What do coffee shop workers and rock stars have in common? Quite a bit, as it turns out! Join us for a fascinating exploration of a nostalgic ride with the Dandy Warhols and their iconic album "Come Down," blending the eclectic sounds of psychedelia and Britpop with tales from their Portland coffee house roots.
Prepare for whimsy and humor as we dissect the lyrical brilliance and peculiar undertones of the Dandy Warhols' tracks. You'll get playful commentary on the delightful absurdity of Christian rock with the tongue-in-cheek track "Hard On For Jesus." The conversation meanders through intriguing musical landscapes, drawing comparisons to icons like Neil Young and Brian Eno, and examining the ambient qualities of lesser-known tracks that deserve their moment in the spotlight.
Our episode crescendos with a lively discussion about our favorite songs from "Come Down," spotlighting the infectious energy of "Every Day Should Be a Holiday" with its uplifting vibes and new wave influences. We celebrate the emotional highs of "Whipping Tree" and the concert-like fervor of "Boys Better," sharing our personal song rankings in a friendly banter that pays homage to the band's creative genius. And because no trip to Portland is complete without a quirky reference, we can't help but nod to "Portlandia" with its charmingly odd "put a bird on it" mantra. Whether you're a coffee aficionado, music lover, or just along for the ride, this episode promises laughter, nostalgia, and a hearty appreciation for the art of sound and brew.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome.
Thank you for coming to themeeting of baristas and coffee
shop workers throughout the city.
We hereby begin a manifestoagainst customers and management
.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And these rules need to protect us as the artists
that we are.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Just off the bat.
One rule I can come up with isno talking when you come up to
the counter.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah, All right, thank you for listening to the
Greatest Non-Hits.
I'm Chris, and playing thefirst song on the album Be In is
my co-host, tim.
Thank you for tuning in, thankyou for listening, and the album
(00:40):
that we're going to listen totoday is the Dandy Warhol's Come
Down, which is their secondstudio album, from a band from
Portland, which is why we playedthe Portlandia intro there.
So anyway, yeah, so that's sortof a nod to that and it's a
(01:02):
great album.
That's sort of a nod to that.
And, um, it's a great album.
This is a band that is, you know, sort of on the fringes of
psychedelia brit pop, shoegaze,you know it's a mix of different
genres.
Kind of a garage bandbackground kind of a thing came
up and you know they started in94.
(01:23):
This album is from 1996actually was.
I guess it was recorded in 96but actually released in july
15th of 97.
I, I don't know if I've gotthat straight, but nevertheless
it's from the 90s, but you know,mid to late 90s and, uh, great
songs.
(01:43):
It's a little, it's got alittle bit more psychedalia to
it versus the third album, whichwas their commercial success.
We could have done that, yeah,but you know this one is a
little bit harder and it's gotreally good songs on it and you
know, in, you know in sync withthe show, the greatest non hits.
(02:03):
You know, the whole point ofthis is kind of like the music
club.
Getting back to the originalpremise here, this is about
digging into songs that areoverlooked, that are really,
really good, and that's why wechose this album and we're going
to talk about that and a lot ofother things about this band.
They're kind of interesting,even though they're really kind
(02:24):
of a bunch of punks, you know,but at the same time they do a
really good job of, you know,interweaving those different
genres, you know, within agarage band thing and really a
coffee house vibe.
You know, um, because I guess,from the way the band originated
(02:46):
, uh, it was formed by, uh, Iguess, two classmates like
courtney taylor taylor and peterholmstrom.
Uh, they were the two courtneytaylor taylor's lead vocals,
peter holmstrom's guitar player,um, they added eric, which was
he was on drums, I could thinkuntil 90, you know, eight over
(03:08):
some disputes, but good drama.
Great look good drama great,look good drummer, and uh, so he
joined.
And then the last person Iguess courtney taylor, taylor's
girlfriend at the time was inthe band.
She didn't work out.
And then they, um, they addedzia mccabe, who I guess they
found in a coffee house orsomething like that, and that's
(03:29):
sort of getting back to thecoffee roots, that whole
portland scene, portlandiaconnection.
So there are a lot of greatsongs on this and at the end, uh
, we're gonna, we're gonna rankour three top nine hits.
So I can't wait.
Um, I've dug into this album alittle bit.
(03:50):
Um, I know every day should bea holiday is a really good song.
Um be, in which you know tim isdealing.
Now, it's good, it's one of thelongest songs on the album.
Um, I don't know what else canwe talk about here?
There's a lot of heroin, a lotof drug stuff on this.
You know, yeah, the name isinspired by Andy Warhol.
(04:19):
You know, interesting clip herefrom 1986.
I ran out of ideas.
He was like being interviewed.
I guess it was describing apiece of art and they asked him
what the inspiration was.
That was sort of the lead, thesetup to it.
Tim's got some interestingthoughts about the band and
(04:42):
we're also going to.
He's going to have some more.
He's going to dig it.
There's a the out of the filmcalled dig, which, uh, they're a
subject of.
You know they're one of twobands.
The other one is giant uh,brian's Jonestown massacre and,
um, you know it was a Sundance,uh, award-winning documentary of
(05:02):
their relationship for theprevious seven years leading up
to the when they made it, but Ithink it's like around 2004, so,
um, and I guess like duringthat time period, dandy warhols
were taking off and then brian'sjones town massacre was, I
guess, flailing and there was alot of tension between the two
(05:23):
bands, particularly the twoleaders, you know being courtney
taylor, taylor and, uh, Iforget the other cat's name, but
, uh, tim is gonna give you thathere.
He is how you doing man, good,yeah, good so who was wait.
Who was the um?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
anton uh, I forget his last name, that's all right
an who.
Both of these bands wereuncharacteristic and Anton and
Courtney's relationship.
They were leading a sort ofmusical avant-garde West Coast
(05:59):
Portland thing going on and Iguess it was a music scene.
It was a.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yeah, it had its own.
Yeah, it was.
It was a music scene, it was.
Uh, yeah, it had its own.
Yeah, it was like.
It was like alt indie, thatkind of shoegaze, right.
Yeah, that kind of thing it was, but it was.
They seem to be also beinfluenced.
There's a song on here thatkind of sounds like pink floyd.
So you can see, like you know,from different periods.
I think that's what's cleverabout you know, even though,
like, we describe as a bunch ofpunks and that's kind of how
(06:28):
they simple lines intertwining.
Yeah, simple, um, certainly verygood, lick my love pump ish
yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
You know, we're glad we found these, these, these
rock musicians.
Some jobs here, um, you know,kind of degenerates.
But you know, know, shout outto the tea drinkers.
The yes, the hard drug usersshout out to the heroin addicts.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
We love how much more black.
Speaker 1 (06:52):

