Episode 6 - Party Anthems

Episode 6 - Party Anthems. This episode Becky and Matthew talk about what makes a Party Anthem. Is it the repetitive lyrics? A good dance beat? Or perhaps just a call to get drunk and rowdy. One song is from the 1987 (guess who's pick that was) and the other song is from 2009. PARTY ANTHEMS BECKY 0:07 Welcome to what the lyric, the podcast that confirms Yeah, that actually made it to radio. BECKY 0:22 Well hello everybody welcome to what the lyric, today we're talking party anthems. Again I took that to mean any song that everyone will sing along to. Or like the end all be all karaoke because there's always those karaoke songs that everyone busts out or the end of the night the drunkies all sing together slurred speech and all MATTHEW 0:50 Now tell me what is your familiarity with parties slash karaoke? BECKY 0:56 Uh, not really karaoke so much but I have I've been to a number of parties in my day, mostly in my younger days. I don't do like the parties, you know, much. MATTHEW 1:07 You don’t get swasted? BECKY 1:09 Oh god, no. If I get wasted now it takes me like a week to recover. We went to go, a friend of mine and I went to go see a show. We each had one drink. The show is on a Thursday night when it was like a beer because we're not that kind of people. Show is on a Thursday night, we both walked into work the next day, and we're like, we should have taken today off. BECKY 1:31 That's how bad it was. So yeah, MATTHEW 1:35 Well, well done BECKY 1:37 Back in the day. I did. I did boot and rally once. MATTHEW 1:41 No idea what that means. BECKY 1:43 Oh, so when you boot and rally means you've thrown up. And then you just get right back on the horse and start drinking again. MATTHEW 1:50 Oh, I see the horse boots ya and you rally, BECKY 1:55 You boot as in throw up and then you rally and you go back party. That was also the same time that I said, I could totally do a triathlon and then ended up doing having to do a triathlon. Not that same day, but like two years later I yeah. MATTHEW 2:13 That’s pretty rough. BECKY 2:16 Yeah, that was about 10 years ago. MATTHEW 2:23 Nope I’m not a party-er I’m a big old square generally. I just value sleep entirely too much. I love the taste alcohol. And like I'm a generally fun drunk, but my God, that for sleeping is like totally the worst. I'm trying to think of like the worst drunk I've ever been. Well, couple events. BECKY 2:46 I know. I was like, oh I got a few. MATTHEW 2:49 I think the dumbest one. I think the one that really encapsulates how I party may actually shape the song that I've chosen is the fact that I got horrifically drunk at Fourth of July like a couple of years ago, also is very stupid. BECKY 3:04 Please tell me Star Spangled Banner is your song? MATTHEW 3:06 Yes. No, it's what's the one that everyone has to listen to every Fourth of July. Born in the USA? BECKY 3:13 Yeah. Oh, fabulous. MATTHEW 3:14 Born in the USA. But really what happened, I am incredibly pale. I lose water like nobody's business there was a rooftop party. They had no water, just alcohol. So for the entire day, I had no water and was only drinking alcohol until like midnight and I'm like, Why do I feel so ill? That's weird. Oh, I'm incredibly dehydrated. And you know, thank God, but I really, as I laid on that cold bathroom tile floor. I was like, I'm going to die here. BECKY 3:50 Ah, that was me with kidney stones. So I know is the cold floor. And I'm going to die here. But yes, I feel you. BECKY 3:59 I feel very sane and I appreciate. BECKY 4:02 Similar pain Yeah.Oh God never kidney stones. BECKY 4:09 I know I have gone last time so I’m very curious to know. BECKY 4:15 So I will say aside from the signing up for a triathlon drunk, the boot and rally drunk, probably the second most popular time is when I said we were in Australia. I'm totally naming my first kid after this club and the night we were there was kinky disco, which is now I have a cat by the name of kinky disco. MATTHEW 4:39 I had no idea. BECKY 4:41 You did not know that. Yes, I my I'd gone with a friend of mine who eventually became my roommate. And we, I had said, Oh my God, this place is so great. I'm totally naming my first kid after that, and then we got a cat, Jimbo. And then she said Jimbo was lonely. And somehow convinced me to go to one of those pet adoption things and then she said you can name it whatever you want. And she picked out Kinks original name was pumpkin. blech, well Yeah. And so we get her in the car and she goes, what are you going to name her? And I was like, you know what's coming and she said, “No I don't know.. oh shit.” and I went kinky disco. And so for roughly 16 years kinky disco has been and she's lived up to her name. So that's, that's probably the two times the two really good times I've been. MATTHEW 5:41 Then I cannot wait to know what song you chose based purely on the times that you've been schwasted. BECKY 5:48 So I picked I'm going to just start reading the lyrics it’s from eighty eight. MATTHEW 5:54 Oh, again preconception for me. BECKY 5:56 You might know it from the movie. It was in a movie MATTHEW 6:00 Would giving me the movie title give it away. BECKY 6:02 It might MATTHEW 6:02 Okay then don’t BECKY 6:03 But you might have also not seen it because you're young enough where you might - Footloose which I saw so many times in theatre. When I wake up well, I know I'm going to be I'm going to be the man who wakes up next to you. MATTHEW 6:18 Yep. Now oh wait is it I forgot where the are there parentheses in the title? BECKY 6:27 there are. When I go out yeah I know I'm going to be I'm going to be a man who goes along with you MATTHEW 6:33 The proclaimers BECKY 6:34 Yes MATTHEW 6:36 I'm like is it I’m gonna be in parentheses 500 miles. BECKY 6:37 I'm going to be 500 miles Yeah, yeah. And I love this song mainly because it only came to me like at 5pm last night and we are recording at 3:30pm I was driving from doing my errands and this song came on and I first outing do when I wake up will I’m going to be I'm going to be the body's waked up a few because everyone does a shitty Scottish accent. And then BECKY 7:09 Once it gets to the chorus it's the but I would walk 500 miles, you know, however, I did every version of that accent through the entire song the whole drive home. I'm sure people were like what is happening in that car? MATTHEW 7:29 That woman is having a stroke BECKY 7:32 But I would walk 500 miles. I love it. I love that. I can't you can't not do it. I also again, I'm going to when I'm, if I get drunk Well, I know I'm going to be the man who gets drunk next to you. You won’t . I'm going to say it right now. You won't. I don't even know what haver up is. I have to look that up. Peter. I wish I could call you right now, but that would be rude to ask what haver up is because I know, MATTHEW 8:05 He probably knows. BECKY 8:06 I know he told me one time. And then you know he’d walk 500 miles and he'd walked 500 more, just to be the man who'd walk 1000 miles. Why don't you just go with I would walk 1000 miles to be the man why’d you have to add the 500? Maybe because they were twins and there were two of them. MATTHEW 8:27 Ah, that's true. Or did they know that, was it Vanessa Carlton was going to come along with 1000 miles? BECKY 8:34 I have some issue with that song. That’s a personal issue that can be discussed off mic. Yeah, I uh oh, god, it just that song in a song just makes me happy. Oh, it's talking, haver is talking foolishly or babbling. So if you're talking nonsense, I'm going to be the man talking nonsense next to you. You're Scottish I can't understand a lick of what you're saying anyways, so it doesn't really matter. BECKY 9:10 I also like that when he says to fall down at your door so he's walked 1000 miles MATTHEW 9:16 and died BECKY 9:17 and then just dropped because walking 1000 miles is a is a good distance. But I also like that he says when I'm working Yeah, I know I'm going to be I'm going to be the man who's working hard for you. And when the money comes in for the work, I do all pass almost every penny on to you. MATTHEW 9:40 Okay, well that's just being smart. BECKY 9:41 Just got to buy new shoes. If he's walking 500 miles you got to replace those things every so often. MATTHEW 9:46 I think that is reasonable... BECKY 9:48 Yep But I honestly, I spent the whole song doing But I would walk 500 miles. And I would walk 500 more. And then I would also duh duh duh da myself so the car doing a call repeat to myself so I'd be like duh duh duh da and then I kind of lean over a little bit further and be like duh duh duh da in my car while driving, so yes, MATTHEW 10:27 This one's going to be hard to rate just because it's like, I can't hate this song. BECKY 10:31 You can't cause everyone sings it. Everybody's going to wake up. BECKY 10:36 No I’m going to be, I’m gonna be the man next to you. It’s the way that they sing it. And I love it so much and every time that I hear it MATTHEW 10:47 I mean, there are some bad lyrics that I have just so much tremendous goodwill toward it. BECKY 10:51 It’s so it's so good. And then that the whole head bob thing. They're like chickens pecking at the ground the way they're MATTHEW 10:59 Like Scottish BECKY 11:00 Just furiously moving their necks and no, maybe it's a Scottish thing. I don't know. MATTHEW 11:06 One can assume. BECKY 11:07 Oh my god, I just it makes me happy. MATTHEW 11:12 I love that pick. BECKY 11:14 I also like, I just saw this one and if I grow old and then in parentheses, apparently the other brothers correcting the one when I grow old. MATTHEW 11:23 Oh, wow. BECKY 11:24 Well I know I'm going to be I'm going to be the man who's growing old with you. Cute. MATTHEW 