Fading into the Sun would be a dramatic, cosmic event! Let’s break it down scientifically and metaphorically:

Scientifically:

  1. Approaching the Sun:
    • As you get closer, you’ll encounter intense solar radiation and extreme heat.
    • At roughly 1.5 million kilometres (the Sun's corona), temperatures can exceed 1 million°C, and radiation would vaporize any matter.
  2. Gravitational Effects:
    • The Sun’s gravity is immense. Approaching it, you’d accelerate rapidly and likely be pulled into the solar plasma.
  3. Disintegration:
    • Any object (or person) would be completely incinerated long before reaching the Sun’s surface. The intense heat would strip atoms apart, leaving only plasma—a state of matter consisting of free ions and electrons.

Chibbs
just Oh yeah, how but the kindergarten preschool, maybe. Was this written by preschoolers?

04:51.05
Bevo
committee.

04:55.81
Chibbs
Yeah, know. Yeah,

05:04.60

Mad Dog
Yeah, it wouldn't even make the window like the display window.

05:16.00
Chibbs
Nah.

05:18.52
Chibbs

05:25.22
Mad Dog

05:29.95
Chibbs

05:35.72
Mad Dog
Okay.

05:35.81
Chibbs
i I was going to try and figure out a game to be like, is this from a kindergarten kid or is it Lenny Kravitz?

05:43.27

06:30.25
Chibbs

06:43.77
Bevo
tu ninynitty do k needter you did

07:03.28
Bevo
American songbook and punk goes pop.

07:03.61

07:07.93
gav
Oh God.

07:14.30
gav
ah No, they're both from the same.

07:14.70
Chibbs
Like...

07:16.70
gav
They're, they're, they're of the same era. Let me grab it to 60.

07:18.82
Chibbs
Okay. So yeah, it's an old man.

07:20.25
gav
Let me grab it to fucking 60, man.

07:22.00
Chibbs
I know, but okay. So would we have like Sabrina Carpenter sings?

07:26.10
Bevo
Britney Spears.

07:27.63
gav
Ella Fitzgerald.

07:29.16
Chibbs
No, Ella Fitzgerald's too old. Yeah. They'd have to be like, yeah, Britney Spears.

07:31.92
gav
Oh, I see the trope.

07:33.06
Chibbs
Like all things.

07:33.21
Bevo
Which like not that far from the truth because at her confidence she does a few covers like that.

07:33.80
gav
I see. I see.

07:35.09
Chibbs
Yeah. Like, yeah.

07:36.31

07:40.85
Bevo
Mike Paul does Mike Tyson.

07:40.99
Chibbs
Yeah. yeah

07:44.24
Chibbs
Yeah. Olivia Rodrigo sings, um, corn.

07:44.99
gav
ah I would, you have no idea how much money I'd pay for that.

07:49.93
Bevo
Alanis Morrison.

07:50.92
Chibbs
like

07:54.20
Chibbs
Like what is it? What, what 70 year old singer is going to be seeing someone else's catalog? That's like just 20 years older than them. Like I wonder what it'll be.

08:05.75
gav
Yeah, fuck.

08:06.15
Chibbs
It's worth living for.

08:08.34
Mad Dog
It is worthwhile.

08:08.30
Bevo
Do you know?

08:08.69
gav
Yeah, I suspect by that point, it won't be.

08:09.55
Bevo
ah

08:12.28
Mad Dog
No.

08:12.32
Bevo
Yeah, true.

08:12.40
Chibbs
Yeah. It would speak AI.

08:13.56
Bevo
I was on the social the other day and someone was advertising for a gig and they were like, it's for a 40th birthday in my head.

08:14.01
gav
Yeah.

08:18.40
Bevo
I was like, okay, 40th birthday. That'd be like some old bangers. And I was like, Oh, I'm nearly four.

08:23.70
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's me.

08:26.24
Mad Dog
and

08:27.50
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

08:28.06
Mad Dog
That's right. My wheelhouse.

08:29.48
Chibbs
You'd be like, oh, what do I like?

08:29.61
gav
Oh, that's so tough.

08:29.70
Mad Dog
Yeah.

08:32.41
Bevo
like there's theres ah

08:32.73
gav
I'll say Bevo trying to figure out Candy Shop by Fiddy said on the guitar.

08:37.10
Bevo
There's a band, there's a band, and a friend of mine's in a band called Never Ending 80s and they're quite popular. They tour around the country and stuff, but they started becoming never ending 90s because the guest in the audience just stopped.

08:42.96
Chibbs
Okay.

08:46.21
gav
Oh, no.

08:46.22
Chibbs
Right, yeah.

08:46.97
Mad Dog
Sick.

08:48.29
gav
Oh, that's like, um, that's like, um, Royale with Cheese. Have you ever seen Royale with Cheese around?

08:51.98
Bevo
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

08:53.29
gav
Yeah, those guys kick fucking heaps of ass.

08:54.62
Bevo
But like, if you start rehearsing now for the early 2000s cover band, you're in, in like, Flint.

08:58.53
Chibbs
Oh, yeah.

08:59.62
gav
You'd be, you'd be on the money. Right, right.

