The Music List

The Music List Podcast takes a recipe for entertainment- a hotly debated musical topic, three siblings who love to argue, and open mics, and then tosses them into a mixing bowl. Shake up the bowl, and fireworks happen. The goal is to take a musical question such as greatest voice in a genre, best album during a decade, or best song by a group and create a master list to answer that question. The real battle begins when the siblings have to agree on the top five. Join Heather, Ben, and Beth, as they tackle the topics, the facts, and each other to make the definitive Music Lists.

    4 DAYS AGO

    Best Nativity Songs

    Christmas commemorates the birth of the Savior of the world, and musicians have been writing songs to celebrate it for more than 1500 years. While The Music List loves to enjoy songs about snow, Santa, bells, and Christmas trees, it is the birth of the Christ child that is worth celebrating and honoring. In this episode, the siblings bring tidings of great joy along with a competitive spirit as they debate the best songs specifically relating to the nativity scene. There are hymns as well as contemporary songs. Join the siblings as they tackle more than a millennium's worth of music to make the definitive list of the best nativity songs of all time.

    Black Friday Songs

    The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday. Despite the ominous sounding name, Black Friday is a great day for many retailers. It's the day when many small businesses no longer operate in the red but get into the black and turn a profit for the year. The siblings grew up as the children of a small business owner, so it is fitting to celebrate Black Friday with the best songs that have "black" in the title. If you think your Thanksgiving table got contentious when somebody brought up politics, you ain't seen nothing yet. This one gets personal. It gets heated, and on the proverbial chopping block to not make the cut include some of the most recognized rock classics of all time. So, what are the best songs with "Black" in the title?

    Best Horror Movie Theme Songs

    Get your popcorn ready, but don't expect to get too comfortable...Horror movies use the visual to scare you, spook you, and get you on the edge on of your seat. With macabre imagery and clever cinematography, directors can keep you awake and making you afraid to look under your bed. However, it is the often the score that sets the mood. It is a song that can transform a shot of a beautiful fall night on a desolate suburban street into an anxiety-filled moment full of dread. In this episode, the siblings take on a favorite subject of theirs- horror movies- and debate the greatest horror movie theme songs of all time. There are timeless classics and modern frighteners in this Halloween inspired episode. If you want to survive the episode, remember the rules: no hanky-panky, no drinking or drug usage...and no pausing before saying, "I'll be right back..."
