Episode 5: Label Me

 

It’s Label week - music from Sire Records - and the 11 League contenders compete in a 22 song playlist that explores the legacy of legendary Sire Records. More importantly, SPECIAL GUEST Dan (2x League Champion, 1x Silver, 2x Bronze) joins Duncan, Mike & Rich to analyze the playlist, discuss the Sire sound, argue about the definition of Britpop, and debate the highlights and lowlights of the week.

Also: Duncan makes a case for giving 2 votes to Office of a Busy Man, even as he argues that it might be the stupidest song ever played in the 2,040 song history of OPML. Dan couldn’t care less that the cover of Shake Some Action adds little to the original – it’s still a perfect song! Rich & Mike are both into the Foxy Shazam song and are promptly vilified by Dan & Duncan. And what happens when the League finally discusses that Ministry song on the list?
