up to me, I know,
but I think, but you must have a response to this,
or an emotional response to being at two hundred thirty four.
Here's what I'll say it's on the list, and so
therefore it's like I can only complain so much. I
would say that this is a sort of banger forever,
and it did sort of kick start the conversation about
Max Martin. Okay the first that's not really true though,

(01:24:17):
because I was working at Factory Boys for years Britney spears.
But anyway, I know what you mean. What I want
to say is that since You've been gone made Max
Martin Okay, okay, number two D thirty three a better
song woman since You've been gone. The Electric Slide. Disc
jockeys at block parties bought Mitzvah's Sweet sixteen's graduation parties.
You hear the Electric Slide and you're expected to know

(01:24:39):
it and you're expected to sort of dance to it
the same way that like, do they do it? Don't
the dance student thirteen going on thirty? I think they
do Thriller? Well, I think before Thriller at some point
they do not on the list. Nonetheless they do the
Electric Slide. May maybe not. No, I'm getting it wrong.
Do you if you if if it came on right now,

(01:25:00):
could you do it? Well? I don't really remember it
anything electrics like you go you go do do do
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do do do do do do I
guess I could sort of fake it can see it's electric. Wow,

(01:25:22):
this is one of the best songs ever. It's on
the list. Yeah, okay. Number Frosty the Snowman Apple our
first Christmas song, and Fiona Apple has her own amazing
original songs, but she chose to cover Frosty the Snowman
and that was the most impactful song in her career.

(01:25:43):
I think that she she knows what's going to move people,
and it's Frosty. Yeah, and I don't. I never thought
of Frosty as being like angsty until now. Well, the
story is angsty. He melts, he goes away, he dies,
he dies, he gets Frosty dies, and he like carrals
the child, He like manipulates the children like Frosty is not.

(01:26:06):
Frosty was a sick pedophile and that's what Fiona is
good about writing about is good with is good writing
about men who manipulate predators, predators. Frosty the Snowman was
a predator. Rot ro number slide chat chat. Now, y'all

(01:26:29):
this is another one I would get self conscious about
at the chi because they when they say cha, you
sort of have to like shake a little ass. I
guess I just wasn't in my body as much as
you were as a child. Oh I I mean you
didn't do the thing like you know a middle school
dance where you're grinding. I mean that we we we
were dancing in the age of the grind. We definitely

(01:26:49):
came of age in the time of grind um. But
I wasn't grinding to chat child, real smooth. No, but
I'm saying like you weren't comfortable in your body while
like chocha slide would play like after Yeah by Usser,
remember get low by little John, Oh my god, to
the windows, to the wow, to the sweat drop down.

(01:27:10):
Men are so disgusting, Little John Frosty. It's insane. Let's
move away from men. Number it's raining man the weather.
Girls couldn't I guess we couldn't escape from this? Is
this is this is a song that he is really beautiful.
I mean, and could you imagine it's raining men? Well,

(01:27:33):
first of all, like practically this would be a lot
of thinking about the men. What are they thinking? Oh
my God, I'm falling down. You know what? This is
iconically like sort of like disposable men, you know what
I mean? Like it's raining then like whatever, who cares?
But you know what I love about this song when

(01:27:54):
it starts and she goes hi and the other one
goes hi. Way, y'all were and have we got news
for you? Better listen? Just the levels there, you could
tell it was different people and also the choice to
do to save these lines like this get ready, are

(01:28:14):
your lovely girls? And leave those umbrellas at all? It
just keeps getting higher and bigger and build to build.
They and they started at a ten Hi Hi. What
do you think they end up? What number do you
think they end up at? Absolutely way off the charts number?
Where are Your Christmas? Taylor Momson and Faith Hill We

(01:28:38):
have the film version and the sort of pop radio version,
both equally valid. It would be a tie if it
weren't for the fact that they're basically the same song. Now,
what do you think this question is asking she can't
find Christmas? And she's asked it's like very Judy Bloom.
It's like, are you there, God, where are you Christmas? Yeah,

(01:29:01):
it's really a song about maturation. I think it's not
just fear about losing Christmas. It's I think a fear
of what am I going to become as I get older,
as I'm exposed to more truths, as i move forward
in my life Me Cindy lu Who What's going to
become of me as I stepped forward into adulthood? If
Christmas changes, does that mean I'm going to change as well?
And what will I become as I become an adult?

