Famous Lost Words

Ep 508 - Stevie Nicks, Matchbox Twenty, Motorhead, Cool Song Facts


Listen Later

          When Marilyn Denis interviewed Stevie Nicks in 2001, it led to a deep friendship between the two.  During that chat, Stevie talked about Fleetwood Mac, her “coke & brandy days”, her Klonopin addiction, her friendship with Tom Petty and the best song she’s ever written.

          Tom couldn’t help but fawn over one of his favourite rock stars, Rob Thomas of Matchbox Twenty, in a 2003 Chat.  Rob talks about his unusual childhood, the sudden success of M20, the Grammy-winning hit “Smooth” and the tragedy that led to the hit song “3 am”.  A very in-depth (but slightly embarrassing) conversation.

          We were absolutely thrilled to discover a 1980 interview with Lemmy and Philthy Phil from Motorhead in our archives!  They reveal their biggest influences (Joni Mitchell? huh!), how growing fame was affecting them and the very cool thing that happened to them the first time they walked into a bar in Canada!

          Plus, Tom and Christopher share some more Cool Song Facts – including the weird origin story of “Smoke On The Water”!
