“Magic” by Pilot (f/Kai Dodson)

“Magic” by Pilot (f/Kai Dodson)

This week, we’re taking flight with the Scottish band Pilot and their timeless hit “Magic”. Together with our guest Kai Dodson, we get right to the point: does selling out and changing the lyrics to your hit to hawk pharmaceuticals change the legacy of a song? We also dive into Pilot’s musical journey that intersected with an impressive array of legendary musicians and bands. Stay tuned to see if we think the sun should continue to shine on the creators of this pop gem, or if we think the magic is gone after we’ve heard the Ozempic commercial one too many times.
