Seth and Marc re-record an episode from days past and talk about Aerosmith's Walk This Way. It's pretty confusing, pretty gross, and much more on-the-nose than Steven Tyler was thinking.
It's been a while since the guys discussed a little Kid Rock. Here, they talk about his collaboration with Canada's Monster Truck and his rendering of their modest hit Don't Tell Me How To Live. In true Kid Rock fashion, he takes something decent and makes it abysmal.
Seth and Marc bring Mike back to talk more about ska; specifically the mysterious meaning behind Madness's only number 1 hit House Of Fun. Special Guest: Mike Cosden.
It's been a long time since the guys have talked about Uncle Nuge. And what better song to discuss than Wang Dang Sweet Poontang? Need we say more?
Seth and Marc kick the new year in high gear with Rump Shaker by Wreckx-N-Effect. With a video that was banned from MTV and reviled for its horny lyrics, you'd think there's not much more to say... the guys disagree.
The guys pull some low-hanging fruit with Ironic by Alanis Morissette. Often maligned by "um, actually" language critics everywhere, it can't NOT be talked about at some point.
The guys talk about the Bruno Mars hit That's What I Like. There's no argument that Gene Hernandez is an incredibly talented musician. He also goes a little off the rails in his pleading with this one.
Happy holidays from the guys at Lyrics To Go! To celebrate, Seth and Marc talk about the Mariah Carey hit Oh Santa where, upon seeing him shopping with a current lover, takes it upon herself to beg Kris Kringle to kidnap him and push him down her chimney with increasing intensity.
Seth and Marc call in the big guns for a song that has definitely had its lyrics scrutinized in the past... all the way up to the high courts. Fan favorites Jamie and Kristin join to talk about 2 Live Crew's Me So Horny which is offensive in two ways: it's extremely sexual and it's also pretty stupid. Who is surprised?Special Guests: Jamie Carmichael and Kristin Herman.
Seth and Marc listen to the Canadian nepo-baby Tal Bachman and his song She's So High. This song is basically about how even if your dad was in The Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive, you can still think of yourself as somewhere below pond scum and compare beautiful women to a 19 year old who was burned at the stake.
Marc and Seth try to figure out exactly what's going on with Shakira's hit song She Wolf. Are we dealing with bad lyrics due to poor translation, bad lyric writing, or both? Why didn't the producers help steer her in a better direction? Why are we talking about being in a closet?
Seth and Marc go over the lyrics to country rock phenom Billy Ray Cyrus' recording breaking hit Achy Breaky Heart. Written by Don Von Tress and recorded by the Marcy Brothers, Miley's dad couldn't leave unwell enough alone and started a line dancing revolution with a song that loves naming body parts and doesn't make much sense.
The guys listen to and discuss Stroke 9's minor hit Little Black Backpack. A song that slides down the slope of 90's anger and gets creepier and more controlling the longer it goes. More than likely the most frightening song about a fashion trend in a long while.
Marc and Seth bring Kristin in to talk about the victim-blaming inner city jam What Would You Do? by City High. A song about a guy at a party watching strippers and then wondering why strippers are stripping. Some classic problematic hypocrisy especially poignant in these times.Special Guest: Kristin Herman.
The guys talk about the troublesome lyrics in Paul Revere and The Raiders' hit song Steppin' Out. One part unclear, two parts vaguley threatening, and two parts sounding like a revenge sex song, this is a strange one in many aspects.
Another day, another shitty British boy band... this time in the form of Another Level and their death rattle that was Bomb Diggy. Touting what might be the dumbest half of a chorus in the shows history, this is a real dump.
The guys throw on their cowboy hats and listen to the drivel that is God Made Girls by The Voice quarterfinalist Raelynn. Is it misogynist? Is it saying men are useless without women? Maybe both!
Another day, another song where the narrator descends into madness. Seth and Marc go to therapy with the boys in Saliva to see what Click Click Boom is all about... and it ain't a whole lot of fun.
For episode 250, the guys work on ironing out the anti-male model song I Can't Dance by prog-rock-cum-pop band Genesis. This song was called "provocatively smug" which we couldn't agree more with. AND it sucks.
Seth and Marc take the wild ride provided by Beyonce and Co. in Destiny's Child's hit Cater 2 U. What starts off sweet and lovely turns into a red flag the size of Texas half way through. Can they pull the nose up before the song is over?
