Riobic Tompomiter: Lyrics Part 3

Why do lyrics matter so much to us? In Part 3 of our ongoing lyrics series, Jackson gives Joe an alternative pronunciation to iambic pentameter and takes a surprisingly serious dive into poetry, meter, rhythm, rhyme schemes, Greek storytelling traditions, and the musical DNA that connects ancient epics to modern rock songs all while we cross our wires. Somewhere along the way, we discuss Bruce Springsteen crowds yelling choruses, the origins of rock & roll, and whether most people actually know the words they're singing. Joe contributes confusion, interruptions, and moral support.