09:01.39
Chibbs
Surely there's a there's a like a new metal tribute acts like could make a lot of money these days.

09:07.80
Bevo
Well, it just depends if that crowd's going to the pub.

09:08.30
Mad Dog
Surely.

09:08.33
gav
I wouldn't, I wouldn't say a lot of money. I don't even think anyone in the original New Metal bands made a lot of money.

09:13.51
Chibbs
I don't know. I think people would go out and watch a lit biscuit tribute band.

09:18.88
Mad Dog
or Linkin Park.

09:18.97
Bevo
Let's find out.

09:20.48
Chibbs
Yeah.

09:20.83
gav
Oh, to be fair, I'd probably go see that.

09:21.85
Bevo
There you go.

09:22.45
Chibbs
There is a really big Lincoln Park um tribute band that gets around.

09:26.90
Bevo
Link Biscorn. Biscorn. There's your bin.

09:28.80
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah, it writes itself.

09:30.91
gav
Oh yeah.

09:31.45
Chibbs
Speaking of writing in itself, the first verse of Lenny Kravitz, Fly Away.

09:34.88
Mad Dog
know around here we guy

09:35.88
gav
Go on, hit us with it.

09:37.48
Chibbs
I wish that I could fly into the sky so very high, just like a dragonfly. I'd fly above the trees, over the seas, in all degrees, to anywhere I please.

09:54.44
Chibbs
Oh!

09:57.42
gav
That's such a fucking bad verse.

09:58.86
Bevo
Terrible, eh?

09:59.03
Mad Dog
That is so shit.

10:00.64
Chibbs
Yeah, but the O is like, yeah.

10:03.16
gav
oh Yeah.

10:06.64
Mad Dog
Oh, where do you start?

10:06.93
Chibbs
ah this Well, this is exactly, we haven't spoken about this in a long time, but it's the perfect example of lyrics don't mean anything if you look fucking cool and you sing it with confidence.

10:21.20
Bevo
Totally.

10:21.33
gav
ah

10:22.40
Bevo
Totally.

10:22.90
Mad Dog
Yeah, a hundred percent.

10:22.96
Chibbs
Yeah. Yeah. Because we've all heard this song. We all know it. We probably could have all sung it from memory, but I've never seen this fucking stupid.

10:30.63
Bevo
yeah

10:31.27
Mad Dog
yeah

10:33.70
gav
That's so true. I just also, I feel like, like, if you're going to go all in on a rhyming scheme, don't make it A, A, A, A, B, B, B, B.

10:34.90
Chibbs
Yeah.

10:42.25
Bevo
yeah well that's the thing it's like everything tracks it's all it's all on theme except for maybe in all degrees i feel like that's a bit lazy um uh he's used to what he's used all the good words

10:43.67
gav
That's so fucking shit.

10:43.70
Mad Dog
I know.

10:50.32
gav
That's, that's a bit out of there.

10:50.81
Chibbs
Yeah.

10:51.48
gav
Yeah.

10:52.40
Chibbs
What would you have done instead of degrees? Over the seas? Yeah, no, just like he dropped because I was going to be like, we have to do something about please.

11:00.05
gav
Come and

11:02.84
Chibbs
It's like, oh no, he he does.

11:03.28
gav
I was gonna say, let let me fuck you, please.

11:05.73
Mad Dog
nothing

11:05.80
gav
Oh wait, the next line's please, shit.

11:07.10
Chibbs
To anywhere I please. I can't rhyme please with please. I'll look stupid.

11:09.77
gav
Ah.

11:11.73
Mad Dog
Not on my knees.

11:12.09
gav
And then he says, odd.

11:13.28
Chibbs
Not on my knees. Jeez.

11:18.11
Mad Dog
Gee!

11:19.09
gav
Oh Oh jeez.

11:19.47
Mad Dog
That's probably more crab it's like.

11:20.63
Chibbs
how do you end how do you end a sentence with the word jeez oh

11:24.48
gav
Let me come anywhere, i please. Oh jeez.

11:28.37
Mad Dog
I'd fly above the trees over the seas. Oh geez.

11:31.68
gav
Oh, gee. I think Jim's having a hard time over there.

11:37.29
Mad Dog
To wherever I please.

11:39.13
Bevo
Oh jeez!

11:39.27
gav
more Oh, geez.

11:43.21
Bevo
That's where Lenny loses his glasses. Aw jeez!

11:48.16

12:13.43
gav
In all degrees.

12:13.54
Chibbs
yeah

12:14.02
Bevo
It's like, I'm just, I'm, no, no, no, it's like, like a compass.

12:14.43
Mad Dog
Is that, are we talking Celsius?

12:16.84
gav
I would have thought 10.

12:18.08
Chibbs
Hard to like, yeah, he can go, yeah, like a dragonfly can go up, down, around.

12:18.87
Bevo
Like I'm, I'm just about to fly 165 degrees south.

12:27.65
Mad Dog
It's on a 300.

12:27.99
gav
So it's, it's, it's, it's degrees in terms of an azimuth.

12:28.79
Bevo
Well, maybe it is, or maybe it is Celsius, like, like, yeah.

