The last stretch of reveals will help make up for that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, please. Basically the first thing I read about Bon Jovi for my write up was about his parents and how both of them were former marines and his mother was also a playboy model.

Ash12345 Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 The next reveal doesn't have very good recurrent stats but maybe that's just because his music is from the early Hot 100 days and from a genre that's not very popular on Spotify (a lot of country songs), and because his points come more from having a lot of solo written songs rather than a lot of huge hits.

Or was there a sample somewhere?? Very talented young producer in the 90s. He prolly still got it but not sure why he's not as prominent as he used to.

Ash12345 Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) 73. John D. Loudermilk Points: 18,831 John D Loudermilk grew up in a Baptist family in North Carolina and although he had a solo career, most of his hits were for other singers. When he was working for a local TV station as a young man, they agreed to air a song he wrote as a teenager, "A Rose and a Baby Ruth", which led to it getting recorded by George Hamilton IV and reaching #6 on the Top 100 chart (the predecessor to the Hot 100) in 1956. He wrote a lot of country and pop hits in the 60s and 70s and returned to the charts in 1994 when Tim McGraw sampled his biggest hit "Indian Reservation" in his song "Indian Outlaw". Most streamed Hot 100 hits on Spotify 22m - Indian Outlaw (Tim McGraw) 5m - Indian Reservation (Paul Revere & The Raiders) 2m - Tobacco Road (The Nashville Teens) 2m - Abilene (George Hamilton IV) 1m - Sad Movies (Sue Thompson) Table of Points @Green @Revenge @Witch Privilege @trainsskyscrapers @Insanity @Fitzswiftie @Juanny @JawBreaker @alfonso12 @Weed @Nip Tuck @Cherry123 @eli's_rhythm @1DES @princedonte @Alpha Male @Timber @jordanjm @SoulKiwi@Ohno @Mezik@DougAF @Chainsmoker@suburbannature @Erotic@mcohen@ChatshireCat@cuneytb @Arxane @1989 @Mr. Duff @ECNEICSNOC @BtDecember @pavi @Kylie Jenner @deGonzz @Jorq @Dibbles Edited December 22, 2019 by Ash12345 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that some of his biggest hits have him writing about sensitive issues in a rather clueless way doesn't help though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash12345 Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 The original version of "Indian Reservation" recorded under the name "Pale Faced Indian" by Marvin Rainwater in 1960 was written from a perspective that was sympathetic to the plight of Native Americans, and Marvin Rainwater was apparently of 1/4 Cherokee, and grew up in Kansas, but this lyric is a bit of a head scratcher They took away our way of life Our tomahawk and the huntin' knife And the old teepee we all loved so They're using now just for a show While for a song from 1960, it's a nice effort to mention how white man was appropriating elements of Native American culture such as teepees for show, the song is sung from the perspective of a Cherokee man, and the Cherokee were a Southeast Woodlands people who did not live in teepees like the tribes of the Great Plains did. Maybe Marvin Rainwater picked up on the way the native Americans from where he grew up (Kansas) were portrayed and latched onto that because he didn't have an intact connection with his ancestors, and that's why he didn't correct Loudermilk's misconceptions and was ok with singing that lyric? That misconception lived on in the first charting version of the song (#20), the 1968 cover recorded by British pop singer Don Fardon which also makes a reference to white man taking away his "prairie knife" although they are removed from the Paul Revere & The Raiders cover which reached #1 in 1971. It's still not as bad as the trainwreck of cliches that is Tim McGraw's "Indian Outlaw" though, which samples "Indian Reservation" and is the song that launched his career as a country singer, reaching #8 on the country charts and #15 on the Hot 100.
