We do this every day at this time where we get three of you on. We figure out what was number one on your 16th birthdays. Then we play the best song in full. First up to play birthday banger is Maddie. Hey, Maddie. Hi, Maddie.
Starting point is 00:00:30 Hi. Hi, guys. How's it going? Good. How are you, mate? Yeah, good, thanks. That's good. Just on my way home from work. Lovely.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Well, let's throw a birthday banger in there for you. I'm not sure we've got Maddie's one. We might have to come back to Maddie. I'm just looking at the songs we've got down the bottom. Maddie, we're going to bang you on hold and we'll come back to you, okay? Hang on a second. Let's go to Michael. Hi, Michael.
Starting point is 00:00:49 G'day, Mike. Hey, guys. How you going? Good, mate. How are you? Not too bad. Excellent. Michael, what's your birthday?
Starting point is 00:00:57 12th of June, 1996. Right. You were 16 in 2012 on the 12th of June. And, Michael, this is your birthday banger. Oh, no. Banger! No. You're Maroon 5.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Michael, how gutted are you to get Maroon 5 as your birthday banger? That takes me back to high school, man. That's a banger. Banger! Oh, I guess if this is the Wiz Khalifa version, it's okay. Why do you have such a thing against Maroon 5?
Starting point is 00:01:29 I actually quite like Maroon 5. Yeah. They're just so middle of the road. That's not what you say behind the scenes here. No, I do like Maroon 5.
Starting point is 00:01:36 I told you I bought songs for Jane on CD, okay? So you love moves like Jenga? No, I hate moves like Jenga more than anything. See, I mean... I just... It's your big birthday banger.
Starting point is 00:01:44 You want it to be exciting, you know? But Michael likes it and that's all that matters, okay, Michael? Yeah, I'm glad Michael likes it. I like it. Wait there. Linda. Hi, Linda. Hi, Linda.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Hello. Welcome to the show. Thank you. I've always wanted to do this just to give you guys a laugh. You might not even hear myself. Oh, you reckon? Of course we'll have it. And I bet I've got a feeling it'll be a good one. Let's start with your birthday.
Starting point is 00:02:10 It's the 21st of October, 1952. Oh no, you're right, we don't have it. Oh no, they didn't have music back then. It doesn't go back that far. Oh, we're just kidding, Linda. You were 16. In the 60s and in 1968 on the 21st of October, this was top in the charts.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Oh my god. Banger! What a classic. The Beatles! Linda, did you ever think you called up for a laugh and you've got an absolute stonker? What a classic. That Beatles movie is coming out this year.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Sir Peter Jackson has got his hands on like 65 hours of never before seen Beatles footage. Maybe 2021 is the year ZM finally plays the Beatles. I loved that movie yesterday. Have you seen that, Linda? It came out like last year or the year before. No. It's so good. It's all about the old Beatles catalogue and in one part,
Starting point is 00:03:12 Ed Sheeran tells the guy to change it from Hey Jude to Hey Dude. Hey Dude. Very good movie. Okay, wait there. We'll get Maddie back. Maddie, we've sorted it out now. Are you still with us? I am.

Starting point is 00:10:21 It's on the playlist. It won't be your birthday banger, though. Let's figure out what that is. What's your birthday? 11th of November, 92. All right. You were 16 in 2008 on the 11th of November. And in 2008, this had a number one hit.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Here's a fun fact. If you remember being an adult when this song came out, that was 13 years ago. Wow. How am I doing this? It's one of my mum's favourite songs, eh?

Starting point is 00:12:30 but Bon Jovi's on my no playlist. I love Bon Jovi. I know, I know. It's not personal, but if I'm being true to myself, I can't vote for her. What did Bon Jovi do to you? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:40 I don't know. Can I read my case? Yeah, you can. Go on. So if you've noticed today, I've got a really big birthday coming up next week. Oh, right. Okay. Are you 30? Yes.

Starting point is 00:13:07 and take us to tie break and take the decision out of my hands. I'm voting, living on a prayer for Sarah's birthday. Oh, thanks, Brie. You're welcome, mate. Let's see what's going to happen now. Oh, I hate being the bad guy. No, you can stay true to yourself.
Starting point is 00:13:23 I know I can stay true to myself. Because I know for a fact, I know the producers. Yeah, I know. I reckon they'll vote Bon Jovi. But you know I'm a semi-retired DJ and I like to read the room. You've got to take yourself out of the equation every now and then. You know, and you've got to look at the dance floor and go, who's out here?

There's one text there that says, best birthday banger ever, but I didn't feel the love. You know, I didn't feel the ebba.
Starting point is 00:26:57 I didn't feel that aroha for ebba coming through. Maybe people were too busy dancing. Look, I'll give it 15 seconds, and if it feels like the text machine is... Oh, you want to play Back to Back Abba. I want to. I want to. But I need more.
Starting point is 00:27:12 I need... You need some... Yeah. I mean, someone said, play Gimme, Gimme, Gimme. That's a banger. Yeah, that is a banger. Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, you love after midnight. Yeah.

