Podcasts about Greatest Songs

Recognizing a tune that many of us think ought to be the national anthem, The Flood is celebrating America's 250th birthday with Woody Guthrie's most beloved song, as seen in Pamela Bowen's video below:Just nine years after President Herbert Hoover signed a 1931 congressional resolution to make “The Star Spangled Banner” the country's official anthem, Woody wrote “This Land Is Your Land.”About the SongGuthrie — having only recently landed in a fleabag boarding house in New York City after rambling and roaming, hitchhiking and hoboing across the country from California — wasn't thinking about targeting the anthem as he wrote “This Land.” However, he did have another song in his sights.Irving Berlin's “God Bless America,” recorded by Kate Smith in 1939, famously irked him — Woody thought it just didn't tell America's full story — and his 1940 composition was inspired as a protest against that tune.The reason for his ire? Well, everywhere that Woody had wandered in his long trek across the country, he heard “God Bless America” roaring from jukeboxes and radios. For him Berlin's song was too sappy, too blindly patriotic, too cut off from the hard-knock life that many Americans were facing as the Great Depression dragged into its 10th year. Guthrie wrote his song as almost a parody. “And I don't mean that in a humorous sense,” his daughter Nora Guthrie has said. “I mean that strictly in the literal sense of parody as a response to something.”Woody's original title was “God Blessed America for Me.” Nora notes, “He crossed it out later and called it ‘This Land Was Made for You and Me.' See, the parody turned into a more mature comment.”The MelodyWoody borrowed the melody, as he did for most of his songs. “He tended to write words first, and later on picked out a tune,” said Pete Seeger, Guthrie's long-time friend and rambling partner. “Woody once said, ‘When I'm writing a song and I get the words, I look around for some tune that has proved its popularity with the people.'”In this case, the melody of “This Land” is very similar to “Oh, My Loving Brother,” a Baptist hymn that The Carter Family had recorded a decade earlier as “When the World's On Fire.” That same melody also had inspired the Carters' own “Little Darlin', Pal of Mine” a couple of years before that.“Missing” VersesIn penning the lyrics to “This Land is You Land,” Guthrie, true to his original mission of protest, included several verses critical of the American economic system. Then, according to biographer Joe Klein, “he completely forgot about the song, and didn't do anything with it for another five years.”By the time Woody debuted the song on his weekly radio show in 1944 at the height of World War II, he had revised it, softening the criticism and nixing the more controversial verses about businessmen's greed and disregard for the needy.Of this and later self-editing, Woody's daughter said, “This is the early ‘50s, and [U.S. Sen. Joseph] McCarthy's out there, and it was considered dangerous in many ways to record this kind of material.”“Like most of the things, if we're talking about my dad,” Nora added, “it gets very complex here.” Noting that when The Weavers recorded the song in the mid-1950s, they also sang only the first three verses, “which, in one way, was very, very helpful to my dad, because we had no money. So thank God that they recorded something, and our family was able to get some royalties from that.”More recently, a growing number of singers have dusted off one or two of Guthrie's “lost” lyrics, as The Flood does in this rendition from a recent rehearsal, ending with: As I went walking I saw a sign there  And on the sign it said “No Trespassing.”  But on the other side it didn't say nothing,  That side was made for you and me.LegacyForty years ago a 1947 release of “This Land is Your Land” on the Asch record label was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In 2002, it was one of 50 recordings chosen by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry. In 2009, Pete Seeger joined rocker Bruce Springsteen to sing it from start to finish as part of President Barack Obama's inaugural celebration.In 2021, it was listed by Rolling Stone magazine among its “Top 500 Greatest Songs of All Time,” and just last year it was put at No. 11 on its list of “The 100 Best Protest Songs of All Time.”Cap'n John Guests on This PodcastMeanwhile, back to this week's podcast, we have a guest artist. As reported earlier, fiddler John Ace from Alexandria, Va., accompanied Floodster Emeritus Dave Ball to the latest Flood rehearsals to sit in. With Dave, John was on the way from Florida for gigs in Lewisburg, WV.Of Fourths PastFinally, over the years Independence Day has played an important part on many a page in The Flood's scrapbook. For instance, playing for a Huntington community party during the nation's bicentennial 50 years ago this weekend was a sweet memory in the band's first decade.