11:29 Yeah, but he's going to die by the time he gets there. BECKY 11:31 I know he's fall down at your door. Uh, yeah. duh duh duh da BECKY 11:39 You know, if you were to just yell that out the window. Somebody else would be like duh duh duh da MATTHEW 11:46 They think they're a wedding. They feel like for whatever reason. Oh, yeah, this is another wedding song. BECKY 11:52 This is Benny. This is from Benny in June. That's where I remember seeing it. When it became really big. I bet you also if I yelled when I wake up MATTHEW 11:53 Oh yeah, BECKY 11:57 somebody else would be like, Well, I know I'm going to be. Yeah. Well, I know I'm going to be I'm going to be the man who wakes up next to you. MATTHEW 12:11 Oh, that's phenomenal. BECKY 12:13 That’s why I'm not an actor. I can't do accents at all MATTHEW 12:16 I disagree. I think that's one hell of an accent. BECKY 12:22 But I would walk … All comes from back in the throat. MATTHEW 12:25 I think the Scots would be inclined to agree. BECKY 12:29 It's almost like I'm about to throw up but I'm choking it back. MATTHEW 12:34 From all the drinking you did. BECKY 12:36 Yeah. And if I haver up, which I would assume is throw up but apparently it's talked gibberish. MATTHEW 12:46 Not as well don't. Well, but if you haver up, doesn't that mean that you're BECKY 12:53 Drunk? MATTHEW 12:54 Yeah, I was like, you're just spewing nonsense. I was like, that just sounds like you drunk. BECKY 12:59 He already starting with the drunk he's said when I wake up and then when he goes out, MATTHEW 13:04 Oh yeah, BECKY 13:05 I'm going to be drunk and then he's haver and MATTHEW 13:08 I mean that makes sense is a logical progression. BECKY 13:10 It was I mean they at least work that one out pretty good yeah da da dun da da dun da dun dun dun dun dun MATTHEW 13:17 I would, I give this a four. If I was like the least this is a four. You didn't try but then again my god you didn't need to. you have solved… BECKY 13:30 It’s really right there because everyone does this shitty Scottish accent but is nothing like these guys. Maybe this is my Halloween costume. MATTHEW 13:39 Oh please do. Last year's was hard to be beat. Oh, oh, I could probably I could figure it out. I mean, I did big ang last year. That's a tough one to beat. Yeah, I don't have to. I would have to answer the phone at work. That accent? When I wake up. I can't even do it. I got to listen to them sing it. MATTHEW 14:06 You can do it to the beat. BECKY 14:07 And only do it to this song. That would be hilarious. Can I help you - duh duh duh da? MATTHEW 14:15 And the other person's like, yes duh duh duh da. BECKY 14:18 I will only help you if you can answer this duh duh duh da MATTHEW 14:23 Here's a riddle when I wake up, and they just pause and wait for them to see a can answer. BECKY 14:29 Well, I know I'm going to be? I can't help you. I cannot help you. If you don't get this duh duh duh da Click. MATTHEW 14:39 That'll have to be a ringtone. BECKY 14:40 Oh my god. It might I might make it my ringtone now cut I honestly entertained myself for I don't know the songs. What? Three and a half minutes. MATTHEW 14:50 Oh, well, it's perfect. It's also an I don't know if this is a decent segue, but this it will be a segue nonetheleast. I see the repetition between ours is like a good match. Yeah. And what is slightly infuriating is like last time did MacArthur Park broke out of the 2008? Till, like, 2008 streak back in 2009. BECKY 15:10 Oh, right. Okay. MATTHEW 15:11 Very slight distinction. BECKY 15:20 All right. Well, I broke out of the me to movement. MATTHEW 15:23 That is true. BECKY 15:25 I mean, he just got drunk and was little, like, was a little stalker-y MATTHEW 15:27 but that maybe they were in a long term relationship and already ready. He doesn't have any miles. he did walk there. BECKY 15:36 That could be it. MATTHEW 15:37 So I chose one. And the title is the chorus. And its one word, which I feel like is unfair, and potentially too many clues. But I've tried to find lyrics that are not BECKY 15:52 2009 MATTHEW 15:53 Yeah. BECKY 15:55 Is that a band or just a singer? MATTHEW 15:57 Band? BECKY 15:58 Okay. All right. MATTHEW 16:01 And featuring someone but honestly I didn't realize who is featuring. It starts off with if you not drunk ladies and gentlemen get ready to get fucked up. BECKY 16:13 2009? MATTHEW 16:16 Yes, and I can't say the next line because includes the band's name BECKY 16:18 okay? MATTHEW 16:19 But the person who's featuring his little john so then they say, you know what, lil’ john Yeah. BECKY 16:27 Get down for what is it that like turned out for what? No. MATTHEW 16:32 No, All of the alcoholics were you at let's go BECKY 16:38 Oh so good so far MATTHEW 16:40 right? So it's fantastic. When I walk in the club, all eyes on me. I'm with the party rock crew. BECKY 16:48 Oh, is it the... MATTHEW 16:50 All drinks are free BECKY 16:51 It the father son duo a… Why can't I think of the name of them? MATTHEW 16:57 I don't think their father son. BECKY 17:00 Oh god, why can't I think of who they are? They had the party anthem Song. MATTHEW 16:57 Yes. BECKY 17:00 Sexy and you know it? Yeah, it’s a father song I believe. MATTHEW 17:11 Are you serious? BECKY 17:12 I will look it up while you're while you're continuing. MATTHEW 17:14 You're correct. It is LMFAO, BECKY 17:15 yep. MATTHEW 17:18 And what I thought about going with, Party Rock Anthem, but I was like, No, no, if we're talking party rock anthems or party anthems, that's just too That's too on the nose. So I went with the one that goes Shot shot shot shots shot shot shots. Yeah. BECKY 17:38 Oh, it's an uncle and a nephew. MATTHEW 17:41 Okay, well, that's basically BECKY 17:42 a little better. Yeah. Yeah. MATTHEW 17:45 And I mean, it is a party song everyone's trying to get wasted. BECKY 17:50 Oh, yeah MATTHEW 17:51 everyone, easily you sing along party for your drunk. All you have to do is yell there are no music to it. You just yell shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, and shot, shot. BECKY 18:00 I also like when I called them up the first photo is the one guy's wearing a shirt that says I'm in Miami bitch. But then it says performing in Fort Wayne, Indiana. MATTHEW 18:11 You know what's to say? Like dress for the job you want? Yeah, for the job. BECKY 18:15 Here we go. MATTHEW 18:16 He wants to be in Miami. BECKY 18:17 Oh my god. Yeah. BECKY 18:19 Probably. BECKY 18:20 Oh my god. Yeah. Who else was in this who? MATTHEW 18:23 Well, little john is featured but I just love that. Like they lean in hard to all this. all of the alcoholics Where are you at? They know their audience got to love that. And also, they're already saying like, even if you're not an alcoholic, if you're not drunk, ladies and gentlemen, get ready to get fucked up. And I'm like, BECKY 18:41 Yeah, this is happening. MATTHEW 18:43 All drinks are free with the party rock crew, which I'm like, that’s very kind of you. Then they go into the first round of shots, shots. Shots, so, perfect. But then it starts to get you know where Becky didn't Wade into the me to movement. Yeah, this one certainly does because the next round says are you ready? Are you ready? Oh, they stopped us for us. Okay, BECKY 19:13 Thank you Seattle PD. MATTHEW 19:17 The ladies... BECKY 19:18 Probably arresting someone outside the building. It’s fine. MATTHEW 19:20 They're already here. The ladies love us when we pour shots and I was like, Yeah, they're for free. That's fine. They need an excuse to suck our cocks BECKY 19:37 also probably true. I was like Can I just say me, written with his nephew? That's all I'm saying. Like MATTHEW 19:43 That really changes the song for me. Well, actually, I mean, yeah, honestly, I didn't realize that was lyric. So this is this was a transformative experience for me. Because I'm like, they need an excuse to suck our cocks and I was like I don't know many men, but I don't think there was there ever is a man who needs an excuse from one to be like, Can I suck your dick?I think that if... BECKY 20:14 I won't I don't know anyone who turned that down. MATTHEW 20:16 Straight forward was like, hey, put this out here, BECKY 20:20 Like a little attraction maybe didn't have to be fully attracted to you may be like, yeah, okay, MATTHEW 20:26 Fair. Yeah, I'll take it anyway, BECKY 20:28 You’re right. Yep. Sure. MATTHEW 20:30 But then they don't answer whether or not they accept it. They just say we came to get drunk. How about you? I'm like, ooh, well, all are drunk. Why are you giving them...? BECKY 20:40 Probably safe to assume accepted. I’m just saying. MATTHEW 20:43 I think that's BECKY 20:44 Safe to assume MATTHEW 20:45 Accurate BECKY 20:46 Yeah. MATTHEW 20:46 Ah. And then it's so you know, now where am I alcoholics Let me see a hands up and I was like, fair, anyone who's here probably schwasted particularly if it's at a wedding BECKY 20:58 And then this way, they can pick their pockets. to pay for the booze MATTHEW 21:03 Oh, absolutely. Oh, wait, also. I mean, it's more just like I love giving people drinks and like, that's a very sweet sentence. BECKY 21:12 Yeah. That’s lovely of you. MATTHEW 21:13 Also benefit oral from them being wasted. Yeah, which is uncomfortable. And then even worse, but very much on par is that the women come around every time I'm pouring. Well, that just seems accurate. I'd want a free drink. Their panties hit the ground every time I give them shots. BECKY 21:34 It could just be that by some weird kind of odd universe thing. That that's the only place that elastic just breaks and like that’s why their panties. Like the trees of mystery, or you go to one of those places. Yeah. Yeah, maybe that's what it is. It's like