Today's Tedious Link:Utah Saints, Something Good
Today's Transcript:Feeling good is what you'd hope to be if you'd just spent the weekend at a health farm. Health, wealth and happiness are what most people desire in life. Life is the maximum sentence in the penal system. System Of A Down are an American band whose best known song is called 'Chop Suey'. Chop suey is something you'd expect to find on the menu at a Chinese restuarant, along with spring rolls and crispy duck. Duck is what you have to do a lot of in the sport of sailing. Sailing is something we all did when we went to Bangor, on the Menai Straits. Straits, combined with corners, are what make up the design of all race circuits. Circuits of a different type are associated with the world of electronics. In electrical wiring you get wires that are different colours, like brown or blue. The word 'blue' is made up of four letters, which is the same amount as the American state of Utah, which links to Utah Saints and 'What Can You Do For Me'.
(Track begins to play)Chris: Woah, woah, woah, woah. What's this?
Dave: No, no, no.
Chris: What's this?
Dave: This isn't the original.
Chris: Not the original.
Matt: It's the Drumsound and Bassline Smith remix.
Chris: What did you just say?
Matt: Drumsound and Bassline Smith remix. It's a new version, yeah.
Chris: I don't know if this is the new version.
Matt: No, it's definitely new. The original's a bit more, "Utah Saints!"
Chris: I know...but Utah Saints remix it every year. It's like Paul McCartney's 'Wonderful Christmastime' coming out every 12 months.
Dave: We don't like change.
Chris: What year, Dave?
Dave: Errr....92, wasn't it? I think.
Aled: Well, it says 91 on here.
Dave: 91, then. 'Something Good' I think was 92. Was this before 'Something Good'?
Matt: I think it might have been, yeah.
Chris: I'm gonna have a look for it, Dave.
Dave: Just call it 91. I'm just gonna have a little check here now. Because we don't like change, and we don't like modern versions of stuff. Not in a classic music feature.
Chris: I've got Roxette, 'Joyride'...
Dave: No...that was 91, definitely.
Chris: Scorpions, 'Wind Of Change'...
Dave: Dreadful record.
Chris: Right Said Fred, 'I'm Too Sexy'...
Dave: Nope.
Aled: Got it!
Chris: You have?
Aled: Yep.
Dave: It was...it was August 91.
Aled: This looks like the same...
Matt: It's the same duration.
Chris: Yeah, you've given us exactly the same track. Ha ha ha! Should we just play it anyway? Alright.
(Track begins to play again)Chris: I've got 'Something Good'? But I don't have 'What Can You Do For Me'.
Dave: Well, should we have the original of 'Something Good' instead of this?
Chris: I can get that on if you want.
Dave: I think that's probably better, don't you think?
Chris: Yeah. 'Something Good' is still a good track.
Dave: Yeah.
(Track stops)Chris: That was great! That was Utah Saints.
Dom: That was great.
Chris: And here's another track from Utah Saints! You ready?
Dave: Yep.
Chris: But this is still a wicked track. Alright? If you've never heard this before, turn it up. Trust me, you're gonna love it. It's a Utah Saints montage!
Flaws:Dave stated afterwards that he thought System Of A Down may actually be Armenian. Singer Serj and drummer John are Lebanese, bassist Shavo is Armenian, and guitarist Daron is American - so he was partially right. This aside from the issues with the track itself!