More than fifty years after it first sailed onto the charts, Brandy (You're a Fine Girl) remains one of the most beloved songs of the 1970s. In this episode of A Breath of Fresh Air, Sandy Kaye welcomes Elliot Lurie, the lead singer, guitarist and songwriter behind Looking Glass, for a fascinating conversation about the song that changed his life forever.Elliot shares the remarkable story of how Brandy was written in a farmhouse in rural New Jersey, revealing that the song originally began with the name "Sandy" before evolving into the fictional barmaid the world would come to know. He explains how the song developed slowly, almost like writing a short story, and how the band painstakingly recorded multiple versions before finally creating the version that would become a number one hit.The conversation explores the early days of Looking Glass, from playing long nights in bars and fraternity houses to chasing a record deal and living together in a rented farmhouse where the band wrote and rehearsed. Elliot recalls the moment when Brandy unexpectedly caught fire at a Washington DC radio station and how that single moment changed the band's fortunes forever.Although many people regard Looking Glass as a one-hit wonder, Elliot discusses the band's later successes, including Jimmy Loves Mary-Anne, and reflects honestly on the challenges of trying to follow a massive hit. He speaks candidly about the disappointment of his solo career and the uncertainty he faced during the late 1970s.Listeners will also discover Elliot's remarkable second career in Hollywood as a music supervisor, where he worked on major films and television productions including Alien 3, A Night at the Roxbury and Riding in Cars with Boys. He explains the vital role music supervisors play in matching songs to film and television and how the business changed dramatically over the years.Now performing selectively, Elliot still enjoys the thrill of hearing audiences sing every word of Brandy more than five decades after its release. His reflections on creativity, success, reinvention and ageing offer warmth, humour and genuine wisdom.This is a wonderful conversation about one of the great songs of the '70s, the pressures of success, the importance of perseverance and the extraordinary staying power of music that connects across generations.

The streaming era of music is still unfolding before our very eyes, but one thing is beyond for certain - streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music have changed the way we engage with, enjoy, and find music. Streaming has opened up the entire world (or at least, those with a spare 11.99 to spend a month) to the whole confection of music, all the way from the 1940's to today. There's plenty good and plenty bad with the way streaming services operate and how they've affected how music operates in our lives, but in today's episode, we focus on one question about streaming in particular - what have been the 100 most important songs to the streaming era so far? This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit thelizardreview.substack.com/subscribe

Send a textIn this wide-ranging and deeply reflective conversation, Machel Montano joins The Corie Sheppard Podcast to break down what most people misunderstand about Road March, performance, and longevity in Caribbean music.Machel explains why Road March is not about choosing a song, but about understanding energy, momentum, build-up, release, and timing. Drawing from decades of experience, he walks us through the science of taking people “to the ramp,” why you can't leave them there, and how great Road March songs are engineered to keep rising.The conversation goes far beyond competition. Machel reflects on:The philosophy behind his creative process and live performancesWhy legacy is built backstage, not just onstageHis openness, vulnerability, and spiritual journeyLessons learned from losing, winning, and being booedThe importance of teams, collaboration, and cultural memoryWhy Caribbean music must invest in education, documentation, and systems — not just hitsHe also shares personal stories about burnout, reinvention, mentorship, and why he continues to show up after everything he's achieved.This episode is a masterclass in artistry, intention, and cultural leadership — from one of the most influential figures in Caribbean music history.