I might lose the first couple, but next one I'm coming at ya.
♪ (industrial music) ♪
- (FBE) So you sang at quite a few of these songs.
Can you tell us what happened there?
- Yeah, it hit my nostalgia bone.
- I like singing. I like showing off my bad voice.
- I just wanted to. (giggles)
I just gave into the music.
- Music is like an escape for me.
I just kind of really immerse myself in the lyrics,
in the melody.
- You guys hit me with the Journey, the Spice Girls,
(enunciating) Red Hot Chili Peppers.
They were great songs.
Like, it was impossible not to sing along.
- (FBE) So you did pretty well at this challenge.
What's your secret?
- The secret was me not knowing the lyrics.
- They're so many good tunes.
It was very hard to hold back.
- Just 'cause it was a challenge,
I was like, "I'm not gonna cave in."
- A little concentration.
It was kinda hard. Some of those songs, man,
especially the Journey song, I mean, pssh, wow.
- I can fake it. Like, I'll listen to music when I'm at work
even though I'm not supposed to. Don't tell anybody.
I'm kind of, like, used to that.
But it doesn't make me feel good.
- (FBE) Last question:
what makes a song difficult to resist singing along to?
- Um, well, it's just the catchiness of the song.
It grabs you right away.
- It has to have a really, really good beat.
- Relatable lyrics and easily sung lyrics.
And then some people are just raised with that stuff,
like Journey.
- When you have a catchy chorus and a great-sounding singer,
you have a hit.
Why haven't people just been doing this their whole life?
Like, let's make a song. Let's go.