the club version of like, the trees of mystery. That's the only place where everyone's like elastic breaks in there. Yeah, MATTHEW 22:06 Which I think it's true. And then you know, it. Shots I thought it was just an up heart like upbeat song about people wanting to get drunk. I think that's true. But then the final some of the final lines are now Sam fucked up and then responses. I'm fucked up. Fantastic. But then they're saying, I'm fucked up. I and then response I'm fucked up. So you're like I get I get the gist here and then they say I'm trying to fuck. Everyone responds I'm trying to fuck. I'm trying to fuck. I'm trying to fuck. BECKY 22:42 So you picked the me to movement song MATTHEW 22:45 I did. I Sheryl Sandberg’d it? Where was she the one who leaned in? BECKY 22:48 I can't remember. MATTHEW 22:50 I think its Sandberg San something. It's a Sheryl. It's not the one who wrote into the wild or whatever. Oh, BECKY 23:01 Yeah, see, they're calling response isn't nearly as good as duh duh duh da . MATTHEW 23.10 Yeah, no, I'm inclined agree with you. BECKY 23:12 you can get better than duh duh duh da or a really awful Scottish accent. MATTHEW 23:15 But I would argue that if outside this one day you were to yell Shots, shots, shots. BECKY 23:19 Oh, yeah. Especially outside this window, because there's a bar right downstairs. MATTHEW 23:24 Everyone would can either chime in, or when you stop them go everybody. BECKY 23:31 Yeah. Yeah. BECKY 23:33 But again, there is a bar downstairs MATTHEW 23:36 It’s a biased sample. BECKY 23:37 Yeah. Yeah, I bet you we probably could. I bet you. Yeah. Yeah, MATTHEW 23:43 That’s what I'm thinking. So I mean... BECKY 23:46 I think we're both equally good. I say mine's more a little bit on the fun, wholesome side of things. So it's less on the yuck scale for me. MATTHEW 23:58 I agree. I mean, there both probably I would even bump mine to a three. BECKY 24:05 Yeah, MATTHEW 24:05 It’s it. It cannot be a four. Yeah, I'm trying to fuck and also women need an excuse to suck my cock. BECKY 24:13 I think what makes mine on the yuck scale is the people who sing along like I did with the shitty shitty accent along with it. So the I would walk 500 miles and I would walk that makes it shitty? or yucky, but really, it makes it a whole lot fun. So I would say this is like a one depending on which drunk tries to do there MATTHEW 24:47 Oh wait... BECKY 24:48 There accent MATTHEW 24:49 As our scale change, BECKY 24:50 I can't remember now where I'm with. It's low. It's a low Yeah, factor. MATTHEW 24:57 Like Yeah, low Yikes. Lower Yeah. BECKY 25:01 Yikes Yeah. Oh my god. MATTHEW 25:04 We haven't had caffeine okay. Yeah, that's BECKY 25:06 That’s exactly what's happened I just realized I have not had caffeine all day. Geez No wonder. MATTHEW 25:12 How are you alive? It's nearly 4pm BECKY 25:15 Considering at work I drink death wish coffee. It is difficult. MATTHEW 25:22 You're going to crash at 6pm. BECKY 25:24 I probably will in the middle of that opera. BECKY 25:27 Please watch it please watch.... BECKY 25:28 Paris Hilton. BECKY 25:31 Yeah, uh, yeah. Oh my god. That's why I was like, why am I yawning? No death wish. BECKY 25:39 Oh death wish coffee. If you want to sponsor us too, I'd really appreciate that. Oh, because I tots love your coffee. And I'm from the same area. So let's chat death wish SPEAKER 25:53 Give us a call. You don't know our number. But you know our website. BECKY 25:56 You've got the website, which is whatthelyric.com MATTHEW 26:02 Fantastic Yeah, BECKY 26:03 Now do we know do we know what...? BECKY 26:05 I can't remember what it was next time? That's awful MATTHEW 26:10 So TB TBD BECKY 26:12 I left the house clearly no death wish Coffee, no headphones, I don't even know what happened how I got here .Yeah, so...... MATTHEW 26:22 We’re hoping you're not having a collective stroke like we are but BECKY 26:25 You might be MATTHEW 26:26 But if you are hopefully you're enjoying it. We will have more episodes to come. BECKY 26:31 I think we have what three left that we decided. MATTHEW 26:35 Yes. BECKY 26:35 Oh boy. MATTHEW 26:36 Let's take a look. Well we'll post it on the web. BECKY 26:39 Yes. Well I’ll all up? I still have to put the picture up of the rock aka. MATTHEW 26:45 I did look that up and can confirm it is you’re.... BECKY 26:51 Yeah. I almost want to shout out to the rock and say are you guys related? Could you confirm or deny Please. MATTHEW 27:01 I think he'd appreciate it. If he ever saw.... BECKY 27:02 I think he went to he seems like a guy's got a good sense of humour about himself. I mean, you'd have to if you work for the WWE/F, whatever they are now, says the girl who went when one year for Valentine's Day. So amazing. It was the best Valentine's Day I've ever had.

Episode 5 - Podcasters Choice

Episode 5 - Podcasters Choice - Anything goes on this edition of What the Lyric. Becky and Matthew choose their favorite bad lyrics from any decade and and genre. One is from 2016 and the other is from 1978. Who will be victorious? Podcasters Choice [Start 00:00:00] [Music playing 00:00:06] Becky: Welcome. To What he Lyric? the podcast that confirms, yeah, that actually made it to radio. Hello and welcome to What the Lyric? Today and What the Lyric? podcasters choice, we pick apart whatever song we want, it's a free for all. And I have picked something recent. Matthew: Oh. Becky: I think it still fits into the me-too movement theme I got going on. Matthew: I do have to ask first though. Most hated bands… Becky: These guys. Matthew: Across the board… Becky: Yes. Matthew: Do not tell me yet. But any others like… Becky: These guys. Matthew: Was it an easy choice for you to make? Becky: Yes. It was so… The first song that James Arthur, horrific train wreck of a wedding song that people are using. That one and I think this one are the reason that this podcast exists. Matthew: Wow. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: There was no other song. That popped into your head? Becky: Nope. This one. I was like and this is it. There are a couple others. That I thought of because they were funny, but I was like, no, I hate this one immensely. Like. So much, so much Matthew: Fascinating. See! Mine was less generated by hatred and more confusion. Because I do have… This is again a favourite song of mine. Becky: Kind of how bizarre confusion? Matthew: Yes. Becky: Okay. Matthew: It is precisely how bizarre. I think everyone has heard the song and everyone has been like the fuck. I am excited to get into that. Becky: Then I am going to let you go first, because… Matthew: Really? Becky: Yeah. Matthew: End on the hatred note but start with confusion. Becky: I have got a heavy dissertation going on over here. Matthew: I mean, it is going to take, you no time to get… Becky: Okay. Matthew: What this song is. I am trying to think. Let me find. Oh, the songwriter is Jimmy Webb. And you know what… Becky: Jimmy Webb? Matthew: You’re going to have to think of more of the 70s. This is coming out of the 70s. I am breaking my millennial streak and also my 2008 streak. Becky: Does it have to do with pina colada? Matthew: It does not, although that is a fantastic song and I will not hear a word about those lyrics. I am going to skip the part where the song title is. Well, let's just start at the beginning. Spring was never waiting for us, dear. It ran one-step ahead as we followed in the dance. Blank is melting in the dark. There is your first clue. Becky: Is this MacArthur Park? Matthew: Yes, and I… Becky: And I can't tell you how much I love this song for craziness of it. Matthew: Right, but precisely right. If you look at the lyrics and this is a fantastic song by Donna Summer. Becky: Oh, no. It is not, have you read the history of this? Matthew: I have read a part of it. I don't know all of it. I love the Donna Summer version. Becky: Oh, that is the classic. That one. Yes. Then Anthony Clark, a comedian, did a version. Well, he did a part about this song and his bit, which always made me giggle. We used to play this at work, I looked it up, and there was somebody that did a cover of it. That we then spent a good half an hour trying to find so that we could play it. Now I get to look it up. But yes, MacArthur Park, genius. Matthew: So I already knew off the bat, like, this is going to be low on the yikes scale. because… Becky: Oh, it is so good. Matthew: It is a phenomenal song if you have not heard it. But again, the entire thing is about MacArthur Park. Becky: Cake out in the rain. Matthew: And supposedly, it is supposed to be about the park because it says MacArthur's park is melting in the dark. Becky: Yep. Matthew: All the sweet green icing flowing down, presumably foliage. Becky: Yep. Matthew: And then it just goes off the fucking rails and it is like someone left the cake out in the rain. I don't think that I can take it. Cause it took so long to bake it. Becky: Oh, my God. Matthew: And I will never have that… Becky: Here is when I hear the disco [Making noise 00:4:48] noise, yeah. Matthew: There is so much going on in the song and this person is lamenting it took so long to bake it and I will never have that recipe again. And the series of oh no. Like you cannot describe the depth of emotion captured by that no. Becky: So good. It is so good. And it's a seven minute long song. Also my favourite, it was Waylon Jennings. Matthew: I did not know Waylon Jennings. Becky: Including a 1969 Grammy winning version by Waylon Jennings. And you can hear how pissed off he was singing that. Like he's fuckin lyrics don't mean shit. He was probably drunk or stone or whatever. Matthew: [Inaudible 00:5:30] Becky: Yeah. Oh, amazing. Waylon Jennings, Grammy won a