TOMMY: I like the fake start in that record.
My life is --- and then he goes again. My life is
brilliant. My life is...
[swoosh / music plays] Today we're going to play a new
game on the channel and to do that we have a special guest with us. This is Evan Gregory.
How are you doing, sir? EVAN: I'm good, man. Thanks for having me. Good to see you.
TOMMY: It's nice to have you here. Most of you
probably know Evan and his work but for those who don't,
what do you do? EVAN: I'm part of a group The Gregory Brothers
and we're mostly known for our YouTube channel Schmoyoho where we
created a series a videos called Auto-Tune The News.
It's now Songify The News. You might have seen
videos that we did over the years like the Bed Intruder song or
the Double Rainbow song... where in we take things
that were never supposed to be a song and make them into a song.
TOMMY: Well, listen, since we're both giant music fans we thought we'd
play a game of Name That Tune. It's going to be The Lyrics Edition.
Now, Ben Churchill is here and he's going to read us off some lyrics from
the 80s, 90s, and the Oughts, and we have to guess what they are.
And he's going to give us multiple choices. How do you think you're going to do, sir?
EVAN: I'm a musician so I'm aware of music. I have a lot of knowledge
of music but I got to be honest... I'm intimidated because
as a blind person I assume your ear is so
finely tuned and keenly aware of
songs, I assume you're going to kill me. TOMMY: Well, I don't know.
I'm pretty much a groove based guy so we'll see how we go. Ben Churchill.
You want to take it away. BEN: Here we go. We're going to start with the 90s.
BEN: First song. "There are many things that I
would like to say to you
but I don't know how." TOMMY: [gasp] What do you think?
Do you think you know what it is? EVAN: I'm feeling pretty good about this one.
I have an image of listening to this song in my
prom dates car. BEN: Is it Green Day with
Basket Case? Third Eye Blind with
Semi-Charmed Life? Or Oasis with Wonderwall?
TOMMY: Evan, just write your answer down.
EVAN: I'm trying to fake you out by writing a lot.
Tommy can't put this over on me. I know he's going to be counting
my pen strokes. He's picking up on everything that
I'm doing over here. TOMMY: My guess is going to Oasis and Wonderwall.
EVAN: I had Oasis too. BEN: That's correct.
You both got it. Alright next song.
"Hunger hurts but starving
works when it costs too much to love."
Alanis Morissette with You Ought To Know?
Fiona Apple with Paper Bag. Or The Cranberries?
with Linger? TOMMY: Alright, write down your answer there, sir.
I don't know. I'm going to go with The Cranberries and Linger.
EVAN: I put Fiona Apple.
BEN: The correct answer is Fiona Apple. TOMMY: Ohhhh!
Nice one, dude. Very good.
EVAN: Feels so good. Only she --- TOMMY: Chuck Mangione!
EVAN: Only she could write a lyric so pained. BEN: Next song.
"Fresh new kicks and pants.
You gotta like it that now you know
you wanna dance."
Is it Bel Biv Devoe with Poison?
MC Hammer with You Can't Touch This?
Or is it Kris Kross with Jump?
TOMMY: You all set? EVAN: Yeah, I got an idea here.
TOMMY: I think I know. I'm going to go Kris Kross.
EVAN: I put Kris Kross. BEN: The correct answer
is MC Hammer. BOTH: Go on! Damn.
EVAN: I felt like I knew that song but obviously there are
some verses that were going
right by. TOMMY: Dude, that must be from the 12 inch.
BEN: Alright, here's the next song.
"Shake your head to the sound. Put your hands
on the ground." We have Coolio
with Gangsters Paradise.
Michael Jackson with Black or White.
Or Lou Bega with Mambo No. 5. TOMMY: I'm going to say
it's Black or White from Michael Jackson.
EVAN: I put Lou Bega. BEN: The correct answer...
is Lou Bega. TOMMY: Stop!
EVAN: [fanfare sound] TOMMY: Where? What part?
"Shake your head to the sound. Put your ---" Ahhhh!
EVAN: Yeah, I have no idea when it comes to the
song. I was just trying to imagine that lyric
happening in any one of those songs. Definitely was not going to happen
in Gangsters Paradise. At no point, would Coolio tell you how to dance.
TOMMY: No way. No, no. no.
BEN: Alright, time for the 80's. "Slow change may pull us apart.
When the light gets into your heart, baby."
EVAN: I do not know what this, but something about that
lyric is so 80s. BEN: Soft Cell with
Tainted Love. Simple Minds with Don't You Forget About Me.
Or The Human League with
Don't You Want Me. EVAN: This one is a tough one for me.
TOMMY: Oh, me too! And I've heard all three of these records
a million times. EVAN: Yeah. But you
know the chorus. TOMMY: I'm going to go with SImple Minds
and Don't You Forget About Me from The Breakfast Club. EVAN: I went with Human League.
BEN: The correct answer is SImple Minds.
TOMMY: Hey! Alright, I got one. EVAN: It's already happening.
Tommy's clawing his way back in. BEN: Next song...
Here we go... "So glad we've almost made it.
So sad they had to fade it." EVAN: I love that rhyme.
Rhyming made it with fade it. TOMMY: Oh, it's genius.
It's so creative. You'd never see it coming.