(01:29:23):
This song is deeper than it's being given credit for it.
And it was written by Maria Carrey. There is no
song quite like this in the Christmas cannon, and it
made the list, and it made the last number two
corn Natalie, and I mean this bitch wore a fucking

(01:29:44):
zip up hoodie, a sweater or whatever the hell, and
she made into a moment she gave, she gave when
she was like when she goes and it goes, and
she's like spins around that iconic thing that years ago.
I tried to write a sketch wou it was like,
I don't know what it was, but I think it
was just people hanging out and the people would just

(01:30:05):
go do the dance. I think no one got it
and it did not make it into the show. That's okay.
But you can use the for us to know if
you want. I'll use it for us to know. I'll
try to find it. I thought I saw a man
brought to life. He was warm, he came around, and
he was dignified, showing me what it was to cry.
But she couldn't be then, man, I don't You don't

(01:30:29):
seem to know, seem to care. What's your heart is for? Well,
I don't know him anymore. There's nothing where he used
to lie. Inspiration has gone dry. That's what's going on.
Nothing's right out time. I'm about out of faith. This
is how fel I'm called the nye am shame lying

(01:30:52):
naked on the floor. Lusion never changed and do something real.
I'm wide away and I can see the perfect sky
is tie. You're I'm already turne turn amazing. It's so good,
it's amazing, Oh my god. Then the lyrics are like

(01:31:16):
low key amazing, like you're thinking about it. Illusion never
changed into something real. I'm why the waken. I can
see the perfect sky is torn? What the fuck? I
remember just being scandalized by lying naked on the floor.
It was like naked on the floor. How many times
have you been lying? How many times in your life

(01:31:36):
have you lined naked on the floor? Not that many.
Now I don't really like naked on the floor. I
light naked in the bed. I like naked in the couch.
I I yeah, all the time. I walk around naked often.
But on the floor, you are at your lowest. Now
the floor is filthy. But you and why you had
to get naked before you ended up on the floor.

(01:31:57):
You can't get lower than the floor. Number two, just
a little bit, a little bit more mm hmm. Number
two creep. Famously, Katrina Rogers is famous favorite song of

(01:32:23):
all time. There was a time when she would call
this her favorite song, which is so funny to me
and knowing what this is about, so creep. Yeah, just
keep it on the download. It's about cheating. If Katrina
loves it, it's like it's like my dad real and
loving believe by share Maybe on the list we'll see

(01:32:46):
say anyway, that almost for you, Katrina two Vita Loca
Ricky Martina Rights. This is a song about a gay
man worshiping a woman. Yeah, she is also to sing
it like that black cats, and it's like almost not singing.

(01:33:07):
It's sort of like it's Bob Dylan. Yeah, Ricky Martin,
this isle is a Bob Dylan song, and that's a rule.
Culture Culture. Number twenty four is a Bob Dylan song.
That Cat's gonna make Me fun. That girl to consider

(01:33:30):
covering the song before he perishing, croaks, croaks, Hey, it's
do the next one. Number two intuition from oh three
oh four her pop horror moment, And unfortunately Jewel has

(01:33:51):
sort of politically been troublesome lately, has she. She's very
she loves, she loves one Joe Rogan, Yeah, she loves.
She's from Alaska, girl, I don't know what that means.
Are very contrivutive, We're gonna we're gonna cut that, okay,

(01:34:12):
intuition probably all hartre here Sean, what is that in direction?

used to love this song. Remember this song, Cotton it
was there's a time when Cotton Eye Joe and like
the fucking Hamster song. Cotton Joe was always my favorite

And also it's it's like it's better than the Electric
Slide in Marcarina because when you get it right, it
feels like you actually challenge yourself via have you dance?

(01:35:41):
This is the thing though, and this is part of
why Marcarina and Chaa Slide and Earn the Electric Slide
took office because they're slow. Right, it's boom boom boom boom.
Cone Joe is but that, but that, but that, but
it's it's just that, like the BPM is a little
bit more engaging. It's it's a it gets your heart

I'm thrilled. It's the perfect liquid Dream. Yes, Ashley Parker
angel everyone yea remember him. They were all really attractive.
We were all really attractive, and not only did they
offer liquid Dream, but also is it all Let's talk

(01:41:30):
about the lyrics of liquid Dream, then painting the perfect woman.
She's got a body like Jennifer, Right, I do about
a girl who's a mix of Destiny's Child. There we
go with a little touch of Madonna's with Janet Jackson's
throwing a body like Jennifer. You got the star of

(01:41:53):
my liquid Dream, which is about coming. Yes, and like
I knew that at the time. Also the line, she's
a morph a morphraudic dream from a magazine. Now this
hot girl, she's not your average girl, she's a mad
dream from a magazine. Well, she's so fine day designed

(01:42:15):
to blow your mind. She's a dominator, supermodel, beauty Queen's dominator,
supermodel beauty Angelina Jolie's lips to kiss in the dark
underneath Cindy C's beauty mark. When it comes to the test,
she's Tyras the best and Selmahiac brings the rest. These

(01:42:37):
men are gay, These are game man, these are gay.
Liquid Dream says them standing and they're talking. The Liquid
Dream was them having a martini with them. I've ever
been hearing Liquid Dream play blast in the clubs this pride.
You will appreciate this, both of you will. It's just
unlocked memory for me. The first time I went to

(01:42:59):
Universal Videos Hollywood, the first time it was in l A.
Don't tell me were it? Well? Know that album had
just come out, and that album that my sister bought
was in my disc man that entire time. We were
in Los Angeles and I just we played. I played
that album start to finish, over and over and over again.
Was Oh Town a Pearlman creation they were making the band.

