Nine People Can't Come Up With A Name For This Episode


Today is a very special episode of Ignorant Bliss with Dave and Adam and Leah. Why is that? There's no Dave. Or Leah. Its complete and total ANARCHY!

Episode 15- Nine People Dont Know What To Call This Episode.mp3 - Josh And Adam And James

This week, Adam had special guest hosts James Higgins and Josh VanHooydonk on the show, and the change was hardly noticeable. Josh and James would also like all you lovely people who use Facebook to know about this group.

The Most Listened To This Week was pretty all over the place. Unfortunately, time constraints meant that only Adam's got played (he has that kind of power).

Josh's Most Listened To: Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Die- 4 Year Strong
James' Most Listened To: Love Graffiti- Afternoon Zero
Adam's Most Listened To: Cola Bottle Baby- Edwin Birdsong

The episode this week was different than the other episodes (other than the complete lack of the two other people in the show's name). Not a lot of time was spent talking about movies. The guys definitely talked about music a fair bit. Adam decided that this episode would be about sampling in music, both in rap music, and in other genres. Josh was quite the font of knowledge about rap music, and provided valuable information about current rap music.

Adam talked a whole bunch about artists that have sampled (for example M.I.A., Vanilla Ice, Daft Punk, Justice, and many more), and he also talks about the songs that they have sampled.

James and Adam reminisce of seeing Say Anything at the Vans Warped Tour last summer, and James offered up a delightful story about homelessness in the Detroit area while attending another Say Anything concert, and Josh spoke of elderly rage outside of a concert hall waiting for an Atreyu concert.

Adam played a bevy of songs on this episode. Wonder what they are? Wonder no more!
Sunny- Boney M.
Cola Bottle Baby- Edwin Birdsong
Mathemateam- Mathematikal
Stand On The Word- The Joubert Singers
I Love You More- George Duke

Also, the song that Will Smith used in "Wild Wild West" was "I Wish" by Stevie Wonder.
Also, check out PartyBen. He's worth it.

Adam spoke quite a bit about this band. They're absolutely fantastic, he says. They are a band that has the largest amount of the most recognizable disco songs ever. They have been the inspiration for artists to sample or come up with ideas based on their songs, and Adam can't say enough good things about them.

Video Of The Week time!
Check it out!



Here's that video that James and Josh were talking about.
And here are those very very cute cat videos that Adam was talking about. Also, check out this lady. Will you ever be as cool as her?

The Song For The Lovers this week is a bit of a mystery. E-mail ignorantbliss@live.ca with your answer to this question. "What song (and band) samples this song?" Don't look it up. Use your ears. The song is: I Love You More by George Duke.