Grammy. Matthew: Did not know that. Also, I apologize, it was not in the 70s but it was in the 60s. Becky: Yeah, 69. Yeah. I had to look it up. Matthew: General area. Becky: 68 was when it was first recorded. But you were close. It is a known area for the Donna Summer one. Matthew: Right. Becky: My mom had that album by the way. Matthew: I mean it is phenomenal. And the thing is, there aren't many lyrics here. And I would argue that none of them are terrible. It is just so fucking weird. Like I recall the yellow cotton dress. Okay, that makes sense presumably someone wearing it, foaming like a wave. That makes absolutely no sense. And the ground beneath your knees, even less sense. Like how do you track and create lyrics that make absolute zero sense when you take three sentences together. Becky: Let's be honest. Late 60s, the whole summer of love coming up soon. Matthew: Wholesome non-drug usage Becky: Probably a lot of drugs happening. Why is there a cake reference? What the whole cake reference? Matthew: Like looks at a park and says, you know, I really want to go to the cake. Becky: It looks like a cake. Matthew: Everything that I walk around this park screams cake. Becky: I have never had a park look like a cake. Yeah, Matthew: I would want to go the park more if it did. Becky: That's again, that's an acid trip. And I may or may not have seen things that looked unlike that. Matthew: It’s just like so weird because someone… Interesting fact, though, if you look at the lyrics, the first time you hear about the cake. It says someone left the cake out in the rain. She says it again; someone left the cake out in the rain. A little bit later on the song, the final stanza… Becky: Does it becomes her cake? Matthew: It does. It said someone left my cake out in the rain. And I don't think that I can take it because it took so long to bake it. And I'll never have that recipe again. Becky: I will tell you what. After the whole cake off that we had at work, I understand that layer… Matthew: There was a cake off? Becky: We had the cake off. The Halloween theme, Friday the 13th, cake off. Matthew: Well, we should clarify that this cake off was not for October Friday the 13th. It was a September Friday. Becky: Yeah it was September, Friday 13th, a Halloween. It was more horror Friday 13th inspired cake off that we did it work. And yeah, I get that. I get that. The It cake I did was rough. I will never do that one again. And I hope I never remember that recipe because it did take so long to bake it. Matthew: And you will never do that recipe again. Becky: And I will never do that recipe again. Yeah. So yeah, I get it. I understand where she's coming from on that. I mean, I get it. I am with her. Matthew: I know. All of them get it. I mean I personally don't understand the analogy of a park to a cake. Becky: So good. Matthew: The emotion in it, regardless of how… Becky: She is good. Matthew: batshit crazy the lyric are. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: I honestly give this zero yikes. Because it is, weird but I just wanted to bring it because it is a favourite song. Becky: It is so good. Matthew: And it make so a little sense. Becky: Yeah. It makes no sense whatsoever. It is so good. So good. All right. So mine. Matthew: Who do you hate? Oh, it might be recent. I might get it. Becky: It is from 2016. Matthew: Ariana Grande? Becky: Oh, no, it’s a group and then another singer. These guys are known also for being producers, but they do all these collabs, as the kids say. And this was the first time that I heard them. At first I was like, well, this is kind of bland. Then I start listening to lyrics and I wanted to punch them in the face. Matthew: I am intrigued. Becky: Okay let me read some of the lyrics. Here is how it starts. Hey, I was doing just fine before I met you. I drink too much and that is an issue, but I am okay. No. hey! tell your friends it was nice to meet them, but I hope I never see them again. I know it breaks your heart. Moved to the city in a broke down car. In 4 years, no calls. Now you are looking pretty in a hotel bar. And I can't stop. No, I can't stop. Matthew: I remember vaguely the song and I would not remember it if I had not heard you. Months ago talking about how much you hate this band. Becky: Eviscerate this band. Yeah. Matthew: I forget what the song is called, but is it The Chainsmokers? Becky: Oh, it is. Both Speakers: And Halsey. Matthew: That is it. Becky: I necessarily have issue with Halsey. I have a lot of issues with the fucking Chainsmokers. First off, let us just start with. I drink too much and that is an issue, but I am okay. No, clearly you are not. This is what AA is. Matthew: I have issue but I am okay. Becky: I'm okay. No, it is intervention time. Then like he sees you looking pretty good in a hotel bar? This is the dude that broke up with you because you got fat. Then comes back and is like, whoa! Somebody lost some weight. And wants to get back in on it. No, and then it goes in to baby pull me closer in the backseat of your rover that I know you can't afford. Come on. You don't know that. You have been away from her for four years. She could be doing well because she did not have that frickin rock of an ex hanging around her. Matthew: Dragging her down. Becky: Yeah. Pull the sheets right off the corner of the mattress you stole from the roommate back in Boulder. There are several issues here. First off, bed bugs. Matthew: Absolutely riddled with them. There is no way she is not. Becky: God knows what else is on that mattress. Or has been on that mattress. There is not enough steam cleaning. or defogging or what you do with a mattress to kill anything that is on it. You should have just left that out in the backyard or on the side of the street somehow. No, gross. So gross. I can’t even. How is that a lyric in a song way? Matthew: Wait, pause because technically wait. Not only bed bugs would be a concern, but she… Both Speakers: Stole it. Becky: From her roommate. Matthew: Yeah, at what point… Becky: We don’t know. Matthew: Did she just decide to up and leave while the like roommate was at work. Oh, shit this is a nice like Caspar mattress. Caspar if you would like to sponsor this podcast. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Please contact us. Becky: I picture like the tablecloth trick. Roommate sleeping whip the mattress out from underneath there. Drops 0n the box spring and runs. Matthew: Done, love it. Becky: That is what I am picturing. Gross, cooties. You don't know what that roommate's done on that mattress. What if that roommate blacked out, drunk, peed on the bed or… Matthew: Worse? Becky: Worse or, you know, maybe… Matthew: There are so many imagination. Becky: There is so, many fluids that could be on that bed. Matthew: And likely are. Becky: Again, not enough steam cleaning or de-fogging or whatever you could do. Matthew: When they say get a new mattress every eight years, they mean get a new mattress from the factory, not a new mattress to you. So don't steal your roommates mattress. Becky: Yeah and no amount of mattress bag or pads could get me further away. I am like the princess and the pea. I would be like, I still now that there is pee there. Matthew: Wow! Again, well done. Becky: Yeah. Then he just like we ain’t ever getting older. You are, you are, you are, you turd, you are, you are. I can't stand these guys. Then now all of a sudden he is like, you look as good as the day I met you. I forgot just why I left you. Cause you are a turd. I think we have established you are an alcoholic turd. Because you have a drinking problem, but you are okay with it. The first reason to leave the guy, I don't know why you even went back. I mean, granted, maybe your whole revenge plot was the mattress did have some sort of cooties and you put him down there first was like, I will be right back. Matthew: Good lie. Becky: While all the bugs jump on him. Matthew: Abandon ship. Becky: Yeah, I mean, I can't. I would not. Then he says, stay and play that Blink-182 song, right there Matthew: Yeah, which is it...That one? Becky: I’m out. Blink-182. Are we that old? Matthew: Wait, which one is it? Becky: Blink-182. There is so many. Oh, it's the one that they beat to death in Tucson. Did they beat the Blink-182 to death? Matthew: Blink-182 death. Becky: Then it just goes the course. I know I broke your heart. I know it breaks your heart. Moved to a city in a broke down car and four years later didn't call. I don't know why? Why? Matthew: This go back into your craw. Becky: I was like, what the…This is bull shit. You don't know I can't afford a Rover. I am paying for your sad ass. And not four years later I've been able to save up for a Rover and then bite the tattoo on your shoulder. No, you ain’t touching me. Matthew: Gross don't? Becky: Get your get your shit away. Get your… Matthew: Bed bug infested. Becky: You need to get back to the hole. Just get on track. Now I am looking pretty in a hotel bar. Matthew: Wait, he is saying that? Becky: That is her singing it now. Matthew: Oh, yikes. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: No. Becky: I mean. I am sure you are Halsey. You are a good looking gal. But…And I and I can't stop. No, I can't stop. Yeah. It is called self-control. Matthew: Yeah. No, I have… Becky: I can’t stand this, I can’t… everything. Matthew: What I love about this. Going back to the we ain't ever getting older because I'm like, wait. You already admitting you have a drinking problem. So like, that is for sure. Aging your liver. Becky: You are going to get aged quick. Matthew: But your band is The Chainsmokers. Yeah, like all are 100 percent getting old just because you are going to die young. Does that mean you are not getting older? Becky: Yeah. Then they have a collab with Coldplay that I just hear everywhere. Is that I want something just like this. Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo. I can't. Mathew: Oh, I never heard it. Becky: Oh, you have. Matthew: Have I? Becky: You have. Yeah, it is fucking everywhere. That one, they have another one, and I was like, oh, this sounds like…oh it is The Chainsmokers. This feeling maybe. I don't know. I can't. They just need to stop. They need to really take stock of what, the hell they are doing. I am sure they are great producers. I don't give a shit. Just don't sing anymore. Don't write any more lyrics. Just produce the music. Be happy with making that money. You are good looking guys. You get whatever you want. Matthew: You will be fine. Becky: You will be giving the ladies. It is not a big deal. Just stop singing and putting out this piece of crap. Matthew: Now the question I have. Is, how many yikes you assigning it? One is the worst. Are you going for one? Becky: There are a big fat one for me, across the board. You could go, hey, The Chainsmokers. Nope. one. I don't like it. I don't like it. They could do something with Pavarotti. And I'm still like, no. They could bring Elvis back from the dead. And I will still say, no. Beatles back from the dead. Nope, nothing. There is nothing. Yeah. Matthew: What, if they cured cancer? Becky: Maybe Matthew: That is hard maybe. Becky: Maybe if they cured cancer and never recorded again… Matthew: Deal. Becky: I would pump it up to two. But they won't stop producing crap. Matthew: No. Becky: It is in their blood now. They have had like two or three hits. So now they're like, yeah, Matthew: We are band. Becky: We fucking rock. Everything we touch turns to gold bitches. Yeah. No. Matthew: Yikes. Becky: I hate them. I hate them. Oh, my God, they make my skin crawl. I hate so much. Matthew: It is important to have that. I was like, okay, this is good, you know. James Arthur, Becky: James Arthur and The Chainsmokers. Matthew: Wait for that collab. When that does inevitably happen. We will have to talk about it here. Becky: Oh, it is going to happen. You know it is going to happen. Matthew: If it has not already. Becky: The sweet, sweet dulcet tones of James Arthur followed by the. I don't even know what the producing style of the… Matthew: The Chainsmokers Becky: The Chainsmokers. Matthew: We know that there singing style will be slurred because both of them have drinking problem. Becky: Yes. It is all about alcohol, and I am pretty sure it'll take forever because I have to keep stopping for a smoke break, run out side. Then come back in and be like, all right, let's do it. Matthew: Ah, the wheeze. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Just wait for the smokers hack. Becky: Before, okay. Let me just clears out. [Making coughing hacking sound 00:19:20] All right I am ready, and then… Both speakers: That is the dulcet of James Arthur. Becky: Yeah. Oh, yeah. Matthew: Wow! Cause there, you know. Puff, huffing and puffing. Becky: I am trying to think. They don't even really singing that song. It is like doing just fine before. Like mumbling of, yeah. Matthew: [Inaudible 00:19:40-45] Becky: Yeah. It is like a teenager who's doesn't want to talk to his parents. That is what it is like. That is how they sound to me. Matthew: They just get close to the microphone [Inaudible 00:19:57]. Becky: I am pretty sure that's how they do it. Matthew: You know the mumblers. Becky: Yeah. Oh my God. Oh… Matthew: Mumble core. Becky: I dislike…the mattress you stole from…What is wrong with you people? Have we not heard of hygiene? I mean. Matthew: They, no. Becky: Bleach? anything. Please, dear God. Matthew: You have the money. Please buy a new mattress. Becky: Yeah. You could buy 50 or 40, however. Matthew: I think we should make several pleas here. The first is please send us pizza or cake whenever you so desire. Check out the Website. Becky: Oh, yes. Matthew: whatthelyrics.com. Becky: Nice one. I am glad you pulled that one because I didn’t. I was not even thinking about it. Matthew: And specifically, we are going to make a plead directly to The Chainsmokers to use their money, put their money to good use and buy a new mattress. You deserve it, Casper mattresses. Becky: Just buy a new mattress every year because if this song is any indication of what you are going through and doing. Maybe even every six months. Matthew: Wait; was the name of the song? Remind me. Becky: Closer. Matthew: That is a closer. Well, that will be. Becky: I don't want to get closer. I don't want to get closer to that mattress. I don't want to get closer to them. I don't want to get closer to anything in this song. I don't understand. Why are we just glossing over your alcoholism? That is like a one-liner. Like yeah! I know I drink too much. It is all right. Matthew: No, it is not a problem. Becky: I am a throw up on that mattress you stole from your roommate. Then I am going to pass out, blackout and pee on it like… Matthew: You are going to love it. Becky: Oh and why do you want to take that back? Matthew: No, instead of closer. That was will be our closer. Becky: Oh, I like it. Matthew: Well, what will we be talking about next time? Becky: Next time. Its party anthems. Matthew: What kind of party anthems? Becky: Yeah, it’s kinda open… children's birthday party. So party anthems I took to mean a song that everyone sings along to has their own kind of version of it when they sing. Or is like the go to karaoke one or like the end of the night drunky song that everybody sings drunk to. That is what I kind of took as the party anthem. Matthew: I have mine. I don't know if it's from 2008, but it's probably close. Becky: Minds of course, from the 80s. This I believe, is the first one that does not fit into the me too movement theme. I finally found one. Matthew: We’re doing good work. Becky: Maybe I can work it there. I got to look at the lyrics again, but I'm pretty sure it's not really, me too. It is more stalker-y. Matthew: Okay, in the family of but not directly under the category. Becky: Yeah, there is no overt booty references. Matthew: Mambo number 5? Becky: There is no donkey… ass Matthew: With a monkey Becky: Yeah, no big old butt kind of thing. Matthew: Not yet. Becky: Not yet. Although I don't know. It would be hilarious to have this. Yes next time. Party anthems. I cannot wait for mine. Matthew: Well, I am excited and we will talk ‘atcha then? Becky: Yes. Talk to you soon. [Music playing] [End 00:24:00]

The Hip Hop episode

In this episode Becky and Matthew delve deep into the late 80s and the early 2000s hip hop. Will it be a hip hop battle to end all battles? What the Lyric? Rap/Hip-Hop [Start 00:00:00] Music: [00:00:07] Becky: Welcome to What the Lyric?, the podcast that confirms. Yeah, that actually made it to radio. Welcome to What the Lyric? Today we are talking about hip-hop, the rap. I don't know what else I'd call it. Matthew: The rap. Becky: The rap. Matthew: I mean you are talking to the two white people in the room talking about hip-hop. That is what this episode is. Becky: I know. Oh, this is going to go down horribly. Although I do love my 80s, rap and I love the old Run DMC stuff before Aerosmith. Who else is in there? I am trying to think. A tribe called Quest. Although I cannot remember if they were 80s or not. It all runs together now for me. Then, of course, Public Enemy. I don't think that was 80s. Maybe they were 80s. Oh, my God. Yeah. Oh, there is a lot in there. 3rd Bass. That is right; I pull out 3rd Base, which you will never know. But the one guy in 3rd Base, a white guy is now like a baseball historian at Cooperstown, if I remember correctly. Matthew: That is a turn career. Becky: Yeah, Pete Nice. Was it Pete Nice? Oh I don't think it was Pete Nice. I cannot remember who it was now. Matthew: Was it was not Pete Townsend? Becky: No, now I am going to have to look it up. Who were the members of 3rd Base? Yeah, so that is where I am coming from. Matthew: Interesting. Mine, you know. Like, that is all I really need to say. We actually had a very interesting discussion at the end of the last episode talking about where does R&B begin versus hip-hop specifically. Becky: Yes. Matthew: I approach hip-hop from the more R&B side. So I am thinking Beyoncé, Lemonade. Becky: All right, okay. Matthew: To an extent, Drake, although he is not my favourite. Becky: Oh God! Matthew: And then smaller artists, particularly from the HBO show Insecure, has some very good hip-hop… Becky: See I don’t know that. Matthew: References. TT the artists. What is the name of the song? Is featured in it. She is great. Now I will have to introduce you to it. Then, of course, where would we be? But two people, two white people talking about hip hop. Also, listen to the entirety of Hamilton and needed to get said. There it is. It has been said we can now glaze past it. Becky: I only know the Alexander Hamilton [Making sound 00:2:56]. I don't know anything else. Matthew: That is all you need to know. That is what the musical is. Becky: Yeah, I. Oh, man. I think I was right with Pete Nice. What did I say? Oh, my God. Matthew: You did say Pete Nice. Becky: Yeah. There is MC Serch and Pete Nice, but I feel like. Yeah. Pete Nice. Baseball historian, I had it right the first time. Matthew: Well, with a band name like 3rd Base, you kind of have to. Becky: They had a song called The Cactus. Matthew: Why? Becky: I can't even remember. I just remember The Cactus. I am sure I still have that CD somewhere. But yeah, The Cactus. Matthew: I love. Becky: I cannot even remember. It is all gone. It is so bad; they did have a big