Speaker 3 (08:05):

I think that's Hedford sayingit's a put on.
They just got this edgy appeal.
Yeah, it was in an interview,but really they're just easy
going fun loving guys and girls.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
They seem pretty, they're chilling, they're not
taking themselves seriously.
Speaker 1 (08:24):

little Alan Watt here.

used to the idea that theprocess of nature consists of
controllers and controles.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
This band, as well as Brian Jonestown, are all about
taking it down, taking down thepower structures, you know yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Like from a musical standpoint, though it doesn't
have a lot of cymbals like atleast up to now it's building up
.
You know, I think it's for,like, people who just want more
of an ambient kind of feel Right, it's not quite heavy, it's
taking the edge off a little bit.

(52:32):
There's that raw guy Stone Rose, you see.
Speaker 2 (52:45):
What are the hits on this?
Speaker 3 (52:47):
I don't think we established any.
I don't think there are.
I mean, they reached on thisalbum.
They had some singles that theyreleased but they never reached
a hit status Like Not If You'rethe Last Chunky on Earth and
Every Day Should Be a Holidaywere singles and Boys.
Speaker 2 (53:03):
Better was a single.
Speaker 3 (53:03):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (53:04):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
I mean, those are the good songs on this album.
The question is are we gonnaconsider them hits?
Speaker 2 (53:17):
I mean I like some of the other ones.
Speaker 3 (53:18):
Yeah, I think do you want me to leave them out of my
ranking?
Speaker 2 (53:25):
no, yeah, just all this.
This whole album is a bunch ofnon-hits, really, no, no just
All this, this whole album is abunch of non-hits really.
Speaker 1 (53:37):
Yeah, that's what I think In a certain it was the
album after this where they gotmore mainstream.
Oh, those numbers are rightright, bleeding, bleeding.
Speaker 3 (53:56):
These are released by Capitol Records.
I just want to know it's good,it's good, it's good, it's good.
(54:19):
Okay, that was kind of charming.
Yeah, they all are.
Speaker 2 (54:27):
yeah, that was a charming one.
Speaker 3 (54:30):
Yeah, that's the way to put it.
So this is we're going to go tothe blasphemous side.
The song is called Hard On ForJesus, wow, wow, dear tiny Jesus
.
Speaker 4 (54:48):
Dear tiny Jesus your golden fleece diapers with your
tiny little fat balled-up fist.
Speaker 1 (54:53):
He was a man.
He had a beard.
Speaker 4 (55:00):
We hope that you can use your baby Jesus powers to
heal him.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (55:33):
This is their version of Christian rock.
Speaker 4 (55:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (55:47):
I don't know.
It's not bad, it's not terrible, it's tolerable.
Speaker 3 (55:58):
Yeah, it's.
Speaker 4 (55:59):
It's not as if he's just as a ninja fighting off
evil samurai.
Speaker 2 (56:05):
It's something yeah Zia, with the little lyric, you
know little melody, the key inthe background.
Speaker 3 (56:16):
The tempo, the pace.
It's escalating, so it'sincreasing, it's getting faster
and faster.
Speaker 2 (56:24):
It's lean and mean it's out of control.
Speaker 3 (56:26):
It's like Mrs Crane.
Speaker 2 (56:30):
You gotta have faith.
Speaker 4 (56:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (56:45):
I think of Jesus, like with John Eagle's wings and
singing lead vocals for LeonardSkinner with like an angel band
.
I love that line an angel band,leonard Skinner.
Speaker 2 (57:05):
Well, this band is a bunch of angels.
They've never done anything,anything wrong.
No, they're not sinners.
They're not sinners here.
Speaker 4 (57:19):
No, I like the Christmas Jesus best and I'm
saying grace.
Speaker 3 (57:39):
They do like a lot of repetitive, like yeah, I love
you.
Speaker 2 (57:42):
I love you, yeah, it's very repetitive and trancy,
like yeah, yeah, whoa Zia isgetting it right now.
Yeah, this might bump, thismight buy this.
(58:03):
Imagine seeing this live.
I mean, this is like this isawesome.
Speaker 3 (58:07):
Yeah, this is like Brian Eno kind of stuff, right,
exactly, tim is writing notesright now.

Okay, it gets sort of ambient.
Okay, they do something here.
They do a sound experiment here.
Speaker 3 (59:35):
Oh yeah, a lot of the keyboard a lot of the synths.
Speaker 2 (59:42):
I mean I'm all for this song, Really.
Speaker 3 (59:51):
I didn't really realize how important Zia is to
the sound.
Speaker 2 (59:56):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (59:57):
That's uh.
I mean, the guitar playing isgreat and the drummer's keeping
time, they're all.
Okay, musicians.
I mean the guitar playing isgreat and the drummer's keeping
time, they're all okay,musicians.
Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
I mean it's the composure and the style that
they put on it that is reallyand the image I suppose.
Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
Yeah, like the crafting of the songs.
Speaker 4 (01:00:23):
They craft it.
Speaker 3 (01:00:24):

