"Whoomp! There It Is!" is talking about their particular art scene as a whole, even though it’s more T&A based. -- Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson, co-founders of jam band LadyCouch on their favorite one hit wonder by Tag Team The conversation bounces around so much between Sloane Spencer and the co-founders of LadyCouch (Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson) that who knows where it is while they talk about their favorite one hit wonder from 1993. But the Nashville duo finally lands on “Whoomp There It Is” by Tag Team. But don’t confuse it with 95 South’s “Whoot There It Is”, though the trio chats about the differences and similarities between the two. My philosophy is ‘hit’ is however you want to define it. It’s whatever it means for the conversation. -- Sloane Spencer, host of One Hit History, on how loosely the podcast defines "hit" Listen to see how the strip club scene in Atlanta in the 90s was essential to the music scene, the unlikely way the band got their party song on the streets, and how many musicians' favorite one hit wonders come outside of the genre in which they perform and write. That recent Geico commercial has taken me back to the spring of ‘93. -- Allen Thompson (LadyCouch co-founder) Links Blackbird Records label LadyCouch (6-12 members rotating, core is Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson) One Hit History podcast playlist of show guests One Hit History playlist of one hit wonders Bonus episodes, outtakes, and sneak peeks Music Mentions The Future Looks Fine LadyCouch “Whoomp There It Is” “Whoot, There It Is” “Who Let the Dogs Out” “Ring my Bell” Terence Trent D'Arby (who now goes by Sananda Maitreya) “Bittersweet Symphony” “Touch of Grey” Don’t forget to give One Hit History a five star rating! AI Transcript Sloane Spencer Hey y'all Sloane Spencer here you found us. It's one hit history, the new podcast where we talk with music people about what's your favorite one hit wonder. We're fixing to jump in talking with our friends Keshia Bailey and Allen Thompson of the band LadyCouch. They got the new record out called future looks fun. It's on Blackbird records. You can find it in all your favorite places where music is available. We'll talk with them a little bit throughout the conversation about their own music as well and the cool stuff they have coming up. But first, let's just jump right in some y'all. What's your favorite one hit wonder. Keshia Bailey Oh my god. This is so hard. Allen Thompson So we've got a lot of favorite one hit wonders. But that recent GEICO commercial with tag team has taken me back to the spring of 1993. And made me really think about Whoop, there it is, by tag team versus Whoop, there it is by 95. Sell. The course is almost identical. Minus the spelling of the whoop and or WOOT in the title, subject matter. Kind of similar. I feel like tag jeans, the writings a little stronger. Lyrically, it's a little bit more poetic. Both of them are you know, pretty much worldwide sports Hanson's at this point. Yes, absolutely. AT Anybody that has been to a football game or owns any of the 385 editions have now That's What I Call Music, you've definitely heard SS both songs platinum at the minimum, in fact, the whoop version of it multi platinum and the WOOT version, platinum, both of them and not 100. And just absolutely successful in and of their own right. But it's been that continuation through sports and advertising that has made these songs of the millennium in many ways. AT I mean, they open the door for Who let the dogs out many other one hit wonder classics. SS We're gonna feature the song, who let the dogs out on another one hit history, because there's actually quite a bit more behind the scenes about that particular song as well. So hold those thoughts on that particular song. But yeah, but styling. AT I mean, I'm interested, I'm looking forward to that episode.
