There’s been an awakening… have you felt it?

For this episode, we scoured our personal music collections, as well as the internet, to find songs that reference, or are about, Star Wars. Topics discussed include: “Weird Al” Yankovic’s decades long dominance in the field of Star Wars music, the lack of Jedi references in hip-hop, and comparing Darth Vader’s helmet to…well, you’ve just got to listen to find out.

Follow Matt and Brian on Twitter @MattDLiguori and @BrianNeedsaNap, respectively. Tweet at them with your thoughts on all things Star Wars.

We will return in 2 weeks with a book club episode, focusing on Queen’s Shadow by E. K. Johnston, before circling back for The Clone Wars seasons 4 and 5.