12:30.95

Mad Dog
Right.

12:35.11
Chibbs
It could be hate, it could be, a yeah.

12:38.11
Mad Dog
I was thinking,

12:38.64

I'd love to see a dragon fly in like 9,000 degrees on the sun.

12:42.28
Chibbs
Yeah, on the sun!

12:45.02
gav
I don't think it would last long.

12:45.74
Chibbs
Yeah.

12:46.26
gav
I don't think you can do that.

12:46.70
Chibbs
No, I don't even think a dragonfly would fucking fly around when it's that cold, to be honest with you.

12:50.63
Bevo
I don't think it'd fly that high, actually, either.

12:51.33
gav
sh True.

12:52.69
Mad Dog
I was going to, a dragonfly isn't going that far above the trees.

12:52.88

Mad Dog
I ah feel like it's this level, like it's not.

12:59.43

13:06.03
gav

13:48.68
Chibbs
Dragonflies are scary.

gav
You wake up a dog

14:21.48
Chibbs
Yeah, don't make me hit the button.

14:22.91
Bevo
He used to say, and everyone knows him as Cuz. I don't think he'll ever listen to this, but um he he used to say that like when he dated girls, he would ask them what their superpower would be if they could have one because then he could tell what kind of girl they are. Cause if they said they wanted to fly, it was like in Forrest Gump where she's like, Lord, make me a bird so I can fly.

14:42.06
gav
Oh God. Sorry. he Thought that'd been abused.

14:44.51
Chibbs
Yeah, they molested at home.

14:44.56
Bevo
Yes, so I don't want to mention his name.

14:47.20
Chibbs
business

14:47.82
gav
Okay. Now that's grim.

14:49.70
Bevo
Yeah, so and that's what I think about when I think about this chorus is Jenny made me a bird so I can fly far, far, far away.

14:52.45
gav
So you think, I think, I think learning.

14:55.27
Chibbs
This person is just like, what tip are you on? I'd like to fly away. You automatically just go like, molested, hippie, drug addict, AIDS, dead.

15:04.59
Bevo
like pan thepoy

15:05.32
gav
Ah,

15:08.42
Chibbs
I'm in, god damn it.

15:10.28
Mad Dog

15:12.57
Chibbs
Yeah.

15:14.61
Mad Dog
Fritzl.

15:15.97
Chibbs
Why?

15:17.30

15:17.67
Chibbs
No one's fucking free there.

15:19.53
Mad Dog
sense

15:20.49
Bevo

15:22.45
Mad Dog
Yes, exactly.

15:22.70
Chibbs
Oh yeah, they do want to get away. I want to get away, I want to fly away. Yeah, I think their spirit was broken fairly in the first few years.

15:30.41
Mad Dog
Fair enough. Fair enough.

15:31.37
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah.

15:33.41
Mad Dog
You know I have to say it.

15:33.49
Chibbs
ah Yeah, I know.

15:34.73
Mad Dog
Yeah.

15:36.24
Chibbs
I always think whenever I hear just fly, I instantly just go to Chopper, where he's sitting there with um Vince Colosimo's character, and the guy's like, what's wrong? He's like, no, I'm flying, Chop.

15:47.67
Chibbs
I'm flying.

15:48.23
Mad Dog
I'm flying.

15:50.20
gav
a Fuck.

15:53.00
Chibbs
There. Flying for a human is funny as well. because it Also, do you think ah he he would fly by flapping his arms really hard or in a Superman style like to shoot stuff?

16:03.97
gav
I reckon he's got a jetpack asshole. I reckon he's just gonna fart so hard.

16:07.45
Bevo
I just, I hope he he flies like yeah you've seen a pelican try and take off off the water.

16:11.74
Chibbs
Yeah.

16:11.82
gav
Yeah.

16:12.21
Bevo
A lot of effort.

16:13.57
Chibbs
It's so much effort. yeah Also, just take off from dry land. I feel like the water is sort of sucking you to its surface.

16:19.41
Bevo
What a drag.

16:20.62
gav
Yeah, that's, it's it's harder for sure.

16:21.15
Chibbs
Yeah. So much fucking drag. You got to just get out of the water, run a bit, and then you'll, you know.

16:25.13
Bevo
That's why, you know, when you're on the road, you're driving on the road and there's like a pigeon on the ground and you're like, just fly away.

16:28.85
gav
And then take, any like go yeah and then you run them over.

16:33.74
Bevo
And they just kind of walk casually. the way we are

16:35.60
Chibbs
Yeah. Maybe it's real hard.

16:37.95
Bevo
yeah It's a lot of effort, I believe.

16:38.41
Chibbs
Maybe it's really hard. Yeah. ah not for Not for Lenny though. He's all degrees for flying around where he wants.

16:46.42
Bevo
One, 180, you name it.

16:47.69
Chibbs
Yeah. yeah

16:49.28
gav

16:51.72
Chibbs
Verse two, let's go and see the stars, the Milky Way, or even Mars, where it could just be ours.

17:01.14
gav
ah

17:02.84
Mad Dog
That sucks.

17:03.73
Chibbs

17:14.96
gav
Oh, okay.

