Testing Johnny Knoxville's Music Knowledge

Before we start the music, just introduce yourself. Hello, excuse me. I'm Johnny Knoxville. Welcome to Trackstar. Thank you. Here you go. All right. I'm going to play you some songs. You just have to tell me who the artist is. Shine a light by the rolling stones. I love this isn't Jack S. Best in the Last. It's the last song of the movie in the credits. And I just wanted to cut a credits bed to this song. That's all I did for months before. It was drive around and edit that in my head. And then we had to take it to Mick and Keith to see if they would allow us to use the song. And I don't think Mick Jagger was familiar with Jack S. But we presented it to them. They watched it and said, yes. And thank you. To me, it was the only song to end Jack S on. Oh, boy. Here we have Corona by the Minutemen, which is our theme song. When we made the show, we needed a song for opening credits. And I took this to Spike and Jeff. And it was an easy one to present because they love the Minutemen. Hi, I'm Johnny Knoxville. Welcome to Jack S. That whole album, by the way, that's a classic. In Mike Watt, you know, we lost the boom. But Mike Watt is just one of the godfathers of the punk rock movement. And they have a great book. Our band could be your life. I think that's a title. Yeah, and to be able to, you know, get them money ever so often. And anyone deserves it. It's those guys that song. When they play it at the beginning, like in that recording, I feel like you guys edited it. Yeah, there's a great. And then there's a long break, right? Yeah, I was just like, no, we like just cut it down. Doesn't, I don't think it compromises the song that we know. You know how many people would hear that? Like younger people hear that and they think that's the jackass song. They don't even know. Right. I know. Please, if you do anything, get double nickels on the dime and listen to it. They're ready to test something. They said we look suspicious. But I believe Paul by Willie Nelson. It's a story of Willie's friendship with his drummer, Paul English. Yeah, Willie was having trouble getting paid after the show. And after he hired Paul English, he never, ever had trouble getting paid after the show. Paul grew up in the underworld and for it worth. They would bring in Paul as a mediator because his word was final. Nobody fucked with Paul English. He carried multiple guns on him. And I think they were discharged a number of times. Please look into Paul English. We know this kind of music. What? Outlaw country. Yeah, I love. Yeah, what do you grow up on? Is that that? When did you discover punk rock? Not until I moved out to LA, really. My friends from a band called Wax. We were actually very influential to me, period, not just music wise. Like if you go back and look at pictures of soda pop, they're guitarist. He's going to be mysteriously dressed like a lot of the things that I wear. When did you start wearing converse? The guys from Wax will probably wear a converse. If you're going to be-- Oh, this is my cousin, Roger Allen Wade, singing. If you're going to be dumb, you got to beat up. And it's become our theme song. This song "Tags of My Heart Tricks." He's my first cousin and I grew up idolizing him and I still do. And I'm lucky enough to get to do a radio show with him once a week on Outlaw Country. It's a highlight of my week to get to talk to him and do the show with him. That's my brother. All right. How'd you get hired? Let me put my foot down on your foot. Oh, my God. This is both, like, both harder, right? This is Banana and your fruit basket. Yes. We play him on our radio show all the time and it's never a disappointment. All his songs are like-- This is more of my wiener. Your biscuits are big enough for me. Don't get mad this time. If you want my wiener, you'll get me used all up there in my mind. Better please want my wiener. Just-- it was not double on Tondra. It's single on Tondra. If you don't pay attention, you're like, oh, this is just a class of all. This is so blue-sob and all. You just-- wait. What's he talking about? ♪ Hands down your brooder house ♪ This is the pill by Loretta Lane. She means so much to country music. And to, like, feminism. She was, like, the pill is like, you know what? Okay, you go to cheat on me. That's okay. I have the pill. I can go live exactly how I want to live. And it was so controversial at the time that a lot of radio stations wouldn't even play it. And God forbid that you ever mess around on Loretta Lane. A lot of her songs end in her beating her man's ass. And she would. There's one song she sings with Ernest Tab. It's called "Sweet Thing." And the song is, he waits until his wife gets in