0:02

Give it a chance, Give it a chance.

0:04

Give it a chick. Come morning, Give it a chance. Give

0:06

it a chance, give it a chance, give

0:09

it a chance, come morning, give it a Do you want

0:11

to give it a chance? Give it a chance,

0:13

give it a chance. Just give it

0:14

a boom

0:18

boom boom boom bootot

0:20

dot dot dot dot

0:23

dot dot.

0:24

Is this mombo number five? That's

0:31

pretty good? We should win

0:33

something for that.

0:34

I I oh, yeah, like one hundred

0:36

percent. You name that tune in a second,

0:39

but.

0:39

That was that. You can't do that alone. That's a

0:41

comba. It's a poop poop platter, combo platter.

0:43

Baby.

0:44

That's true. That's true. We should have done that.

0:46

If you didn't do it so good.

0:48

We should go on the newly WHT game. Yeah,

0:53

they still do that. I hope

0:55

so, because I think the structure is really good. You

0:57

know, where did you where's the where's the craziest

1:00

place he made? Whoopee? You know, and they hold

1:02

up the sign and it's like,

1:04

you.

1:04

Know, supposed to be like, oh, you know, Antigua,

1:08

but then she says like, oh my my poo

1:10

poo on top of Shack's

1:12

grave. Ah,

1:17

And definitely we do want to say, because this

1:19

has happened since our last step, we do want to say

1:22

rest in power to Shack. Definitely

1:24

rest power.

1:25

I think you're going to say this has happened before. We talked

1:27

about somebody and then they passed.

1:29

Yo, is shock kind of die? That's

1:32

what I'm worried about, Like if this comes out and

1:34

then like like like it happens

1:36

like at the same time or even you know, whenever,

1:38

like whenever he dies, rest in power is

1:41

Shack gone?

1:42

A die?

1:44

Is Shack gonna die?

1:46

That's for like Pedro and the Lion head Pedro

1:49

in the Lion.

1:50

Pedro and the Lions and

1:52

the Lion. Speaking

1:54

of lions, Sorry man,

1:57

lou Bega conquered the air

2:00

waves. Huh wait.

2:02

So that's that's why I started with Mama number

2:04

five because I think I wanted

2:06

to do that as this episode.

2:08

So I figured that's what was about to happen.

2:10

Yeah, I know your game people don't like a little.

2:12

Behind the curtain. Before we started this, we did

2:14

a test and we were talking and a bunch of other

2:16

songs came out. We just started

2:19

talking about Dragula, but just for

2:21

fun, we love it great. Yeah, no

2:23

chance to look for that on Kevin's Patreon dropping.

2:26

Yeah, Dragula cover.

2:29

Rest in Peace to Rob Zombie

2:32

of course rest in Power.

2:34

Yeah, he can't wait

2:36

to die like he loves like graveyards

2:38

and stuff.

2:39

Shack's Grave is a big hit for him too. It's

2:41

a little pilgrimage for him and his zombie fam every.

2:43

Year, and it's a big grave.

2:46

Huge, it's like ten feet.

2:48

Yeah, it's kind

2:50

of crazy that like Custom

2:52

Caskets. All right, we were going too dark.

2:56

Custom Caskets is playing this week

2:58

at North six.

2:59

Yeah, definitely gonna say Custom

3:01

Caskets split seven

3:03

inch with Shack's Grave. All

3:07

right, Okay, listen, let's

3:09

be serious because we're dealing with a very serious

3:11

and sobering song here. So let's get get

3:14

your shit together and I'll do the same.

3:16

Beautiful Yeah, yeah, pleaseful

3:19

it's true. Mom's

3:22

number five. And don't make

3:24

sure you not to do one, one, two, three,

3:26

four or six?

3:27

All right, I have to go. Yeah, definitely don't do

3:29

Mambo number six by Rob Zombie,

3:32

very different tune number

3:34

six sixty six, all right, number

3:37

six six six, that's the one I want to do, all right,

3:39

So I got to look this up on my streaming

3:42

There it is ready for me to go. Are you ready?

3:44

See on the flip flop? All right, A

3:46

little bit of money come in my life,

3:49

A little bit of hurry come by my side.

3:53

Right off the top.

3:54

I have a question. Is Zippy

3:58

David's related to math you

4:00

David's beause?

4:01

Oh, I get this so much. It's

4:03

crazy how much I get this. My character

4:06

Matthew Davids that one hundred people

4:08

know and we

4:11

rep weekly on

4:13

the pod. Yeah, yeah,

4:15

I like I like bragging like one hundred

4:17

people know of this. It might have been more

4:20

good. It's a good number. No

4:23

unrelated, all right, you never knew it well.

4:26

Musical talent runs in the larger

4:29

David's tribe, because

4:31

Zippy's one of the three lyricists

4:35

on this song. Three lyricists,

4:37

mm hmm. And I just want to just before we get

4:40

into anything else, I just want to point out that

4:42

this song was the product

4:44

of twenty four

4:47

I mean kind of one, two, three, four, five six.