Speaker 2 (01:09:13):
Surprisingly Mm-hmm.
Oh man, you know this is tough,this is really tough, but I
Honorable mention to PeteInternational Airport.
Then Wow, and Green and Coolest, kim Deal.
(01:09:35):
They didn't quite make the cutBecause there's other good songs
on here, but I did really likethe Brian Eno shit they were
doing with track number 13.
Speaker 3 (01:09:44):
Well, that's Pete International Airport.
You're talking about 12?
Pete?
Speaker 2 (01:09:47):
International Airport .
Yeah, I like Peter.
You're talking about 12?
Peter International Airport.
Yeah, I like it.
Oh, is that number?
Speaker 3 (01:09:51):
No, number three is going to be hard on for Jesus.
Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
Yeah, okay, I thought you might do that Because the
keys and the experimental stuffthat they're incorporating into
the song, that really solidifiesthe uh.
That in my, my top three.
What's your three?
Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
Interesting Um.
Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
I'm going to say going deep, you doing deep, cut
here.
Speaker 3 (01:10:24):
Uh, not if you were the last junkie on nice is my
number three.
Oh, wow, yeah, I mean, I'm, I'm.
Speaker 4 (01:10:26):
I'm listing all these as non hits and um I uh not if
you were the last junkie on nicethis is my number three.
Speaker 3 (01:10:28):
Oh wow, yeah, I mean I'm, I'm listing all these as
non-hits and um, I, I just Ithought the words were super
cool, like the.
It was like poetic in a way.
There's a lot of.
I like the rhyming yeah, therhyming was good yeah it, just
it connected with me, so that'sgonna be my number three, okay.
Speaker 2 (01:10:46):
I'm going with, every Day Should Be a Holiday,
because I truly believe that andI like the message and in an
album that sort of ebbs andflows from downers to uppers,
that one really is an upper forme and it's got a good stone
(01:11:09):
roses, new wave, oh, approachthat I like.
Speaker 3 (01:11:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I liked it too.
Um, that's not my number two.
I'm going to say, uh, wow, youknow, I really did kind of like
um boys.
But I think, I think, I think Iyou know, the whipping tree was
kind of cool, I'm gonna go inthat direction yeah, fair
(01:11:34):
it was um brought it down alittle bit, yeah, it brought it
down, and it just seemed alittle bit more human you know,
like everything else, there wasa lot of songs that seemed
really kind of like, kind oflike shallow.
I mean, the computer stuff wasreally cool, or like the
(01:11:56):
electronic additives.
Zio was really incredible, butI mean Whipping Tree had all
that Plus just like more of areal feel for my taste, so I
would go with that interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:12:10):
Yeah, well, again, you know this is difficult
because any other given day butum, I'm gonna go be in had a
good concert a feel to it like agood opening, a show opener one
, and, uh, just a good number aboy's better amazing uh-huh.
(01:12:32):
Um, not if I were the lastjunkie on earth.
Great song, but they justdidn't quite hit my top three
yeah and I really did like thisalbum as a whole yeah, I did too
.
Speaker 3 (01:12:44):
Yeah, I mean a lot of these songs, yeah, in and any
given day, maybe some anotherone of them would strike my
fancy and I would choose thatover.
You know my others too.
So, okay, I mean that BBN was agreat song and I, I I wanted to
choose that, you know, as atleast my three, but I had to go
with those other two.
They needed to have their due.
(01:13:05):
But my number one like the bestsong on the album, I think is
Every Day Should Be a Holiday.
Speaker 4 (01:13:10):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (01:13:11):
Because it kept a moment, it was like positive and
it contrasted with everythingelse, kind of like Whipping Tree
I want to go with some of theoddballs and that just seemed
like more uplifting and had amore fun kind of a pace and it
was uh, get your adrenaline.
Speaker 4 (01:13:32):
You're flying.
Speaker 3 (01:13:34):
Yeah, you're flying with that one, you're flying
with the birds.
Yeah, yeah, I liked stone roses.
Uh aspect of it.

Speaker 2 (01:13:41):
Good yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:13:42):
It's a simple thing there, right on.
Speaker 2 (01:13:44):

Speaker 3 (01:14:19):

