Podcast: Bill and Frank’s Guilt-Free Pleasures
Episode: Eddie Money: "Take Me Home Tonight" (Ronnie Spector gets her due)
Description: Beyond its surface reading, "Take Me Home Tonight" is also about the revival of the careers of Eddie Money and Ronnie Spector. This song is a triumph. In today's episode, we examine the histories of both artists that ultimately converge into this top ten hit, we analyse the song, and we bring back (albeit briefly) the theme of tender-hearted werewolves in a guilt-free pleasure.