4:49

Then the three lyricist makes nine, ten,

4:51

eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,

4:54

seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty twenty one, twenty

4:56

two, twenty three, twenty four, twenty five, twenty

4:58

five people credited

5:01

credited with Malbo number five.

5:03

Do you know why? Is because I think they're listing all the

5:05

people from the original sample. Oh

5:07

well, that's actually cool. So

5:11

I think it's a mix, though I think it's probably still a lot

5:13

of people in the Lubaga version. But

5:15

I think because it's it's originally like a

5:18

jazz instrumental.

5:21

See my ignorant ask to know that.

5:23

And now I just put you on your ass.

5:25

My ignorant, as what's crazy?

5:28

I just look. I did a quick Wikipedia

5:31

search and Loubaga. Where do

5:33

you think he's from?

5:35

Hmm, this is going to be

5:37

surprising. I guess right. Let's say, is he from

5:40

like Germany? Yes? Do

5:43

that?

5:43

Yeah?

5:43

Okay, because I'm looking at so

5:46

this is this is why the

5:48

brass credit is for Aksel

5:50

Kuhn k you with a hn.

5:54

Then the harmonica and

5:57

harpist is Christopher with

5:59

an f koax. Klaus

6:02

Reichstaller is another brass

6:04

player, so I figured,

6:07

And then there's Eric Ouher. It is really

6:09

like the guitarist is go ar

6:11

b On,

6:14

Teyner, Bettinger, Mattias Borst,

6:17

Steffan Shroop, and then of course

6:19

Zippy David's.

6:20

You got all this from that, but

6:22

I didn't see that. But I've in my whole

6:24

life have been like, how is this guy

6:27

that's like Mama Nova

6:31

is from Germany? I think that's incredible.

6:33

It's incredible. It's really incredible. And also,

6:36

as a person who has done a

6:39

lot of touring.

6:40

In Germany, weirdly

6:43

knowing.

6:43

This now it makes like it's

6:46

it's kind of actually like I'm having like the usual

6:48

suspects experience. It makes so

6:51

much sense to me because

6:53

there's this kind of like filtration of

6:56

there's a lot of like kind

6:58

of like, well, you know, music

7:00

is a global language and there's

7:03

like a lot of there's definitely

7:05

stylistic things that happen I've noticed in

7:07

Germany that skew towards like dance

7:10

or hip hop.

7:10

Oh yeah, yeah.

7:11

But I'm like, oh, this is wild

7:14

because it's also still filtered through a very

7:16

like German sensibility. Sure,

7:19

and there's something in retrospect now I'm like,

7:21

oh, that's what's going on here.

7:22

It's like, what's a.

7:23

Little off about it is actually that

7:25

it's being fed through this

7:27

like kind of eastern central Eastern

7:30

European sensibility of like this

7:32

is what a mambo would sound like in the hands of Ein

7:34

Berliner.

7:36

But he it seems that he's got a pretty crazy

7:38

life. So he grew up in Germany and

7:41

then when he was six, for a couple

7:43

of years they lived in Italy,

7:46

and then he lived back then it was

7:48

back in Munich where he was

7:50

in primary school. As a teenager, he just

7:52

traveled to Miami, Florida, where

7:54

he found inspiration for the hit single Mambo

7:56

number five, Welcome to Miami. He

7:59

also lived in Uganda for six months.

8:02

Global citizen.

8:03

Yeah, so his mom is from Sicily and his dad

8:05

is Ugandan, and he grew up in Germany.

8:07

Like, he lived in Germany most of his life. A crazy

8:10

little story about our buddy.

8:11

Lou didn't know any of that. So his mom

8:14

was Sicilian and his dad maybe

8:17

is hopefully we're not in a rest

8:19

in peace situation there. His mom is

8:21

Sicilian, dad is Ugandan. Then they

8:23

but they were living in Germany, in Munich.

8:26

Yeah, most of their most of his life, and

8:28

then they they you know, he they were in

8:30

a little they were in Italy for a little while, then back

8:32

to Munich and then yeah, he's been he's

8:35

he's worldwide so he's got to see a lot of women

8:37

and memorize a lot of names.

8:40

But that's true, that's true.

8:42

I have a question about one more biographically

8:44

I've answered. Do we know how

8:47

the family almost started to play the song really

8:49

loudly? Do we know how the mom and dad met?

8:54

I think they were always

8:56

in each other's life a little bit. Wow,

9:00

No, I don't know. Sorry,

9:03

that was beautiful.

9:04

I think they were always in

9:06

each other's life a little bit.

9:08

That is so good. Yeah, the

9:10

father said flirting is just like a sport,

9:13

and the mother said, please

9:15

set in the trumpet.

9:19

I was the first second I was authentically like, is

9:21

that on the Wikipedia page that his dad

9:23

gave him? That line? Son, flirting

9:26

is just like a sport. I could

9:28

do a lyrical thing if you want, I

9:31

definitely. I don't know. This is an interesting We

9:34

could share some of our methodology with the chancers.

