We're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. After last week's NICE LIST it's time to put some coal in some stockings and talk about some tracks that we're about to diss. These are holiday songs are our personal not-favorites. The yuletide earworms, the specters of the December radio, and the songs that we wish we wake up and hear no more a la Scrooge on Christmas morning. Everything from deep cut classics to some contemporary hits that hit us right in the feels. But not the good feels.  Keep in mind, this is all for fun and we wish everyone a very happy holidays.    Email us: popmusicpodcast@gmail.com     Get a Popular Music t-shirt!: https://www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/4134024-classic-pop-music-logo?store_id=205839    Chat pop music with us in our Facebook group!:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/647416295647220/     This week's Spotify Mix:         Find us on all the socials!   twitter.com/popmusicpodcast instagram.com/popmusicpodcast facebook.com/popmusicpodcast   Follow Analise: twitter.com/lalalanalise Follow Omar: twitter.com/omarnajam    Podcast logo by Javier Solórzano https://instagram.com/jav_solo/

We ain’t ‘fraid of no ghosts. That’s right, Popettes. We continue on our spooky musical journey through the month of October with Ray Parker Jr.’s “Ghostbusters” theme! We know this song is LESS on the spook factor, but what IS scary is copyright infringement, which is a big theme of this week’s episode. Also, we talk about why this song’s arrangement gives a ghostly veil of more chords where there aren’t more chords. Who ya gonna call?

She drives me crazy OOH OOOOOOOOH! Is there a limit to the amount of times a person can say how much they love this Fine Young Cannibals song?

  EVERYTHING’S RIGHT, WE’RE TORN. What can we say about Natalie Imbruglia? Evidently, 51 minutes worth of content. But what can you expect? Analise and Omar freaking LOVE this song because they’re children of the 90’s and nothing else matters.

Come my lady, come come my lady. In this week’s episode and our last OFFICIAL episode of our Summer of Nostalgia, Omar and Analise break down the incredible drug trip known as Crazy Town’s “Butterfly.” Omar claims that the song is just as good as anything Allen Ginsberg has done. Analise comes to agree with this, and both decide to come up with a hypothetical film that could accompany the epic chords of this song. Also - did you know that this song is in Nancy Meyers’s “Something’s Gotta Give”? CRAZY. TOWN.     No guilt. Only pleasure.
