Ok. I don’t know else to put in a request like this but here goes… I think you guys would love watching the Pop Star Academy docuseries on Netflix (and i think it would be popular for you to get views…). It follows the making of a global girl group using the k-pop method of training and development over almost 2 years (in 8-ish episodes) narrowing down from 120k+ auditions to the final group of 6 girls. The girls that are in the group now recently played for a crowd of 85k at lollapaloza and got their first VMA. They are on their way to potentially being huge. I was tempted to submit some of their stuff for TRL. But I think It would be interesting to watch you watch the show and try to guess who makes it into the final group. It’s really interesting to get an inside look at the pop music industry machine and the k-pop method and how they develop these girls talent. I think you’d actually like it a lot.

I believe Yungblud wrote Zombie for/to his grandmother who died of alcohol addiction

christine.ro

And the zombie reference is just feeling dead or low on inside but still alive.... that's applicable to so many people

Brianna Jaris

I've sent some requests in for Yungblud, please join me down the rabbit hole

Brianna Jaris

Please stop comparing Niall to Harry. Yes they were both in 1D but they are doing completely different styles of music…

Shannon Zinke Azure

Yaaaasss the 90s country 🥰

April Green

Another thing about the GaGa medley, when they show the reactions from the crowd, you can truly see people realize in real-time how talented she is and that it's not all a "clown show." Up until this performance a lot of people didn't take her seriously.

Cassandra Schultz

Woohoo…more Niall love!

Bex

Don’t sleep on Niall! He’s got great music! I love his discography and I think you will too!

Kayla B

I agree. They should do more Niall-like the river.

Christine Irving

Omg the GaGa medley! I knew you'd love that

Cassandra Schultz

Ahhhh…well now that you mention it!!

Bex

Does Yungblud not remind you a little of My Chemical Romance. Like The Black Parade kind of thing??

Lizel

Their story is truly so incredible. I’m constantly fascinated by their journey!!

Bex

I'd love to see you do Niall's full albums (NY-ull HOR-un, btw). Much like Harry, they're all good, but there's a definite progression from the first to the second to the third. (This song is on the third.)

Lara Lee

YES

Bex

My hind brain must have heard you talkin' about me. I hope we are liking Niall because that's my thing. lol

Ellie's Edits

Me too!!! Lennon and Maisy are my favorite singers on the show but I was thinking of requesting a Clare Bowen Sam Palladio one because their songs are just SO GOOD…their harmonies and blends are perfect

Ramsey-Michele Pruitt

Don’t forget Adele’s album 30!!!! Such an incredible one

Jacquie

Saved this to watch on the plane as I fly to Virginia!! Perfect way to pass the time! ✈️

Jacquie

i just sent in my request so i was really surprised to hear my name so soon! looking forward to seeing more niall (nye-ull or like nile river) reactions!! he’s so underrated it’s insane. i’ve seen him live 7 times (and counting) and i will never get tired of attending because his performance ability and infectious personality is on another level. save my life live is so unmatched! we created a chant to scream “niall” after “when you say my name, i like the way it sounds” and his face was priceless cause it got so loud (you can hear it in the live album version of the song from tampa)! also happy 15 years to all my directioners, 1D love for infinity!! ❤️‍🩹

ashlee kay

I danced with my stepdad to Believing by Lennon and Charles (Deacon and Maddie) at my wedding. I loveee the show and the music from it.

Jessica Rae

Absolutely dying that you guys did Sanctuary from Nashville. The songs from that show are some of my absolute favorites. The 3 people singing in that song are Lennon and Maisy Stella and Charles Esten. I will now be requesting another song from the show thank you very much. 😂

Jessica Rae

Coolest caller ever

Bex

Good ole Nialler :)

Bex

Big up my London Nanny! You can see where I get my awesome musical taste from now.

robyngirlwonder

One thing to think about when it comes to 1D, is that they all initially auditioned on the X-Factor as solo artists. They weren’t great individually at first, which is why they were put in a group and they made each other better! But as they all grew together and individually, they eventually had the chops to each be a solo artist. This is different from a lot of other boy bands, like Backstreet Boys or NSync, who pretty much were all always meant to just be in a group (except for Justin Timberlake of course). All that to say, it makes sense why almost every single 1D member has had a successful solo career in comparison to other boy bands. I hope that all made sense LOL but i just think it’s an interesting thing to think about.

