Yes, they're still living in nostalgia (podcast wise) to get us all through the pandemic. In this episode, Carlos and Megan discuss their favorite songs from their high school years (1990-1994). Carlos promises to never get singing lessons as he has the "voice of an angle". If you can get through the potential ear bleeding, please enjoy this trip down memory lane! Megan's mom innocently sings 2 Live Crew, Carlos goes punk, don't go chasing rabbit holes, Bobby Brown gets booed, a Wilson Phillips/Boyz II Men duet is pitched, and so much more. Somehow Megan does not mention Fred Savage and, of course, there are dramatic Nextdoor readings.

And in Episode Number six, junior high fidelity, we said oh, we're gonna do our favorite songs of the songs that impacted us from our middle school, junior high years, which were like 1985 1989. And then we said in there Oh, we're going to do one about the movies from our junior high middle school years, which we did in episode seven. But also in Episode Six.

Carlos Tucker:So welcome back to real suburbia. Nostalgia lane. For many of you that may be the soundtrack to nostalgia lane for you. For others. It may be this one maybe question mark.
Megan Tucker:It is like that. That's the happier one it is. But we promise we promise we're gonna take a break from nostalgia after this podcast This is it. No, actually, I'm lying, because we're doing music. movies from high school. And then we'll go back to more real suburbia
Carlos Tucker:unless we feel otherwise inspired because we fly by the seat of our pants. No, the seat of our asses.
Megan Tucker:No, it's the ass of our seats.
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, we just let the wind blow us whichever direction we go. And guess what? That's why you're hanging on. I hope you brought your helmets. Welcome back. It's real suburbia. I'm Carlos. And that's
Megan Tucker:Megan.
Carlos Tucker:Megan, my love my life. My true. Every thing. Thank you.
Megan Tucker:Are you sure?
Carlos Tucker:Thanks for being here. Megan. Let's get into it. All right. Yeah. So we are picking songs that impacted us from our high school years, which were 90 to 94 Oh, what was happening in the world? I don't even remember what's happening in the world. What I do remember the things that I felt the experiences I had and how it relates to music? I can't even tell you who was the president. Does anybody know who the President was? Was the President and was there in 90?
Megan Tucker:I believe in those four years, there was Bill Clinton and then george bush before that.
Carlos Tucker:And he was like, I mean, there were precedents. Yes. I think we know that. There were there was in fact, a president was the president but there were no United States chance at this time. That doesn't come in till 2000. Okay, okay. Cool. We don't have to worry about it. Let's talk about what there was. And that was the music that shaped our lives that inspired us. Before there was internet before there was Napster before the the way that we consumed music, the way we consumed movies, the way that film and media drove us and inspired us in our youth, as we were budding into adults
Megan Tucker:God, I hate That word budding. Yeah. And let's just for those of you who are not in our age group, we had no internet we had no YouTube in all this shit, streaming, etc. That's right. If we wanted to hear about news, we
Carlos Tucker:had to go out to the little corner boy was walking and selling off his little papers of news I believe they called him newspapers and we had to walk eight miles. uphill both ways knee deep in snow to get there. And that's the way that it was. We liked it.You recall that? That's an SNL. No, I am familiar with the last line. Oh, Jesus fucking Christ.Which we were really bad God Damn. Yo, yes. Yeah, let you do your bit venue. She blinked. Well. I just stared him blank. She knew exactly what I was doing. She's staring and blinked. I love you, baby.That's you. You're your baby.
Megan Tucker:I love you too.
Carlos Tucker:Thank you see? That's good. Yes, and thanks, babe. Okay, all right. We're warmed up. motherfuckers let's get it
Megan Tucker:Well, you're warmed up. That's for sure.
Carlos Tucker:Okay, so Megan's not warmed up yet.
Megan Tucker:I'm not quite. I'm not in the old like, I'm gonna do my old timey voice. I'm like,oh, like he's go Friday back in the 1940s. In the movies and the papers?
Carlos Tucker:Yes. Right. You know, I've got my big fancy car with gigantic wheels, the custom built bar in the backseat.
Megan Tucker:Ah, listen, I look back at a time when you had a phone with a big long cord. And if you had long hair like me, you get your hair caught and spin around in your kitchen while your mom talked to her friends.
Carlos Tucker:That's the way it was. And we liked it.
Megan Tucker:I didn't like it.
Carlos Tucker:God damn it. Oh, god dammit. Just give me the bit.
Megan Tucker:I'd hurt my hair. My mom would like the cord would be so long and she'd be walking around the kitchen. And then my hair would get tied up in it. And then when she'd go to put it back, it would like go in the cord. Yes, my hair would get all caught up God painful.
Carlos Tucker:Did you have the extra long one?
Megan Tucker:You know, we had to live there. There was no extending it was just this long cord and it would hang on the wall in the kitchen. The cord would hang down to the ground, right? So you could like go walk far with it. But if it was stretched, and you got your hair caught in it, and then your mom walked around like and then went to put the phone back. You're you get all twirled up in it. I don't think young people know what we had to live through. That was horrible. Oh, God. I mean, that was the worst.
Carlos Tucker:That's the way it was. And we liked it.
Megan Tucker:I did not.
Carlos Tucker:God damn it.
Megan Tucker:I want you to stop.
Unknown:We
Megan Tucker:But remember we don't get to do that anymore. Because our kids have COVID-19 to hold over us. So we don't get to be like, oh, when we were young, we had to deal with the popped colors and the polo shirts and not being able to call our friends on cell phones like our kids beat us.
Unknown:They beat
Carlos Tucker:So when we wanted to talk to our friends during the school day, we had to pass notes, because that's the way it was and we liked
Megan Tucker:Oh, my goodness gracious. Okay. 1990. Let's do it. Okay, go first.
Carlos Tucker:Thank you for sticking through the introductory. I haven't had that happen. So sorry. Yeah. Let's just hit it off. All right. We'll suburbia. That's Megan. I'm Carlos. Thanks for joining us.On tonight's episode of The Real suburbia podcast, we're talking about the songs. It's a continuation of the last few podcasts where we talked about music and movies that shaped our lives. And tonight we're talking about music the years that tonight we'll be taking us from 1990 through 94.