17:15.67
Bevo
He's saying, saying, saying, saying, let's go and see the stars, the Milky Way or even Mars is kind of like saying, let's go and see the country, uh, Europe or even England.

17:16.37
gav
Definitely, definitely, a definitely a better verse. It's a better verse.

17:28.10
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is.

17:28.56
gav
yeah ah

17:30.66
Chibbs
Mars is within the Milky Way, right?

Mad Dog
Yeah.

17:33.25
gav
yeah yeah

17:33.42
Chibbs
Okay, yeah. And stars, I don't think you don't need, it's actually probably pretty dangerous to get close to a star, I would say.

17:40.81
gav
yeah

17:40.88
Mad Dog
Especially the sun.

17:42.37
gav
You'd be in a lot of trouble long before you got there, I reckon. Yeah.

17:45.08
Chibbs
That's true.

17:45.34
Bevo
Fade into the sun. You'll be blinded long before you hit the sun.

17:52.25
gav
Maybe, maybe that's what this song is about.

17:52.79
Chibbs
and and have And have all types of cancers from the radiation.

17:55.85
Bevo
Radiation, yeah.

17:57.18

18:06.87
Mad Dog
Evan's gate!

18:07.61
Chibbs
All right. All right. A charming little cult.

18:16.51
Chibbs
Yeah, I can't remember. It was one of the good comments. And so they they were the ones that all had the same Nikes or whatever.

18:23.94
gav
the same shoes, the same nikes, yeah, yeah.

18:25.39
Mad Dog
It's crazy, creepy looking.

18:26.57
Chibbs
I like that they were like a sponsored cult.

18:28.34
gav
Oh, I actually, I saw a post on Reddit the other day, theyre um their email address is still active.

18:31.53
Mad Dog
Spots and gold.

18:36.00
Chibbs
I like that you're just traveling Reddit.

18:38.37
gav
Their email address is is still active.

18:38.82
Chibbs
What are you talking about? Their emails? Who's checking it?

18:41.01
gav
Yeah, someone someone emailed them. There's apparently two active members of the cult that didn't get on the spaceship.

18:47.58
Mad Dog
Oh!

18:48.62
gav
And they still reply to the email.

18:48.82
Chibbs
Are they kind of about it?

18:50.07
Bevo
choice or...

18:51.88
gav
They were, you know, they chose to stay behind and spread the good word. Um, but yeah. So my point is let's go and see the stars. Uh, let's fade into the sun, let your spirit fly.

19:02.72
gav
It all sounds like you might be dead when these things are happening.

19:05.32
Chibbs
Yeah, Lenny's killed, Lenny's killed them.

19:08.39
gav
I think Lenny's trying to convince you to join this space cult and kill yourself.

19:11.90
Bevo
Hm.

19:13.31
gav
That's where I think I assume he is.

19:13.35
Chibbs
lenny I think Lenny Kravitz could be a cult leader.

19:18.11
Mad Dog
Yeah, 100%.

19:18.16
Chibbs
Yeah.

19:19.70
Mad Dog
I love the image of fading into the sun, like just stuff kind of starfishing into.

19:20.00
gav
Yeah.

19:24.18
Bevo
I'm turning the ash.

19:26.82
Chibbs
It's someone, someone sit, someone sit the fuck on the fucking man in the Hubble. And they're just watching.

19:33.49
Mad Dog
Watching you float away.

19:33.66
Chibbs
They're watching their specs fly towards the sun.

19:35.37
gav
Stop. Don't get any closer.

19:38.93

19:52.67
Mad Dog
Oh, shit.

19:52.79
gav
Just for a little fun.

19:57.51
Chibbs
I like that he has yes an orgasm at the end of every verse as well.

19:57.58
gav
Where we are one.

19:57.78
Mad Dog
oh

20:00.49

Can you can you play that again? Just that last thing on the dragon.

20:12.91
Chibbs
yeah

20:15.42
gav
No one in the history of music has ever put a little bit of stank on the word dragonfly before.

20:19.85
Chibbs
yeah yeah

20:20.21
Bevo
that yeah

20:20.78
gav
That is

20:21.25
Bevo
a clear one

20:21.53
Chibbs
dragonla

20:22.55
Bevo
The confidence to know that you've already used the word fly in your rhymes and then used to a bunch of other rhymes with fly and then come back to fly.

20:26.52
Chibbs
yeah

20:26.88
Mad Dog
Yeah.

20:30.13
Chibbs
with fly, dragonfly.

20:32.73
gav
i a fla

20:32.82
Bevo
But it's the conviction that tells it.

20:34.85
gav
That's good, I mean you've got to you've got to respect it

20:34.95
Mad Dog
He just didn't give a fuck did he? Yeah.

20:37.26
Chibbs
what it the Is it the Ernest Hemingway quote that's like every first draft is ah is shit? Like every first draft is shit.

20:46.85
Bevo
Oh, I thought it was the opposite. It was like always go with the first idea.

20:50.97
Chibbs
No, he set the first draft. So it's like, he he apparently would have a note up in his office that said the first draft is always shit. So not, so you weren't so hard on yourself when you wrote the first draft and be like, this is shit.