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.The last few days in the world of Dolly Parton have been a masterclass in why her name still draws instant recognition and genuine affection. According to People and Cat Country, she's rolled out reservations for her much-anticipated SongTeller Hotel in downtown Nashville, a project brimming with her signature glitter and warmth. Slated to open to guests in June 2026, the hotel includes a full museum devoted to her life and legacy, immersive exhibits, and two live music venues, touted by Parton as her “love letter to Nashville,” displaying not just Nashville pride but also her business acumen. This is biographically significant—her expansion into hospitality and legacy-building continues decades after conquering music, film, and theme parks.Knox News highlights that Dollywood, her flagship theme park, is mapping out plans for explosive growth by 2050, including new rollercoasters, fresh resorts, and even a possible cruise ship, all under her guiding vision. The NightFlight Expedition ride, set for spring 2026, stands as the park's largest-ever investment, reflecting her intent to cement Dollywood as a multi-generational destination and anchor for the region's tourism. This long-term ambition assures her influence on Tennessee's economic and cultural landscape will only grow.On the public appearance front, it's been a busy week. The Oklahoma City Philharmonic is currently hosting Dolly Parton's Threads: My Songs in Symphony, a multimedia orchestral concert blending new symphonic arrangements of her hits with video appearances from Parton herself, sharing personal stories about the dreams that shaped her music. According to OKC FOX and the Oklahoma City Philharmonic, the format is uniquely intimate: audiences experience the songs alongside Dolly's own reflections, amplifying both nostalgia and emotional resonance.Yahoo and AOL reported that, following last month's concerns about her health including a cancelled Las Vegas residency due to kidney stones, Parton surfaced on Instagram with trademark humor, telling fans she “ain't dead yet”—swiftly ending the rumor mill. Social media was further abuzz thanks to her viral TikTok entry into the “What's Up?” trend, where she playfully performed the 4 Non Blondes anthem, injecting her spirit into Gen Z feeds according to Holler Country.Billboard and Effingham Radio confirm she's being honored as part of the Grand Ole Opry's centennial “Opry 100: Country's Greatest Songs” album and commemorative events, including a spotlight on her 2007 rendition of “I Will Always Love You” for Porter Wagoner. This deepens her connection to country heritage at a moment the genre reflects on its pillars.Meanwhile, Broadway fans are anticipating the regional premiere of her musical “9 to 5” and the national tour of her Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol, as reported by Interlochen and The Carson Center, ensuring her storytelling voice remains alive on stage this holiday season.Forbes reiterates Dolly's business empire is thriving, with Dollywood, royalties, cake mixes and pet products fueling her $450 million net worth, while her philanthropy and literacy efforts stay near the front of her public profile.Every note, new venture, and surprise social media cameo from Dolly this week adds to a tapestry that refuses to fray with time. Whether she's masterminding mountain amusements, opening a one-of-a-kind hotel, or setting TikTok aflame, Dolly Parton continues to write new headlines—never resting on old glory, and never out of sight of the public heart.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Norman Greenbaum gave the world "Spirit in the Sky," one of the greatest records ever made. He chats with us about his iconic classic, as well as other musical adventures and misadventures over the last few decades. PART ONE: Paul and Scott chat about Instagram, artist accessibility, and what the heck Norman Greenbaum looks like. PART TWO:Our in-depth conversation with Norman GreenbaumABOUT NORMAN GREENBAUMNorman Greenbaum might be known as a one hit wonder, but that one hit is one of the most wonderous records to ever hit the airwaves. With its infectious groove and unparalleled fuzz tone guitar, “Spirit in the Sky” was recorded in San Francisco in 1969 and quickly climbed to the Top 5 in the US and number 1 in a half dozen countries around the world. It has been certified double platinum for sales of over 2 million, and is among Rolling Stone magazine's “500 Greatest Songs of All Time.” It has reached #1 in the UK in three different decades by three different artists and has been covered by everyone from Elton John to the Blind Boys of Alabama. After his debut LP, Greenbaum went on to release the albums Back Home Again and Petaluma in 1970 and 1972, respectively. Though he gave up recording in the early 1970s, “Spirit in the Sky” remains one of the most popular songs of all time. With nearly 600 million streams on Spotify alone, it has been featured in films such as Apollo 13, Oceans 11, and Guardians of the Galaxy, and in commercials for American Express, Chase Bank, Nike, and Budweiser. To celebrate the song's legacy, Craft Recordings has recently released a brand-new Dolby Atmos mix of the single as well as a new vinyl release of the long out-of-print Spirit in the Sky LP, cut from the original tapes.

