Showdown: Round 1, Fight 6

Backdoor Man vs. Diddle My Skittle

Listening to Backdoor Man
by Howlin' Wolf, 1960

Sample lyrics:
“ I eats more chicken than any man seen
I am a backdoor man ”

Sarah: I don't even know if eating chicken is really a reference to pussy. I'm just working by the rule of thumb that any reference to food in a blues song is sexual. I hope it's real, because I really like it!

Galen: It is awesome, but that's not a very big reference.

Sarah: True. The song is mostly about adultery, but he focusses on satisfying his women, which is kind of fun.

Listening to Diddle My Skittle
by Peaches, 2002

Sample lyrics:
“ Come diddle my skittle
'Cause there's only one peach with the hole in the middle ”

Galen: Huh.

Sarah: You look so oppressed right now.

Galen: Yeah… it's a more definite reference, but it's a dumb song.

Rebecca: Yeah, it's dumb.

Sarah: That was a bit of a party stopper.

Rebecca: Ah, some people really like Peaches. For me, I'd rather listen to Salt 'n' Pepper. It's true that every Peaches song sounds like “Push It.”

Galen: Howlin' Wolf wins.

Rebecca: Can I say I don't want to vote for either of them?

Sarah: You have duties, judge. Who loses the most?

Rebecca: I'd say Peaches. So Howlin' Wolf wins.

Sarah: It's ok. You can eliminate him in the next round.

Winner: Backdoor Man