21:04.62
Chibbs
And don't worry about it. You go first draft's always shit. Yeah. You got to go back and make it better.

21:08.13
gav
Yeah. I love, I love that. I love that logic.

21:10.49
Chibbs
Yeah. Um, Lenny didn't have that note up.

21:14.05
gav
but

21:15.61
Chibbs
Lenny nor heard that.

21:16.26
gav
It did not write this song in Hemingway's 1923 Paris office.

21:19.32
Bevo
Oh, actually you're fully right. The first draft of anything is shit. Ernest Hemingway.

21:23.78
Chibbs
There you go. Yeah.

21:24.26
Bevo
That's the quote.

21:24.55
Chibbs
Yeah.

gav
Oh, is that the direct quote?

21:26.41
Chibbs
Literally.

Bevo
Yeah.

21:27.05
Chibbs
That's literally the quiet. Yeah.

21:28.10

Chibbs
No, na no, no, no.

21:30.70
Bevo
Yeah.

21:31.54
Chibbs
Hemiway was a fucking animal of woman, woman, beta alcohol.

gav
Oh no, no, that's verified.

21:36.18
Chibbs
ishamman Yes.

21:37.36
gav
Did you, did you ever read that thing about how there was a Hemingway was on a plane that crashed and and, and then they thought he was dead.

21:42.26
Mad Dog
Are we talking about a resurrection here?

21:43.54
Chibbs
Yeah.

21:45.02
gav
And then like three days later, he just wandered out of the jungle with like a whole thing of bananas slung over his shoulder and half a bottle of rum or whatever.

21:50.75
Chibbs
Yeah. Yeah. He was pissed.

21:56.60
gav
Uh, essentially, yeah.

21:56.65
Chibbs
He's Jesus.

21:59.01
Mad Dog
yeah

21:59.28
Chibbs
The glow is a madman.

21:59.31
gav
Hemingway might be Jesus.

Chibbs
Didn't he live in the fucking Florida Keys and just drink and fish?

22:02.84
gav
Yeah. Yeah.

22:05.10
Chibbs
And did he shoot himself?

22:07.08
gav

22:08.34
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

22:08.54
gav
In the 60s, I think he killed himself. um um just I've just started reading um to have and to have not as well from him.

22:11.65
Chibbs
yeah

22:17.02
gav
And it starts off, it's just, it starts off him trying to like smuggle some humans out of Cuba.

22:22.35
Chibbs
Great.

22:22.84
gav
And then there's just a, they all just get shot on the street a minute later. It's a fucking wild start to a book.

22:26.42
Chibbs
Yeah.

22:29.98
gav
Guy knew what he was doing. He knew what he was doing.

22:31.24

Bevo
I'm going to steer us back on track for a second. again

Chibbs
It's just his preferred surface.

26:19.96
gav
It's not gay... It's not gay if you think there's still a little bit left in there and you gotta just like, lick it up. Just make sure you get all of it. And, you know, just just just make sure you're not wasting any of it.

Chibbs
Yeah.

Mad Dog
yes

27:24.07
Chibbs
yeah

27:24.68

Why?

27:26.37
Bevo
It's something disappointing about like him being so confident and and like big dick energy and, but he's also like, and but he's like, I don and need to get away from this rockstar thing.

27:33.45
Chibbs
He's confident man. He's probably got a big dick.

27:40.34
Mad Dog
Yes. ah

27:43.08
Chibbs
I don't think it is the Rockstar thing. I think he wants to continue to be a Rockstar.

27:47.83
gav
transcend onto a different plane of reality.

27:47.86
Chibbs
He just doesn't want, he just doesn't want her around.

Bevo
very much about you can put you choose your own adventure i think is the uh yeah okay

27:54.10
gav
Yeah.

27:56.89
gav
I guess I picture him becoming some sort of like otherworldly alien rock star who died in a cult with, with Nike's on.

27:58.40
Chibbs
Yeah.

28:05.09
Mad Dog
Right, because he wants to go into the cosmos and yeah.

28:20.42
Chibbs

Ha ha, he's half white.

28:48.74
gav
Oh my god.

28:49.06
Chibbs

28:49.32
Mad Dog
yes it

28:54.49
Chibbs
I know what I said at the start of the song. I want to get away now. And then it's like, I want to fly away with you.

29:00.05
gav
Oh god.

29:00.73
Bevo
Oh yeah, with you baby, yeah.

29:02.40
Chibbs
Yeah, of course with you. what No, no, no. I'm not going to get away from you. um That's not why I'm screaming it over and over again.

29:05.63
Mad Dog
yeah

29:07.80
gav
ah

29:09.00
Mad Dog
Yeah, it's kind of like he's trying to save save the argument like, oh, I met with you, baby.

29:15.46
Chibbs
yeah yeah no seriously maybe I love you and then it's and then it gets to the end it's like yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it's just like oh really I can come yeah yeah yeah yeah ye yeah ah it was released on the ah it was released on the 11th of May 1998 it's

29:15.96
Mad Dog
Yeah. Yeah.

