Back To Back and Belly to Belly at the Haunted House - Show # 67 - February 5 2016


Today we pose an interesting question at the House:


Can you step twice in the same river?
We believe this is not the first time this question has been asked.
Which begs the question,
Can you ask the same question twice?
Or, to put it in a different way,
Can you ask the same question twice?



These are the kind of philosophical questions we will debate today in our COVER SONGS special:
Can you listen to the same song twice?
Is it the same song, or is it a new thing?
Are there covers that dwarf the originals?
Is the original always and per se better and more valuable?
Is that lemon curry?
Could you spot the difference if it hit you on the head with an organic banana?


These and more are the questions we ask today.
WE PLAY THE SAME SONGS TWICE!
WE'LL GIVE YOU THE O.G. AND THE COPY!
WE PLAY THEM BACK TO BACK AND BELLY TO BELLY
WE WILL DO THE SONG BEAST WITH THE DOUBLE BACK!

A famous case in which the version goes way beyond the original and results in a clear improvement:

You will need these Poor-Devil-Of-A-Sub-Sub-Radio™ to listen to the show today (the radio makes the two songs sound at the same time!!):
