The Original Doll with James Rodriguez: Britney Spears and more

Host: Artist Archivist James RodriguezBut today, I want to talk about one that gets left out. No big single release. No video. Just a song sitting there on the album, waiting for somebody to give it a little attention.We’re talking about “Jimmy Jimmy.”Yes, “Jimmy Jimmy.” We’re giving this one its flowers today.Because you know what I love about an album cut? You don’t have to make a case for why it should’ve been a number one. Sometimes it’s enough to ask: what do I enjoy about this song? What does it add to the album?And I think there’s more to enjoy here than this song usually gets credit for.

Host: Artist Archivist ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠James Rodriguez ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠When we talk about Savage Garden, there are certain songs that immediately come to mind. “Truly Madly Deeply,” “I Want You,” “The Animal Song,” and “I Knew I Loved You” are all part of a catalogue that helped define pop music in the late 1990s.But today, I want to spend some time with a song that deserves just as much recognition, and perhaps a little more conversation than it sometimes receives.“To the Moon and Back.”Celebrating 30 years since the released the this song.
