We were wrong about these songs, and we're not afraid to admit it.

In this episode of Play Record, we take up the question of what creates the cringe factor in certain songs, and what leads us to eventually say, "Actually, this is pretty great."

Tyler gets a little fired up about music snobbery and makes some recommendations about feral cats, and Jessica confronts her past self's interest in Limp Bizkit.

We also discuss one of our favorite music-related books of all time and provide our very own Cringe Mix.