29:24.91
Mad Dog
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

29:25.72
Bevo
that's Later he goes, sorry baby, there's only one room on the spaceship for one.

29:26.16
Mad Dog
Totally cool. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool.

29:33.83
Mad Dog
Yeah.

29:38.97
gav
wow

29:39.03
Mad Dog
Thought it was earlier than that.

29:40.99
Chibbs
Yeah, it's written by Lenny, sole soul songwriter. No one helped him.

29:47.45
Mad Dog
No AI back then, guys.

29:49.30
Chibbs
that ah It emerged apparently after Lenny was testing an amp out that he brought into the studio and just started going through like A, C, G, D, just strumming chords.

30:01.49
Chibbs
And then went, fucking get a mic on this amp ASAP cunt to the engineer.

30:05.19
gav
Wow. Ha ha ha.

30:07.59
Mad Dog
I've got something.

30:09.14
Chibbs
and started and started recording and got the riff.

30:11.05
gav
just letting a rip yeah

30:12.43
Chibbs
But apparently it took a little while, like the whole song didn't come together. He had the guitar riff and everything sorted and the chords.

30:17.51
Bevo
You just couldn't come up with rhymes.

30:19.81
Chibbs
But yeah, the lyrics, the lyrics were taking a while to really, to sort nail down. So by the time he finished writing it, ah he'd already turned in his complete album to his record label.

30:34.43
Chibbs
And he ended up having this fly away as like a, you know, like a B-side. It's like, I'll do, I'll just keep this and I could release it sometime. But he showed one of his mates and his mates like, um if you don't get that on the album, you're a fucking idiot.

30:53.01
Chibbs
Yeah.

30:53.28
gav
ah

30:53.53
Chibbs
So he had to go to the record label and be like, I'm begging you. Can we put another track on it? They're like, it's done. It's getting fucking pressed. Like if the whole thing is finished and he's like, no, trust me.

31:04.40
Chibbs
And then I imagine it was like a back to the future situation of like, listen to this.

31:09.78
gav
yeah

31:10.00
Chibbs
And then he played the song to the people at the record label and they went, okay. All right. Yeah.

31:16.61
gav
yeah yeah why why wasn't Why wasn't that on the first cut, you fuckhead?

31:17.29
Chibbs
I'll stop the presses. Yeah, stop the presses. Yeah. Apparently it was like a big comeback for Lenny. His career had fallen off since like 93 or something.

31:31.68
Chibbs
Like apparently, yeah, I don't know.

31:31.87
gav
See, this is the I didn't realize that he had a career much before this. I didn't realize just how big he was.

31:36.14
Mad Dog
That's my favorite.

31:37.90
Chibbs
It was a big deal.

31:38.51
gav
Like, yeah. I i think my knowledge of him started here.

31:40.32
Mad Dog
Okay.

31:41.24
Bevo
So when was, um when was Are You Gonna Go My Way?

31:45.83
Chibbs
I think that's like around then.

31:46.07
Bevo
Is that this?

31:47.03
Chibbs
I think that's probably 93-ish.

31:48.68
Bevo
And then his other one, he did it, he did something with Slash back in the day, Always On The Run, that's a good song.

31:52.54
Chibbs
Did he? Yeah, okay.

31:54.30
gav
Always on the run was 1991. Are you going to go my way was 93 as well.

31:57.94
Bevo
Yeah, right.

31:58.64
Chibbs
93, there you go.

31:58.94
gav
Fly away wasn't until 98.

32:01.17
Chibbs
Yeah.

32:01.22
Bevo
Yeah, okay.

32:01.24
gav
American woman, 99.

32:02.94
Chibbs
And what did he have? There was another one that, am I going to see your face again or whatever?

32:04.59
gav
All right.

32:06.43
Bevo
Nah, that's the angels.

32:06.91
gav
It ain't over till it's over.

32:08.20
Chibbs
It ain't over until it's over. Great song.

32:09.50
gav
That was from 1991.

32:12.25
Chibbs
That's a great song.

32:13.88
gav
Yeah. Well, that's not on the pot, is it?

32:15.31
Bevo
da did' do Can I

32:18.18
Chibbs
Yeah.

32:19.83
Mad Dog
Oh, that one.

32:20.12
Chibbs
yeah

32:20.27
gav
Yeah, i think I think it's one of those things that like, I didn't know that song existed before I heard this song.

32:21.26
Mad Dog
ay do it own yeahmate so Yeah.

32:25.66
gav
You know what I mean?

32:28.04
Chibbs
I vaguely remember that as a kid, that song.

32:30.71
gav
Yeah, fair enough.

32:31.21
Chibbs
I think it's a string arrangement in it. yeah It's, ah know I embedded in my brain somewhere.

32:38.98
gav
ah

32:39.77
Chibbs
Yeah.

32:40.48
Bevo
I'm just going to give you a quick spoiler later in the episode.

32:41.08
Mad Dog
Yeah, it exists in my brain. Yeah.

32:43.42
Chibbs
Yeah.

32:43.68
Bevo
I'm currently bulking YouTube comments because they're all fucking funny. so

32:48.26
Chibbs
Okay, great.

