  • BettySoo Loves the SUNDAYS “Summertime”

    BettySoo Loves the SUNDAYS “Summertime”
    Mar 2 2022
    Just like you described this really lovely, kind of girly voice. And then what she was saying was not, and I was like, Oh, I am into this. -- BettySoo on The SUNDAYS "Summertime" Think you don’t know The SUNDAYS? Chances are, if you listen to adult album alternative radio, you’ve heard them. Texas singer-songwriter BettySoo shares her favorite one hit wonder, The SUNDAYS song “Summertime,” with its charming vocal delivery yet darkly subversive lyrics.  So that's so interesting how, you know, different songs and albums come into people's lives at different times, but the ones that stick around...it's like, why does this particular album or song or band stick with me? On a deeper note, BettySoo and Sloane Spencer get into what makes certain songs, albums, and artists irrevocably linked to someone’s memories at a specific point in their life, no matter the quality or popularity of the music. Plus, they discuss the ups and downs of musicians’ decisions to no longer produce music or be a public figure and how it affects the fans. Without an external kind of exoskeleton of structure, it's really hard to know how to prioritize things. Known for life hacking support for her creative friends, BettySoo has to be so organized that she designs and sells her very own planner system, the Work Play Every Day planner, perfect for planning out Sundays and beyond.  Links BettySoo.com Nobody's Girl (feat.

AI TRANSCRIPT Sloane Spencer: [00:00:00] All Sloane Spencer with you. You found us at our new podcast called One-Hit History Today, we're talking with BettySoo, a Texas songwriter who not only has her own solo albums that you need to check out in a couple of very cool singles out recently, as well also has a trio called Nobody's Girl, you can find them at We Are Nobody's Girl Dot Com and a number of other projects and live residencies, online info, all kinds of cool stuff. Welcome. [00:00:26][26.4] BettySoo: [00:00:27] Thank you. Good to be here. [00:00:28][1.3] Sloane Spencer: [00:00:29] My pleasure. So what in history is where we talk to music folks about their favorite one hit wonders, and often it leads to some interesting little associations, so I'm looking forward to hearing which one is your favorite. [00:00:43][14.5] BettySoo: [00:00:45] Well, it wasn't a number one single, but it was a hit single in the late 90s, and it's a song called Summertime by the Sundaes. [00:00:53][7.9] Sloane Spencer: [00:00:54] Oh, so I've been working in Triple J radio for the last many years, and this is still a staple of AAA radio playlists. When I pull up the sundaes, it's going to come up this one, and here's where the story ends from. Their first record are going to be the top two in those playlists. Absolutely. One you'll recognize. Even if you say, I don't know the sundaes, I don't know that song. Oh yeah. Pull it up. You'll immediately like, Oh yeah, one that sounds like it's wonderful Christmas time in the intro. It's that song [00:01:23][28.9] BettySoo: [00:01:26] I [00:01:26][0.0] Sloane Spencer: [00:01:26] never thought about, but that's really nice. Those first few notes. Here's where the story ends off of reading. Writing Arithmetic came out in 1990, so that was kind of their intro to the U.S. market and so still a big well-known tune. But as far as like charts go and you know, my definition of a hit is, is this a popularly well-known song within any subgroup? You know,

  • LadyCouch Loves You…and Tag Team “Whoomp! There It Is”