After finding success with Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Krayzie Bone recorded his solo debut, Thug Mentality 1999, in 1999. The album was released as a double disc set, featuring a large selection of guest appearances, including Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Mo Thugs, Mariah Carey, ThugLine, The Marley Brothers, Big Pun, Fat Joe, Cuban Link, Gangsta Boo, E-40, 8 Ball & MJG, Kurupt, Naughty By Nature and Snoop Dogg. The album was largely produced by multi instrumentalist Romeo Antonio and was certified platinum by the RIAA. In 2001, Krayzie Bone released Thug On Da Line, which received generally positive reviews from music critics and went gold. In 2005 Krayzie Bone was featured in the song "Ridin'" by Chamillionaire. "Ridin'" was awarded "Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group" at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards. It was also nominated for Best Rap Song. It became number one in December on the Pop Chart 3 months after its physical release. The song also topped the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart when it was released there. The song ranked #3 on Rolling Stone's "100 Best Songs of 2006" and #91 on VH1's "100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop". It was the best selling ringtone in 2006, with 3.2 million sales, certified by the RIAA as the first multi-platinum Mastertone artist in history. It was also awarded the last Best Rap Video at the MTV Video Music Awards, which was awarded in 2006. Krayzie Bone comes from a fourth generation family of Jehovah's Witnesses, and as such does not celebrate Christmas. He believes many rappers are unintentionally following the agenda of the Illuminati.[9] On September 24, 2023, Krayzie Bone was admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles after coughing up blood in his sleep, what was later attributed to sarcoidosis. Doctors were unsuccessful in an emergency surgery. On September 26, he was sedated due to a main artery in his lung leaking. However, on October 3, he announced he had recovered from the ailment. Krayzie Bone also has a thriving foundation called "Spread The Love" that mentors and teaches at risk youth life skills and about the music business. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's not every day that we at What the Riff?!? review a rap album, but the Beastie Boys aren't your every day rap group either.  Hailing from New York City, Adam “Ad-Rock” Horovitz, Adam “MCA” Yauch, and Michael “Mike D” Diamond came out of an experimental hardcore punk band (think “punk” but faster) called The Young Aborigines.  After changing their name to the Beastie Boys, they saw some local success from a comedy hip hop single based on a prank call to a Carvel Ice Cream franchise.  They then began to incorporate more rap and hip hop into their sets, and ended up connecting with Rick Rubin, who formed Def Jam Recordings with Russell Simmons.Many of their songs were locally distributed, and led to uncomfortable situations when three white guys would show up to perform for a mostly black audience that had heard their music but never saw the group.  Their courage and live performance skills won the audience over.Shortly after supporting Madonna as an opening act on the Virgin Tour in 1985, the band recorded their debut studio and breakthrough album, Licensed to Ill.  It was released by Def Jam and Columbia Records, and became one of Columbia Records' fastest-selling debut records, and had shipped over ten million copies in the United states by 2015.  It was also a critical success, and was selected as one of "The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums."  It was hailed for hits stylized rapping, and its combination of hip hop and punk sensibilities.The Beastie Boys would go on to greater heights of stardom in the mid to late 90's as they moved in a more alternative direction, but this is where it all started.Lynch brings us this illin' record for today's podcast. No Sleep Till BrooklynThe song that opens side 2 is inspired by an exhausting tour, and it chronicles many of the events that wear the band out along with their determination to not rest until they get back home to Brooklyn.  It is often the closing song at their concerts.  It also features a solo guitar riff by Kerry King of the heavy metal band Slayer.  