9:38

I always read the lyrics while we

9:40

listen. That's like a default setting for

9:42

me for some reason. And

9:46

you know, I think that there's some really wild

9:49

stuff happening here. Actually, Like,

9:54

if I really encourage you, the next time

9:56

you sit down, look all right off the top

9:59

Mambo number five not really something that's inviting

10:02

a kind of like undergraduate

10:04

you know, music, class

10:07

lyrical eggs. Jesus, we're not supposed to

10:09

be like you're just supposed to give over to its.

10:10

Charms, and so the throwback

10:13

of it. Yeah, and also.

10:15

It's an earworm or as they would as Louis

10:17

might say, an earworm and

10:21

in Munchen and so you

10:24

know, I am just like I'm wondering

10:26

though what he says here in the beginning. I

10:29

just feel like there's a lot of the setup is kind of

10:31

wild. So what can I do? I really

10:33

beg you my Lord to me? Flirting

10:37

is just like a sport. There's

10:39

something in here that it's like anything fly,

10:42

it's all good. Let me dump

10:44

it. What's going on

10:46

there? Let you dump And also

10:48

like this the thing about praying

10:51

for help, because flirting is just

10:53

like a sport. Yeah, this

10:55

is really where I'm like, oh right, this dude's

10:59

a German dude writing

11:01

English lyrics.

11:02

So can I do it? I really beg

11:05

you my Lord to me? Flirting is

11:07

just like a sport.

11:08

That was almost like the brand. Yeah,

11:11

Yakov smearnoff a little bit too. That

11:13

is good.

11:14

I have to I

11:17

can I do like I have to take

11:19

to keep my German and my Russian enough for mixing.

11:21

It's hard, dude, it's hard.

11:23

It's a hard rain's going to fall. But I do

11:25

feel like I wonder

11:28

what he means when he says anything

11:30

fly, it's all good, let

11:33

me dump it. Does

11:35

he mean, like, is he fast forwarding

11:37

to the end of the relationship where he wants

11:40

to He's like, oh wow, I need

11:42

to hit it and then I need to dump

11:44

it.

11:45

Anything fly. To me, flirting is

11:47

just like a sport, right, and yeah, fly it's

11:49

all good. Let me dump it.

11:52

It's like a sport. Yeah, anything anything fly right,

11:55

anything, I'll do anything. It's all good. And then let

11:57

me dump it. And like please said in

11:59

the trumpet it, I don't know what he means

12:01

by that, but maybe it move move on

12:04

to the next one.

12:05

Yeah, I think Trumpet's one of the names.

12:07

And it's a trumpet trumpet in sport. I

12:09

don't really put together that much, but maybe.

12:14

When Diaz, who's the closer for the current

12:16

closer for the New York Mets, when he enters the game,

12:19

there is a famous trumpet solo

12:21

that gets played, So maybe there's a pre cog situation.

12:23

This is minority report pre cog. He

12:26

saw that, but he was also

12:28

thinking about Oh no.

12:29

I thought they let the pre cogs go at the end.

12:32

Well they did, but spoilers, minority

12:34

reports, spoiler.

12:35

One of them became Louis b Global

12:38

sit And so I

12:40

think the thing, I think,

12:44

the thing that we also need to know is it's not capitalized.

12:47

But maybe when he says, please send in the trumpet. Of course

12:49

with the arrangement, that's when we get hit with

12:52

the trumpet.

12:53

But also maybe.

12:55

Maybe the trump that's the name, like a nickname,

12:58

one of the little.

13:00

Bits, one of his

13:02

little bits.

13:04

Yeah, like maybe like Rita's

13:06

the trumpet.

13:07

Even please set in the trumpet, right

13:11

like that even feels a little German too. Please

13:13

set it an easy trump.

13:15

I will say on my streaming platform of

13:17

choice, it does say please send in the

13:19

trumpet.

13:20

Oh okay, that's better. Yeah, yeah, I'm looking at genius,

13:22

which I guess isn't that much of a genius. Shots

13:25

fired, Shots fired. I

13:35

like Pama and

13:37

Rita and then Zach continue, you know

13:39

what, are getting sweet out.

13:41

I will just say I must stay

13:44

deep because talk is cheap. N

13:47

I like Angela Pamela, Sandra and

13:49

Rita, and as I continue,

13:52

you know, they're getting sweeter. So

13:54

that's cool because he's like he's finding

13:57

more and more sweetness as he plows

13:59

through these little bits. But

14:03

but that's kind of fucked in

14:06

a reverse way, Like Angela

14:08

is cool, but Pamela is even cooler,

14:10

but Sandra's even cooler, and

14:12

read is even cooler. And then if I go into the chorus,

14:15

first of all, Angela is nowhere to be found, Pamela

14:18

is nowhere to be found. Sandra

14:21

comes after Monica. Wait,

14:23

Sandra comes after readers. All right, So Sandra is

14:26

sweeter, Mary's even sweeter than

14:28

Sandra, Jessic

14:30

is even sweeter than Mary, and

14:33

you, the listener are

14:35

sweetest of all. Robert

14:38

Duval Anyway,

14:44

I guess what I'm trying to say is these are chaotic

14:46

lyrics, even for a

14:48

pop confection. I'm finding them chaotic.

