Podcast: Seaside Pod Review

Kev and Randy work their way through the Queen catalogue, one (random) song at a time.

Fat Bottomed Girls

“Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre you gonna take me home tonight?” “No chance. You look like you’re gonna puke and I don’t want to clean up two pints of Rum and black!” Few know that this was the original line, but Freddie wisely convinced Brian to change it. Let’s be honest, there are issues with the lyrics in this…

Doing All Right

Back to the start. Actually, back before the start in some ways, with a song written by Smile, the precursor band to both Queen and the much bigger and more influential Humpy Bong. Don’t hump bongs folks, you could burn your pee pee and that’s never good! Speaking of burning pee pees, Randy and Kev…

Too Much Love Will Kill You

This episode is titled “Ballad salad”, so get yer tissues out folks. It’s another tear-jerker! Kev and Randy agree again on “Too Much Love Will Kill You”, the heart-wrenching autopsy of Brian May’s failing marriage. Yeh we know, it’s getting boring, there’s not enough conflict…. maybe we should just have a game of slaps to…

Back Chat

Don’t talk back! Don’t talk back! Don’t talk back! LEAVE US ALONE! Jesus Murphy, what do you people want from us? Another season of the highly acclaimed (in Kev’s mind) and award-winning (in Randy’s delusional fantasies) Queen podcast? We gotcha back Jack. And speaking of Backs, this episode covers the chatty kind. This one covers…

I Guess We’re Falling Out

Kev’s in Ottawa, Randy was in Flin Flon, but by the grace of all the gods that ever existed (and there have been a lot!) they managed to get together to spin the accursed wheel and talk, at inordinate length, about another song in the Queen catalogue. This week it’s an outtake from The Miracle…

Fun It

Another Roger song. The first track from Jazz. Another unanimous decision from Kev and Randy. Apologies for the audio quality difference during the Twitter discussion. Kev’s internet connection wasn’t great and he was recording on his laptop with no proper mic. To cap off the shit show, Zoom didn’t record the audio to separate tracks….

Delilah

Look, it’s really hard to write a good song about a cat. And I mean an actual cat, not like Cool for Cats or Honkey Cat. Those aren’t the felines that lick their own arses and strut around like they own the place! In this week’s episode, Kev astonishes Randy with his deep and nerdy…

Innuendo

Through the sorrow, all through our splendour, don’t take offence at our, Queen podcast…. “You’re not as witty as the @lappods guys!”, we hear you say! Yep. Fair enough. “You’re not as informed as the Queenpod!” is a valid criticsm!” ALRIGHT! No need to lay it on thick! “Brrrgn frrgggmrrr bgrrhghg!” Look, we don’t know…

In the Lap of the Gods

This week, Randy and Kev get their first song from Sheer Heart Attack. It’s the opener from side two, which isn’t related to the closer from side two with kinda the same name. The boys are split in their eventual unscientific opinions on this one but both feel that they made valid points. So they…

Long Away

ANOTHER song from A Day At The Races! This time it’s the mid-tempo, twelve-string, Brian May track, Long Away. There may be a little more swearing in this episode than usual because the boys had both had two or three beers before they even turned the mics on! Nonethless, they will regale you with keen…