Kylie Minogue was on Neighbours and then went into music. They kind of built her up to be the next Kylie Minogue. They did. And that song was big, but she didn't do all that much after.

Starting point is 00:39:58 I suppose you can work with it. It'll do. We love Tayo Cruz on Birthday Banger. This went off, yeah. Yeah. He's a bit of an unsung hero as far as this feature's concerned. But you're into it enough that if you won, you'd be happy, Rosie? Yeah, I drank it up on the radio on the way home.
Starting point is 00:40:12 Okay, good. That's all we need to know. That's a pretty good track. I mean, Tyo Cruz, he had all these great tracks, and then did you ever hear the song Take a Dirty Picture? With Kesha? Yeah. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:41:06 It's got that upbeat vibe for a Friday, right, Laura? Yeah, I reckon that's a good Friday banger. Is it better than Kerry Hilson? I like that song, but for a Friday? Yeah, right. I feel like I'm on Laura's page as well, I think. Yeah, I can feel that. Yeah, I can deal with that.
Starting point is 00:41:22 Or we could play Taya Cruz, Take a Dirty Picture. No, you can't. I think. Yeah, I can feel that. Yeah, I can deal with that. Or we could play Tayo Cruz, Take a Dirty Picture. No, you can't. I think that song's cancelled. Tayo got accused of soliciting nudes in that song. That was a joke, Clint made. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:41:36 It's clearly a joke. The song's called Take a Dirty Picture. I took a dirty picture. I opened up my dishwasher and just went clink. I'll do the dad jokes on this show, mate. Rosie, you just won birthday banger.

Starting point is 00:42:46 Play the start of Hangover. I think it's Hangover, guys. I got a hangover. Whoa. I've been drinking too much for sure. Is this it? I got a hangover. It's not Dirty Picture, so it might as well be this.
Starting point is 00:43:03 It's this one. Here we go. Double play. Double play. ZM, Brian Klaner, Tayo Cruz, double play for Birthday Banger today. That's Hangover. How does he make even a hangover sound fun? He makes it sound very fun.

Starting point is 00:45:08 Because I don't reckon it's even top five Rita Ora, but it's got something. You haven't heard it in ages. Has she got five? Has she got five? I'm just kidding. I love all of her music. It's kind of Shay. Hi, Shay.
Starting point is 00:45:20 G'day, Shay. Hi, how are you doing? Good, mate. How are you? Good, thank you. What's your birthday, Shay? 1st of October, Shay. Hi, how are you doing? Good, mate.

Starting point is 00:45:33 And in 2001, this was top of the charts. The Queen, Mary J. Blige. Surely got to be a winner. Surely got to be a winner. Surely got to be a winner. Love that song, Shay. That's an absolute banger. She's an icon. She did ZM's Friday Jams live a few years ago.
Starting point is 00:45:55 She's great. She's amazing. And that's a classic too, that song. Good year to be 16, I reckon, Shay. That's a good song. You happy? It was a great year. Yeah, good.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Shay, wait. What's Shay talking? Did. You happy? It was a great year. Yeah, good. Shay, wait. What's Shay talking? Did you hear it? It was a great year. Yeah, I don't really remember it, but it was a great year. Absolutely. Shay, you were only 16. What were you up to? I just mean I was really good at school and things like that.

Starting point is 00:46:32 Oh, excellent. Just getting home. Love it. Well, let's see if we can make it better. What's your birthday? It's the 12th of February, 1977. All right, you were 16 in 1993 on the 12th of February. And in the early 90s, this went to number one.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Uh-oh. Oh, no, Emily. Emily, you have what is commonly referred to as the Joker. It's the Joker card that trumps it all. Oh, does it really? Yeah, this song, just so you know, has never lost in Birthday Banger. The feature is largely built on this song.
Starting point is 00:47:14 And for this to not win, one of us would have to break ranks and vote against it. Wait, Emily, the way you're talking, I feel like you're not a fan. No, I don't mind the song, but I actually preferred Mary J. Blige. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Good to know, Emily. Good to know. Unfortunately, you don't ever vote, but we can take that into account. Now, Brie and I need to ask each other very clearly, and I'll start. Brie, are you willing to vote against Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You This Afternoon? I mean, you know, people might say that I'm not a big fan of Whitney Houston, even though I've named my dog after her and I have all the T-shirts.
Starting point is 00:47:58 But, yeah, that doesn't mean I can't sway. You could be swayed. I could be swayed. And Mary J. Blige is not going to sway me. It's Whitney Houston all day, baby. Good to know. Good to know. Okay, so you're locking in Whitney Houston.
Starting point is 00:48:12 I'm locking it in. Great. What about you? Well, look, it's a very good Rita Ora song. But this afternoon You just said it wasn't even top five The winner of Birthday Banger Is Whitney Houston

Speaking of different, this song. And mum and dad, we know you're listening. You only get one vote, okay?
