Five guests join me to discuss "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" from The Young and the Hopeless, Good Charlotte's second album (2002). Yes, it's really 4 hours and 47 minutes long.
In order of appearance:
Gina Catalano of Black Is The New AP Style returns to introduce the song and discuss stats and some movies and TV shows it's been featured in.
John Ryan of Keep Flying discusses the song's background and dissects the lyrics (is fame/fortune bad?), pondering where the title may have come from.
Steven Klett explores the song's critical reception and how it fits into the religious metanarrative arc of the band's career, as described in his essay, linked below.
Candace Nelson dives in to the fan reception upon the song's release.
I (Molly Hudelson) dig into the music video as well as some covers that I found.
Jeff Todd of I Call Fives rounds out the episode with an analysis of the song's legacy 20+ years later.