Megan Tucker:Correct.
Carlos Tucker:Alright, there it is. So hopped into this. I just screen grabbed a couple of things. I did a quick Google. Here's where my research went through. It was like, Oh, God, let me think back. What song that year? No, we're googling it. Yeah. What's your what's your 99 1990? Well, according to Google, and when I went in and I punched in Billboard Top 100 of 90 it was one where you know,I know it's strange. Um,why was it at that time that we were wrapping ourselves up in these chains? these chains these chains?
Megan Tucker:Hold on for one more.
Carlos Tucker:That was it. Yes. I knew that. There was pain, betcha. Oh, hold on for one more day and yeah, break free from the chains. Oh, man.
Megan Tucker:They were like sisters, there was the whole music legacy in there beach boy style. Yes. Yeah.
Carlos Tucker:And I'm gonna tell you, it didn't strike me as anything at the moment. At that time in 1990. I knew it was a big hit. It was a fun song. It was a little bit of a lift from everything else that was happening musically. At the time and they kind of Wilson Phillips. I mean, normalcy still sticks but like, you know
Megan Tucker:was brought back and movies. The one I'm thinking of is bridesmaids. Okay, that was fun at the end of that movie. When they actually showed up. Yes wedding and they did the show.
Carlos Tucker:Write often Yes. Yeah, absolutely.
Megan Tucker:The only one the only name of the three women in the group I can remember is carnie. Wilson. I can't remember the other. I remember what they look like. There was a short, blonde haired girl and then the redhead girl. And then there was Carnie. Right. Yeah, that's all
Unknown:that.
Carlos Tucker:And I think that the the point of of this song for me is not so much of what it was for nostalgia. But what it is now for nostalgia. And like you mentioned with bridesmaids, it's almost sounds like Oh, you know what, here's something that is going to strike nostalgia and everybody and for me, it was the Dan band. Oh, yeah. And, folks, if you're not familiar with the damn band, just google um, find them on there. It takes you five seconds and they are a cover band. Dan Finnerty is a is the front man for this group.
Megan Tucker:But what's so great about the Dan band is there in so many movies that you know and love from?
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, they were an old school. They were in Wedding Crashers and they always play like the wedding band. But the thing is that like, just like they got started getting put into these movies, because they have what they were doing in LA at the time, which be probably the early 2000s, mid 2000 2005. I mean, I'm like that. And they did cover songs in a slightly faster version sung by a male the vocal lots of swear words added in like they did I fuckin need you more than ever. Yeah, that's if you don't recognize him by that then you must Google if you do recognize him now that that you know exactly what I'm talking about. And honestly, it's just the nostalgia. It's the point of this of now that song means more to me now. More than it did as what it struck me then. So maybe I'm maybe cheating at this game a little bit.
Megan Tucker:Well, I will, I will forgive you. But also, it has a place in our wedding. And I tried to get the damn band to come play at our wedding as a surprise for Carlos but they were charging like 40 grand to come in. I was like, well, that's not happening.
Carlos Tucker:Not happening.
Megan Tucker:So instead I got Dan Finnerty to do a little video.
Carlos Tucker:It was the most amazing moment ever. It was fucking surprise.
Megan Tucker:And I yeah, I didn't tell Carlos and I had the wedding venue set up this huge screen in the is where we had our dinner and in played this minute long video of Dan Finnerty of the Dan Band
Carlos Tucker:and I remember like it was you know, a year one year three weeks and seven six days ago that was fun. Yeah, it was really fun.
Megan Tucker:So hold on was number one from that year was number two was Roxette "Must have been Love but.. we got nothing compares to you Sinead O'Connor. Do you remember when she was on Saturday Night Live and ripped the bible
Carlos Tucker:by highly highly political and very very outspoken about it?
Megan Tucker:Yeah, we got poison from Bell bibbed which was about poison. I believe it was episode six.
Carlos Tucker:Yeah about your road trips with your dad played poison and the discomfort of
Unknown:juicing was also that year number 11 you want to know mine
Megan Tucker:I have to say an honorable mention was pump up the jam pump it up Pump up the jam pump it up
Carlos Tucker:while your feeder are stomping
Megan Tucker:Oh a, a place to stay get your booty on the floor tonight, make my day.
Carlos Tucker:Oh yeah. What am I do do the flow I will do that. I will get my booty on the floor and i and i will make your day
Megan Tucker:Yeah, that was you know what maybe I should have picked
Carlos Tucker:c&c music factory.
Megan Tucker:No
Carlos Tucker:Oh, ah, god damn it. How about Salt N Peppa?
Megan Tucker:No,
Carlos Tucker:I'm the worst at this game.
Unknown:Yeah, it was.
Megan Tucker:This beat is this beat is this beat is techno tronic
Carlos Tucker:Oh, Techno tronic was the name of the band.
Megan Tucker:Yes.
Carlos Tucker:Okay. Yes. So band album.
Megan Tucker:And we had opposites attract by Paula Abdul
Carlos Tucker:The the one featuring mc skat kat.
Unknown:I
Megan Tucker:I believe that's right.
Carlos Tucker:Oh, no, we never learned about trying to intermingle. Like live action with animated characters. Never works.
Megan Tucker:Doesn't work. Don't do it.
Carlos Tucker:I think maybe Paul Abdul's music video from MTV actually did do it the most effectively. You hear that? Roger Rabbit? Yeah,
Megan Tucker:I guess I really liked the song Rub You the Right Way by Johnny Gill.
Carlos Tucker:How does it go?
Megan Tucker:I wanna rub you the right way, show me I didn't listen to the song beforehand and I remember when I was in LA It was like my last summer there. Some co workers and I we got tickets to like the 90s whatever the 90s got, what is it? What was it called? The 90s tour, whatever it it was Bobby Brown and Keith Sweat and Johnny Gill did en vogue show up. I don't know But it was so amazing. And everyone got a great reception and then Bobby Brown came out and the entire crowd started booing him. And I want to say it was Johnny Gill that came out was like, Why are you like dissing my boy? And it was just like, so bizarre. But so, so fun.