Welcome.
Thank you for coming to themeeting of baristas and coffee
shop workers throughout the city.
We hereby begin a manifestoagainst customers and management
.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And these rules need to protect us as the artists
that we are.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Just off the bat.
One rule I can come up with isno talking when you come up to
the counter.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah, All right, thank you for listening to the
Greatest Non-Hits.
I'm Chris, and playing thefirst song on the album Be In is
my co-host, tim.
Thank you for tuning in, thankyou for listening, and the album
(00:40):
that we're going to listen totoday is the Dandy Warhol's Come
Down, which is their secondstudio album, from a band from
Portland, which is why we playedthe Portlandia intro there.
So anyway, yeah, so that's sortof a nod to that and it's a
(01:02):
great album.
That's sort of a nod to that.
And, um, it's a great album.
This is a band that is, you know, sort of on the fringes of
psychedelia brit pop, shoegaze,you know it's a mix of different
genres.
Kind of a garage bandbackground kind of a thing came
up and you know they started in94.
(01:23):
This album is from 1996actually was.
I guess it was recorded in 96but actually released in july
15th of 97.
I, I don't know if I've gotthat straight, but nevertheless
it's from the 90s, but you know,mid to late 90s and, uh, great
songs.
(01:43):
It's a little, it's got alittle bit more psychedalia to
it versus the third album, whichwas their commercial success.
We could have done that, yeah,but you know this one is a
little bit harder and it's gotreally good songs on it and you
know, in, you know in sync withthe show, the greatest non hits.
(02:03):
You know, the whole point ofthis is kind of like the music
club.
Getting back to the originalpremise here, this is about
digging into songs that areoverlooked, that are really,
really good, and that's why wechose this album and we're going
to talk about that and a lot ofother things about this band.
They're kind of interesting,even though they're really kind
(02:24):
of a bunch of punks, you know,but at the same time they do a
really good job of, you know,interweaving those different
genres, you know, within agarage band thing and really a
coffee house vibe.
You know, um, because I guess,from the way the band originated
(02:46):
, uh, it was formed by, uh, Iguess, two classmates like
courtney taylor taylor and peterholmstrom.
Uh, they were the two courtneytaylor taylor's lead vocals,
peter holmstrom's guitar player,um, they added eric, which was
he was on drums, I could thinkuntil 90, you know, eight over
(03:08):
some disputes, but good drama.
Great look good drama great,look good drummer, and uh, so he
joined.
And then the last person Iguess courtney taylor, taylor's
girlfriend at the time was inthe band.
She didn't work out.
And then they, um, they addedzia mccabe, who I guess they
found in a coffee house orsomething like that, and that's
(03:29):
sort of getting back to thecoffee roots, that whole
portland scene, portlandiaconnection.
So there are a lot of greatsongs on this and at the end, uh
, we're gonna, we're gonna rankour three top nine hits.
So I can't wait.
Um, I've dug into this album alittle bit.
(03:50):
Um, I know every day should bea holiday is a really good song.
Um be, in which you know tim isdealing.
Now, it's good, it's one of thelongest songs on the album.
Um, I don't know what else canwe talk about here?
There's a lot of heroin, a lotof drug stuff on this.
You know, yeah, the name isinspired by Andy Warhol.
(04:19):
You know, interesting clip herefrom 1986.
I ran out of ideas.
He was like being interviewed.
I guess it was describing apiece of art and they asked him
what the inspiration was.
That was sort of the lead, thesetup to it.
Tim's got some interestingthoughts about the band and
(04:42):
we're also going to.
He's going to have some more.
He's going to dig it.
There's a the out of the filmcalled dig, which, uh, they're a
subject of.
You know they're one of twobands.
The other one is giant uh,brian's Jonestown massacre and,
um, you know it was a Sundance,uh, award-winning documentary of
(05:02):
their relationship for theprevious seven years leading up
