Dave's 5 Hot Takes - Episode 10

Join musician and semi-pro comedian, Dave Barnes, as he explores some interesting perspectives on popular music on the first episode of 5 Hot Takes! On this episode, Dave covers hot takes on Red Hot Chili Peppers, Belinda Carlisle, Phil Collins and more! Listen now and enjoy!
This episodes's hot take are:

Hot Take 1: The basslines to “You Give Love A Bad Name” by Bon Jovi and “Heaven Is A Place On Earth” by Belinda Carlisle are almost identical.

Hot Take 2: Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Soul to Squeeze” eventually devolves into Anthony Kiedis singing literal gibberish, and it still sounds good.

Hot Take 3: Dave misses the more eclectic and experimental albums from iconic artists like Stevie Wonder, Elton John, and The Doobie Brothers.

Hot Take 4: Phil Collins has one of Dave’s favorite career stories of all-time.

Hot Take 5: George Michael’s “Freedom”, Jeff Buckley’s “Last Goodbye”, and Vampire Weekend’s “Harmony Hall” all share a very specific rhythm at different points from different instruments in each song.
