Isaac, Taylor and Zac laugh as Taylor clarifies "listen we have not screwed up your song ideas. They are sped up, not screwed up", in response to a question from Hanson.net Member Megan Vazquez. On this episode the guys talk about unreleased songs and alternate versions, as well as their least favorite songs on albums. Not to mention the always a strange "What's On My Mind" and always filled with curveballs "Game Time" where band members play against each other and members win prizes. There is also Music... SO CHECK IT OUT!!!

We have a second two time reporter. Cool. ?
10 August 2003.. I'll have to go look at the transcript, but when I was researching for my Hanson biography, I read every transcript and listened to every reporter interview (recordings started July 2009 I think), so I'll go look at that and see if I remember it.
Observations: I was trying to understand what Hanson was talking about when they were pronouncing badminton. It just sounded strange. And by the way, curling is so cool. Maybe even as cold as ice....
The aeroplane comments were so funny. I was going with 21 Oscar nominations. And headphones being a pain in the *** is unusual imagery.
Bridges Of Stone was going to be released on This Time Around Live. In case you missed it in one of the scavenger hunts... Zac's birthday show in 2000. Archive to hear the song.
And what an interesting perspective on A Minute Without You.. that was my favourite song until Watch Over Me.

I can actually think of a few repeat reporters from people I know, Robin. It has happened a few times, say, since RGB Tour and forwards.
Gotta love how Bridges Of Stone was brought up again! I guess we won't give up until a version of it gets officially released. I'd love a whole new recording of it.
As far as A Minute Without You, haha, I almost agree 😆 I don't hate it, but it's the one song that could really use a break from setlists, being a non-single and such a regular throughout all the eras. I can sometimes enjoy it and have fun with it, but it might time to let another Isaac lead shine for a while?
And I'm so glad the connection to Travis' Driftwood was asked about! I'm really surprised they actually denied it being a conscious reference. The song did come out in 1999, so it's possible they'd heard it before writing Crazy Beautiful. And there are some other references to the first two Travis albums on Underneath that I've always wondered about. Plus songs like Misery and When You're Gone sound a lot like Travis production-wise especially. But yes, now I'm not sure I can hear the lyrics the same way ever again after what they said about being "naughty " 🫠

Umm sorry, not the first two Travis albums, but more like the 2nd and 3rd which were a lot more popular. The Man Who from 1999, and The Invisible Band from 2001.

Robin, when HTP first started, Leigh had mentioned that HTP reporters would be counted separately from tour reporters.
I agree with Megan & Minna re: Minute Without You.
And y'all, I don't know what else "liquid melancholy dreams" could possibly mean, lol 🙉

Can’t wait to listen to this episode! I’m saving it for my 50-mile run on August 31, because it’ll give me some much-needed laughs on the way round! 😃

Cool conversation about songs, especially unreleased. By the way, very good additions to Underneath: Complete. I didn´t now Let You Go, I loved it. Another unreleased I like and know nothing about is Sun & Sky. You know once I submitted 5 manuscripts to an editor, but I hated one of them, so I secretly kept rewriting it until version 6, when I furiously deleted it. Months later I opened the magazine and there it was, the chosen, facing me, the version 1. lol The writtings, songs, etc kind of gain their own way after being created.

Holly, yes the liquid dreams part was always pretty obvious, but I never knew what to make of the weird "driftwood" part, and now I just can't unsee certain metaphors 🙃 I always thought it was just an awkward Travis reference, and now they're saying it wasn't conscious, and the lyric is even weirder for that!

Listen. I would ABSOLUTELY think someone was cool if they said they were a badminton champion...that was my FAVE sport growing up! And yes, curling gets brought up often, and we watch it as a family. Oh did I mention, I AM Canadian hahaha.
