    We are joined by a good friend of the podcast Sam Bowden to try and help us discover why exactly this band decided to not go "full" sonic.

    You can also get tickets to his & Aleks Milinkovic's live podcast recording of Whoa, Free Lunch!? at the Factory Theater in May here: https://www.factorytheatre.com.au/event/whoa-free-lunch/

    Sing the following lyrics in the style of a barbershop quartet and you get a much clearer vision of Billy Joel's life in the mid-1980s:

    Verse 1:
    I may not be the finest thing you've ever seen
    My face is lumpy, crooked, and unclean
    But there's one thing that I know for sure
    I'm a model magnet, my charisma's pure

    Chorus:
    Ugly but still scoring with the models
    My charm and wit are the keys to the throttle
    I may not have the looks, but I have the game
    Models on my arm, I'm on top of the fame

    Verse 2:
    I may not have a chiseled jaw or perfect teeth
    But I've got something else that's hard to beat
    I've got a confidence that's out of sight
    And models just can't resist my delight

    Chorus:
    Ugly but still scoring with the models
    My charm and wit are the keys to the throttle
    I may not have the looks, but I have the game
    Models on my arm, I'm on top of the fame

    Bridge:
    It's not about how you look, it's how you act
    A good personality is a solid fact
    So don't let your looks get you down
    With the right attitude, you'll be the talk of the town

    Chorus:
    Ugly but still scoring with the models
    My charm and wit are the keys to the throttle
    I may not have the looks, but I have the game
    Models on my arm, I'm on top of the fame

    Outro:
    So if you're feeling down about your looks
    Just remember what's in those model's books
    They're looking for a man with a good heart
    So let your confidence be the start.

    Here are the 6 ways to be successful in the music industry:

    1. Talent: Having natural talent and skill in creating music can give artists an edge in the industry. However, talent alone is not enough to guarantee success.
    2. Hard work and dedication: Consistently working hard and being dedicated to one's craft can help an artist stand out in a highly competitive industry.
    3. Networking: Building relationships with other industry professionals, such as producers, managers, and other musicians, can help create opportunities for exposure and collaborations.
    4. Branding and marketing: Having a strong brand and marketing strategy can help an artist connect with their audience and stand out in a crowded market.
    5. Persistence and resilience: The music industry can be tough, and success is not always immediate. Being persistent and resilient in the face of setbacks and rejections can help an artist push through and eventually achieve success.
    6.  Write a song about a very specific time for any operational business that is such a no-brainer to play that you are guaranteed royalties for all of eternity.

  • The Sound - The 1975

    Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now!

    Most people don't know that this song was based on a horror novel set in 1975. Please read the original blurb below:

    In 1975, a team of scientists stumbled upon a discovery that would change the course of medical history. Deep in the jungles of South America, they had found the largest heart ever documented. At first, it was a wonder to behold - its size was unimaginable, and it seemed to pulse with a life of its own. But as they delved deeper into their research, strange things began to happen. The scientists began to experience nightmares and hallucinations, and whispers of a curse began to circulate among the locals. As they probed the secrets of the colossal heart, they unwittingly unleashed a terror that would haunt them for the rest of their lives.

    As the team returned to their lab with the heart, they noticed an unnatural darkness seeping into the world around them. The air grew thick with a palpable sense of dread, and the heart began to pulse with an otherworldly energy. Soon, they realized that the heart was more than just a mere organ - it was a vessel for something far more sinister. As the scientists worked tirelessly to uncover the secrets of the heart, they unwittingly summoned an ancient evil that had been slumbering for centuries. And now, as the darkness begins to spread, they must race against time to stop the heart before it unleashes its full power and destroys them all.

    Can Chat GPT write better lyrics than Nicki Minaj? You tell me!

    Verse 1:
    I'm the queen of the stars, Nicki Minaj

    My two passions, no hesitation
    I'll fly high and get my body right
    Nicki Minaj, shining bright

    Breast implants, they keep me gifted
    No need for bras, they stay in place
    My body's a work of art, no need to erase

    Space travel and breast augmentation
    My two passions, no hesitation
    I'll fly high and get my body right
    Nicki Minaj, shining bright

    Chorus:
    Space travel and breast augmentation
    My two passions, no hesitation
    I'll fly high and get my body right
    Nicki Minaj, shining bright

    Q/ If SZA killed her boyfriend would she go to jail?

    A/ Yes, if someone were to kill their partner or anyone else, they could be charged with murder or manslaughter and, if convicted, could face imprisonment depending on the circumstances of the case.

    The exact charges and sentence that SZA might face would depend on a variety of factors, such as the circumstances surrounding the killing, the jurisdiction in which it occurred, and whether the killing was deemed intentional, accidental, or in self-defence. In any case, taking someone's life is a serious crime, and it is important for anyone involved in such a situation to seek the advice of an experienced criminal defence attorney.