Carlos Tucker:I feel like Johnny Gill should have known by 2006 Why the fuck people were booing Bobby Brown at that point.
Megan Tucker:Yeah, I mean, and he didn't do so well. So that didn't help
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, that was probably the specific show itself. Yeah, that show him actually asking that question may have been the end of his career
Megan Tucker:maybe there were there was a lot of ones that you guys would know,The Power by Snap I believe that may have been our freshman year homecoming theme. The power now Oh, yeah. If I'm wrong platteville class of 94 let me know. I remember the that was right. Rhythm nation by Janet Jackson. Oh, that's a great one. I just want to mention a couple other ones because they're just fun. Janie's Got a Gun. Oh, yeah, Aerosmith. Huge. Blame it on the rain. Milli Vanilli.
Carlos Tucker:Oh, God. Spandex all day every day.
Megan Tucker:Rest in peace. And then I love the song everybody everybody. By black box, everybody. Everybody, everybody, everybody. That's the only car that the one I picked. probably wasn't the one I danced to in the mirror in my bathroom. The Humpty dance.
Carlos Tucker:Digital Underground. Yeah, yep.
Megan Tucker:Okay, but I picked enjoy the silence. Oh yeah. Depeche Mode. Yes, I did. That was number 66. Well, it wasn't up there in the top 10. Like if my dad were to hear Depeche Mode it would have been like, what is this? What is this junk? You know, like, it just wasn't top 40 stuff. But of course don't make number 66 No kidding. Like, like in creative writing class freshman year, they'd be like bring in lyrics to your favorite song. And of course, I would bring in Depeche Mode lyrics. Like Personal Jesus and Enjoy the Silence and I'd read it all dramatically in front of the class and everyone be like, what the hell is she talking about? I spent a lot of time alone in my room. Let's just say that. Oh, you know, Tori Amos, Depeche Mode. You got it. That's me. I do think that I should go into my 1991 song just to show you how different like my tastes were like all at the same time.
Unknown:Just for that like to go into my
Carlos Tucker:please do okay, go for it.
Megan Tucker:This just I love this fucking song. I love it today. loved it, then. Here we go. You ready?
Carlos Tucker:Okay, I've got my listening ears on
Megan Tucker:Motown Philly's back again. doin' a little East Coast fling. Boys to Men going off. Off not on
Carlos Tucker:I am way off.
Megan Tucker:Not too hard. Not too soft. It's long overdue but now. Like, I just love that like boyz to men, ABC, BBD. The East Coast family never missed. No. skipped. They never skipped a beat na, while cooling on South Street. Jet black benz, plenty of friends.
Carlos Tucker:Thank goodness. I'm not the only one.
Megan Tucker:And all the Philly steaks you can eat all right. I was born in Philly. My dad grew up in Philly like we spent our summers there. Look, I love Boyz II Men so much like I have like this recurring dream where Boys to Men just like shows up. It's bizarre. Oh, hello boys to men.
Unknown:I
Carlos Tucker:I want to hear more about this dream. Where are you the boys the men are showing up at a party and like this recurring dream with like, show up. They just arrive you arrive. Then you're like, Hey, what's up party? I'm here and then the man enters and you're like winter? Never mind. I don't count and then you're like, I'll just go back into my room. Lock the door and listen to The Cure.
Megan Tucker:That's not Yeah, that's probably. I don't enter parties like that. Like oh, look at me. Nope, I'm just at the party. And then they're just there. And then like the guy there was like the guy that had the low voice that was always like, ooh, yeah baby or whatever. And like one of them had like the walking cane and they'd be in my dream and I'd be like, Oh cool. What's up boyz II men like you're in my dream again.
Carlos Tucker:I feel like that was the time like to like they come and they had like the big suits. It was like this new iteration of like the old school Zoot suits from the 40s were like in fashion like in r&b like fashion hip hop in modern fashion.
Megan Tucker:Like it's suddenly like took that throwback, throwback, right but then they were talking aboutThey were talking about things that were happening now. They were throwing shout outs to other East Coast bands. And then they would break it down and do some like, on the street corner almost like barbershop type stuff and
Carlos Tucker:I had up. Hi, yeah, yeah, (Carlos sings)
Megan Tucker:If there was like, the firing squad, they should show up right now and take us out.
Carlos Tucker:You know, baby. You know what I'm getting. You know, I've been struggling with this real suburbia nation I've been struggling with. What do I get Megan, for Christmas. And the Christmas gift I think is going to be vocal lessons for me. So she doesn't have to struggle through this. Either that or just some really like good, serious like therapy. To get me to shut the fuck up when it comes down to attempting to sing.
Megan Tucker:If you go to Philly, got a cheesesteak. And if you know what Wawa means. God love you.
Carlos Tucker:Is that no Pennsylvanian for water?
Megan Tucker:Nope. Okay, I will later on listeners, I will tell Carlos what a Wawa is, if it they know what a Wawa is? Not if you know what a Wawa is. You need to write to hello@realsuburbia.com and tell me about your Wawa experience. Because we don't have wawas we do not have wawas or tasty cakes here in Wisconsin. And it's a damn shame. That's all I have to say about that.
Carlos Tucker:No, why was that a food? Okay, you said
Megan Tucker:Tastycake is a is a food.
Carlos Tucker:That was my nickname for you last night.
Unknown:a hoagie. Get a good cheese steak.
Megan Tucker:Other songs from 1991 that were well let's see. Number one in 1991 I see is everything I do. I do it for you by Bryan Adams.
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, that was from the soundtrack of Robinhood Prince of Thieves. It wasn't Kevin Costner that it was
Megan Tucker:Yeah, it was also we went through a we went down a tire rabbit hole for the number two song in 91 for the band Color Me badd. Remember? Well, I was like, What? Where are they? And I and I found out what every single member of that band was doing now. I couldn't tell you as the pandemic done this for you to god I'm so sorry.