32:48.83
gav
ah

32:48.94
Mad Dog
okay

32:49.34
Bevo
gra that

32:50.87
Chibbs
ah Yeah, so i I was trying to work out Lenny Kravitz's career based on that because he was so big in the early 90s, and then he had this little comeback for 98, 99.

33:08.10
Chibbs
Like American Woman, he did for the Austin Powers 2 soundtrack.

33:09.94
Bevo
Austin Powers, I remember that.

33:11.12
gav
Yeah, I reckon awesome powers too.

33:11.49
Bevo
Yeah.

33:12.04
Chibbs
Yeah.

33:12.53
Mad Dog
That was big.

33:12.73
Chibbs
Just remember he got Heather Graham in the the video for it as well.

33:16.80
gav
I reckon the Austin Powers soundtracks as a whole probably kick so much fucking ass.

33:16.94
Chibbs
so

33:20.25
Chibbs
Oh yeah, 100%.

33:21.51
gav
Beautiful Strange, who is a...

33:21.93
Chibbs
But Beautiful Stranger by Madonna is actually a good song.

33:22.87
gav
um Yeah, that's a good fucking song, man.

33:23.66
Bevo
I love that song.

33:26.26
Chibbs
um Yeah, that Austin Powell's music is unreal.

33:29.78
gav
Yeah, yeah.

33:29.92
Bevo
Yeah. Even, even Austin's band that like BBC one, BBC two.

33:30.69
gav
That's what I mean. i'm I'm...

33:34.68
Chibbs
Yeah, you got Burt Bacharach on there.

33:34.82
Bevo
That's a great one. Yeah.

33:38.50
gav
Yeah, fuck it. That's me. I reckon I'd never really thought about it before, but I'm gonna look up those fucking original soundtracks. I reckon they kick heaps of ass.

33:44.50
Bevo
Yeah, hell yeah, they're great.

33:45.91
Chibbs
the um ah So what I worked out with his career is basically his entire fucking career has just been to write rock songs for TV commercials and fuck chicks.

33:56.30
Bevo
He was in um Hunger Games too, remember?

33:56.78
Chibbs
That's, he is in the hunk of games, which is such a bizarre casting decision.

33:58.55
gav
He is in Hunger Games, yep. Yeah.

34:03.90
Chibbs
He is good in it, but you go, don't let any Kravitz, let any Kravitz do it.

34:04.32
gav
Yeah. Yeah.

34:10.17
Bevo
and

34:10.62
Chibbs
He is good in it.

34:11.56
gav
Oh,

34:11.88
Chibbs
So he smashed them. Two Aussie, oh, three Aussie birds.

34:18.96
Mad Dog
Ah, who?

34:19.35
gav
ah good on him.

34:21.17
Chibbs
Kylie Minogue.

34:24.05
Chibbs
So he was married to Lisa Benet. um And then divorced, went straight to Kylie Minogue. Then dated some French, yeah, and then dated some French chick.

34:32.17
Mad Dog
Minaud?

34:35.73
Chibbs
Went to Imbruglia.

34:37.47
gav
Oh shit!

34:38.39
Mad Dog
Fair dink!

34:39.35
Chibbs
Yeah. Left her, went to Adriana Lima, the Victoria's Secret Brazilian model.

34:42.79
gav
Never heard of him.

34:46.35
Chibbs
then engaged to Nicole Kidman in the early 2000s.

34:51.30
gav
Well, he's just heated up, he's heated up top three.

34:51.50
Mad Dog
get the hell out of here.

34:55.54
gav
He's gone, you know what? I'll take your top three.

34:57.16
Chibbs
Yep, yep.

34:58.80
gav
Fuck.

34:59.57
Chibbs
Yeah, there you go.

35:00.86
Mad Dog
Wow, he's really putting it out there.

35:03.11
gav
I'm torn.

35:03.78
Chibbs
Loves it, loves the Aussie shoot.

35:05.77
Mad Dog
Yeah, okay.

35:06.21
gav
I was trying to get Natalie and Brawley a joke. Sorry about that. That wasn't good.

35:08.79
Chibbs
Yeah, that's good. That's not even her song.

35:11.42
gav
Oh, it isn't either. It's a cover. Fuck.

35:12.90
Chibbs
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

35:14.42
gav
All right.

35:15.74
Chibbs
Let's move on.

35:17.02
gav
yeah

35:17.04
Chibbs
it's pretty It's produced by Lenny Kravitz, written and produced by Kravitz.

35:19.88
gav
Okay. The production's really good.

35:22.58
Chibbs
The tone is fucking sick.

35:23.00
gav
The production's...

35:24.54
Bevo
Oh, and it's like one of the few times where slap bass is kind of cool, I think.

35:25.22
Chibbs
That engineer that went in there and dropped that mic on that hip, he placed it very well.

35:25.76
gav
Yeah.

35:35.72
Chibbs
It's that filter on the slap bass.

35:37.11
gav
Yes.

35:37.62
Bevo
Yeah.

35:37.79
gav
Yes.

35:38.72
Chibbs
And it's not, so slap bass can be ridiculous or it needs to be so scaled back to be even mildly listenable.