to the when they made it, but Ithink it's like around 2004, so,
um, and I guess like duringthat time period, dandy warhols
were taking off and then brian'sjones town massacre was, I
guess, flailing and there was alot of tension between the two
(05:23):
bands, particularly the twoleaders, you know being courtney
taylor, taylor and, uh, Iforget the other cat's name, but
, uh, tim is gonna give you thathere.
He is how you doing man, good,yeah, good so who was wait.
Who was the um?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
anton uh, I forget his last name, that's all right
an who.
Both of these bands wereuncharacteristic and Anton and
Courtney's relationship.
They were leading a sort ofmusical avant-garde West Coast
(05:59):
Portland thing going on and Iguess it was a music scene.
It was a.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yeah, it had its own.
Yeah, it was.
It was a music scene, it was.
Uh, yeah, it had its own.
Yeah, it was like.
It was like alt indie, thatkind of shoegaze, right.
Yeah, that kind of thing it was, but it was.
They seem to be also beinfluenced.
There's a song on here thatkind of sounds like pink floyd.
So you can see, like you know,from different periods.
I think that's what's cleverabout you know, even though,
like, we describe as a bunch ofpunks and that's kind of how
(06:28):
they simple lines intertwining.
Yeah, simple, um, certainly verygood, lick my love pump ish
yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
You know, we're glad we found these, these, these
rock musicians.
Some jobs here, um, you know,kind of degenerates.
But you know, know, shout outto the tea drinkers.
The yes, the hard drug usersshout out to the heroin addicts.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
We love how much more black.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Could this be?
The answer is none.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
None is that good, yep yeah it's anyway.
Don't do drugs, though, butanyway, yeah, so we ready to go,
you ready?
Yeah, let's hit it.
Yeah, any last thoughts?
Yeah, no, no no.
Okay.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
I'm sorry, finish your thought, mister.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That was bad timing.
He's just being in the momenthere.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Yeah, let's be in the moment.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
They go around the block, they come back.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
They go around again.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Time to get creepy.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
This is kind of creepy.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
That's a big put on.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
That was Hedford.
I think that's Hedford sayingit's a put on.
They just got this edgy appeal.
Yeah, it was in an interview,but really they're just easy
going fun loving guys and girls.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
They seem pretty, they're chilling, they're not
taking themselves seriously.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
They realize that it's only a dream.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
It sounds like a little bit of Ravi Shankar yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Zorba the Greek, maybe, I don't know Do we have a
little Alan Watt here.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Yeah, controls.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
what happens next, we would ask that because we are
used to the idea that theprocess of nature consists of
controllers and controles.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
This band, as well as Brian Jonestown, are all about
taking it down, taking down thepower structures, you know yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Like from a musical standpoint, though it doesn't
have a lot of cymbals like atleast up to now it's building up
.
You know, I think it's for,like, people who just want more
of an ambient kind of feel Right, it's not quite heavy, it's
taking the edge off a little bit.
I kind of dig that.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
Alone in your room.

