Ep. 12: Hiding Behind the Moon

VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack

Hiya! My name's Terry J. Aman and in this, my 12th episode of VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack titled "Hiding Behind the Moon," I focus on artists in my music collection whose names begin with the letter J.

My title track takes me in a different direction for this set. Straight out the gate, I highlight the late Jeff Hanson's "Hiding Behind the Moon" is only in my collection in the first place because I heard it in a first season episode of "Nip/Tuck."

And so many songs by J-named artists trace their pathway into my collection by way of soundtracks and other media engagement I decided to lead with my Sparks entries, because with a few exceptions, most of them are by artists with one song in my collection. Apart from Jeff Hanson, this list includes Jace Everett, Jack White and Alicia Keys, Janet Seidel, Jem, Joshua Henry, John C. Reilly, Joe Purdy, Joyce Kennedy, Julia Migenes, Jan August, Jack Johnson and Jared Halley.

In Influences, artists with full LPs in my collection, I talk about Jefferson Airplane's "Surrealistic Pillow," Joss Stone's "The Soul Sessions," Jewel's "Pieces of You" and "Spirit" and Joan Osborne's "Relish."

In Breakouts, artists with multiple songs in my collection, I talk about finding a couple Journey tracks in my collection I know were taped off the radio back in the 1980s, some of the most Gen X music I own. Also, more from Joshua Henry and Jared Halley and songs by Jason Mraz.

And in a second pass at Sparks, other artists with one song in my collection, I Have Jay-Z's collaboration with Linkin Park, Jethro Tull, Jesus Jones, Johnny Cash, John Lennon and John Denver, Janis Ian, Johnny Rivers and Joss Whedon.