(01:43:23):
Watched them come together, we did did and they really
were like they were a group of like horny looking guys.
Really I wonder how much of them were gay? There
was four, right, it was four, I think it was four.
Ashley Parker angel as he well he just looks gay.
I think, Am I making this up? But was Ashley
Parker Angel in a relationship with Ashley Simpson. Spiritually that

(01:43:47):
feels right, but of course Ashley Simpson I con dated
Ryan Cabrera for sure. Who's not on the Ashley wait?
Oh my god? They had once Wait okay, Ashley had
a son named Lyric Lenon born August two five, and
Lyric is an actor and appeared in American horror story Hotel. Well,
you know how he came to be because Ashley Parker

(01:44:10):
Angel had a liquid reality into a woman and that
he basically like probably was thinking of a dominated supermanol
beauty and Salma Hayak brought the rest. What does that mean?
I would just like to say that lou Perlman did
manage them. He did iconic, so he probably was like

(01:44:30):
you guys thinking about how you want to come and
they're like okay, um, So number two, I love you
always forever, Lewis. This is that song you hear in
the doctor's office. It's that song you hear on FM
radio in the car when you're driving around. You always

and everything, I'll never forget. She really sang this from
her beautiful soul and she said, you go the most
unbelievable blue I've seen. She made me say you could

(01:45:12):
see the blue eyes eyes. This song gives me a
gorgeous fall afternoon. It's an autumnal romance for me. Or yeah, no,
fall Afternoon is good. I was going to say, but
it's not quite that. It's like pool side and spring,
but maybe not. But fall in Spring speak to each
other because they're not hot or too cold. Absolutely, they're mirrors. No,

(01:45:38):
definitely no, no j is on the list en hold
on Wilson Phillips sort of living in the same time period. Totally.
I really do appreciate it coming back in a big
way after bridesmaid I was going to say Bridesmaids gorgeous
song when you're hold hold on the Falling Monday, I
mean really, really, really just And you know what I

(01:46:01):

Why do you lock yourself up in these chains? No
one can live your life except for you. Don't ever
let nobody st open your heart and you'll find open
your heart and your mind. Is it really fair to
Is it really fair to feel this way inside? Some

(01:46:24):

only a little bit better than hold On and liquid Dream.
Respect et Queen Queen of Soul, A wreath of Franklin.
The Franklin. I mean, there's not to say, come on.
She she literally spelled it out just a little bit, mr,

when she went rear reary respect just so you know, Um,
I wasn't my gospel choir in high school and truly
as a prank, they made me sing respect in front
of my entire high school my senior year. Uh, let's

(01:47:33):
just say it was not what you want because you're
more jazz vocalist, You're not really a vocalist. But that
was good. It maybe got it. Remember when Kelly Clarkson
was a iconic white girl who's saying respect on American
idol and then shot into the hearts of millions. Yeah
you think that was the moment? Yes, respect, she slayd that,

(01:47:54):
she slaved that all right? And better than respect, they're
just a little bit better than our yes ect, bring
back my girls, RuPaul. So at the there comes a
time in every episode of RuPaul's Drag Race where RuPaul
has to bring back her girls to get critiqued and
to find out it's going to be eliminated. And so
naturally this was an opportunity for her to make a song.

(01:48:16):
Hence we have bring back what's the famous lyric in
the first In the first verse, she's going back to
the workroom. Do you think, oh no, no, no, no,

These bitches want to fire one of this man to
lose his job. They said executive decisions, and who could
forget that? That live performance, I think it was the
Billboard Music Awards or something where they're on the construction
site and I think Normany with the little tool. With
the little tool, someone's hammering a tractor tire. She's like

(01:53:47):
hammering a tire. She's like. One of my favorites is
in the music video when one of the hot, you know,
construction guys unrolls the blooper in the upside down there
and then she puts a big hammer on the table
and basically just suggest like your dick should be this big,
and she points to it like what is that? What

in tears, crying because I was so high. And you
thought I was going to say so moved that too,
that it's a chicken of the egg, the Chicken of
the Egg. And I turned to Sudy and I said,

Nelly and you are the Timberland. Yeah. I was really
I was really shocked as a as a as a teenager,

(01:59:21):
I was like, wow, you can really have it all
you can. This song made me be proud to be
a promiscuous girl. Did you identify as a promiscuous girl?
It's just so funny that it's called promiscuous. It's not
even like like she used the big word promiscuous girl.

(01:59:42):
Like imagine like someone refers to as promiscuous girl, like
we know you fuck a lot of people. Promiscuous girl. Hey,
promiscuous girl. I think it's a sexy little turn. It
just kind of doesn't roll off the tongue. Promiscuous girl.
