We've reached the end of a road, friends. This is the last episode of Songwriting Idiots and we are going out with a bang!

Here's the weird thing. We've been doing this show for over two years now. We've tackled almost 20 genres and yet ... somehow we still haven't talked about the biggest genre in the world right now: Hip Hop. Well, boys and girls: Today it is time to change that!

The sound system's booming through the streets, deep bass caressing your chest and sweet sweet autotune taking you to a place of pure bliss – a place where nothing matters. Well ... that's at least one way to describe Dancehall. Here we go!

Here we go again. Season 3 of Songwriting Idiots is here and oh boy – what a strong start it is! This month, you asked us to tackle to iconic German genre of "Neue Deutsche Welle" or German New Wave. It's pure 80s bliss all about the relatable song topic "The floor is lava". Enjoy!

Just before the start of season three of Songwriting Idiots, we were wondering one last time. Wondering about one-hit wonders. So we are taking on another all time classic this time: Come on Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners. And what an utterly weird song that is! This really begs the question: Why did it become such a massive hit and why did the band never manage to produce another one?

We are in between seasons here at Songwriting Idiots and we were wondering ... Wondering about one-hit wonders. It just all seems so terribly unlikely. One would think a band or artist either cracks the code and they don't. It's either a big career with loads of hits or no hits at all. But the artists and songs we discuss in this mini series prove the opposite and we start with a big one: Black Betty by Ram Jam!

Time flies when you're having fun. We just started into the new season (or so it seems) with Death Metal and now it's already over again. This means it's time for our review special where we look back at the season that was and talk about what we enjoyed most (and more importantly: least). Also: We have at least two exciting updates to share with you so take a listen!

It's January. A wonderful time: Peak skiing season, peak Corona season ... (we wonder if there is any connection?). Ah well anyway, we are luckily not here to talk about any of that. Because this is the big finale of season two where Dan and Ralf join forces to bring you the ultimate party anthem of this winter. Oh and some other cool stuff towards the end of the episode as well. Take a listen!

Oh the wonderful world of Folk music! It can truly be everything and nothing – never have the Songwriting Idiots been challenged by such a hard to define genre. But truth be told: We both enjoyed it tremendously and you can listen to the results now. In this penultimate episode of Songwriting Idiots season two!