hit. What was their big hit? Matthew: Was, it baseball related? Becky: No, surprisingly. You would think with a name like 3rd Base. Pop goes the weasel. Matthew: Oh. Becky: From 1991. I remember that. That sounds like a hit. I did not have that one. I had the Cactus album and that was eighty-nine derelicts of dialect, which had the pop, goes the weasel. Yep, that was ninety-one. That was when I graduated high school. Matthew: I won't say where I was at the time. Becky: And a hoodie [Laughing], moving on. All right. I am going to let you go first this time. Matthew: All right. So like I said, my primary job on this podcast is to serve as millennial ambassador. Becky: And I am the only. Matthew: There is a generation, obviously listen to this podcast. Who is waiting for your songs, too? Becky: I am sure. Matthew: But I want to bring them up to speed in case they hopefully missed it. Becky: I would also like to point out I am representing old school with my older school tortoiseshell old schools. Matthew: Wow! Well done. Actually… Becky: I did not even think about that. I just put them on this morning. Matthew: I should as a side note, give Becky more credit for being much more fashionable than me. I mean, because I have just got like these shitty Nike… Becky: No Matthew: Running shoes and blue jeans. Becky: It is Old Navy jeans and Adidas. It is not really fashionable, it is just comfortable. Matthew: As we should. Becky: As my vsco [Inaudible 00:5:26] said. Matthew: Oh, I forgot the vsco queen of this podcast. Becky: Yeah, the old lady vsco queen. Matthew: So really, this song I remember driving to high school, I think senior year of high school. Becky: Okay. Matthew: This song is being played a lot. Becky: 2008? Matthew: 2008 Becky: Okay. Matthew: Right. I was graduating high school that year. Becky: Lord, have mercy, okay. Matthew: And more specifically, I am trying to think. Where do I go with this? I am not really sure, but let me just say… Becky: 2008 [Inaudible 00:6:09] Matthew: There you go. Very fluent in Spanish. Becky: Is he like Pitbull? Matthew: Oh, nailed it, yes. And it was his first song. Because I was going to say, like oh! He is like… Becky: The one with Robin Thicke? Matthew: I did not know there was one, but that really disturbs me. Becky: Where he sing I don't like it. I love it, love it, love it. Oh, is that Pitbull? That is Pitbull. Matthew: Probably. Becky: yeah, oh boy. Matthew: This is his first one. He speaks a lot of Spanish and again, since I am incredibly white. Even though I grew up in Texas, I know no Spanish. Because I took French in high school for whatever… Becky: Yeah, I took German. Matthew: For whatever godforsaken reason. But my favourite my favourite thing about Pitbull is the fact that he can't decide on a nickname. He is either Mr. 305 or he is Mr. Worldwide, which therefore implies that the entirety of the 305 area code is actually the world to either him, which could either be very sweet, or the fact that he doesn't travel a lot. Becky: 305, Miami, I am assuming? Matthew: Yes. Becky: Yeah, okay. Mathew: So that is where he is from. I am assuming he is Cuban. No offense to Mr. Pitbull, if he eventually listens to this podcast… Becky: I think he is. Matthew: Which I highly doubt. Becky: I am sure he is a big fan. Matthew: Obviously. Becky: Can't wait to get fan mail about that one. Matthew: So really, the song that he chose was I know you want me. Becky: Mm hmm. Matthew: Which makes several assumptions that I think Pitbull has not quite figured out. I am not sure there, is a huge audience who is craving his music, but nonetheless, he still posits that people do want him. Again, most of it is in Spanish. So I will skip those parts because quite simply, I just did not take the time to Google translate any of it. The bad lyrics for it. I give it minus one point for repetitiveness… Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Because some of it is simply. I know you want me, want me. Then it is like… Becky: oh, God, I don't remember. Matthew: You know I want you, want you. Then it just repeats multiple times. I will not go into that. There is a lot of just, word association. Becky: Yeah, okay. Matthew: I know that Good hip-hop. You can do word association. And it makes sense and it flows. Pitbull just being like, oh, shit. Got it right. Like you can you can hear him like a train barrels towards the end. Becky: Those are make the favourite raps. Post Malone, I hate that guy so much for this. At one point, he says something. He is trying to rhyme something. Instead of saying Luck Roy, he is says Lecroy, so he can rhyme it. First off, I hate that damn drink anyways. Second, you cannot even pronounce it right. Why? Just so you can fit in your little rap. Mr. Syracuse? I don't think so. Matthew: Oh, he is from Syracuse. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Congrats. Another New York native like Becky. Becky: Yeah. I did not get all the face tats, though. Matthew: Not yet, you are young. Becky: Working on it. I am working on it. Matthew: Pitbull goes on to say, you know, stick to the clock on my way to the top, which I am like, okay. He is being timed. One assumes. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: I do not think that is necessarily a bad lyric. Then there is just a weird word association, so like Pit got it locked from Bruce to the lock her. The bruise, b-r-e-w-u-s according to the lyrics, I find that amusing. RIP so rest in peace… Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Huh, Big and PAC. P-A-C, I don't know if that's like the… Becky: Biggie and Pac? Biggie and 2Pac Matthew: That is what I am assuming, right? Becky: Yeah, okay. Matthew: So it is like ok, he is doing due diligence as one does in hip-hop by making references. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: So far he has not necessarily run afoul of anything, he said premise. Becky: He is also hitting both coasts like he's trying and play Sweden… Matthew: Right? Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Even though he very clearly raps the east coast by being like Mr 305 checking in for the Remix. Becky: Yet it is also Miami like it's not New York vs LA… Matthew: You can calm down. Becky: Hip-hop, yeah. Matthew: He extends his condolences to both of them, and then disses himself. Becky: Many years kind of late too, by the way. Matthew: This is where I started to get concerned. As far as bad lyrics and also his self-esteem, because he immediately feels like R.I.P too Bigg and Pac. That he is not, but damn, he is hot. So what that implies to me is, Pitbull is actually saying that, oh, actually I'm not nearly as talented as Bigg and Pac, which I was like… Becky: Truth, Matthew: Which is just truth. Becky: Truth. Matthew: I do appreciate it. Then he has to saddle himself like, you know, I can never be them, but I am attractive. And that's still a stretch. Becky: Yeah, I would say to 2Pac is probably better looking than him in my opinion. Matthew: I would agree. I am inclined to agree. Pitbull, He has a face like a pit bull. Becky: He does, there is a reason he have that name. Yeah. Matthew: I don't know what it is, but I can assume it's his face. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: And so continuing. What is even weirder is that he is like the label flop. So he's already saying that like whatever label he's on is going to flop presumably because of his songs like that doesn't inspire confidence. So it's like again, a diss at the start. Then he says, but Pitt won't stop. Label flop, but Pitt won't stop. Becky: Wait a minute. Maybe what he is saying is, you know, I like when you would be like, oh, my God, I am totally failing this test. Then you nail it like he's psyching himself out, like I am the shittiest rapper. Then boom! Platinum. Matthew: Huge fame. I don’t know if this ever went platinum. I would be surprised, but also not surprised if that were to happen. Becky: You never know. Matthew: But he is always starting with the dislike that he is not. But damn, he's hot. Label flop. But Pitt won't stop. And I'm like, ok. Then very left turn. Got her in the car playing with his como. And that's where he answered Spanish. Oh, wait, why are you having sex in a car? I am not surprised. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: But he was like, I am going to be an amazing rapper. Oh no, getting my dick sucked in a car. Becky: Well, all right. I mean, you know, to each his own is all I am saying. You granted it back in the day… Matthew: So, we should let Pitbull have his own. Becky: Whatever makes him happy? You do you. Live your best life. Matthew: Right. And this is where the associations continue because right. In two lines, He has gone from being like, I am sorry that Biggie died… Becky: Yeah. Matthew: And Tupac died. The label is going to flop. I mean, but I am going to keep making music. I am receiving oral in our car. Then he says, watch him make a movie like Alfred Hitchcock. Ha! Enjoy me. Becky: Has, he made a movie? Matthew: No, not at all. None. I don't think he's directed his own music videos. If he has, I can tell you the music one for this one. Looks like it was directed by… Becky: I might know somebody who has done a video with him. Matthew: Did they direct it? Becky: No. He is a cinematographer. Curious at least he picked a good director. Matthew: Right. Becky: Alfred Hitchcock. Matthew: He was not choosing… Becky: One of my favourites. Matthew: I am trying to think of who would be a bad director. Becky: Well, the guy did. Oh, God. What is that movie that? James Franco did a movie about him that won an award, but he did not. Matthew: Tommy Wiseau. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Watch him make a movie like Tommy Wiseau. Huh! Enjoy me. Becky: See, that works a little better for this. Matthew: It actually does. Becky: If he could have just let us edit his words, he would be spot on. Yeah, either him. I am trying to think Ed Wood. Matthew: What does he do? I don't think I know, Ed Wood. Becky: Oh, you have to go back and watch an Ed Wood movie. I think one of my favourites, which is called Jail Bait. And there's this weird 1950s. There is this weird, depending on which version you get. There is this weird kind of like guitar piece in it that keeps showing up randomly throughout and you think it is there to like build tension, but you are like, [Inaudible 00:15:01] just threw that guitar riff in there for no real reason. It is like you have flamenco, kind of. I don't know how to describe it, but it's hilarious. Johnny Depp actually starred is him in a movie called Ed Wood. He was pretty epic at making like B movies where you're like, what! is going on here? Plan 9 from outer space, I think is him… Matthew: Oh! Okay, Becky: Yes. Jailbait is probably my favourite. Matthew: I will have to check these out. Thank you for the movie recommendation. The last time I recommended Repo the Genetic Opera. Becky: Yeah. Plan 9 from outer space… Matthew: Jailbait first. Becky: Jailbait though is my favourite and I used to own it on VHS. That is how old I am. Matthew: Oh yeah. If it makes you feel any better. I was acquainted with VHS. Becky: Yeah. I am the VHS. Oh God! That movie was so good. So bad, it was so good. I am sure it is him, Jailbait. It has to be. He has done so many, and I think he did with like Vampira. Yeah, that is Ed Wood. Oh, so many. Oh, yeah. Glen or Glenda? Also a classic. Mm hmm. Genius of a man. Matthew: That is incredible. Becky: I wish there were more like him out there that could do these kinds of movies. Matthew: We can only aspire too. But I mean, also Pittbull could aspire to, be the Ed Wood but currently he wants to be Alfred Hitchcock. Becky: That is not happening. Matthew: But when I was really thinking about this, I was like, what? You know, in my limited experience with hip-hop, what lyric stand out to me is like the worst things I can think of. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: And this one stood out in my brain, has not left my brain for the past eleven years, and presumably will not be my brain until I die. It is this line. Becky: Okay. Matthew: Because remember, the rest is repetitive. Mommy got an ass like a donkey with a monkey look like King Kong. Welcome to the crib. Now, granted, also, I do need to… Becky: Okay. Matthew: Make a very specific point that when I say mommy, it sounds like I am talking about… Becky: Mom. Matthew: Right. Becky: And actual Mom Matthew: Its spell M-A-M-I. It is Spanish. I am incredibly white. I cannot make this work. I need you to know... Becky: Mommy and Pappy. Matthew: Yes. Exactly. Like he is clearly talking about an attractive young woman. Becky: A lady friend. Matthew: Quite honestly, does not make me feel any better about it because he's dancing. She has an ass like a donkey, which I do. I will give him credit for the association… Becky: That is good little… Matthew: Word played. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: It is like saying like, oh, hurray. I can do this wordplay. But I forgot that this is implying that I would fuck a duck. Becky: Yeah. Yeah, like a donkey got a sweet booty. Yeah…ewe. Matthew: An ass like a donkey and he says monkey. Like a donkey with a monkey. Then why with a monkey? She specifically has an ass like a donkey that has a monkey. Look like King Kong. Now, does he mean the woman? Does he mean the monkey? Or does he mean the donkey? Becky: It is all very offensive. However, you look at it, every part of that is offensive. Like there is not a moment where you go, well, that is very flattering. I appreciate that. No, nothing like. Where does the monkey come in? That is just to make the rhyme, clearly. Matthew: Now, would you be flattered if a man would actually say you have an ass like a donkey. Becky: That is like Sisqo she got dumps like a truck, truck, truck. Mathew: Okay I did forget about that. Becky: The Thong Song, and then there is Wreckx-n-Effect with the rump shaker. There is another one, actually. This is a perfect lead in mine. Matthew: Done, I was like, honestly, that I just want to say for the audience at home, that lyric haunts me to this day and I truly wish that it haunts you as well. Becky: Great. Okay and mine is from 1989. Matthew: That was prior to around the time of conception but definitely not [Inaudible 00:19:48]. Becky: Okay. So mine is from 1989 and I remember this song so I'm going to read the first part of it. I was at the mall sipping on a milkshake, playing the wall, taking a break. Admiring the girls with the bamboo earrings, baby hair and bodies built to swing. That is when I seen her. Name was Tina. Grace and Poise, kind of like a ballerina. I say how you doing? My name's big L don't ask me how I'm living because yo, I'm live in swell. But then again, I am living kind of foul because my girl don't know that I'm out on the prowl. To make a long story short, I got the digits. Calls, one that drives me crazy. Calls her on my car phone and paid her a visit. I was spanking her, thanking her, chewing her, and doing her. Land like a king and sat on sheets of Satin. Well, that is what time it is. You know what is happening? She had a big old booty, and I am doing my duty. I mean, yo, I admit that girls cutie. But Tina was erratic, Earl is my witness with the kind of legs that put stockings out of business. I went home. I kissed my girl on the cheek, but in the back of my mind was this big butt freak. I fat my girl down. I could not hold it in, and that is when I said to her, with a devilish grin. Tina got a big old butt. Matthew: That was a perfect Segway. Becky: Yeah, then it goes on. I know I told you I would be true. But Tina got a big old butt, so I'm leaving you. So this is LL Cool J, big old butt. Matthew: This is LL Cool J? Becky: Oh, my God. He has another one called Backseat in my Jeep, which is another one of my favourites, one of the lyrics said. It is like backseat of my Jeep. We swing an ep. So you could not say episode, he had to shorten it down to ep to sound hard. Matthew: Wow Becky: But yes, the whole song has him bouncing around from girl to girl with big old butts. So then, he moves on to I believe it is Brenda. Who he met at high school. Mm hmm. Matthew: That's, you know, usually where this occurs. Becky: Then he goes to Red Lop, so he started at the mall. Then he goes to the high school. Matthew: Have we confirmed that he too is in high school? Becky: Oh, I don't think so at this time. Matthew: Oh, yikes. Becky: Yeah. Mm hmm. He went to the high school about three o'clock. So clearly, he is not in high school. Matthew: Oh. Becky: To try and catch cutie. Riding my jock. Matthew: That is a popular line. Becky: I have not heard that a long time. She had that kind of booty that I always remember. I would say to my man, stop the jeep. She is only 17, but yo, don't sleep. So again, I have a theme for this series, apparently. Matthew: You sure you do. I like 2008. You like rape song. Becky: Yeah. I don't know what it is. Then he put the big booty on a bearskin rug. Matthew: Wow! Why the fuck does, he have a bearskin rug? Becky: He got satin sheets and a bearskin rug. LL… Matthew: He just fuck so much. Becky: He is on point as far as like 70s porn house. Matthew: Easily. He call Hugh Hefner and I was like, can I fuck as many girls in your house as possible? Becky: Yeah. I like I scope the booty like a big game hunter. I said to the girl, you, you look tired. Let's go get some rest. Relax by the fire. Matthew: Oh, okay. Naked. Becky: Apparently. Matthew: But that is a terrible way to lay naked, because let us all remember that fires only come in one direction. Becky: Yes, so half of you is sweating to death. The other half is freezing and you are on a bearskin rug. So now, half of you is sweating with bear fur stuck to you. Everything about this is wrong. Matthew: That is so erotic. Becky: Then if you move to like the satin she. She just like right off. like nothing about it is good. Yeah. Oh, he also grabbed a pack of bullets and pulled out the steel. So how about that? Matthew: The steel? Becky? How about that for slang for putting a condom on? Matthew: Okay. Becky: Yep. Then he gets back, and he goes to Tina. I am going with Brenda now because she got a big old butt. So he's leaving you. Matthew: Wow! Becky: Later on, he goes to Red Lobster. For shrimp and steak, as it says, it must be the next day because we are at lunchtime now, because this is around the time when the waitresses are on lunch break. You know, he is hanging his bro, then he meet Lisa, one thing leads to another. And he's got to tell Brenda. Matthew: It is time for her to go. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Wait! What is the name of the song? Remind me. Becky: Big ole butt. Matthew: Big ole butt. It is just butt? Becky: This was on the radio. Matthew: Constantly. Becky: Yeah, I remember this. Yeah. Matthew: This is… Becky: Big ole butt. Matthew: Fascinating. Becky: Hmmm. LL Cool J 1989. Matthew: Assinating that is what I am going to call it. Becky: It is assinating. I mean, he just. You know, I out and about. Maybe pulled in the parking lot, and parked his car. Somebody shouted out. I don't care who you are, I pay no attention. I walk inside because Brian had a nine and he was chilling in the ride. I got to be honest, I don't know what the hell that means. Matthew: That is so weird. Becky: Shrimp and Steak was not the only thing cooking. Matthew: What? Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Although this does make you feel better that like consistently hip-hop artist, do you go to Red Lobster after they are fucking because, you know, Beyoncé is like… like, Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Fuck him so good. I don’t remember. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Basically the sex so good that she's like, I take his ass to Red Lobster and now turns out LL Cool J originated the like lets go to lobster. Becky: I feel Beyoncé is lying on this one. Matthew: She would never… Becky: Jay Z…..Red Lobster. Matthew: There are multiple things like really… Becky: For reals, yeah. But this girl Lisa was like, you got a girl and it don't matter. You are looking tastier than a piping hot pizza. Then he of course, I don't know why this was something he thought the ladies are going to enjoy this line. When she walked out the door, I threw my tongue down her throat. Matthew: Ewe. Becky: No. Matthew: Also, that is a terrible verb for it. Like I threw it down her throat. Becky: I don't want you touching my tonsils. The doctor is the old one who should be touching my tonsils and my uvula, and I love that term uvula. Matthew: Even there on him fucking ice when they touch your tonsils. Becky: Yeah. Dentist if necessary. No. And of course, this is the 80s. Late 80s after he has done his business. He grabs his pants and put on his kangol. Matthew: Wow. It is the 80s. Becky: Yeah. Then who did I see? Oh, yow it was Brenda. Yow, she worked at Red Lobster but I did not remember. Matthew: Wow! Becky: Lisa got a big ole butt. Matthew: Wait, he bring Lisa to Red Lobster. Becky: He picked up Lisa a Red Lobster, but forgot Brenda also worked at Red Lobster. Mathew: LL Cool J, what the hell are you doing. Becky: I mean you just getting yourself into a train wreck. Yeah-Big Ole Butt. Matthew: Wow! That is… Becky: I can still hear the whole thing in my head. Brenda got a big ole butt it is awesome. I will listen to it tomorrow at work. Matthew: See what I appreciate. I feel like with very few exceptions, most of the songs that we choose are so lovable. Becky: Oh, I am still going to listen to him. Matthew: In spite of the bad lyrics. Becky: Except for two. The first one we did. Which is that James Arthur piece of trash. Matthew: Yes. Becky: That one, never. Like I will listen to it because I am being forced to. Because somebody wants to see me go what the fuck is? Does anyone not listen to this. Matthew: Is anyone hearing this? Becky: Yeah. Then there is another song. That is right up there for me. That every time it comes on I am like no. There is no way, no how, nope. Matthew: What is it? Becky: Oh, you will find out because it is going to be, I think, on our next episode. Matthew: Oh, this will be interesting. Becky: Yeah, yes. Matthew: Actually. You know what. I realized we mistakenly forgot to do for our last episode. We need to give… Becky: We keep doing this. Matthew: We have to assign a yikes. Becky: We did not assign a yikes. Then we also forgot that we do have a Web site. Matthew: You, know what? People who are bingeing this up. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: You will been binge these episode… Becky: And you will know. It is just whatthelyric.com. I mean, really make sense. Matthew: Exactly. Becky: The yikes factor on this one for me. Oh God. I love it. Matthew: Yeah. That is the thing where it is like honestly. Becky: Hmm. Matthew: Well, it depends. Right. Because it is like infidelity. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: That is not pleasant. But lyrics purely on lyrics alone. I think that is where we have to go with. Becky: It is a little like that holiday song. Baby its cold outside where people like, oh, my God, that is awful. Matthew: Oh, yes. Becky: We should never play it again, but we remove it out of the context of the time that it was done in. And granted, it's never okay to be pushy with a woman at the same time. Is 1940s much like shipoopi with 1950s. It is not like somebody is writing up, redoing shipoopi. Matthew: To make it… Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Hip and also consensual. Becky: Though maybe I will give it a go. Matthew: I hope you do. Becky: I am going to do the female version of it. Matthew: He poufy? Becky: What would that be? Oh, no. Matthew: He is shitty. Becky: Oh that, I am writing it down. He is shitty. Okay I am writing down he is shitty, and then this is my assignment. Okay, it is going to take a while, but I will come up with something. Matthew: Love it. That should be the season finally. Becky: [Inaudible 00:30:35] shitty. Matthew: Debuting. Becky: Oh, if only I knew someone who could get like Peter Griffin to read it. It would be amazing. Yeah, so on the yike scale. For me, I just…sigh, [Inaudible 00:30:56] is a tough one for me because I have seen interviews and he's just Mr. Positive. Matthew: I know. Becky: So you cant really hate him, but God. His lyrics are awful. Matthew: The lyrics are bad. I give it, trying to be unbiased, but I can't. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Like I would say a solid 3, I'm almost out of 4. But the positivity and honestly the rest of it is like huh! Most of this is in Spanish. You just mistakenly said that you wanted to fuck a donkey with a monkey around or on the donkey. Becky: Yeah, Maybe it is just the setting. He did not express what the setting was. Like they are out on a beach, some tropical beach where there is wild animals. Matthew: That is true, and also, I feel like it's one of those things where it's like Pitbull is the Tobias Funke of hip hop. Becky: Really? He is. Matthew: Because he said shit where he is like, oh, I want it. It sounds like he wants to fuck this animal. But really, it's like I just blow myself. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: That is the equivalent. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: I just blew myself. Becky: Yeah, I think you are right. I think he is. Yeah. Matthew: So I will give it a three. Becky: See, I am going four. I feel like he's never really offended, like he's not. There is nothing super offensive about it. Like the donkey, butt thing is probably the worst. But that kind of rolls back on him, I mean. Matthew: He did let these lyrics…..he both… Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Helped write and perform these lyrics. Becky: Yeah. I am going with a four on that one. Matthew: [Inaudible 00:32:30] Becky: LL Cool J on the other hand. He is like right up there. I am going with like one is like the end all be all the yuck factor. Is that what we said before? I probably do it all around. Matthew: No. I forget… honestly I do also forget what the scale is. For the purposes of this podcast and moving forward. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: One is the worst. Five is the least offensive. Becky: I am saying Pitbull is low grade offensive. Matthew: Yes, okay. I would agree. Becky: Yeah. On the scale, he is low grade. LL Cool J In the 80s, full on offensive like that whole song is epically like wow! In every way. I feel like I need a crying game shower after listening that. Also same deal with backseat of my jeep. But I still listen to them. Matthew: You got to love them. Becky: Kind of Religiously. Yeah, so I would give them. Backseat of my jeep, which I really wish I had kind of done too. And big ole butt more like two for me. Matthew: Okay, see I was leaning much more toward four for with this. Becky: Oh! Matthew: I will say I am a product if nothing but of my generation. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: You have to remember, like, boom. Twenty-three. Robin Thicke Blurred Lines come out. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: Suddenly someone being like I am having sex with a lot of these women and in really inconvenient places. But I'm only referring to their butt, I'm referring to their butts as butts and not like she's got a fine ass on her like a donkey. Becky: Yeah. Matthew: So I am kind of like this is heart-warming. He is only calling it a butt. And, you know, it's like he is problematic in different ways, but not as bad as… Becky: Oh. Matthew: You know, raping people, raping and pillaging. Becky: Yeah, he was definitely rapey. Yeah, I'm going… Matthew: I like spread, though. Becky: Apparently so did LL Cool J. Seems to be a common theme in the rap. Matthew: They all like the spread. Becky: Even some of the ladies. Yeah. God, I am trying to think who is the one. There was one Lil Kim who you can't even… doesn't even look like she used to. I was like that's not a Lil Kim. Oh, my God, it is. Yeah, she liked the spread, so to speak. Matthew: Oh, I agree. But I feel like this is product. I feel like we hit some high notes in hip-hop. Becky: Yes. We went with the tried and true. The old school, like one of the godfathers of hip-hop, sort of. More popular hip-hop. Matthew: And one of the parasite's. Becky: Yes. Exactly I mean, God love your Pitbull. Matthew: But is he even making music? I am sure he is. Becky: Guarantee tomorrow we will be like, oh… Matthew: The newest Pitbull song. Becky: He just drop the deuce, so to speak. That is kind of wrapping it up on the hip-hop. Oh, I pull a dad joke. Next time, we are just going rogue and we are picking whatever, the hell we want. And I will tell you, I have a doozy. Matthew: I have no doubts. Oh, I should have thought of No Doubt. Becky: No Matthew: [Inaudible 00:36:06] hole But we will save that for next. Becky: Oh, all right. So next time it is our free for all. And we will talk to you guys then. [Music playing] [End 00:36:35]