the shower. And then he goes down to the bar to cheat. He can't even make it until she's done with the shower. ♪ And if she catches her sweet thing, run it around ♪ ♪ I know there'll be the devil to pay ♪ ♪ She'll come blowin' like a cyclone right through that door ♪ And she would perform in like in a big white prom dress and sing and just wave to the audience the whole time. It's impossible not to love Loretta Lane. ♪ You know so much about you ♪ This makes me emotional. Like they're gonna have my sunglasses on. Run wood. Yes. And it's my wife's song. She's got me emotional. By the way, I cry a lot lately. I don't know why in the last few years. See, he's giving me a hug. You boys had hugs when you grew up. I can tell. I swear to God, I cried when I watched the last Jackass movie. Coming to an end is very emotional. I've described it as like putting down a dog you love, but you know it's time. Just in case you want to make another one. No, we're done. We could. You know what? The fire hoses are legit. Like you turn it all the way up, they pound the shit out of you. ♪ Motherfucker got fucked up ♪ ♪ 'Cause he got in the way ♪ ♪ Not a lot of things to say ♪ Folk, youk. Folk, youk. Motherfucker got fucked up because he got in the way. Amy Nelson, Willie Nelson's daughter. And Kathy got three. What do you got three's granddaughter? Come on. This is one of my favorite bands. They have the most gorgeous voices and the harmonies. And they just sing the nautious songs. My daughter's a realtor in Austin, Texas. And my real last name is Clap. And there was a text chain going around and talking about her realty or something. What my daughter does. And Kathy's like, the clap you want, like the taglet. So I bought it. I was like, that's great. I bought a billboard with my daughter's face on it in Austin with their phone number. And that was a tagline, the clap you want. So thank you, Kathy. And thank you, Folk, youk, for all that amazing music. ♪ Motherfucker got fucked up ♪ C-K-Y. Yeah, C-K-Y. That's the start of Jackass. We were doing big brother videos on the West Coast and BAM in Ryan Don and Chris Rab. We're doing their videos on the East Coast. And when we started Jackass, we asked BAM and those guys if they wanted to be a part of it. ♪ Motherfucker got fucked up ♪ And we joined forces. C-K-Y. His brother Jess is on drums and just the sweetest guy. We love that band. It's 25 years, right? 26, 25. 26? Yeah. Did you think that one day this will be on movies, one day this will be so influential? Was there any part of you that saw any of this happening? I would be lying if I said, yes, like we didn't know, man. We were just trying to do something that lit us up. Well, I'm Johnny Knoxville, United States of America. And I'll be doing a little ironball on self-defense equipment. Hit me! We were very fortunate to find each other because that doesn't happen often in life. It's people that you want to show up to work with every day. When you find like-minded people, you find your tribe or whatever you want to call it, it's special. You just want to work with people you like. It is fun to work with assholes sometimes and get those stories, but it's not really sustainable. One more song. Ah. It was just thinking. I love Leon Russell. Elton John, who idolized Leon. It's odd to think, you know, Elton John being who's like, who does he look up to? Leon Russell. And he recorded an album with them later in his career and it really helped Leon, you know, his confidence and his, you know, financially. Leon's the man. Beautiful. Beautiful white hair. And maybe he was a big influence on the reason Willie grew his hair long. Because Willie loved Leon too. And you got like Elton John and Willie Nelson. That's what it was. Who do you love? Who do they love? Yeah. That's kind of like a little hidden trick. Yeah, yeah. Getting deeper into music is like, oh, I love this. Who do they like to listen to? And you find more stuff that way. I think it's a 73 or 74 picnic of Willie Nelson. And Leon is like the amb-- see and he's hammered and he's out there with his belly out and just introducing everybody. You know, you know, you know, I went out of Nashville my two long go out and I dropped down there too. So I think like I'll be drunk with the demo everywhere I go. That's it. You have to watch that. But you don't have to. These are just recommendations everybody. You know, you do have to watch. Samurai cop. Samurai cop is fucking terrible. But hilarious. Also Jack S best in the last comes out June 26th. Please go check it out. Also very funny. It's so good to me. Hey, good to meet you, man. Keep up. Turning people on the music. Thank you. That's awesome. Much appreciated. All right. I've got
