Valentine's Day certainly has its detractors. Whether or not you believe it's a made up holiday spurred by capitalism and the greeting card and chocolate industries, it nevertheless is a day for sweethearts. And it just so happens that one of The Music List's hosts, Heather, is married to the show's producer, Shaun. Both are rockers that have a soft spot for songs and their meanings. In this special Valentine's Day episode, we share a playlist of songs that have special meaning to The Music List host and producer. It will be sentimental. It will be heartfelt. But most importantly it's definitely going to rock.

In this episode, the siblings tackle the Best Family Bands- acts build on bloodlines, not just talent. Though, genetics being what they are, talent, like apples, doesn't seem to fall far from the tree. Using The Music List's signature draft and debate format, we argue which bloodline ties that played together truly earned their legacy. The only rule? The musical act must have at least two members in it that are blood relatives. Mother and daughter, father and son, siblings, or even cousins. Shared blood means they're eligible for drafting.

We discuss siblings' blood harmony, its effects on the music, and how shared DNA contributes to greatness. Of course, you can expect hot takes, humorous moments, and fierce arguments as siblings debate...other siblings. Join us and decide for yourself which family-based musical acts should earn top billing on The Music List!

Over the decades, it's not only the movies that have frightened people out of their wits. Television has a long, storied history of keeping people awake at night as well. In fact, there is something routinely grotesque about awaiting your own terror-inducing sleep deprivation on a weekly basis. These frightening episodic programs can't lure you in with rainbows and unicorns. No, they set the stage with some of the eeriest, mood-setting music the entertainment industry has ever known. For Halloween this year, the siblings take on the long history of television and the scary. Together, they provide for you, the spookiest, scariest, eeriest of television themes. Listen in to this episode of The Music List...if you dare.

The siblings are back—Ben, Heather, and Beth—taking a wild ride through the dark and legendary catalog of the Godfather of Heavey Metal. From Sabbath’s heavy beginnings to Ozzy’s solo anthems, they debate which songs truly define the man, the myth, the madman. But just when things start to get over the top, or day we say, mountain, they bring in a guest who knows Ozzy’s riffs better than most—an expert metal guitarist with encyclopedic Ozzy knowledge and a wicked sense of tone. Tune in as sparks fly and amps roar… it will take an Iron Man to survive these debates, but fear not...even though we're discussing the Prince of Darkness, there will be no more tears, and laughter and smiles will rule the day. This is the Very Best of Ozzy Osbourne!