Carlos Tucker:Real Suburbia Nation have you been going down
Megan Tucker:I wanna sex you up, tick tock you don't stop. rabbit holes? Yeah, I found out number. Do you remember that one day, this past summer I looked up every member and I was like, look what this guy's doing. And this guy Can you believe this is the same lead singer. He looks different. He's like 200 pounds heavier. And this one went to be like a crazy like preacher.
Carlos Tucker:And the hilarious thing was that we like I think that we managed to make some kind of a joke based on like any of their songs or something about any of their circumstances at the time and it's like well, I guess he didn't have that but they were like it was fun one day of like, three hours. What happened to Color Me badd? Non Stop puns, specifically based on Color Me Bad songs. That's another thing about this pandemic. If it's not music or movies like what's a random weird fucking rabbit? What rabbit hole? I
Unknown:do.
Megan Tucker:Carlos 1991 What is your song?
Carlos Tucker:Oh, God. Oddly enough, it's don't go chasing rabbit holes.

Megan "Left Eye" Lopez. Yep, that's me now.What's your 91 song?
Carlos Tucker:oddly enough? It's none of the above.
Megan Tucker:Okay. What is it?
Carlos Tucker:Uh, let me tell you left eye. I um, it's actually um, here's the beauty. You were mentioning. You said all taste was all over the place. I think that was the beauty of the early 90s is that every style of music became popular. Boom. All in one go my finger snap to give me a high five on that.
Megan Tucker:Oh, okay.
Carlos Tucker:You mentioned in yours and your honorable mentions. You had mentioned Aerosmith. you'd mentioned like he's our MP group. So mine was there was a it was a quick hot flash in the pan. Oh, extreme. Oh, okay. Oh then is all I have I needed you to know.
Megan Tucker:Then you wouldn't have to say.
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, I sorry, I had to start. I'm googling vocal lessons right now. Ladies and gentlemen, in real suburbia nation. I promised that I will not get better as a singer. I will never improve my sing ging skills. But I will never Oh my god, everybody. That song has been period. It's been like,
Megan Tucker:Oh, God, they have like long hair too. It wasn't the Nelson brothers. No, but it looked a lot like well, they but I think they had darker hair.
Carlos Tucker:But yeah, no, the Nelson brothers had like white hair. Yeah, but this was extreme. Okay, so it was extreme, Mr. Big and Nelson and they are like hard rock bands. But then they had their kids. And I think that this song is one of the ones that exemplified hard rock. But it's a hard rock ballad. And oh, did you hear that?
Megan Tucker:Yeah, it wasn't, me, I turned my phone on.
Carlos Tucker:It's actually it's a message from the person that I've been reaching out to. It's the anti singing therapist. They fucking respond fast. That was a great one extreme like everyone knows that.
Megan Tucker:Jimmy Fallon has a funny like version of it. We'll look it up at some point and others some was up there on that list. Tell me about I will tell you summertime by DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince. Number one DJ Jazzy Jeff had the first billing of that whole other band. But it wasn't like Will Smith. It wasn't like The Fresh Prince. Oh, yeah, it was DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince.
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, look, we're there but but remember when the like on like, because he was on the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. But then every now and then. He would show up and yeah. Bring in like DJ Jazzy Jeff to like, and he's like, come on, man. Let me let me try and let me get to it and he could not act. Yes. And it was like, oh, man, it was like oh, you see him now let's see that. Look up Motown Philly thing that East Coast family thing happening because Will Smith was from Philly, right. Let's see West Philadelphia born. playground is where he spent most of his day. I think it kind of reads back to that boys to man. Like there was a very big bond man. Live Devo, ABC. They did no, they never mentioned they never gave a shout out to DJ Jazzy Jeff for the Fresh Prince, which is either I don't know. But you know what i do think, though. I mean, you think they're all pals now? I don't know. I'm curious as to whether or not what, bell
Megan Tucker:boop boop, boop, let me I've got Will Smith on speed dial here. Let me ask. Alright. So summertime, I thought you know, I'm going to bed early. Like he and jaida are like they go to bed by like, 9pm It's fine.They are regimented. Like they have their shit together. We do not.
Carlos Tucker:Jesus, You know what, we're gonna go ahead and we'll just send them an email. Number one, I want to know the regiment because we need to get on that.
Megan Tucker:Oh, yeah, we'll get on it real soon. The chorus was like, summer, summer, summer time.You know, it was like an easy thing like sit back and rewind. Anyway, so what I was in high school, I was asked to be a part of this band. And they're like, okay, we're gonna do a cover of summertime. But you know, we live in Wisconsin. So it's going to be wintertime and we want you to sing. That chorus part would be like, okay, I'll do it. And there were other lyrics but it was like, winter winter winter time. It's cold outside. We perform it church dances. so dumb.
Carlos Tucker:Anyway, guys, I just have to give you the visual that I'm looking at as Megan is like prepping to say more like her winter version. She's got on she no shit. We're down here on the podcast studio, but she's like in the basement. But she's like got on like her scarf and a winter jacket. It's very it's cool, man. We are now into 1992 I'm ready for the first one. Want me to go from 1992 Let's see. You know what the number one song was? In 1992. Let me take a guess. Okay. Because again, I'm I'm riffing off this idea where like music taste was changing every other week. There were so many different styles. I'm, I'm going to Was it a country song?
Megan Tucker:Absolutely not. . It was the same artist as my 1991 pic. Alright, so it was boys, two men.
Carlos Tucker:Oh, not Wilson Phillips.
Megan Tucker:No
Carlos Tucker:Jesus, I need to get together right now and do what they do.
Megan Tucker:wouldn't be so weird. They got to pull.
Carlos Tucker:Yeah, like the whole Run DMC Aerosmith thing. It's time to reboot them but we're doing it Wilson Phillips DJ. And DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince bring those bring it up bring them all on. Fresh Prince DJ Jazzy Jeff and yeah, Fresh Prince. Not fresh anymore. No, but you know what? It's time for expired either way. It's time for Bell Biv DeVoe and the rest of the East Coast family to go ahead and accept Will Smith and his jazzy friend Jess.