Ramsey-Michele Pruitt

Also I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Chicks!! And I was singing along with you to every word of all the 90s country!!! So nostalgic and genuinely such great music

Ramsey-Michele Pruitt

Omg Nashville is SO GOOD! The music is AMAZING. Except for Connie Britton, pretty much the whole cast are REAL musicians and a lot of them actually still tour together today, years after the show ended. A lot of country artists made cameos on the show to kind of give their stamp of approval, a lot of them saying that from the perspective of country musicians, the show felt very realistic. Sanctuary is one of my favorites so I’m so glad it was requested! It was sung by Lennon and Maisy Stella; Lennon Stella is an incredible musician who has a couple really great albums. Her little sister, Maisy, is an amazing singer as well but she’s pursued more of an acting career than a music career. The man in the song, Charles Esten is a musician and actor who’s been around for a while; you might remember him as Chip from Who’s Line is it Anyway! Sorry that was really long, but i just felt like i needed to validate how good and authentic Nashville is LOL (it jumps the shark a little bit in later seasons but overall it’s great! 😂)

Ramsey-Michele Pruitt

May I ask again where is my request with Kelly Clarkson?

Richard

1. Thank for the Niall request, Monyka! 💜 Niall is amazing!! After Harry, he has my favourite sound out of the 1D guys. You should listen to his albums... Highly recommended!! 2. Lady Gaga can do it all! She's one of my all time favourite artists. A triple threat! 👏 Fun episode! (:

LuuuuuM

Coolie’s never seen the HUNGER GAMES?!?!

TiffK83

lol this is EXACTLY how Cooley and I share music with each other off camera. Love this comment

The Twerk Ethic Show

This is an excellent question - the process is somewhat curated. We sometimes pick something that nobody has requested, and we sometimes pick something many people have requested. Also, sometimes we'll curate the episode by mood. Today's had a vibe, but it was different than last week's episode's vibe. It's more of an art than a science 😉 I spend a few hours curating each episode before we film. That said, please keep on requesting because we're looking for both examples. Are you Cathryn from Santa Cruz? Maybe you'll be on next week's episode.........

The Twerk Ethic Show

Just curious- do y'all only select things that were requested multiple times? Would make sense if that's what you do- but if that's the case I'll probably stop submitting requests for anything I know for sure no one else is going to request. 😅

Cathryn

So glad you reacted to more Niall - he's a brilliant musician. I would love if you listened to Louis Tomlison's album "Faith in the Future". Also unrelated but I also think you would love Djo's album "The Crux" since you liked one of his singles so much :)

Ania

Yay for listening to my request. One of the more hidden Adele tracks. Thank you for the cool points!! Haha! Glad you liked it :)

Ashley

absolutely!!! https://www.speakpipe.com/TheTwerkEthicShow

The Twerk Ethic Show

Yay Monyka! Great request!

Granny Jen

loved it! Will check out more

Bex

😂 Can't even imagine the laughs you two have off camera

Bex

Bex, are we twins?? LOL

Granny Jen

yes me too, loved that connection!

Bex

I am so late to the party. SO many things I want to say. LOL 1. Seriously do love the editing. This show somehow keeps getting better. 2. NIALL. Thanks Monyka. Great idea luring them in with the sax. 3. YUNGBLUD. Love that. Yes I think I sent live request of that. Just happy you heard it. 4. Yeah, my main mission in life is to get more Niall and Zayn on the channel. Harry is my fave but these guys are right behind playing in my home constantly. 5. Happy 15th anniversary to 1D!!! 6. Taylor, great recommendation!!

Bex

I love this show so much! When you were listening to The Chicks… It really reflects how I listen to music which is I get reminded of one song then I go on a rabbit hole of similar music I love!

Kate Kidd

isabel, thank you for the chicks request! i had several of their cds. they were the only country artists that i listened to for a long time. maybe because they were alanis adjacent, JT.

meld

Are you still taking call ins with the same celebrity crush prompt?

Linds K

The Anderson Hate gets me every episode 😆

Teaghan

Salem! ‘94-‘03 Where were you?

Cooley

I honestly completely forgot what Niall song I requested and i’m glad it was that one! 🤭 Excited for the upcoming Niall journey

Monyka

“Anderson, I don’t even know why you get up in the mornings” TOOK ME OUT 😭🤣

Monyka

A close 2nd moment of this episode is when we were listening to Adele and Cooley says: "stop staring at me" 🤣🤣🤣

The Twerk Ethic Show

I recommended CHVRCHES because I knew you'd immediately draw the Hayley reference. They fall a littleeee more on the electronic side of things than Paramore, but their stuff is SO GOOD. Thanks for including me on this episode, guys!

Taylor W.

🤣

The Twerk Ethic Show

Seriously, one of the hardest jobs. My mom was a nurse in a facility for patients with Alzheimer's and dementia for years, and I don't know how she did it. My brother is a first responder as well and I have to tell them to stop telling me stories all the time, JT, so I get that!

Taylor W.

Always Anderson

Teaghan

Nurse gang ✌️

Teaghan

Here for the standard "Jeez, Anderson!" comment. lol

Taylor W.

Monyka

Granny Jen

The Twerk Ethic Show