sounds like their song sleep d,dandy Warhol's Sleep.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
What are the hits on this?
Speaker 3 (52:47):
I don't think we established any.
I don't think there are.
I mean, they reached on thisalbum.
They had some singles that theyreleased but they never reached
a hit status Like Not If You'rethe Last Chunky on Earth and
Every Day Should Be a Holidaywere singles and Boys.
Speaker 2 (53:03):
Better was a single.
Speaker 3 (53:03):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (53:04):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
I mean, those are the good songs on this album.
The question is are we gonnaconsider them hits?
Speaker 2 (53:17):
I mean I like some of the other ones.
Speaker 3 (53:18):
Yeah, I think do you want me to leave them out of my
ranking?

This whole album is a bunch ofnon-hits, really, no, no just
All this, this whole album is abunch of non-hits really.
Speaker 1 (53:37):
Yeah, that's what I think In a certain it was the
album after this where they gotmore mainstream.
Oh, those numbers are rightright, bleeding, bleeding.
Speaker 3 (53:56):
These are released by Capitol Records.
I just want to know it's good,it's good, it's good, it's good.

Speaker 3 (54:30):
Yeah, that's the way to put it.
So this is we're going to go tothe blasphemous side.
The song is called Hard On ForJesus, wow, wow, dear tiny Jesus
.
Speaker 4 (54:48):
Dear tiny Jesus your golden fleece diapers with your
tiny little fat balled-up fist.
Speaker 1 (54:53):

Speaker 4 (55:00):
We hope that you can use your baby Jesus powers to
heal him.

