Welcome to the Music In Us Podcast, where we talk about all things music. We're a group of wildly different people from all walks of life, but we're all united by our love of music. We talk about everything from the latest hits to the classics, and we always have a lot of fun doing it. We believe that music is more than just entertainment. It's a powerful force that can shape our lives in profound ways. Music can make us happy, sad, angry, or inspired. It can help us connect with others and make sense of the world around us. We hope you'll join us on our journey through the world of music.

    Bonus Episode: Name That Tune!

    Shamelessly begging for engagements with this one! Sometimes we get together to record with no mission, no assignment, no direction. I've decided to take one of those recording sessions and divide it up into Bonus episodes. No intros, outros, bells or whistles. Just us blathering on about a song for a bit. In THIS, first bonus episode of Season FIVE, we didn't even name the song while we yammered on about it. So YOU tell US what we were talking about. There are clues, listen and leave a comment on Spotify with your guess!

    MIU S5E1 Nights in White Satin by the Moody Blues

    Welcome to Season Five!! Ok, ok, alright calm down. It's just us but can you believe we're in season 5 now? I can't. Literally, like, how did that even happen? Perseverance I s'pose! Don't forget to leave us a comment and a rating on Spotify! I promised better show notes so here you go! The Misheard Lyric video that A.J. mentions at the top of the episode! "Because He Cheats" a parody by Woody Undercarriage Moody Blues vids and interviews referenced in this episode: Justin Hayward (Full Interview) Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Acceptance Speech in full: A great television interview with Justin Hayward from 1977

    MIU S4E26 America's Sweetheart by Courtney Love

    It's the end of season 4! That's right, we've done four entire seasons of this show and learned something from every episode. Season 5 is coming soon, we've already begun recording. There may be a shakeup on the horizon but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it! Thank you to anyone who has listened from the beginning. You know we had a real shaky start. We had an idea and no skills, but got to it any way. Let's Hear It For The Boys! Ooh maybe we'll have to do another soundtrack episode soon. TODAY, we're talking about America's Sweetheart. A particular favorite of mine from the oeuvre of Miss Courtney Love. (Who maaaay be recording something new for us? I don't know, I've just read a headline or two here and there) Link to the video for "Mono" on Youtube Personally I've always liked it. Of course A.J. being the Nirvana/Kurt Cobain super fan that he is, has some things he'd like to say. And he does. We also engage in point/counterpoint debate. We give the lady her props, for sure! I think Virgin Records did her dirty by yanking her in and out of rehab to re-records bits. Picking the wrong songs, the wrong cut of songs. Just really giving the album the royal corporate f*****g over. Courtney deserved better. Have a feeling on the matter? Leave us a comment on Spotify and don't forget to rate the show! It will really help us out. Thanks again for hitting play. Enjoy the show!

    MIU S4E25 Cannibal Surf Babe by Marillion

    Guys I know I really suck at show notes. I promise to be better in season five. Which has already begun recording! So let's get through this together eh? Show Notes. Coming in Season Five. Drop us a comment on Spotify and tell us how bad we suck at never listing links in show notes like we say we will! Keep us on our toes. British Band Marillion. Check 'em Out! Here they are on Bluesky Let’s meet up and get beat up Well she tied me to the headboard with a surf leash And her wet hair hugged her body like a long-lost friend And I really tried my best to get across to her But nothing she would say could be defended Well her birthday suit it was her only present When I looked into her eyes - no history And I told her eating people wasn’t pleasant But she laughed a snake eye laugh and walked away from me And I watched her as she walked across the coals I watched her as she walked across the coals Singing: I was born in nineteen sixty weird And I’m your nightmare surfer babe Mr. Wilson where’s your sandbox and your beard ‘You still looking for the perfect microwave? So I really did my best to get across to her I said: “One day every pebble hits the beach” And I kissed her face and held her like a long-lost friend But she was too far out there to be reached To be reached She was too far out there She was singing: I was born in nineteen sixty weird I’m your nightmare surfer babe Mr. Wilson where’s your sandbox and your beard ‘You still looking for the perfect microwave? And the sun came up over the mountain And the waves rolled in across the bay And the fabulous brightly-coloured birds flew up out of the forest And she said “Well we’re all heaven’s beautiful children living together in paradise Lie down my dear... you’re going to enjoy this” And she looked like she’d had sex With a Tyrannosaurus Rex Singing: I was born in nineteen sixty weird, old man I’m your nightmare surfer babe Mr. Wilson where’s your sandbox and your beard ‘You still looking for that perfect microwave? Perfect microwave And I watched her as she walked across the coals... And the sun came up over the mountain And the waves rolled in across the bay And the fabulous brightly-coloured birds flew up out of the forest And she said “Well we’re all heaven’s beautiful children living together in paradise Lie down my dear... you have enjoyed this”
