Welcome to the Year Of Usher! Fourteen years ago this six-pack wielding R&B adonis had more weeks on the top of the charts than should be legally allowed. This week, Andrew and Dan unpack the belated Halloween hit "My Boo!" which is an ode to high school girlfriends that taught you how to smooch. Travel back with us to a time when Petey Pablo was a name people recognized!

Get your mouth trumpets tuned up because it's time to roll back the calendar once again to a time period before music was really music. In 1944, a group of brothers recorded just another in a long string of hits for their chart-topping vocal group. "You Always Hurt The One You Love" may not have been very memorable for the Mills Brothers themselves, but Andrew and Dan sure know a lot about it now. And, if you listened to this episode, you do too!

This absolute banger from 1983 coincidentally lends some spooky atmosphere to Andrew and Dan's first ever Halloween episode. With a completely whack-a-doo music video, a vampiric musical theater origin story, and a little help from Meatloaf's buddy Jim Steinman, this song is guaranteed to get you into the Halloween spirit. Don't get too spooked!

When you talk about the 1950s vocal group The Drifters, you have to be very specific about which Drifters you mean. The group that formed around Clyde McPhatter and later helped launched the career of Ben E. King had an ever changing lineup and a history of mixed success. But this 1960 number one single secured their place in America's heart for at least a few weeks. Over half a century later, how does it hold up?

Oh boy, this is a doozy. Kanye West is a complex figure in pop culture, but this week Andrew and Dan travel back to a time before Twitter when Kanye was just an unstoppable hit machine. With a little help from Jamie Foxx, this single off Kanye's second studio album dominated the charts for a good chunk of 2005. Of course, no discussion of Kanye is without controversy and we get into it (so to speak)!

One year before everyone was rocking out to "My Sharona," they were laying their lovers down on bear skin rugs and caressing their bods with some sweet smooches. And they were doing it all to this song by the aimless country band turned funky pop sensation Exile. Small spoiler for this episode: Andrew fucking loves this song. Big spoiler: The Trace Adkins cover makes us vomit.

A song so ubiquitous it's become the go-to reference for an obnoxiously over-played song. This week, we take a look at "My Sharona," the song so big it made everyone hate the band that made it for decades to come. But did The Knack deserve our ire for crafting such a perfectly hooky song about an underaged girl? Probably!

Boy oh boy, Dan and Andrew sure were excited to talk about Michael Jackson this week. And a song from his 1987 chart-topper Bad no less! But alas, a fun time was not meant to be. This week, we discuss MJ's middling 80s ballad duet that was somehow the album's lead single ahead of stone cold classics like "Man In The Mirror" and "Smooth Criminal." Let's get intimate.
