How reflection is Bob Seger’s superpower

Season 1 · Episode 136

mercredi 18 septembre 2024 • Duration 15:30

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

Season 1 · Episode 135

mercredi 28 août 2024 • Duration 14:36

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 inspiration behind Pete Townshend’s biggest hit

Season 1 · Episode 126

mercredi 21 février 2024 • Duration 10:52

The song is the biggest hit of Pete Townshend’s solo career, an infectious tune that the songwriter behind The Who has called “just a little ditty.” It’s a Hollywood favorite, used in charming romantic scenes in movies and TV shows. But like most things about this artist’s work, “Let My Love Open The Door” has a more complex and deeper meaning than what it sounds like at first.