Megan Tucker:Think Will Smith needs to accept them because he's kind of the end of the road. Oh, yeah. To the end of the road. Oh, number two was Baby Got Back. Sir. Mix a Lot. Yeah. Number three was jump by criss cross.
Carlos Tucker:You're gonna make us wear your clothes backwards.
Megan Tucker:So I mean, the top three were kind of in the same vein. And then And then number six was Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton. like Oh, right. I don't want to I don't want to say you're right. But En Vogue remember En Vogue and loved En Vogue? I'm loving. You're never gonna get it. Never.
Unknown:Again, I'm never gonna get an ever gonna get

Megan Tucker:Somewhere somewhere. In our video, VHS tapes. There is a video of my brother and our neighbor. And his neighbor friend Brent. dancing around in my bedroom, too. Right, said Fred. I'm too sexy. Yeah, and I have to find that. There is a video of them prancing around my bedroom doing that. I have to find it. It's sort of he was like the he was like the original Gangnam Style.
Carlos Tucker:Today mean?
Megan Tucker:Like, we're like, please, you're kind of making fun of yourself, even though it's like a catchy song. And I'm like, I'm not really a model. It was like Gangnam Style, you know? Like he was like, I'm not really yeah, like this star like right dance. It was just like this. Like, it's like it's a fad.
Carlos Tucker:It was all of the right pieces of the puzzle coming into play at the right time. I remember watching it and just being like, holy shit. Well, this isn't anything especially talented or special or anything. It's really catchy.
Megan Tucker:Now Mariah Carey singing my heart out and only number 16 while Right Said Fred is ahead of me with I'm too sexy. You're Like what?
Carlos Tucker:Like honestly like that was kind of an exposition of things to come of how music or that where talent no longer got you there, but publicity definitely did. And she Yeah, yes. And it was catchy it was it was kitschy it was saying it was catchy.
Megan Tucker:Yeah. catchy. What was your 92 song?
Carlos Tucker:I'm glad you asked that question, Megan.
Megan Tucker:I'm so glad I did.
Carlos Tucker:I just wanted to pontificate about like, yo, like, get it going? Because I want to know what you're thinking. There is some things you can hide.
Megan Tucker:But it's your song. That's not it.
Carlos Tucker:Ladies and gentlemen wall. I've hidden this one long enough. It's time to liberate my song. Bring it it was Baby Got Back. Oh, hi, sir. Mix a lot.
Megan Tucker:Yep. I did I say that. I think you did. You had mentioned number two. But it was huge.
Carlos Tucker:Number two, why are you I believe that it was you know, it was catchy for a lot of reasons. Everybody knew like the whole part. Oh, my God, Becky, look at her.
Megan Tucker:But My anaconda don't want none unless you've got buns. Hon.
Carlos Tucker:You know, I it was it was something where like, I think that a lot of the you know, hip hop stuff was really starting to come into mainstream. And I started to realize it when my dad came home from, you know, wherever, as a fighter pilot, he had been out to a fighter pilot bar with other fighter pilots on their base wherever they were at and came back and he's like, and it was like three months straight where my dad would just walk in the door and just go funky cold Medina. And he's like, Oh, my God, that's so great. And it's like, Dad, you're not allowed to know you can you can do that. Yeah, you don't get to bridge the gap with the youth. No, I'm sorry.
Megan Tucker:No, it reminds me of when I have so I have sisters that are like 16 and 14 years younger than me and I was in high school. And I came home one day to my mom feeding my baby sister in the highchair and she didn't see me come in and she's going Oh me so hungry. Oh, oh oh me so hungry and like, feeding her and that is 2 Live Crew. Um, no. And she was like, No. She's like, it's just it's a Weird Al song.
Carlos Tucker:Member No, no, it's Yeah, he do a version of that third l did not cover 2 Live Crew. He didn't
Megan Tucker:Okay, well, but my, my eyes got so big and I'm like what's happening? Mom, you have to stop. It's not like, oh, here comes the airplane. No, no, none of that it was Oh, me so hungry. And I'm like, scarred for life. It's over. Get the therapist on speed dial. I'm laughing hard. She was totally clueless though. Like, that's how innocent my mom was like, What's wrong with that song? I don't understand. That was very, very disturbing. When I was like,
Unknown:Yeah, no, you don't get to bridge the gap. No, you don't get. And I think that was probably a moment for both of us. And we're just like, Why are my parents listening to popular music? They're supposed to be listening to Oh, Peggy. Oh.
Megan Tucker:No, they're supposed to be listening to Phil Collins. Like, I'm fine with that. You can listen to popular people, but it's got to be like elton john.
Carlos Tucker:Yes.
Megan Tucker:And Olivia Newton John, all the Johns, but not Yeah.
Carlos Tucker:Olivia Newton john. You know, they're planning they're planning at mom's jazzercise. Not a big deal. You know, Huey Lewis in the news, I won't even I won't even leave that as fair again.
Megan Tucker:You can have that you could have Huey Lewis in the news and then have to live crew No, absolutely not. You cannot have Bell Biv DeVoe. That's not right. No, nope. My like 1992 was a hard one for me to pick. Yeah. So mine was a little bit tight. Well, it was tied up here. It was damn so by honorable mention my second runner up first runner up. Pardon me? was one by U2 because that's just such a it's a one on one. Yeah. Yeah. So good. I mean, just I don't know there was something about that song that my like, like hopeless romantic thing got to me it was a romantic it was I think it got to everybody.
Carlos Tucker:I think that one like kind of it went across like boundaries very musical. Very good songs.
Megan Tucker:Like that was but that was number 60 I picked the number 44 song of that year 1992 oh gosh 44 and it was just tell you or do you want me to sing a little bit of it? Well, let me let me take a guess. The single random verse that are random has a subtle lyrics that I might never face and is put her right back with the rest that's the way it goes. I guess. Baby you send me dead adrift a memory but the serve you love that song. What's the song title and set a drift on memory bliss by pm dawn pm dawn. love that song. It's very special to me and a good friend that I grew up with in Parag.
