What does it say about us humans that our most consumed stories about interactions with extraterrestrial beings involve them coming to Earth with a mission to save us from ourselves? We potentially have a lot to learn from other beings from distant places, be it the other side of the galaxy or the other side of our own neighborhoods. The idea of alien life forms among us or out there is too intriguing to not want to explore, and thankfully many of our favorite rock stars agree, and they have gifted us with some excellent songs about this very topic. Gabe Scalone returns for Part 2 (5-1) of our galactic playlist Top Ten Songs About Aliens.Feast your ears on the Top Ten Songs About Aliens playlist on Apple Music:https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/episodes-531-532-top-ten-songs-about-aliens/pl.u-JPAZEDJuLjErY3G?ls&fbclid=IwAR2HiMKxIwIqxZK6GTW1HDUklaMXmjw_ZYN4z5lbYvVDZ5P0wDlPUYQaGtUOur old pals Chris and Justin Wolffing made for fun guests for October's bonus Patreon episode Top Ten Songs With Insanely Long Titles, the rewards episode for $10 tier member Ari.

If aliens were ever to come to this planet, they will find millions of indifferent plants and animals, and a very unpredictable curious bunch of humans. Some humans will gather weapons and prepare for war, some will extend a friendly hand, and some will run around in circles screaming like their hair is on fire. What ATTT plans to do is to beam them this playlist. Songs About Aliens run the gamut in style and approach, and our good friend Gabe Scalone joins the pod for a look at the best songs about those creatures from far far away.Get more ATTT in your life!

This is why we keep Joe Lavelle around. Not because he's a good friend, or a swell fella, or a funny guy, or even because he's got great taste in music. Although all of these things are true, we love having Joe on the pod for his exquisite brain, the thing that came up with Top Ten Easter Egg Album Titles. These are those sneaky albums that get their title from the lyrics in one of the songs on the album. Join us in Part 2 as we count down picks 5 through 1 and once again walk that fine line of Obvious But Awesome vs Rare Stuff You Need To Hear, which our man Joe is especially adept at.

Top Ten Title Tracks is such the least brainy of all the no-brainer topics, it's a wonder it took us 11 years to consider it. The Old Boy Himself, the beloved Ryan Blake is back for part 2 of our ridiculous conversation and sublime playlist.

It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out this topic. Top Ten Title Tracks is about as basic as you can get, but still a fascinating topic featuring songs that belong in the musical stratosphere. We're talking the cream of the crop, people. When a great artist or band decides to name an album after a song on that album, you know it's best of the best material every time.

Sometimes our favorite bands and artists take longer than we want to release a piece of music due to various circumstances or obstacles. When these albums finally see the light of day it's a beautiful thing, especially when it becomes clear that all the hard work and time was actually worth the wait. Speaking of waiting, our special guest Adam Sears hasn't been on the pod in years and we hadn't seen him in years, but Top Ten Great Albums We Had To Wait A Long Time For was absolutely worth it. Adam's been playing the waiting game himself, with his progressive space opera rock band Lobate Scarp finally releasing their sophomore album You Have It All after 10 years in the making.
