Podcasts about song of the week

In this episode's Song of the Week, Justin stumbled into the dark story involving Tommy Dilbeck, the country songwriter behind Eddy Arnold's signature hit "I'll Hold You In My Heart," which Elvis transformed into a bluesy jam at the American Sound 1969 sessions that worked so well it landed on the acclaimed "From Elvis in Memphis." But is the song merely one of romantic longing, or, given what we now know, a hint at a more subtly obsessive message that no one had previously picked up before?  Content warning: potentially upsetting descriptions of domestic violence drawn from period news reports between about 03:30-04:45. Then John pulls double-duty, spotlighting two significant home recordings from 1966, "Hide Thou Me" and "Show Me Thy Way, O Lord," during a period in which Elvis was seeking material for his upcoming gospel project - what would become the "How Great Thou Art" album - and returning to the work of one of his favorite gospel groups, The Statesmen Quartet, to consider songs for potential inclusion. John also gives a quick primer on who the Statesmen were, and how they influenced Elvis's choice of gospel material.

I'd say that time was from the moment they announced the reunion/tribute effort and the realization that their new vocalist Emily Armstrong had ties to Scientology and a convicted rapist. Ever since then, they've dropped a very “meh” album in From Zero and played a long list of shows all over the world. With their new single “Up From the Bottom” out now and their North American tour coming up soon, it seems interest in seeing the Chester Bennington-less version of the band has begun to wane. Things have apparently fallen off so much that the band is having a hard time getting asses in seats.” (MetalSucks) _ Hosted by: Luke = https://bsky.app/profile/rockednet.bsky.social Alex = https://bsky.app/profile/voiceofalex.bsky.social Rowan = https://bsky.app/profile/rowbuck01.bsky.social

   The Royals fall short again and lose the ALDS to the Yankees three games to one.  In the end, the small things didn't matter much.  The Royals pitched well but the Yankees best hitters were just better than the Royals best hitters.  There's plenty of reason to be optimistic about the future and thankful for the surprising gift this season was.    The Dems finally trot out Obama and it didn't go well.  He's overrated as a speaker and Hope and Change is so long gone all he's reduced to is scolding black men for supporting Trump.  Oh, and he casts a shadow over Kamala. This strategy won't help much as polling indicates.  We have some juicy demographic numbers that suggests a blowout is in the works.   Listener emails are all over the place this week... some good, some tough and one that turned us on to the best commercial of 2024.    Lee Sterling from www.paramountsports.com has a new client special for KKHI listeners on the heels of his hot streak.  He also won for the patrons again on Thursday night.  We'll do the picks.   And our song of the week is extremely relevant to the millions of Americans dealing with hurrican damage the past few weeks.

   We could be experiencing the October surprise this week and not even know it because it's so dark and nefarious. Of course I'm the guy that will bring it up.    In KCMO they are blaming all the crime on everything except a city hall that's not a fan of the police department.  The latest?  Brookside residents want the National Guard called in.   If you're of a certain age, your childhood as a sports fan was defined by Royals/Yankees playoff series' and it was mostly awful.  Walk off home runs, storming the field, Billy Martin messing with George Brett and homer Howard Cosell calling all the big games.  It was dreadful.  This series could help erase whatever 1980's win over the Bombers did not.    Chris Jones had a wonderful interview on NFL Network talking about the team's mission this year, we'll play part of it for you as the Chiefs prep for the Saints.  Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with his picks and our song of the week is one of the hottest tickets in music singing a song that sounds like it's about Joe and Hunter Biden.