Carlos Tucker:Parag, Parag. Oh yeah,
Megan Tucker:it was just one of those for me and there's a part in it where he's like, talking about Christina Applegate. And I don't know it was just a thing that we bonded over he was such a close friend and there was just a mellowness about that track. Like just it was just very it was just like cool it's like oh this like I don't this is so lame. But it'd be like well that's a chill song. I think so No like oh no way lady like that's a very chill jam. Oh, like oh for sure.
Carlos Tucker:No, you betcha tiama super chill. Oh I really was but you know you should be prepared to do your next set of jams in in more of your of your jarring and canning later on this
Megan Tucker:I have it I have a I have a special COVID jam out called the Christina Applegate jam.
Carlos Tucker:Oh, I love it you know it's gonna go great with your apple pies but you know you better go check on that hot dish it's in the oven. It should come out real soon
Megan Tucker:Well yeah. Oh yeah, that guy no it really like it was like if you just listen to it it's just like like it I don't know there was just something it was like go listen to it.
Carlos Tucker:Oh holy shit you know there's something special about this time and that no kidding like music was all over the fucking place all over and all different styles of music were like just loading exploding changing and yet like going across all boundaries of tastes like everything was popular You didn't have to be like a certain you know group you know also how it was given to us whether it was TV which was the radio wherever whenever assuming it How was somebody giving you like a bootleg whatever, but like for me in LA I didn't I didn't have any like underground people handing me Yeah, but like so yeah, so it would go from like I said before we go from like the cure or Depeche Mode to like
Unknown:pm dawn and Jenna Jackson like, I liked it all. I feel like at that time, it was like you had a popular music station. And they played everything. And it was probably right about that time the schism happened where they're like, okay, we just have to be adding metal station. We just have to be an indie stage or like, you know, an alternative station. I this is kind of been a nice little reality check in and some to kind of think back and be grateful for in something that we experienced. You hear that? COVID? Kids, our children? Yeah, I hope they get to listen back on this. Oh, you're fucking COVID guess what we live through, we got to watch music, expand and explode into all these different genres take that. Or don't you know, or do or, you know, please, or don't? Here's the deal. I don't journal. I don't blog. I don't do any of that crap. Our kids will have our podcast. Like later, like later when they're adults, they'll have you don't I mean? Like, I honestly feel like, if nobody listens, you know, and we're long gone, our kids will have this, you know, like, that's, that's, I think, more than a lot of people have. So that's, that's what I think will will keep us going. is if even if no one listens. It'll almost be like a diary Journal of, of this time to learn a little bit about what it was like, when we clearly will, they're gonna understand us more, but they're still gonna be like, I don't understand what the fuck they know. It'll make make them very worse all the time. But, uh, but I mean, I would love to have that if my parents can, I would, I would give anything to have, like a history of my parents talking to each other to go. Button a click of the button, I can go to this link. And I can hear hundreds of episodes of my parents just talking to each other about their lives about their childhood. I would give anything for that.
Carlos Tucker:Oh, God, I need some of that Prilosec maybe a Tums. God, I'm showing my age. The number one song for 1993 was I will always love you. Um, God bless your ears. You don't have to listen to me sing. Whitney Houston. Uh, excuse me attempt to vocally work my way through what Whitney Houston can actually sing.
Megan Tucker:And you know, Dolly Parton wrote that song.
Carlos Tucker:Yes, that's correct.
Megan Tucker:I think a lot of people know but if you didn't, there you go.
Carlos Tucker:And the best recording of that is actually performed by Linda Ronstadt, one of the best vocalists of all ages. She was amazing. She was a little Mexican American firecracker, and you know what I'm proud to call her one of my own. Others are Mexican Americans and Latinos is young, and still got pride. I may look like a white guy, but my name is Carlos. So we're other ones. To shake my hand and take my whole heart too. Because I can't help falling in love.
Megan Tucker:Okay, I'm with you. assuming you're referring to the UB 40 version.
Carlos Tucker:Elvis Presley. That's right. Oh, correct. Oh, baby. You're so good. You're right on top of it. Way to go girl. No, that's not my number one song but you'd be 40 came into play and all of a sudden there's like this. Like red red wine you make me feel so fine you keep my rockin' all of the time. You keep me rockin all of the time. A red red one. I love you right from the start.
Megan Tucker:I feel very there's something very very wrong about us doing that.
Carlos Tucker:But nonetheless. Well, there are a bunch of white guys from Britain worth a
Megan Tucker:there was something wrong about them doing
Carlos Tucker:Yes, I know what well played. Let's move on. That was number three for the year 1993 number four was that's the way
Unknown:that slowly
Carlos Tucker:goes that's not even Janet Jackson. timbit cool. Oh, that's part of the one of you know what i have no musical a it's a running theme here from my side of the podcast studio over here. This microphone over here? Yeah, that was uh, yeah, that was number four for the year mine was Yeah, that's me DC me and my boy Steve Rollin
Unknown:tag team back again Yep. Party on you know that and that's your song but when I did a it takes to
Megan Tucker:to make a thing go right. Yeah. And you were like, Oh, I didn't know Oh, that one Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you were like that's where our childhood took a schism but now you're saying won't there it is. is one of your top songs. I don't think I don't think we schism this far out as you think we did. Because that's in the same vein.
Carlos Tucker:All not disagree.
Megan Tucker:Okay. That's it. That was a good one. Why why'd you pick that one? It was huge.
Carlos Tucker:Our friend who was driving her parents car, they had like this cool SUV that had a sunroof in the backseat, and an awesome stereo system, and it was blasting that song. And we were like, heads out the sunroof on the fucking highway going down. I 25 in Denver, like just like, blaring it out, like a bunch of white kids from you know, the southeast Denver suburbs,
Megan Tucker:White kids in Denver, oh my god. No.
