Beyond The Grooves

Joe and Patty take a listen to songs that either borrow, sample or outright plagiarize other songs. Some resulted in lawsuits, some settled out of court. Occasionally the original songwriter said "go ahead and use it, I don't care". You might be surprised when you hear which songs we included! Plus two "mondegreens".

In this episode, Joe and Patty take a listen to politically incorrect songs that would never fly today.  Masked beneath catchy, upbeat music are  songs about misogyny, adultery, racism, abuse, incest, pedophilia and body shaming! These are tunes we all sang along and danced to - and some that even topped the charts! But we really didn't pay attention to the lyrics. Plus a surprising misheard lyric from The Rolling Stones and one from Cher. 

Joe and Patty take you down memory lane with songs that songs that you haven't heard in a long time! Plus two misheard lyrics. If  you'd like to support our station, please click on  the  support button. Thank  you!
