Hey, it's Mike Waters from the Waters Wake Up Call.
Oh, it was a glorious tunes day this morning.
With all this divisiveness in the world, I thought we needed to come together and play some of those tunes that unify us.
I
have a song you can bring people together.
Yeah.
A song by the Young Bloods.
Come on, people now.
Smile on your brother.
Everybody get together.
Time to love one another when?
Right now.
Yeah, Larry
knows.
Yo, you make everybody's day.
You know that, Mike, when
you talk
to her?
No, I don't.
Yes, you do.
You play the great music, you got great humor, you got great knowledge of music, and we're still lucky to have you.
You know, they say that if you make one person happy, that's enough.
So I know Larry's happy.
Maybe the other 10 people who are listening feel the same way.
I hope so.
I
wonder how many people you do actually reach.
Thousands, hundreds of thousands.
No, honestly, I think it's 11.
Yes,
sir.
Yeah, but I appreciate it, Larry.
I really do.
It's always
good to have you listening.
Oh, love
it!
You're the first to mention that one.
I didn't even think of
it.
Oh!
God bless the wife.
You know why the wife thought of it?
Because you two are happy together.
That's why.
Yeah, this is lawn pooper
in case you weren't interested.
Lawn pooper!
Yes, of course I'm interested.
I talked to you, what, Friday we were talking nicknames and your mom gave you a nickname of a friend's dog, Skip.
And I thought maybe she named you after a dog because you liked pooping on the lawn or something.
Yeah, okay, that was a great call.
I really enjoyed that.
Did ya?
Yeah,
it's
great to talk to you.
Yeah, you too, man.
You too, Lon Pooper.
And thank you for introducing yourself as Lon Pooper again.
I appreciate that.
I'm glad it's stuck.
It's stuck, and I love it.
Oh, good.
I'm sure that's probably why you and your wife are happy together, because you're never taking up time in the bathroom.
Well, we just celebrated our 22nd anniversary a couple months ago.
Happy anniversary!
And again, it's because you give her lots of bathroom time while you're outside pooping on the lawn.
Yeah, that's right.
That's it.
All right, man.
Well, I'll tell you what.
I'll play the turtles happy together.
Brilliant choice, tell your wife.
Coming together, evidently, and I'm all in on that.
Yeah, man.
It's a come-together Tuesday.
But it's all about unity, man.
I
love
it, man.
I gotta have
me some who.
Who?
And the song is called Join Together.
Join Together with the band.
Yeah.
And you know, I consider that one of the poster songs for Come Together Tunes Day.
It could be also called Join Together Tunes Day.
And I remember when that was a huge who song, but you don't hear it much anymore.
It's kind of faded away a little bit.
It should never have, so...
No, you're right.
You don't.
But who people want that
song?
Oh, it's a great song, and you're right.
It's a perfect unifying kind of a song.
Especially when we're listening to you.
Yeah, that's for sure.
Because it's the DJ, not the song that makes the music move along.
That's right.
Well, thank you,
man.
I appreciate it.
We'll have a Coke and I'll at least play the commercial jingle of nothing else.
All right.
Thank you, man.
I appreciate you
listening.
Canned heat, let's work together.
Let's work together.
Come on, come on.
That is a good one.
Let's work together.
I
believe, don't they say, every girl, every boy, and a man?
Yeah.
I think we need to put women in there as well, so it can be fully inclusive.
Yes, you definitely need to do that.
Not just the boys, the girls, and the men.
I don't know what canned heat was thinking there, but I think with that one little change, I think it works perfectly.
I give it a perfect 10.
Cause really, if we were all to work together, would we have any of the problems we have today?
Like it unifies people with loose feet?
Or maybe dancing?
Oh yeah, once somebody hears that song, everybody knows what's going on.
Oh yeah, everybody has to loosen your feet.
You gotta be footloose and fancy free.
Exactly.
Yeah, well we should play that song and maybe that'll get everybody together.
Perfect.
I do a karaoke show at a bar on Saturdays.
There's two songs that always get to people all together.
Okay.
Margaritavet.
Yes.
And Sweet Caroline.
I don't think there's anyone who's breathing who doesn't do the bop bop bop and... That just wakes up the whole bar.
Yeah, that is such a group communal thing.
It's really become even more so than when it came out.
I mean, I don't think when that first came out people were going bop bop bop.
No, no.
Not like that.
There might have been a couple of people, but not the whole bar.
Yeah, but those couple of people, they were weird.
Now, now
they're
cool like the rest of
us.
Now
you're weird if you don't do it.
Exactly.
Well, hollowed out, if it isn't my favorite Quaker trucker.
And you're thinking of a song that unites us.
Gotta be queen.
We are the champion.
And we will
rock you.
Yeah.
Brian
May wrote We Will Rock You as an anthemic, bringing people together, whether it be at a sporting event or if you're at a queen concert.
Even when I was in school, I was in elementary school when that song came out.
And I remember one kid started doing the, and he stomped his feet and
and then banged his desk.
And within five seconds, every kid in class was doing that.
It brought us all together.
It was a very bonding thing in my elementary class.
One of the good
ones.
And then you go into, we are the champions.
And obviously that is another one.
Two songs that go so well together in both.
Here's the thing.
This just hit me in the head, Hall of Notes.
You got two songs that united together that unite all of us.
Now
you'll have to play the song so I can sit there and bump, bump, bump, stop my feet on the floorboard.
Bump, bump, bump, and clam my hands on the steering wheel, man.
Yeah,
yeah, floorboard and the
steering wheel, and you'll be going all over the place.
You may have already played this.
If you have, I'm sorry.
You should never apologize before you do what you're possibly going to apologize for.
Come together.
I have played it.
So you should be sorry.
Sorry story, that's me.
Do you have a plan B?
Bohemian Rhapsody.
Oh, yeah.
Great one I didn't think of.
I think about the four guys
sitting in a car headbanging together.
Well,
yeah, Wayne's World.
Absolutely.
It's a perfect scene.
We all relate to that scene.
And the scene brought us all together.
That's right.
I think that's even better than come together.
All right.
Weekday mornings, 5.30 to
10.