Unknown:was just like, it was a huge song. It was it was more of the memory of that. It really is you pick that song. But it was also probably the first hip hop song that I ever like, stood out of a sunroof and like, just, like, railed off as loud as I possibly could to nothing but a GE thing. Because that was number 11. This is the one I remember most. I like it. But yeah, and even today, I mean, I think it still holds up, you know? Now that one comes on and definitely well, Megan, like, Oh, yeah. Do you remember when we were shopping for a location to to install our cycling studio? And you were like, hey, I want you to come see this space. I really think it's cool. I think it'd be great for this. I want you to see this space. And I'm like, okay, cool, but
Carlos Tucker:I don't want to be me. And you're like, Oh, yeah, no, no, you have to be somebody entirely different. And you basically threw a challenge at me to not be me. But to be somebody totally ridiculous. We're going to a professional meeting with a builder with a real estate agent with, you know, the landlord, the landlord, and, and you're like, I don't know you need to be. I'm like, Well, I can do Eastern European. You're like, okay, your name is Elvis bierbauer. Mm hmm. Do you remember that?
Megan Tucker:I do remember this. Yeah. So Carlos acted like, this, like Eastern European designer that I brought in. you need to be careful, like, whatever. And then she went without me around and tried to get Elvis Bierbrauer. Like, she was like, Here's my card. Oh, yeah, I know, all the restaurants in town. I'm like, bitch, watch out for him. And when I find out later that you're basically hitting on him. weirdo.
Carlos Tucker:I put on like, I don't know, like, where I'm like, I don't know, corduroy pants, a corduroy sports coat. And then I have like, little like square glasses that I put on that were like yellow tinted. Yeah.
Megan Tucker:And a T shirt on that said Harvard Law. And then in parentheses in smaller print. Just kidding.
Carlos Tucker:Yep. And now it's super funny. And he asked and the whole point was like, we're talking about sound because we're building a cycling studio. There's there's a professional sound engineer guy who's been like in this industry for 50 years. And he's like, oh, we're gonna need to use at least like three eighths inch thick stainless steel and embedded in the walls doubling while you go and spend all this money you spend on steel on these things. They thought I was totally serious.
Megan Tucker:But here's the best part. And it's like, I'm trying not to like pee my pants.
Carlos Tucker:But he's explaining Yeah, the the sound engineer He's like, no, it's when you get this bass in this repetitive dum, dum, dum, dum. And he's like, you know, you start getting this and it hits these certain and he starts getting into technicalities of wavelengths and all this other stuff. And he's like, you know, that's that's what you have to defeat and you have to you can't just absorb that sound you have to defeat that sound. And I'm like, Oh, yes, like, okay, you talk about these wave lengths, is like, you know, MC Magic Mike. The booties in motion Whoomp there it is right.
Unknown:Now, he was
Carlos Tucker:He's magic Mike's at rump shaker Holika DJ magic Mike rump shakers you know and whoomp. And it was at that point that the that the landlord agent and the builder Eric, they suddenly went fuck is happening here and I'm just like sitting there with a straight face.
Megan Tucker:And Eric the contractor, I'd worked with him for years.
Unknown:He kind of looks at me like, what the hell Megan like who are you? Who is this guy? Why is he like a part of this at all? And he was like,
Carlos Tucker:Like no this guy is he's like this guy's joking he has to be and you just see this like on his face and I'm like, Oh yeah. Oh yes I understand all the best music like DJ magic Mike rump shaker booties in motion right now. There it is. It was just like it was really great or it's like breaking. He's like looks at me He's like, wait, wait, no Oh wait, no and I'm like, Oh shit, he's onto me. And he's like, Oh wait,
Megan Tucker:and I'm like I just kept it straight face. He's like, Oh shit, he's seriously it looks like I'm like biting my lip, but he's looking at me and I'm giving him No, nothing but it was like weeks or months later that I was like, Eric, this is my boyfriend. It's my fiance like we're getting married. Like, though we were pulling one over on you and he was like, he didn't even like I thought he was gonna laugh. He was just like, Yeah, I thought something was strange. That seemed right. So my song. I'm going to give you my honorable mentions. Okay. Do you remember that? I believe they were a Swedish band called Ace of Base.
Carlos Tucker:Oh, the were they not Swedish as a bass? I don't know. They were something like that. Danish. Danish, Copenhagen. But
Megan Tucker:I don't know if they were number one. My number one deadline but was all that she wants. In parentheses( is another baby). Oh, that she wants is another baby. Then what happens? Oh, she is Oh, that she wants is another baby. Are you sure? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay, well, she must be really sure that they weren't even that great. But they were everywhere. Of course. What is love by haddaway? That one maybe should have been my pick. But I'd already talked about another podcast. That was one that I would before Saturday Night Live. got a hold of that one. I would.
Carlos Tucker:And then night at the Roxbury
Megan Tucker:Yeah, I would put that song on in that one bathroom. We had our little boombox and I would play that and get ready. And that was that's the way love goes by Janet Jackson. And then I tried to make you do this at karaoke with me, but you had no idea. It was I've got a man by positive K. I've got a man. What's your man got to do with me? I've got a man. I'm not trying to do that. See? I thought that'd be so fun for Carlos and I did doing karaoke. And I was like, we need to learn that. I loved love that song.
Carlos Tucker:That song was such a flash in the pan
Megan Tucker:that it was just I had to say it because I loved that one.
Carlos Tucker:What was your favorite?
Megan Tucker:I picked I picked you've got to show me love by Robin S.
Unknown:Is that you got to show me love.
Megan Tucker:words aren't so easy to say. You've got to show me love. No, it wasn't for you later.
Carlos Tucker:I actually I feel like that was the music video did have a lot of spandex in it.
Megan Tucker:Probably.
Carlos Tucker:I feel like it was like a lot of dance routine like fly girls kind of stuff.
Megan Tucker:So baby if you want me. You got to show me love. Robin S. I'll play it later.
