Song #189
The Court Jester by thquib (feat. Fukase)
It was released December 30, 2020
Fun Fact: This song is about an exiled jester who is going back to the kingdom which exiled him in an attempt to take advantage of the king’s weakness and seize power. Throughout the song, he talks about how he feels the king’s cruelty is destroying the kingdom and why he, the jester, must take charge. Eventually, the ridiculous situation becomes too much for the jester, and he bursts out laughing (making the jester’s sanity rather questionable). Finally, at the end of the song, the jester shows his true motive, which is to start a revolution so that ordinary fools like himself, not kings, will rule.

Song #180
Back In the Saddle by Aerosmith
It was released in 1976 in their album Rocks
Fun fact: A real bullwhip was intended to be used for the whip effects and hours were spent trying to get it to crack. The band members ended up cut up and hurt without making any progress. Eventually, the band decided the whip effects would be created by whirling a 30-foot cord from the studio, then by firing a cap gun to create the crack of the whip (the sound effects are more prominent in the Quadraphonic mix of the album).

Song #177
Devil Town by Cavetown
It was released on November 9, 2015
Fun Fact: The song follows the trials and tribulations of a young person’s life, exploring themes of Divorce, Anxiety, and Fear – Experiences many young people can relate to. Also weaved throughout are subtle implications of insanity and mania, and imagery suggests that the young person in question is possibly in some sort of mental asylum: Dressing gowns, forgetting their own name, spiders in shoes, and the actual name of “devil town” all have connotations commonly associated with mental asylums.
