Ep. 50 - Livin' on a Prayer by Bon Jovi: Woah We're Halfway There, We Just Don't know to Where
OUR 50TH EPISODE! Thank you so much listener for learning and laughing with us for the past 50 eps. We are having a blast! Known as the national anthem of New Jersey, the band's staple song, and a karaoke favorite, Livin' on a Prayer is very popular -even currently- song! After some (let's be honest here, a LOT) of jibber jabbering about headphones and robotic noises and the occassional "dragon" drop, we dive right into breaking down the lyrics. Tommy and Gina, man do they have some problems going on, have got love and hope. We discover the words and the story aren't so much what make us LOVE this song, it's more the repitition and hook! See if you listener can hear us say the words -or the title itself- of this song and not sing "WOOOOOOOOAH OHHHHH LIVIN' ON A PRAYER!" Because, it is nearly impossible for Tressa and Joey has to throw in the voice box part too. And Happy Birthday Jon Bon Jovi!

Ep. 49 - Let It Be by The Beatles : No One Talks This Way, But Man We Sure Talk A LOT
We admit -we have yet to perfect the art of getting right into the designed content of the episodes- and our advice to you listener is to just "let it be" (smirky face). While we are here to breakdown for you the lyrics of these songs, we are also here to involve you in our daily lives and laugh invite you to laugh with us in our shenanigans. THEN we get to the "lyrics portion of the podcast listener!" And what we reveal to you about this song, the origin of it, and how ridiculously quick it was written, is that it is the work of a genius. Paul McCartney, front man of a little band you may have heard of, writes this gem in a way in which no one ever talks but it apparently can mega sell a song! The concept of "let it be" is exactly as you imagine it, yet the conditions in which McCartney presents may not be as exact. Give it a listen and then go have a conversation with your friends and see if anyone amongst you converses in such a way.

Ep. 47 - Your Song by Elton John: Yes, This is Literally Your Song Listener
After a brief hiatus, WE ARE BACK! Where have we been you ask? We catch you right up, in full entertainment mode of course. Our return hits you with a TIMELESS number. 1970. Neither of us even born, and most likely you were not either listener, and this classic song graces our ears (and hearts) at its age of 52. This song -"Your Song"-was written from the naive POV of a 17 year old boy and here we are in awe of them. These are seriously some of the best lyrics we have broken down to date and the song itself has yet to become old or annoying to us! He was so certain of its release to the world that he literally wrote "it's for people like you that keep it turned on" and while we are certain it was written about one individual someone...we are equally certain it was written FOR every one. "Your Song" is one we seek out, we love, and we both give a worthy 10! We are so happy to be back...hoped ya missed us :)
