Episode 51 - Happy Songs with Dark Lyrics - I Just Wanted to Ruin Something Beautiful - a podcast by Isaac Heckert and Misty Roberts

Episode 51 - Happy Songs with Dark Lyrics - I  Just Wanted to Ruin Something Beautiful 

Are Misty and Ike Kajillionaires yet?  Nope.  And Misty was confused- Olivia Wilde didn't direct Kajillionaire.  She just likes it a bunch.

Misty and Ike chat a bit about the Day 7 episode of Armchair Expert.  And if Misty is Monica and Ike is Dax or if Misty is Dax and Ike is Monica...

We dive into songs that are seemingly upbeat but harbor some dark lyrics like- 

Mazzy Star, Foster the People, Barry Manilow, Outcast, MIA, Paul Simon, Third Eye Blind, Abba, Bruce Springsteen, Dolly Parton, SugarCult and Michael Jackson.

Did you know that the Macarena is about a cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater?

And Call Me Al is about a man in midlife crisis and his regrets?

And that Lesley Gore invited a dude to her party and got ghosted all the way back in 1963?

And that Dolly Parton was fighting for womens equality and right back in 1980!

And Misty and Ike serenade all of you with their rendition of Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson.

And if the apocalypse hasn't happened, we'll see you tomorrow!
