Song Year: 1968 In one of the legendary band's most iconic songs, vocalist Mic Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards wrote “Jumping Jack Flash” with deep southern Delta blues in mind. The song became an instant hit, ranking in Rolling Stone's Top 500 Greatest Songs of all Time. The lyrics came to them when they were staying at Richard's vacation home...
Song Year: 1979 The Specials covered this song, originally written by 60s ska and reggae artist Dandy Livingstone in 1967. The Specials took Livingstone's slower, rock steady version and sped it up, making it into a ska-style song replete with a long horn section. “Rudy” refers to rude boy, a term used in Jamaica for naughty boys up to no good.
Song Year: 1969 For a bit of irony, we give you a girl's name meant for a boy. Johnny Cash didn't write this song. Instead, the famous poet and children's author Shel Silverstein wrote it in his characteristic humorist style. Cash turned it into a song, maintaining its humor. He recorded it live from San Quinton prison to applause and laughter, lau...
Song Year: 2015 “Wesley's Theory” is the opening song on Pulitzer Prize and Grammy Award winner Kendrick Lamar's third album, To Pimp A Butterfly. Lamar wrote the song about black actor Wesley Snipe's stint in prison for tax evasion as a metaphor for the Black plight. He argued that Black men are groomed to expect failure and never taught how to ma...
Song Year: 1969 John Lennon wrote this song about his whirlwind wedding and honeymoon with Yoko Ono. A lighthearted love song, “The Ballad of John and Yoko,” marked the beginning of the end for the Beatles as their last number-one single. Unfortunately, many blame Ono for the Beatles' breakup.
Song Year: 1986 Leave it to the pioneers of modern hip hop to turn a nursery rhyme into a rap song. Even if you haven't heard the song, surely you've heard the alliterative rhyme or tried to enunciate it yourself as a tongue twister challenge. Run-DMC has been deemed the best Hip Hop group of all time by both MTV and VH1 and one of the first groups...
Song Year: 1970 A personal favorite from the original jam band and San Francisco's pride and joy, The Grateful Dead, “Uncle John's Band,” drew inspiration from folk music around the U.S. Its catchy and warm melody, coupled with famous folk lines, made it one of the Dead's most beloved songs. It's from the album Working Man's Dead, coupled with anot...
Song Year: 2001 The mysterious English “virtual” band, Gorillaz, is clearly an Eastwood fan. They modeled their mix sample off the theme song from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Then, a few years later, they came out with the song entitled “Dirty Harry.” “Clint Eastwood” offers the Gorillaz unique ethereal mixing style as the backdrop for rapper ...
Song Year: 2000 An uncharacteristically deep and vulnerable song from the irreverent pop-punk band Blink 182, “Adams Song” became one of their most popular songs. In it, bassist Mark Hoppus expresses his immense loneliness, formatting the song as if it were a suicide note recapping his sad existence while on tour.
Song Year: 1991 As you might guess, the Pixies wrote “Alec Eiffel” on tour when they were in Paris. “Alec Eiffel” is short for Alexandre Gustave Eiffel, the architect who designed the Eiffel Tower and the Statue of Liberty. Lead singer Black Francis shortened the name to “Alec” on purpose as a play on words referencing “smart Alec.”