35:38.96
gav
The production of this song is fucking excellent. Yeah.

35:42.94
Bevo
Yeah.

35:50.19
Bevo
yeah

35:51.10
Chibbs
It's for bass players. The only reason there is slap bass is for other bass players to be like, oh, that's cool.

35:56.15
gav
Yeah.

35:56.67
Chibbs
but But this one, this one is just that real silky like that.

36:03.69
Chibbs
And go, in the yeah yeah

36:04.66
gav
yeah

36:04.72
Bevo
yeah yeah good punctuation to the the rest of it

36:09.17
Chibbs

Chibbs
Lenny Kravitz, what do you think is worth in 2024, Mad Dog?

48:57.65
Mad Dog
Well, I'm assuming drugs and heaps of them.

49:02.27
Chibbs
Yeah.

49:02.83
gav
ah True, true, true, true.

49:04.42
Chibbs
Okay.

49:05.19
Mad Dog
Um, so that, I reckon he's put about 20 mil up each nose. Um, fuck it. 30 mil.

49:14.43
Chibbs
Yeah.

49:15.39
Mad Dog
Yeah.

49:15.75
Chibbs
Gav.

49:16.55
gav
i was i shit you know I was sitting there going, it's got to be 30 to 40. And then you came in hot with 30.

49:21.38
Mad Dog
Yeah. Yeah.

49:23.14
gav
I feel like unless, he might be one of those sneaky, I feel like it could go either way. He's either one of those ones that's put way more up each nose than you realize, or he's got businesses you don't know about, but I'm still going 40.

49:34.97
Mad Dog
yeah yeah

49:35.27
Bevo
Yeah.

49:36.34
gav
I'm still going 40.

49:38.29
Chibbs
Okay. Bye bye.

49:39.24
Bevo
i I watched a video today on YouTube of Howard Stern talking to Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins and Howard Stern is like, how much did you make from Nirvana?

49:44.99
Chibbs
yet.

49:48.76
Bevo
And Dave's like, oh, and he's like 50 million. He's like, no, no way. And he's like 20 million. He's like, no, no way. And he goes 12 million. He's like, yeah, maybe around there. So that's Nirvana money.

50:01.78
gav
Fuck, yeah.

50:01.84
Mad Dog
Yeah, okay.

50:01.86
Bevo
And even Taylor Hawkins was like, fuck, that's pretty good. Like, so that I feel like the net worth stuff is not as like accurate.

50:09.07
Chibbs
Oh, it's definitely bullshit.

50:09.48
Bevo
isn't it

50:10.13
Chibbs
I was listening to the Always Sunny podcast, and they all go, yeah, they all go, let's look up our net worths on the internet, because they're like, it's all such absolute bullshit.

50:12.51
Bevo
Yeah.

50:13.36
gav
Yep, yep. Great fucking podcast, by the way.

50:19.74
Bevo
yeah

50:22.45
Chibbs
And then they're giving each other shit because it's like, Rob McElhenney's worth so much more than like, you know,

50:23.04
gav
that Because of the soccer team.

50:29.99
Chibbs
No, I think it's just, I don't know, but it's like, they're like, it is so fucking far from the truth.

50:36.09
Bevo
yeah yeah yeah

50:36.73
Chibbs
It's, yeah.

50:37.14
gav
That's so funny.

50:37.60
Bevo
anyway

50:37.67
Chibbs
So like none of this is real. I think we've had, like what we have had like Collie on before, like his net worth is on the internet and he's just like, it's not fucking, it's not, not right.

50:49.21
Bevo
another Another Dave Grohl story is that there's a making of the pretender video and yeah making the pretender video and um the the director's like, I want you to smash this guitar.

50:49.51
Chibbs
I don't know where they pull this shit from.

50:49.72
gav
That's not it.

50:52.81
Chibbs
He's got a baby.

50:56.76
gav
Ha!

51:00.30
Bevo
and He's like, this is like an $800 guitar.

51:02.86
gav
Ha ha ha!

51:02.92
Bevo
And it's like, dude, I think you'll be right. But apparently not.

51:06.39
Chibbs
There.

51:06.76
Bevo
So knowing all that, I'm going to guess low. I'm going to say 15 mil.

51:11.44
Chibbs
Okay. um I would have been with you there until you go, how many times have you heard? this on a fucking truck commercial.

51:24.49
Chibbs
How many times do you hear the riff of fucking, are you going to go my way in every movie, commercial, everything?

51:31.61
gav
Hmm Respect the fuck out of that respect the fuck out of it.

51:31.68
Chibbs
I don't think he's made his money on ah anything but selling out as much as he possibly can.

51:37.20
Mad Dog
100%.

51:37.71
Chibbs
And I love it.

51:55.98
gav
I'm glad I'm glad that he's worth that much.

51:56.68
Chibbs
If you were that big, if you had like, you know, maybe two albums with fucking 10 singles that were number one or top 10 worldwide hits from 91 to 98, you were making coin.

gav
Every song Chibs has ever released has been like a weird fucking version of a song that actually was big in the time before this.

gav
That would have been good if Chibs didn't get his fucking, if he wasn't the only person in the world he remembered it.