Carlos Tucker:I feel like she was another Paula Abdul. Like former Lakers Oh no, she was that people and old people out there. You know what I'm talking about?
Megan Tucker:We got to wrap it up. Who's going first? You do it? Okay. Great. So honorable mention, which was okay, this I apologize. All that she wants Ace of Base was not the number one song of 93 but the number one song I mentioned before was Ace of Base the sign oh yeah sign and it opened up my eyes. I saw the sign. I had a thing with that song. I think I went to like some theme park in Ohio. Like I can't remember what it was called. Was that big theme parks I told you I went to

That's a song that I will go play at a bar and get free drinks because we will be like, Oh my god, I forgot about this. Who played this? And like, that was me shots right here. Thank you.
Carlos Tucker:And I tell you what, yeah, Senior High School love it. Yeah, that was the point where like, us kids had jobs. We were all about like, like, a lot of my friends were starting to get like really good audio systems into their pieces. That shit like, Oh, I can be down vehicles and stuff. And I tell you what, to this day, that is my true measure of a good sound system and is in a car. It's an amazing song. I mean, musically, and just like from from a composition perspective, I think it's fucking outstanding.
Megan Tucker:Yeah, and just to show you like, the difference of what was happening back then. Yes, loser back was also up there. But uh, my song was number six that year. Do you want to take a guess Carlos
Carlos Tucker:Smells Like Teen Spirit was I need to believe that was but no,
Megan Tucker:It was You say only I only hear what I want to say. by Lisa Lowe in parentheses(I missed you) by Lisa Loeb and nine stories.
Carlos Tucker:You know that was a one shot music video

Carlos Tucker:It was non stop they didn't end the film. There was no editing involved in the film from visual perspective. And it was directed that that video that music video, Ethan Hawke was directed by Ethan Hawke, who was dating Lisa, love it.
Megan Tucker:Do you remember in our Valentine's podcast, how I told you that I used to go to karaoke to sing with my cat eyeglasses and I would take stuffed cat stuffed animals cat stuffed animals and place them around the stage. And then like aimless aimlessly walk around the stage with the microphone singing the song to recreate the video.
Carlos Tucker:I Love you.
Megan Tucker:So weird. But yeah, that one I just I mean, I love the song. I sand it in high school in a band. It was it was fun. And I'm trying to get Carlos to learn that one all the way through on guitar so that I can sing it and relive my glory days.
Carlos Tucker:And I know a little bit of it. Actually, I keep learning. I don't know I am performing here on the podcast.
Megan Tucker:Well, we'll do our debut song as a couple. I'm getting better. I'm getting better at guitar that's been my as my as I can attest my COVID skill has been learning guitar. I'm getting better at it. I do not yet know a complete song from beginning to end, but I'm getting better. I'm getting smoother learning all these like random little parts of every just learn once not just one song all the way through that I'm learning technique. Goddamnit no learn time. Patience. And I thought what I felt was simple. And I thought that I don't belong. Now that I am leaving. Now I know that it did something wrong because I missedyou, your 94 song
Unknown:before it.
Carlos Tucker:It's a great 94 it was my gosh, your 94 song I think it spoke so much about Yeah. All right. Like I was sad. No, just the time.
Megan Tucker:Oh, yeah, for sure. It was like again Singles and Reality Bites. Yeah, it was like she wasn't like grunge but like she fit in with that. Like that every and there were so many different varieties of music that were happening at the time there.
Carlos Tucker:There really were I mean, it was such a breakout time I again, I mean, I said it a little earlier and I just become like, stepped into like this realization that like that time these four years in our life were one where like music really fucking broke out into just like very strange. It was like, I'm here. I'm there about like, Where do I I like them all. But can I am I allowed to. So Rolling Stone dubbed 1994 as the alternative outbreaks greatest year, and it just talks about how 1994 specifically was the biggest breakout year and the best year for this whole schism of alternative music and all of these different things just in 1994. And it was because of bands like Nirvana. It was because of bands like Stone Temple Pilots, Alice In Chains, you know, and it was like, wow, this is like rock. It's kind of like heavy metal, but it's so different. It's so but then I went to college, my freshman year, all of a sudden, I'm surrounded by these other kids from all over the US in my dormitory, and I live right next door to this guy from the west coast and he introduced me to punk rock, huh, okay, and bands like NOFX, penny wise. And like it was massive. It blew my mind wide open to like holy cow. Not only is this explosion of music happening on radio, but here I am now getting exposed to something that is just the norm for these people out on the west coast where they've been living it up and getting even more exposure to even greater different types of music. And that really opened my mind to punk rock I was a punk rock fan as a result. So ultimately, my song of 1994 is not a popular one. It's by a band called NOFX. And it's called linoleum. And it truly taught me that poeticism exists in all different forms even in those where you have expected it to be If you're not familiar, the band is NOFX. N, o, f, x. That's how it's spelled. It's called nofx. Check it out in the 1990s. I mean, that really opened the door for me and I went on this long, long decade to probably 20 years long stretch of time, where I became heavily kind of entrenched in the world of punk rock music. And even now like, I mean, it took a while to step back out of it, and kind of reopen the doors probably 2010 I think I finally like, close the door on punk rock music a little bit and open my mind to other varieties of music. I take it back. It was 2008. But yeah, but 94 was a year that that I basically made a choice and said I've got all these choices all these things are happening and this is mine. And that's what I put what I truly embrace for a long time.
Megan Tucker:That's cool that like you have something that spoke to you that strongly.
Carlos Tucker:Hey, you know, party on party people. Let me hear some noise GCS in the house. Jump jump for joy. There's a party over here the party there. You gotta Wave your hands in the air. You know what? Shake your derriere, but I'm fam pum pum pum mama hoo ha. Come on. Come on.
Megan Tucker:Later. Okay. Oh, no. Are we gonna do some dramatic readings from next door?
Carlos Tucker:Sure.

It's time it's time for dramatic readings from next door. A reading from next door posted by Stephanie of Parkwood Hills that is. Who do I call about a bubbling spring at the end of my driveway.