14:51

Yeah, no, I agree, And but

14:54

I will say we haven't even like kind of said

14:56

this, like say it, do you how do you

14:58

feel about this song? Like you finished

15:00

the song, how do you feel like

15:02

while you were listening to it? I can't really tell if

15:04

you if you feel favorable towards it based

15:07

on compared to other other tracks

15:09

we've done, like where does this? Where

15:11

does this fall? For you?

15:13

It's fine. I don't have like strong

15:16

to be a cobby totally honest with you. Yeah,

15:19

first of all, I mean about

15:22

anything. I can be totally honest with you about like

15:24

anything.

15:25

Dude, I do that bodies, I'll

15:28

keep that secret.

15:31

I don't have strong feelings about this song any of

15:33

the direction and listening back to it. What's

15:35

kind of nice is to be like, I

15:38

think this is a perfectly rated cultural

15:40

phenomenon, is it. Look I've

15:43

never heard this played somewhere by somebody.

15:45

I've never had somebody be like, yo, dude, have you

15:47

heard this and then like play it

15:49

for me. I've never heard somebody passionately

15:52

defend it. I've never heard anybody be like, yo,

15:54

you know what's actually like a really there's

15:57

like a lot going on in that you haven't like

15:59

there areeople who would say that about like Nickelback

16:01

or Creed.

16:02

Or Spice Girls. You know, there's like,

16:05

you know, there's times that there's a song like telling

16:08

giving you everything all

16:10

the joy, like songs like that where

16:12

I'm like, I will break that down

16:14

and talk about how much I like those verses and

16:16

the whole song. There's like an instrumental

16:19

break like this isn't you're

16:21

right, this is not one of those like guilty

16:23

pleasure. You know what,

16:25

if you really listen, it's not

16:27

like one of those. It's not.

16:30

No, And it also feels like there's

16:32

something to be said. And I don't

16:34

know if we've really had one of these before. There's something

16:36

to be said to me, for

16:38

like, if you put this song on

16:41

in any social like

16:43

large social gathering, right like

16:45

if like I don't know, if you

16:47

if this came on during like an

16:49

inning break in a baseball

16:51

game, people would just like bop around,

16:54

like do a little stupid dance in their seats.

16:57

If you were at at gera or if you

16:59

were at like a bar mitzvah, or if you're

17:01

like.

17:01

Thank you for the thank you then accents,

17:04

Yeah, yeah, you are. You have better accents

17:06

than me. Well, I don't know if that's If

17:09

there's a contest after this episode, right

17:11

now, you're you're winning.

17:12

Wow. And and also please put in the comment

17:14

section, whose accents do

17:16

you find the most appealing and closest

17:19

to the source materials?

17:22

But no at the end of the day, push comes to shove. If you

17:24

put this on at or if you put it on

17:26

at a Catholic wedding,

17:35

or if you put it on the bar mitzvah or any

17:37

kind of or if you just like put it on, like like if six

17:39

people just materialize, like let's say, like Monica,

17:41

Rita, Erica, Tina, Sandra, Mary

17:44

and Jessica all materialized in my

17:46

grip right now, right, which will be

17:48

sweet time six for ok D. But

17:51

if they all want to realize not

17:53

a bad Monday afternoon.

What That's kind of cool. He's caught.

18:04

Sorry, So what I mean is dat all

18:06

18:08

would be great. So when

18:10

this was on, I was listening to it, I was moving

18:12

around to But also I just by the way you

18:14

just led me to this.

18:15

You can, you can.

18:16

You can feed up man of fish. But if teach

him to fish, you'll.

18:19

Fish your water, your

18:22

water, the water, the fish.

18:25

He's coming out right up top and he's

18:27

saying like I don't need all

18:29

of it.

18:30

I can't handle all of it.

18:33

No, I can't handle all of Monica,

18:35

all of Erica, all of Rita.

18:38

Tina can't marry so much

18:41

to handle, but I could handle.

18:42

A little bit, a little bit. The

18:45

word I.

18:45

Entitled for this song was mambo number five.

18:48

Just this coach Scotch est

18:51

in parent.

18:52

This is reminding me of something, and I figured out what

18:54

it is. Okay, I want to performing

18:56

18:59

19:25

three jolly good sports. But cream

19:27

of the crop, tip of the top is

19:29

Mary Poppins, and there we

19:31

stop. Wow.

19:33

First of all, and I encourage

19:35

you at home chancers, because you are if you're

19:37

at home, if you're in the car, if you're on the bus,

19:40

if you're with Monica, A little round of applause.

19:43

Wow, yeah, I read that whole thing,

19:45

but you also read it.

19:47

Yeah, if you I don't know if you can see,

19:49

I don't know if you but if you are locked in.

19:51

If you know, but I just read that off the dome.

19:54

That's really fine. The slame off

19:57

the dome. I just read that.

19:59

Yeah, wow, great

20:01

pull. So you thought that as you were listening

20:03

this time through, you were like, what does this remind me of? That's

20:06

incredible. What a kaleidoscopic

20:08

view into your brain. That's awesome. Yeah.

