The song with the best video of all time? A song with lots of Grammy awards under its belt? Inspired by a track about a train. This is Lonely Boy by The Black Keys.

Talking about the single-not-single The Views From the Afternoon with my friend CJ. I recommend watching the video for this song on Youtube before listening to this episode. The Buddha story will make more sense to you!

We had the International Women's Day this week and nothing more appropriate than telling the story behind an anthem of woman empowerment! "Woman" is a track by Karen O's project with Danger Mouse, Lux Prima, which is a masterpiece in itself.

Looking into "Come On Over" is looking into the history of Royal Blood. This episode contains several different demos of this track and it will make you realise Royal Blood are doing just fine without a guitar! Also, you need to check out the acoustic live version I dug out from back in 2011. I can't stop listening to it and I think you'll have it on repeat too!

We went a bit philosophical this week and took a deep look at the lyrics of Vienna by Billy Joel. Ever wondered why this song is called Vienna in the first place?
