on some '70s music. - [Bleep] yeah. Let's do it, dude!
- Ooh, I'm ready to get my groove on.
Ready to cut a rug, as they said.
- Every single time you guys put me on '70s,
I don't know anything.
- I feel like my music knowledge is really bad,
but I'm looking forward to learning about the '70s.
- I'm taking a road trip to Las Vegas and I'm trying to make
a cool '70s road trip playlist, you know what I mean,
because you're just driving through nothing
and so I want to be like chilling with my '70s jams.

- When I hear this song, one single tear falls from my eye.
- (FBE) And do you know it? - I think it's--
I know it's called "Let It Be," right?
But I don't know who the artist is.
- The Beatles, "Let It Be"?
- "Let It Be" by The Beatles?
- This is "Let It Be" by The Beatles.
- (FBE) So this is "Let It Be" by The Beatles.
- Oh, really?
I don't know. I didn't know that.
- They are one of the pioneers of modern rock.
They, as a band, have caused so many standards
in music to arise.
- They're my favorite band of all time.
I'm pretty sure I have this album itself in record form.

- I like it.
I like it. The beat is cool.
It's different.
- (FBE) Do you know it?
- This is "Mamma Mia," but I don't know who sings it.
- I know it's "Mamma Mia" and it's from the musical,
but I don't know the name of the artist.
- "Mamma Mia" by... unknown.
- I know it's called "Mamma Mia." ABBA.
- This is "Mamma Mia" by ABBA.
- (FBE) This is "Mamma Mia" by ABBA.
- ABBA, okay.
I've heard of ABBA a lot.
I've never just gotten into their music.
- Oh, ABBA.
I heard ABBA's coming back and making new stuff.
- I've just recently gotten into ABBA and their songs are so dramatic,
and so I like listening to it and feeling very dramatic.
- (FBE) So despite the upbeat music, the lyrics to this song
are actually kind of sad, dealing with heartbreak
and letting a loved one go, even though you want them back.
- I didn't realize that.
I thought it was just super fun and upbeat.
- Okay, I'm still gonna gallivant and pick flowers to this song.
- That's the best way to deal with heartbreak
because if you're already sad, either you make yourself sadder
and just let it all out or you make yourself sadder
and happy and just, like, this is my life--
might as well live it happy.

That was pretty good. I liked that.

this is the song that was ripped off.
When I first heard the comparison, I didn't really think
that they were very similar, but just then I'm like,
wow, that's totally the same song.

They're like the bad Beatles.

sung by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell.

I haven't heard of this version before.
- That's why it sounded different.
I remember it being so, like...

but made to sound different even though their genres
are kinda similar.