20:11

I knew it was like there was something that was like

20:13

with all these names, it's like it's like bringing

20:15

up something and it's such a it's a small

20:17

part in Mary Poppins that Bert just goes off

20:20

with the penguins. You knew what it was like.

20:22

But when you when it started to sort of percolate in your

20:24

brain, you were like, that's what it is.

20:26

Well, Dick van Dyke has that really great

20:28

slash going back to accents.

20:31

Yeah, bad British accent. Yeah, so like

20:33

you know, like, so I couldn't like that

20:36

was what was clinching it. It was I think maybe it was

20:38

just all the amalgamation of talking about accents

20:40

and talking about the names so good that

20:42

it just sort of like and I don't know, that

20:44

just came popped into my brain.

20:46

I think we have some research to do to find out if that was

20:48

in the in the mix for

20:51

Louis Zippy and sorry, who's

20:53

the third lyricist?

20:54

I'll reach out to the German consulate.

20:56

Yeah, yeah, they'll know third

20:58

lyricist was by the way. Oh

21:01

no, they give compositions, so it might just

21:03

been Louis Bega and Zippy David's for lyrics.

21:05

So maybe I.

21:06

Think Zippy and Louis

21:09

did this.

21:10

I think Zippy might be like centrally involved.

21:12

He wasn't a producer though. That was Yen's

21:15

Jonas Arn Gore de

21:18

Fact and Frank Leo.

21:21

And does it say what album this is off of, because I'm about

21:23

to tell you.

21:24

I think it's off a little bit of mambo.

21:27

That's right. And you know what a second album

21:29

is called.

21:30

A lot more of mambo.

21:31

Nope, Ladies and Gentlemen. That's

21:35

it. It's called Ladies and gentlemen. And

21:38

that's how he starts his song.

21:41

Domin Jaron Wait,

21:43

Ladies and gentlemen. I don't think. Look,

21:46

I gotta be honest with you. I'm

21:48

not ashamed to admit this. I didn't know

21:51

any Louis Bega record

21:54

after this one, or even song did

21:56

he didn't. He has a song called Buena Makarena.

22:00

Whoa he does?

22:01

He has a song called Scatman John. Well,

22:03

you did a record with Scatman, John? Is that like, I'm

22:05

the scat Man? Is that that? Oh?

22:07

I must know? Yeah, it must be.

22:09

We're veering if Scatman and hat

22:11

Man, which is Scatman and Louis Bega,

22:14

if we're that's making me veer into

22:16

like what's

22:19

our chocolate rain homies name Taison

22:21

Day territorism. I started to get a little

22:23

sad, Like, once I see Scatman and hat

22:25

Man, there's something about that that makes me a little worried.

22:27

I start to feel a little sad.

22:29

I didn't realize he his seven albums, including

22:31

one that came out in twenty twenty one called Nineties

22:34

Cruiser.

22:34

Yeah, it's called It's and it's like a strong anti

22:37

vax vibe on that one.

22:40

Sorry, it's not true.

22:41

It might be true.

22:42

I don't know. Also, sometimes if I look

22:44

at the pictures of his album covers, quickly it

22:46

looks like Latter Day Perry Farrell.

22:50

Like I can't say if I don't see the face, but just the hat

22:52

and like the kind of desk he's wearing. I'm like, is

22:54

that a Jane's Addiction record? Yeah,

22:57

there are records up to twenty twenty one, but like Mombo

23:00

number five, so this was a number three single

23:03

in the United States.

23:04

Should we change the podcast and just do a different

23:07

lou Bega song from these deep cut albums

23:09

every single episode today? No,

23:11

okay, for the next maybe this is a.

23:13

Series for the next month, we have

23:15

Louis Bega Month. That would actually be a great

23:18

thing for whatever.

23:20

Just to tag the end of an episode with another Vega

23:22

song to check out.

23:23

Yeah, and also I feel like we could pick

23:25

an artist and do like

23:28

a multi like a like a

23:30

chances if you're interested in that, if you'd like to hear like.

23:33

Four Yeah, reach

23:35

out to the German consulate.

23:36

Reach out to the German cons ask if

23:38

it's okay, ask for permission.

23:41

These are tenuous times. We don't want to step

23:43

anywhere in the wrong direction. I don't

23:45

know.

23:46

I have to tell you this that I We've

23:48

had a lot of artists. I have to if I can

23:50

be honest.

23:51

Yeah, yeah, I've got bodies who

23:54

do kill. Sorry go.

23:57

So we've done a lot of artists.

24:00

I think I'm more curious about

24:02

another lou Bega song

24:05

than any other artists, like other

24:07

material, because what could another

24:09

song even sound like? This one is so unique,

24:12

it's so driven by the sample, and

24:14

it's so in this like what I can't even imagine

24:17

unless it's just all this sort

24:19

of This is also sort of part

24:21

of the swing, Yes, that swing comeback?

24:24

Right, we haven't talked about that, right, Yeah, it was.

24:25

Right, it was ninety nine. It was the tail end

24:27

of whatever that Yeah, what was that movie ninety

24:30

six or something ninety seven?