BEN: Is it Rick Astly with
Never Gonna Give You Up. Duran Duran with Hungry
Like The Wolf. Or Tears For Fears with
Everybody Wants To Rule The World? TOMMY: I'm going with
Everybody Wants To Rule The World from the great Tears For Fears.
EVAN: Man you really sound confident. TOMMY: Songs from the Big Chair.
EVAN: Golly. I put Duran Duran. BEN: The correct answer...
Tears For Fears. TOMMY: Come on.
Come on. Now we've got a game. EVAN: Oh, guys it's Tommy's round.
BEN: Here's the last song for the 80s.
"Emotions come. I don't know why.
Cover up love's alibi." TOMMY: I don't know. I feel like I'm
in trouble. EVAN: I've got to fit into the choices here.
BEN: Eurythmics with Sweet Dreams. Blonde
with Call Me. Or The Cure with
Just Like Heaven. EVAN: Alright, I got an answer. TOMMY: I do too.
I don't know if it's right, but I'm going to go with
Eurythmics and Sweet Dreams. EVAN: I put The Cure.
BEN: The correct answer is Blonde
with Call Me. TOMMY: Nobody. No point for that one.
EVAN: That's embarrassing. TOMMY: Is it more embarrassing for us or Blondie?
BEN: Here we go. The oughts. That's what we call it, right?
TOMMY: Yep, the oughts. BEN: "You own it.
You better never let it go. You only get one shot.
Do not miss your chance." EVAN: I think I know this one.
TOMMY: Do you? EVAN: Yeah.
BEN: Is it Snoop Dogg with Drop It Like It's Hot? Is it Justin Timberlake
with Sexy Back. Is it Eminem with Loose Yourself.
TOMMY: Wow! You locked in?
EVAN: Yep. TOMMY: I'm going to go with JT and Sexy Back.
EVAN: I put Eminem. BEN: The correct answer is...
Eminem. TOMMY: Ohhhh!
EVAN: "You beter never let it go"
TOMMY: Nice one. Nice. BEN: Okay here we go. Next song.
"If I'm alive and well. Will you be
there holding my hand?" TOMMY: See the way he puts the accent on the wrong syllable
like that? It's pretty funny. BEN: Is it Snow Patrol
with Chasing Cars? Is it
The Killers with Mr. Brightside?
Or is it Three Doors Down with Kryptonite?
TOMMY: Ooh, he's got one. I'm just going
to take a shot in the dark. I'm going to go with The Killers
and Mr. Brightside. EVAN: I know this one and it's
Three Doors Down. BEN: The correct is Three Doors Down.
TOMMY: Ohhh!
EVAN: It actually took me longer than it should have
because your very tricky reading.
It was duplicitous in nature.
The way you were
putting the emphasis on the wrong syllable.
BEN: Here's the next one. "And I don't know what to do
because I'll never be with you."
EVAN: That one is so vague and generic that could be any song.
TOMMY: That could be anything. EVAN: That could be in any song.
BEN: Is it Plain White Tees, Hey There Delilah?
Kings of Leon, Use Somebody? James Blunt, You're Beautiful?
Okay, the choices really helped me on this one.
I can't be totally confident because I do not know that lyric,
but I know the character of each of those three songs.
TOMMY: Me too. I'm going to go with Plain White Tees and Hey There Delilah.
EVAN: I went with James Blunt.
TOMMY: Of course. That's right. BEN: The correct answer...
James Blunt.
Here we go. Last one. "Let's do it.
Let's do it. Let's do it."
EVAN: Oh my god. BEN: "Let's do it. And do it.
And do it.
Let's live it up."
TOMMY: I totally have this one. EVAN: I don't know this one.
TOMMY: Come on! BEN: Beyonce, Single Ladies.
The Black Eyed Pease, I Got A Feeling.
Usher, Yeah!
EVAN: [laughing] TOMMY: Now you've got it, don't you?
EVAN: Yeah, I think so. I think so.
I'm not sure. TOMMY: It was only number one for 10 weeks.
And I'm going to with I Got A Feeling from The Black Eyed Peas.
EVAN: Black Eyed Peas, I got "Let's do it. Let's do it.
Let's do it. And do it. And do it. Do it.
Let's live it up. Let's live it up. Mazel Tov!
[both laugh] BEN: That's correct.
Evan is the winner. TOMMY: Nicely done my friend.
EVAN: Wow, thank you. Thank you. I never thought I would say thank you
to Three Doors Down but thank you.
TOMMY: They helped you. That was a good one.
EVAN: Putting me into that final lead. TOMMY: Well, this was so much
fun. Thanks Evan for being a part of this. And don't forget to check out
The Gregory Brothers and all the stuff that they do. And if you're not a subscriber,
please go on ahead and do that. EVAN: Man, thanks for having me. This was a blast.
And incredibly gratifying. TOMMY: Because you won, you creep!
How dare you win on my own channel.
[music plays]
BEN: I felt like "pants" would have been a giveaway on that one because he's
known for those crazy pants. TOMMY: The Hammer pants, yeah.
EVAN: Yeah, but don't we all wear pants really. Kris Kross
they were wearing backwards pants.
That's a whole style they wanted to draw attention to. They might be rapping
about their pants. TOMMY: Or crapping about their pants.
EVAN: Oh boy. TOMMY: Come on. You set me up. What am I supposed to do?