Speaker 2 (55:33):
This is their version of Christian rock.
Speaker 4 (55:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (55:47):
I don't know.
It's not bad, it's not terrible, it's tolerable.
Speaker 3 (55:58):
Yeah, it's.
Speaker 4 (55:59):
It's not as if he's just as a ninja fighting off
evil samurai.
Speaker 2 (56:05):
It's something yeah Zia, with the little lyric, you
know little melody, the key inthe background.
Speaker 3 (56:16):
The tempo, the pace.
It's escalating, so it'sincreasing, it's getting faster
and faster.
Speaker 2 (56:24):
It's lean and mean it's out of control.
Speaker 3 (56:26):
It's like Mrs Crane.
Speaker 2 (56:30):
You gotta have faith.
Speaker 4 (56:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (56:45):
I think of Jesus, like with John Eagle's wings and
singing lead vocals for LeonardSkinner with like an angel band
.
I love that line an angel band,leonard Skinner.
Speaker 2 (57:05):
Well, this band is a bunch of angels.
They've never done anything,anything wrong.
No, they're not sinners.
They're not sinners here.
Speaker 4 (57:19):
No, I like the Christmas Jesus best and I'm
saying grace.
Speaker 3 (57:39):
They do like a lot of repetitive, like yeah, I love
you.
Speaker 2 (57:42):
I love you, yeah, it's very repetitive and trancy,
like yeah, yeah, whoa Zia isgetting it right now.
Yeah, this might bump, thismight buy this.
(58:03):
Imagine seeing this live.

Speaker 2 (59:42):
I mean I'm all for this song, Really.

the sound.

time, they're all.
Okay, musicians.
I mean the guitar playing isgreat and the drummer's keeping
time, they're all okay,musicians.
Speaker 2 (01:00:11):

It was like poetic in a way.
There's a lot of.
I like the rhyming yeah, therhyming was good yeah it, just
it connected with me, so that'sgonna be my number three, okay.
Speaker 2 (01:10:46):
I'm going with, every Day Should Be a Holiday,
because I truly believe that andI like the message and in an
album that sort of ebbs andflows from downers to uppers,
that one really is an upper forme and it's got a good stone
(01:11:09):
roses, new wave, oh, approachthat I like.
Speaker 3 (01:11:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I liked it too.
Um, that's not my number two.
I'm going to say, uh, wow, youknow, I really did kind of like
um boys.
But I think, I think, I think Iyou know, the whipping tree was
kind of cool, I'm gonna go inthat direction yeah, fair
(01:11:34):
it was um brought it down alittle bit, yeah, it brought it
down, and it just seemed alittle bit more human you know,
like everything else, there wasa lot of songs that seemed
really kind of like, kind oflike shallow.
I mean, the computer stuff wasreally cool, or like the
(01:11:56):
electronic additives.
Zio was really incredible, butI mean Whipping Tree had all
that Plus just like more of areal feel for my taste, so I
would go with that interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:12:10):
Yeah, well, again, you know this is difficult
because any other given day butum, I'm gonna go be in had a
good concert a feel to it like agood opening, a show opener one
, and, uh, just a good number aboy's better amazing uh-huh.
(01:12:32):
Um, not if I were the lastjunkie on earth.
Great song, but they justdidn't quite hit my top three
yeah and I really did like thisalbum as a whole yeah, I did too
.
Speaker 3 (01:12:44):
Yeah, I mean a lot of these songs, yeah, in and any
given day, maybe some anotherone of them would strike my
fancy and I would choose thatover.
You know my others too.
So, okay, I mean that BBN was agreat song and I, I I wanted to
choose that, you know, as atleast my three, but I had to go
with those other two.
They needed to have their due.
(01:13:05):
But my number one like the bestsong on the album, I think is
Every Day Should Be a Holiday.
Speaker 4 (01:13:10):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (01:13:11):
Because it kept a moment, it was like positive and
it contrasted with everythingelse, kind of like Whipping Tree
I want to go with some of theoddballs and that just seemed
like more uplifting and had amore fun kind of a pace and it
was uh, get your adrenaline.
Speaker 4 (01:13:32):
You're flying.
Speaker 3 (01:13:34):
Yeah, you're flying with that one, you're flying
with the birds.
Yeah, yeah, I liked stone roses.
Uh aspect of it.
Good harmony.
Speaker 2 (01:13:41):
Good yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:13:42):
It's a simple thing there, right on.
Speaker 2 (01:13:44):
Speaking with flying with the birds, we put our
ribbon right on it.
Speaker 3 (01:13:49):