24:32

Yeah, But then there was also songs right

24:34

like and I think everything was a little influenced, like

24:36

Skat came back, like oh oh

24:39

the cherry Pop and Daddy Squirrelnut

24:41

Zippers cherry Yeah, yeah,

24:43

squirrel nuts Zippers. Yeah, what a name?

24:46

Cherry pop and Daddy's amaze me uncomfortable,

24:48

yes, but I'm saying out loud it was, but squirrel

24:50

Nut Zippers was arguably much better

24:52

name when you're coming from that, yeah, yeah,

24:54

And then there was also like yeah

24:56

swing, oh the gap commercial.

24:58

Yeah, oh my god. And I also know, like

25:01

I I that's when I'm a college student

25:03

nineteen ninety seven to two thousand and one, people

25:05

would go swing dancing. Yeah,

25:08

like that was a thing and that you know, cool,

25:10

It seems like it was fun, people enjoy themselves. I

25:12

never attended one of those, but that

25:15

was like an activity that like young, Yeah,

25:17

like that was like a thing that wasn't weird for a bunch of

25:19

like people in their early twenties

25:21

to be at some club in

25:23

Manhattan like swing dancing.

25:26

So I do think you're right, this is I didn't kind of place

25:28

that this is kind of in that timeline and certainly in

25:30

that world. I think it's funny that we're

25:32

like, I can't even imagine what another

25:35

Louis Begas song would sound like, and

25:37

it's like all we'd literally have

25:39

to do is mess play on

25:42

one of the four hundred options

25:44

currently staring at me. But I'm never

25:46

gonna know. The

25:58

other thing is I think why you're having that experience

26:00

with this particular artist. I'm

26:03

thinking about maybe

26:06

with the exception of like some of the novelty stuff

26:08

we've done, like one eight seven seven Cars for Kids.

26:11

Even Wright said Fred. They

26:14

had Don't Talk Just Kiss, which was like, maybe

26:16

not a top ten single, but I bet that was a

26:18

top forty single. That was

26:20

probably like a lower thirty, you know, like

26:22

that was a hit. It was on MTV.

26:26

Certainly, the one hit wonder always gets

26:28

an attempt at a second.

26:29

One, right, So that makes me wonder if

26:31

I just missed his completely

26:33

because that song was too big for them to not try

26:35

to capitalize on a second song.

26:39

But I have no cultural recollection

26:41

whatsoever of a second movie. And he was nominated

26:43

for a fucking Grammy for this song.

26:46

I think when you when you swing, swing

26:48

in such a stylistic way,

26:51

you know, it gets the attention of the academy.

26:53

Mmmm.

26:55

It's like it's like I've heard

26:57

said from people I know who are

27:00

in the mix in the bids.

27:03

Yeah, you're really your whole body shutter

27:05

to say it.

27:06

No, that's like, no one

27:08

sees this. I don't think, do you guys see

27:10

this yet? No, we don't show this to people.

27:12

Yeah, little clip, I'm

27:15

saying, release them, release her email.

27:16

Release the tapes, release her emails,

27:19

take the case files and these VIDs,

27:21

these VIDs gotta be up there, no, I

27:24

think, and by her emails of course, I

27:26

mean Candice Cameron.

27:29

I want to see I want to

27:31

set.

27:33

Emails. No, I was

27:35

going to say, it's often said that the awards

27:37

are given out not for the best acting,

27:39

but for the most acting, right,

27:43

you know what I'm saying. So I think

27:45

in this case, you know,

27:47

it could be I don't know, maybe it's like.

27:49

This is this is showing

27:51

out. He was showing out.

27:53

It's mad safe, oh yo, it's there's nothing

27:55

dangerous about this ship. Dude, I never seen I've

27:57

never been afraid of Louis Bega.

28:00

Yeah for a fucking second, dude, And I feel

28:02

that way now, like he can't fucking scare me.

28:05

Oh look, punj he

28:09

even though you know, it's interesting because like when

28:12

I first was thinking of this song, I

28:14

was like, does it hold up? Is he gonna

28:16

get is he gonna get weird? Because it's a

28:18

song about like I need a little bit of these

28:20

girls. I mean it's a little weird. Yeah

28:22

yeah, but like it's not crazy weird.

28:25

Yeah, it could be crazy weird. Yeah

28:27

yeah, of this era too, like

28:29

you could get away with so much. And I actually

28:32

think like it's it's it's right on the line.

28:34

It's also just like I think

28:36

this still plays at block parties.

28:38

That's what I mean. That's what I was saying. That's what I meant

28:40

in all seriousness earlier. Is that I

28:42

that's that's a mark of something that definitely

28:45

for me is squarely in the chance category.

28:49

Like it's become like YMCA

28:51

or something or whatever. It's become like

28:53

one of those songs that it's just like, yeah,

28:55

anyone, if you have this on somewhere

28:59

where there's a lot ar group of people doing so, you

29:02

only hear it there. That's the only place I

29:04

don't hear it. That's totally true. You will

29:06

hear it, like if they're trying to

29:09

kill time when yeah, I keep thinking of baseball

29:11

for some reason, when like the manager's

29:13

coming out to talk to the relief pitcher or

29:15

something.

