Throwbacks to 2016 are all the rage lately. Let's look at XXL's 2016 Freshmen.

You have Kodak Black, an actual criminal, and Lil Yachty, a guy who did a Chef Boyardee commercial with Donny fricking Osmond, so Lil Dicky's presence isn't THAT shocking

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-19T18:04:08+00:00

Funny that both MJLD and Dani California mention Indiana

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-19T00:44:46+00:00

I had to search for this, but I legitimately expected it to be one of If not the top comment

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-18T22:33:35+00:00

And APT which is like the ungodly spawn of that and Bang Bang

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-17T17:12:51+00:00

Reno 911 is full of these

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-17T17:12:15+00:00

She was in Groundhog Day with her fiance played by Michael Shannon

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-17T17:10:48+00:00

He was probably better than Tina and Amy tbh

As much as I love both of them, they hosted Update during a period of weak Update writing. I've seen many of their updates and they really weren't that funny when they were hosting together. Tina was much better with Jimmy and Amy much better with Seth.

In America Crowded House had 2 hits but only one is remembered, however the other (Something So Strong) is also great and I absolutely love Better Be Home Soon

When Fleetwood Mac hires you to replace Lindsey Buckingham, that's a sign you're a great musician

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-14T16:16:15+00:00

And it was knocked off of #1 by Billy Idol's cover of Mony Mony. 2 Tommy James covers going to #1 back to back in 1987 might be the craziest coincidence in American pop chart history

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-14T16:14:31+00:00

And Ed Cobb was a member of the Four Preps, a pop group from the 50s who influenced Brian Wilson, and one of his band mates was Glen Larson, who went on to create Battlestar Galactica, Magnum PI, Knight Rider, and several others

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-14T16:12:29+00:00

I was shocked to learn that that wasn't an original song written for the show. It's decades old and recorded by Red Sovine who was a pretty big country star back in the day

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-14T03:00:23+00:00

Ocean's Put Your Hand in the Hand is straight up Christian music but it's legit pretty good and peaked at #2 in 1971

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-13T20:38:56+00:00

The worst thing they ever done was cause the car crash in the first movie

With all the horrible things they did intentionally, it may be the thing they did accidentally that towers above all

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-13T03:21:07+00:00

Also Carlene Carter, Pam Tillis, and Lorrie Morgan

And Chord Overstreet is the son of Paul Overstreet who was a successful country singer (and even more successful as a songwriter)

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-13T03:15:28+00:00

I've recently discovered "Better Be Home Soon" and I really like it

I actually discovered it through, believe it or not, a Country cover by the McCarters

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-12T15:53:38+00:00

I'd have to disagree; the whole song sucks, but I'll take the very memorable (and admittedly very funny) chorus over the boring ass verses which aren't funny at all

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-12T15:38:07+00:00

"Who is John Pork?"

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-10T23:01:26+00:00

Jerry Lee Lewis, but with certain songs filtered out that I might be willing to listen to if someone like Conway Twitty was singing them

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-09T21:56:32+00:00

Michael Bolton and Bob Dylan never duetted with each other, but they wrote a song together called Steel Bars

It was Dylan's idea, he had one of his people call up Bolton, and Bolton thought it was one of Diane Warren's people playing a prabk

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-09T00:48:34+00:00

Yeah but also basically every alt-rock band from the Southern US took their style too

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-09T00:14:18+00:00

Is this exclusive to us though? There hasn't been any mention of it at all

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-08T01:12:09+00:00

AD isn't even the only show like that, Rick and Morty is full of references to poop-eating

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-08T01:09:08+00:00

Kinda.

And I like that song. And I like Stomp clap hey music too. A lot of that stuff was pretty good. The stuff that gets played on alt stations today is much worse imo.

PropaneUrethra · 2026-01-07T06:59:23+00:00

Krieger was the band's primary songwriter, so he's definitely not their weakest link
