  • How reflection is Bob Seger’s superpower
    Sep 18 2024
    It’s a song that finds a center in growing older, by an artist who wrote many of his best songs from a nostalgic viewpoint. In fact, the very title of “Against The Wind” by Bob Seger came from his highschool days, running track and cross country, a runner’s phrase that stuck with Seger and perfectly described how he saw his own life as a road-worn musician, maturing out on the road. The title track of his eleventh studio album - his only album to go to #1 on the album chart - it is one of the best examples of how Seger used his own life’s journey to get to certain personal truths that everyone can sing along to. Let’s look back into “Against The Wind” in this episode of the Behind The Song podcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Steve Miller Band, The Joker, and the "pompatous" of love
    Aug 28 2024
    It’s the song that put the word “pompatous” into our collective consciousness, a made-up word that was actually a mishearing of ANOTHER made up word. But it sounds great in “The Joker,” proving once again that in rock and roll, if it sounds good no one will bat an eyelash to question it. In fact, “The Joker” was the Steve Miller Band’s first number one hit on the Billboard singles chart, and we’ve been singing along to it since 1973. Let’s get into the story of this ever-popular song in this episode of the Behind The Song podcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • The secret sauce in ZZ Top's biggest hit album
    Aug 7 2024
    It took original thinking to make one of the best-selling albums of an entire decade, and that’s just what ZZ Top did, although they had some help with coming up with the sound. Completely bypassing the notion that nothing new could be done with rock ‘n roll, the trio released Eliminator in 1983, an album that blended their brand of Texas boogie woogie blues rock with synth sounds and drum machines, unleashing danceble rockers that topped the charts. But there is an unsung hero in the ZZ Top story. Dig into it - and how “Sharp Dressed Man” perfectly sums up the 80’s mindset - in this episode of the Behind The Song podcast.

Extremely professional!

Janda is extremely professional! All of her podcasts are so interesting. She gets right to the point about the background and meaning of the song and doesn't leave questions unanswered! I highly recommend this podcast!