29:16

Yeah, they're like, don't don't

29:19

exactly, and they'll show people. I'm

29:21

like, but I'm picturing like me getting

29:23

on my commute to work. I'm like sitting

29:26

on the Jay train and

29:28

I'm putting choosing to put

29:30

on Mamo number when it's not on a playlist.

29:33

I'm choosing Mamo number five, and I'm

29:35

just like by myself with my headphones do

29:38

that's actually, will you do that on your way home

29:40

today? I think I will. I think I have to know.

29:42

I want to know what it feels like. I

29:44

want to know I love it, like

29:46

yeah, yeah, but I wait.

29:49

One other thing I want to say that real quick, is that when

29:51

I was in college, maybe

29:53

like after I think it was after college, like I

29:56

was going to bars with a friend, and

29:59

you know, there was this thing that a couple

30:01

of years later mulaney touched upon,

30:03

which was like going to a bar and playing a song

30:06

like twenty times. Yes, it's

30:08

like something that people did, right, But like he told

30:10

that story, I forget what even what the song was.

30:12

I can't kind of can't remember what it was. But before

30:15

that had before that had come out, we had done

30:17

that with this song we

30:19

put We went to a bar in green

30:21

Point and like this like old this

30:23

like old polish, like dive bar. Yeah,

30:26

and we put on mom but number five like twenty

30:29

times, and we were just like enjoying, like

30:31

looking around seeing people's faces. It

30:34

just played over and over again. After like six,

30:36

the bartender just came off and like turned it off

30:38

and like put on his own music. It was like

30:40

a really fun. It was just like a nice like yeah,

30:42

it's like a rite of passage to do that totally

30:44

such and it's such a good song for it too,

30:47

because for maybe like two times it will slip through

30:49

because it sounds like it's just it's it's the

30:51

still going. Yeah. By the fifth time,

30:53

you're like, Okay.

30:54

This is on purpose and I cannot abide

30:56

it any further. I feel like, also,

30:59

I'm not I really mean this, this

31:01

could be something in our research further. You

31:03

know how there's been like certain military

31:06

operations that were like you

31:09

know where the US government or a different government is

31:11

like using songs to torture political

31:14

prisoners or whatever. I

31:16

really genuinely think that there was

31:19

some story where this was one of the ones they like play

31:21

it like ear splitting volume and

31:23

just like loop it for like seven hours

31:26

or something like that. I definitely

31:28

know that was the thing in the late eighties with

31:31

other songs, like there was like Guns and Rows something

31:33

like that that they came Yeah,

31:36

I had to do with like something with Panama and

31:38

Uel Noriega whatever that was. They like were

31:40

like playing that so loud that like,

31:43

which is really crazy to actually

31:45

consider. But I think Mombo number

31:47

five was one of those things to at some point, which

31:49

is funny because it really that

31:51

actually is a fascinating thing, and you're what you're talking

31:54

about kind of speaks to it where something

31:56

that is this is like a benign

31:58

and pleasant noise to

32:00

be happening in the background somewhere, but

32:03

that in when you

32:05

like string it together that way,

32:08

it can become literally tortuous,

32:11

like there's an experience of it being like this needs to

32:13

stop right now. Yes,

32:16

and its insistence might be part of that. I just

32:18

before, on our way down as we land

32:20

the plane, I think you're right. I

32:23

actually don't think, especially given the topicality.

32:25

I don't think it's It's

32:28

not like a quote problematic

32:30

lyric in a way in ways it could be, or certainly

32:33

not in like capital letter ways. It

32:35

is a little bit more like garbled nonsensical

32:38

verse lyrics, though, like the I just want

32:40

to walk through the first verse. He just counts to five, one,

32:43

two, three, four, five or five. Everybody

32:45

in the car, come on, let's ride. That's fine

32:47

to the liquor store around the corner. The boys

32:49

say they want some gin and juice, giving a shout

32:52

out to the ubiquitous snoop nineties

32:54

hip hop West Coast, the whole thing. But I

32:56

really don't want to you're

32:58

bust like I have last

33:00

week. I am officially now where there's the

33:02

first lyric. I don't understand what that means. I

33:04

don't know.

33:05

Is that a phrase I've been maybe

33:08

like a busting his gut or

33:10

maybe he doesn't want to hangover.

33:12

Maybe or maybe he's gonna Maybe it's like a beer

33:14

bust, like it's prohibition.

33:16

It's prohibition. Oh yeah,

33:19

because it is a throwback.

33:20

I don't want to go to the liquor store. I don't want

33:22

any gingers. I don't want a beer bust. I had that last

33:24

week. Yeah,

33:26

and then I must stay deep because

33:28

talk is cheap. I like Angela,

33:31

Pamela, Sandra and Rita.

33:33

Wait wait, I must go deep because like

33:36

I must stay deep, stay deep. Talk

33:39

is cheap.

33:41

I like Angela.

33:44

I love someone being like hard like talk is cheap.

33:46

But anyway, I like girls.

