past
Lana SearleHOST
First one could have been a coinkydink.
Lana SearleHOST
You get to the second one with Wheatus and you go, oh, that is quite similar.
Lana SearleHOST
That one there for me.
Lana SearleHOST
And these are three of the five examples.
Chris StirewaltGUEST
So the dirtbag ethos, the...
Chris StirewaltGUEST
Wheatus gave us the song Teenage Dirtbag.
Chris StirewaltGUEST
The Teenage Dirtbag is the hero, right? of that story in America, as evidenced by the popularity of mixed martial arts, of a lot of things.
Chris StirewaltGUEST
America's down for it, right? America, it's part of what makes America great.
Lauren BarryHOST
That's just, I think that's just currently, so comments at the moment on the YouTube started appearing about a month ago and it's really blown up over the weekend and they're just, people are sharing it everywhere.
Lauren BarryHOST
Because of that, so because we already have 1, 2, 3, 4, her song, people are now saying that her song 7-Eleven is now being compared to Wheatus' Teenage Dirtbag.
Lauren BarryHOST
Alright, let's hear this.
speaker_7SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I don't agree with that one as much.
Straight NatePANELIST
That guy is just so incredibly talented.
Straight NatePANELIST
And at some point, three quarters of the way through the show, he brought out Brandon, the lead singer of Wheatus, and they did a cover of Teenage Dirtbag.
Straight NatePANELIST
It was a top five moment of my life, period.
GandhiPANELIST
Wow.
KarishaHOST
Did you? No.
ChrisHOST
No, the only thing I know Loser for is I think that's the movie that Wheatus' Teenage Dirtbag video is for.
KarishaHOST
Okay.
ChrisHOST
With Jason Biggs in the hunting hat.
David SimsHOST
It's a good song.
Griffin NewmanHOST
We, we talked about on our fucking Loser episode, Amy Heckerling's Loser, about how that is a movie where it spawning Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus is the weird example of a song so largely out shadowing the movie that it came from.
Griffin NewmanHOST
I don't know if we failed to mention in that discussion-
David SimsHOST
New York, New York
Matt KellyHOST
Prediction number two was Sinead O'Connor, Nothing Compares to You, which I think has the potential to be the number one.
Matt KellyHOST
Number three, Wheatus' Teenage Dirtbag, another one I think has the potential to be the number one.
Matt KellyHOST
And number four was I Love You More Today Than Yesterday by Spiral Staircase.
Matt KellyHOST
And my final prediction before we dive into these 20, Closing Time by Semisonic.

Philip ReesHOST
It kind of does.
Philip ReesHOST
And one of the co-hosts is Matthew Milligan, who's the bassist for Wheatus.
Philip ReesHOST
So that's kind of how that
DavidPANELIST
happened.
DavidPANELIST
But it also tells you what people think about him and his band, where it's like an actual guy who's in a band that is a thing.
DavidPANELIST
Like, Wheatus is a band.
DavidPANELIST
They had hits.
DavidPANELIST
People know who they are.
