-->'''Todd:''' "[[Music/{{Nirvana}} Smells Like Teen Spirit]]"? It's fine. "[[Music/TupacShakur California Love]]"? I mean it's good. "[[Main/TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Stand Out]]" from ''WesternAnimation/AGoofyMovie''? Look, they're all classic songs, they just weren't "Jump Around."

--->'''Todd:''' I think maybe banking on Gregg Alexander's boyish sex appeal was also a mistake. Like, 'what if Music/{{Beck}} thought he was [[Music/TheDoors Jim Morrison]]?' Well, [[GoneHorriblyWrong now you know.]]

Added DiffLines:

* Todd describes the lead singer's career as a music critic and admits he's waiting to be contacted and told ''exactly'' why his review sucks [[LetsSeeYouDoBetter by someone who's a much better writer, critic, ''and'' musician than him]].

None

Added DiffLines:

* Todd flatly and awkwardly noting the song ends with kazoos and mimics them.[[note]]Although as one comment note, there aren't actually in the song, instead being saxophones played at the same time the band sings[[/note]].

* Todd initially pretending that the song is about UsefulNotes/AlCapone killing the band Music/{{Chicago}} (who Todd has previously expressed pretty pure loathing of in other videos), and admitting it might be for the best, since he feels '74 [[SeasonalRot was their last good year]].

** The song's English writers playing fast and loose with history and geography, including starting off with the narrator's father being a cop on the "East Side" of Chicago, which would put his beat at the bottom of Lake Michigan (Callender and Miller later admitted they confused it with New York), or Capone -- a gladhanding, publicity-conscious guy in real life who always resorted to a bribe rather than kill a police officer and risk the law coming down -- ordering his gang into an all-out war with the CPD that leaves 100 cops dead. By the sheer scale of the carnage, Todd assumes "Generalissimo Capone" is trying to instigate a coup and have himself declared dictator-for-life.

-->'''Todd:''' The perceived Baby Boomer wisdom always said TheSeventies were worse than TheSixties for music, and I finally get it. It's not that the good music was less good. It's that your average music got ''so much worse''. Like, it wasn't Creator/{{Motown}} anymore, it wasn't garage rock, it was shit like this.

** At one point, Todd mentions that "The Night Chicago Died" was included on the album ''[[https://www.allmusic.com/album/70s-party-classics-killers-mw0000597914 70's Party Killers]]'', a genre-spanning novelty compilation of some of the decade's most notoriously schmaltzy, overplayed hits... which ''also'' features Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods' cover of "Billy", as well as two other hits of '74 -- Tony Orlando & Dawn's "Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Old Oak Tree" and Paul Anka's "Having My Baby" -- both of which get mentioned later in the video. It all adds credence to the theory that 1974 really ''might'' be the worst year in music.