Paul RevereThis song is a fictionalized account of how the Beastie Boys met.  It was inspired by an incident when they encountered Joseph Simmons aka "Run" of Run-D.M.C. in a recording studio.  It features a reversed beat from an 808 drum machine.Hold It Now, Hit ItThis was the first single to be released from the album, and was ranked number 27 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop.  The video switches between concert footage, and the band lip synching in front of a fish-eye lens.  Brass MonkeyThis is a later-produced song that takes its name from an alcoholic drink by the Heublein Company.  It samples Wild Sugar's “Bring It Here” in the song. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:If I Only Had A Brain by Ray Bolger and Judy Garland (from the motion picture “The Wizard of Oz”)Actor, dancer, and singer Ray Bolger who played the scarecrow in “The Wizard of Oz” died in January of 1987. STAFF PICKS:Still In Hollywood by Concrete BlondeWayne kicks off the staff picks with the debut single from American alternative rock group Concrete Blonde's first and self-titled album.  This post-punk sound was bubbling up in the LA street scene at the time, and the lyrics portray a life in Hollywood where the town drags you down.  Right Next Door (Because of Me) by Robert CrayBruce's staff pick is a song off Robert Cray's fifth studio album, “Strong Persuader.” The lyrics chronicle an infidelity breaking up a marriage as told from the man who had an affair with the next door wife.  Cray played with a number of artists, and was at the final concert with Stevie Ray Vaughan before his death in a helicopter crash. Too Hot to Stop by Benjamin OrrRob brings us a solo single from the second vocalist of The Cars.  This keyboard-heavy piece was off Orr's only solo album entitled “The Lace.”  After they released their Greatest Hits album in 1985, The Cars briefly split up to pursue solo projects, and both Orr and Ocasek hit the charts.Land of Confusion by GenesisLynch closes out the staff picks with a rare political track from Genesis that questions global leadership and the threat of nuclear war during the cold war era.  It is famous for its video which uses puppets from Peter Fluck and Roger Law caricaturing political figures of the time, and the band members themselves. COMEDY TRACK:Ronnie's Rap by Ron and the DC CrewRonald Reagan was a hot commodity for comedy in 1987, as this satirical rap shows.   Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

On this week's show, the hosts are joined by a very special fourth panelist: Wesley Morris, a critic at The New York Times and the host of The Wonder of Stevie, a new podcast on Audible. First, the quartet explores The Substance, a lurid, monstrous body horror flick by writer-director Coralie Fargeat. Demi Moore stars as Elisabeth Sparkle, a fading Hollywood icon who is so repulsed by the idea of aging, that she purchase a black-market drug known as “the substance.”‌ The film caused a commotion at Cannes this year, where audience members reportedly walked out in disgust and the remaining crowd gave it a 13-minute standing ovation. Then, the panel dives into The Wonder of Stevie with its host. The new six-part Audible series explores the career of Stevie Wonder and “uncovers the untold story of an extraordinary artistic journey that shaped the greatest creative era in popular music history.”‌ On the show, Wesley is joined by guests including Barack and Michelle Obama, Questlove, Smokey Robinson, and more. Finally, the hosts discuss A.I. slop and the onslaught of online garbage and language model detritus. This conversation was inspired by Max Read's piece for New York Magazine, “Drowning in Slop.”‌In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, Wesley Morris sticks around for a classic Slate spoiler special, and joins the hosts in dissecting The Substance and the film's controversial, bloody, and borderline nauseating third act. Email us at culturefest@slate.com. Endorsements:Dana: Stevie Wonder and Gilbert Gil performing live in Brazil in 1995.Julia:‌ Today on Trail, Rusty Foster's spin-off newsletter miniseries about hiking the Appalachian Trail with his son.Stephen:‌ British singer-songwriter Nilüfer Yanya's album, My Method Actor.Wesley: Vote for your favorite songs of the past 25 years, and add to WXPN radio's definitive list of the “885 Greatest Songs of the 21st Century.”‌Podcast production by Jared Downing.
