The Now and Again Podcast #051 – Rolling Stone’s Greatest Songs of the Century – So Far (50-1)
We’re back with the top 50 from Rolling Stone’s Greatest Songs of the Century (So Far) list. Nico kicks things off with an incredible philosophical polemic on artifice; it’s Jean Baudrillard meets Panic! at the Disco. We get into the Moneyball of the list and discuss the industry’s usual suspects (who Rolling Stone sent ballots to) and how it reflects the contents. Finally, we tackle the top 50 and disparage dead legends, indie darlings, teen heartthrobs, and YASS QUEENS. Direct all your death threats to joey@cageclub.me. (Editor’s note: Please do not.)
