Ep 123: "I Saw A Tiger" by Joe Exotic (the Tiger King)

The Songtopsy Report ·

2020/04/28

We're back and more socially distanced than ever! And what better time than now to dissect the music of Joe "Tiger King" Exotic, the borderline mythical zookeeper and convicted felon who was the subject of a Netflix documentary that captured the attention of the world. His music however (or rather *not* his music) got very little attention, and this week we break down how exactly his anthem "I saw a Tiger" came into existence and who actually sang it (spoiler; not Joe Exotic).

2020/02/17

We dissect the, at one point, *most* downloaded song in history on this week's episode all about D4L's 2005 hit "Laffy Taffy." From trying to figure out the net worth of Mrs. Bubble Gum, to 50 Cent (maybe?) stealing this song for his own hit "Candy Shop," we paw through this candy aisle to figure out how this song came to exist.

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner we invite U.K. professor and definitely-not-Steven-Trolinger Professor Withersbee to discuss the 8 types of love as defined by the ancient Greeks and songs that exemplify 3 of these. From Biz Markie, to Sweet Tangerines, to touching yourself with Divinyls, we go through mania, Eros, and everything in between.

2020/01/28

After dancing around them for years, we finally dive into Nickelback on this week's episode with what is unequivocally their worst song that doesn't rhyme with "shmrotograph." Along the way we shed some light on frontman Chad "Freddy" Kroeger's sordid past (including that one time he almost got a man castrated), and Steve explains how he is, in fact, the very model of a modern major music star.

The Songtopsy Report ·

2020/01/13

Death Metal vocals are frequently considered 'inhuman;' Caninus and Hatebeak just take that one tiny step further. On the first full-length new episode of 2020 we break down 2 different Death Metal bands in which dogs and birds serve as vocalists, and along the way we gain some shocking insight into the upcoming biographical film documenting the rise and fall of Waldo the African Grey Parrot.

New Kids on the Block had a bunch of hits; this is not one of them.

On this week's equally festive and patriotic episode we dissect an obscure Cold War-era jingle in which a child pleads with the USSR not to murder Santa; how this song did not become a Christmas mainstay will forever remain a mystery.

Ep 111: The Music of Charles Manson

The Songtopsy Report ·

2019/11/25

Cult leader, murder-inspirer, and crummy folk musician Charles Manson will undoubtedly go down in history for instigating the Tate/Labianca murders in 1969, but it was his music that he most wanted to be known for. We break down the dark and twisted history of Manson that led him to the door of one of The Beach Boys who ALMOST GOT HIM PRODUCED, and we dissect some of his (and his "family's") songs that have leaked over the years.

Ep 109: "Jam (Turn It Up)" by Kim Kardashian

The Songtopsy Report ·

2019/11/11

On this week's episode we dive into the ONLY song by Kim Kardashian; was this song a legitimate stab at translating her reality-TV success into pop stardom, or was it a harmless musical fling with a grammy-winning songwriter? While we can't say what could have been, we can definitely dissect the dead and forgotten song she did provide to the world.

They're two of horror's biggest icons, and since this was the 80's of course they got theme songs. On our spooky Halloween episode we dive into the official themes for Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives and Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master to see which immortal slasher had the better (or just least bad) theme song; it's shock-rock vs hip-hop, and you'll want to hang around til the booo-tter end!