    LadyCouch Loves You…and Tag Team “Whoomp! There It Is”
    Feb 16 2022
    "Whoomp! There It Is!" is talking about their particular art scene as a whole, even though it’s more T&A based.  -- Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson, co-founders of jam band LadyCouch on their favorite one hit wonder by Tag Team The conversation bounces around so much between Sloane Spencer and the co-founders of LadyCouch (Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson) that who knows where it is while they talk about their favorite one hit wonder from 1993. But the Nashville duo finally lands on “Whoomp There It Is” by Tag Team. But don’t confuse it with 95 South’s “Whoot There It Is”, though the trio chats about the differences and similarities between the two.  My philosophy is ‘hit’ is however you want to define it. It’s whatever it means for the conversation. -- Sloane Spencer, host of One Hit History, on how loosely the podcast defines "hit" Listen to see how the strip club scene in Atlanta in the 90s was essential to the music scene, the unlikely way the band got their party song on the streets, and how many musicians' favorite one hit wonders come outside of the genre in which they perform and write.  That recent Geico commercial has taken me back to the spring of ‘93.  -- Allen Thompson (LadyCouch co-founder) Links Blackbird Records label LadyCouch (6-12 members rotating, core is Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson) One Hit History podcast playlist of show guests One Hit History playlist of one hit wonders Bonus episodes, outtakes, and sneak peeks Music Mentions The Future Looks Fine LadyCouch “Whoomp There It Is” “Whoot, There It Is” “Who Let the Dogs Out” “Ring my Bell”  Terence Trent D'Arby (who now goes by Sananda Maitreya) “Bittersweet Symphony” “Touch of Grey”  Don’t forget to give One Hit History a five star rating!  AI Transcript Sloane Spencer  Hey y'all Sloane Spencer here you found us. It's one hit history, the new podcast where we talk with music people about what's your favorite one hit wonder. We're fixing to jump in talking with our friends Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson of the band LadyCouch. They got the new record out called future looks fun. It's on Blackbird records. You can find it in all your favorite places where music is available. We'll talk with them a little bit throughout the conversation about their own music as well and the cool stuff they have coming up. But first, let's just jump right in some y'all. What's your favorite one hit wonder. Keshia Bailey Oh my god. This is so hard. Allen Thompson So we've got a lot of favorite one hit wonders. But that recent GEICO commercial with tag team has taken me back to the spring of 1993. And made me really think about Whoop, there it is, by tag team versus Whoop, there it is by 95. Sell. The course is almost identical. Minus the spelling of the whoop and or WOOT in the title, subject matter. Kind of similar. I feel like tag jeans, the writings a little stronger. Lyrically, it's a little bit more poetic. Both of them are you know, pretty much worldwide sports Hanson's at this point. Yes, absolutely. AT Anybody that has been to a football game or owns any of the 385 editions have now That's What I Call Music, you've definitely heard SS both songs platinum at the minimum, in fact, the whoop version of it multi platinum and the WOOT version, platinum, both of them and not 100. And just absolutely successful in and of their own right. But it's been that continuation through sports and advertising that has made these songs of the millennium in many ways. AT I mean, they open the door for Who let the dogs out many other one hit wonder classics. SS We're gonna feature the song, who let the dogs out on another one hit history, because there's actually quite a bit more behind the scenes about that particular song as well. So hold those thoughts on that particular song. But yeah, but styling. AT I mean, I'm interested, I'm looking forward to that episode.

  • M Lockwood Porter Loves Mazzy Star “Fade Into You”

    M Lockwood Porter Loves Mazzy Star “Fade Into You”
    Feb 3 2022
    It might be the best a tambourine has ever sounded on a song…it just sparkles. “Fade Into You,” Mazzy Star’s mid-90’s MTV classic is the rare one hit wonder that transcends time and place. The song is such a warm blanket of sound that it was featured on countless mix tapes in the 90’s, then placed prominently on every mix CD made by a sensitive guy in the early 2000’s, and still lives on an immeasurable number of streaming playlists. (T)his song exists kind of out of time. It could have come out a couple years ago, or it could have come out in the 70s or the 90s. In the latest episode of One Hit History, Sloane Spencer sits down with musician M. Lockwood Porter to discuss a song that arose from the tail end of the Los Angeles music scene known as the Paisley Underground. Mazzy Star is fronted by the tantalizing wallflower Hope Sandoval and though the song was everywhere in 1994, neither Spencer nor Porter became familiar with the hit until years later. Porter shares details about his forthcoming fifth LP, which includes contributions from John Moreland. One of the things that makes this band so tantalizing is that my understanding is that Hope Sandoval is very shy and has stage fright…it just adds some mystery and depth to what you hear in the music.

AI Transcript Sloane Spencer  0:05  Well, hey y'all, this is Sloane Spencer, you found us at our new podcast one hit history. It's where we talk with music people about their favorite one hit wonders. Well, we're using the term hit really loosely, and we're using the term favorite pretty loosely. And we've come across some incredible songs got a wonderful guest with us today, Mr. Lockwood Porter, a number of fantastic records that you can check out at his website am Lockwood porter.com, or, of course, our favorite band camp at a fifth album on the way in 2022. Want to hear more about that? Hello. M Lockwood Porter  0:35  Hi, how are you doing? Sloane Spencer  0:36  I'm great. How are you doing? Great. What's up with this next record? M Lockwood Porter  0:40  You know, it's becoming a little bit of a cliche at this point. But it's one of those lockdown records. Like so many other musicians, I found myself with a lot of time on my hands over the last year and a half, two years or so. And yeah, so for this one, you know, I just did a lot of recording at home, which I hadn't really done very much before on my previous records. You know, it was usually three live in the studio with a band but this one, I rushed up on my engineering skills and I bought some microphones and working on songs throu...

More Interesting Than I Expected

I listened because I like one hit wonders, but I never heard of these guests before, so I didn't think I'd be into it. Turns out, they were all pretty interesting and I learned about music I wouldn't normally listen to. She made it super fun and not boring.