33:51

That you like that, because that's actually

33:54

that could live in a character

33:56

that you do. The way you just did that, it was instantly

33:58

embodied like the kind

34:00

of like yeah, like kind of like

34:03

the sharpness, but then also kind

34:05

of like but anyway, I must.

34:07

Stay deep eight cheap,

34:11

I like computers, right, yeah, exactly.

34:14

It's funny because recently this is so

34:16

anyway, we're not giving it a

34:18

chance on the basis of its lyrics. Its lyrics also aren't

34:20

like necessarily offensive. They're more like I'm like bemused

34:23

by them. They're like, I know, you know what this you

34:25

know what else?

34:26

This is? This is Taco Putting on the Rits totally.

34:29

If you're blue and you don't know what, yeah,

34:32

like it's it is, it is. It's

34:34

like that's that did this first? Too? Like a sort

34:37

of intentional throwback, like an eighties throwback.

34:39

Yes, in the past, but like I

34:42

might give Taco Putting on the Rits more credit,

34:45

although that's like a cover I guess in some

34:47

ways. But then like put through the eighties filed

34:49

you know the eighties, Yeah, reimagining. Yeah, but this

34:52

is kind of that. But then I think this does

34:54

take it farther because I think the original

34:56

is probably an instrumental and he added all this, did.

34:58

You know it was a sample based song?

35:01

I had no idea. I didn't know the

35:03

original sample at all.

35:04

I think if if, if it was on a multiple

35:07

choice I definitely would have answered correctly that it that

35:09

it's like based on a sample, because I think

35:12

what else would it be? Right?

35:13

Yeah, I mean it's not I get

35:16

that, I get that, I get, but

35:18

I guess I didn't choice. You know, I

35:20

got twenty five chance even if I know nothing.

35:23

Well, it's reads PILM and it's a phone of friends.

35:26

That I'd have found you because you knew because

35:28

I'm I mean, look, we're coming

35:30

near what is usually we're chancey a clock.

35:33

So is there anything you feel like we haven't touched

35:35

on or do you feel like we've been? I think

35:37

ultimately for me, it's like it's

35:39

got a skew chance because

35:42

there's nothing about it that's like

35:45

for what it is. It's

35:47

exactly what it's supposed to be. It's

35:50

not trying to be anything else, and

35:52

it executes the mission ably,

35:55

and it also it's fun and

35:57

funny. H And also it seems

35:59

like this dude is not taking himself seriously

36:02

at all, which may be its best best

36:06

asset.

36:07

I think our biggest critique is lyrics. And

36:09

even so, when when I will

36:11

hear this song at a you know, a

36:13

swim party or.

36:14

Something, yeah about me?

36:15

Yeah, yeah, I will not.

36:18

I will it still won't affect me. I will

36:20

still enjoy it the same amount that I did.

36:22

I will sit there at the swim party completely impassive

36:24

and show no fucking feeling when this song

36:27

comes on. Dude, I'm unaffected.

36:29

I like it more or less. I

36:31

like Angelo, I like I like girls.

36:35

Honestly, Angela is cool, but she's not even top

36:37

ten. Sweetness Mary Poppins'

36:39

is number one. Yeah, yeah, number one sweetest.

36:42

And at the end of the day, Push comes to shove, Louis Begas

36:44

shouts for having music into twenty twenty one.

36:46

Sorry about the anti vax stuff, and I also sorry to

36:48

hear that you passed as a result. So

36:50

all, at the end of this sep, we do want to say rest

36:53

in power to Louis Begat

36:55

knows as he's life, live, in

36:57

power, live and piss And oh.

36:59

My gosh, I just realized his birth name is David

37:02

the Bega,

37:05

that Balla Mezzi Ballamesi,

37:07

so his middle name is Libga, so he went

37:09

by lou Bega. Love it Bega.

37:13

Creativity bounds And also

37:16

I think at the very at the end of the

37:18

day, when Push comes to shove, what

37:20

I'd love to hear next is Scatman

37:23

and hat Man. So that may have to be

37:25

okay because Scatman's his own

37:27

app,

37:31

but it makes sense that they would have been like, we should

37:33

team up. It's like when Daredevil's in a Spider

37:36

Man comic?

37:36

Can you do that? Can you do the lou Bega song? That

37:38

don't don.

37:50

Okay?

37:50

Right?

37:50

Greg?

37:51

If it's if it's that's what it is, If that's

37:53

what it is. If that's what it is, kes,

37:55

If that's what it is, you give me

37:58

five cheeze, I'll get me five thousand.

38:01

You give me back five Yeah, I'll get five.

38:04

Yeah, I get five back, So you get forty nine

38:06

ninety five? What was it?

38:08

It was something like that you were getting. I think

38:10

you're gett money from my heart is really what I think

38:12

was going in there.

38:13

Yeah, I think I'm getting five gs. Then you're getting

38:15

five that's the contract. I gotta go back

38:17

and listen.

38:17

All right, Well, chancers, hope

38:20

you enjoyed that EP. But if you

38:22

didn't, I don't know. We did the best

38:24

we could. Doggie Pushcubs

38:26

to Shelf. You was conceived in love?

38:28

What I like? Girls?

38:31

Just give it
