You're absolutely right. I realize now that they did not use the same fifty 
songs people said were on the original Blender list like "Ob-lad-di 
Ob-la-da" and "The End" which don't have videos. In fact a lot of the 
comments seem to reference the videos more than the songs.

And you're right also about the talking heads on this show being real Z-list 
"celebrities." And in general, I think, the formula is better when it's 
something like "I love the '70's" rather than "I hate these songs." The 
topics are so ridiculous in the first place that if you start with a 
negative bent it becomes unbearably smug.
