Ten Minute Tune, Hear All Of Jeff Kurkjian’s Incredible Songs!

Every week, Jeff Kurkjian is tasked with writing a Ten Minute Tune! You pick the song that we play on the radio station and then a topic, he rewrites the lyrics and then performs in LIVE on the air!

Once could argue that I have been singing these types of songs my entire life. I used to love listening to the radio in the car, changing the lyrics to my favorites songs in my head to make them sound funny. Little did I know I would make a career out of this little hobby.

I grew up a theater kid, performing at stage since I was 10 years old. So singing and performing has always been something that I've loved to do. I took piano lessons since the age of six years old and was heavily involved in choir as well. When I got to college, I was a founding member of the a cappella group, Otto Tunes, on the campus of Syracuse University!

It took us a semester to become an official student organization on campus. Here was our FIRST performance after becoming official. It’s Gavin DeGraw’s “Not Over You.”

After joining The Andie Summers Show, we started the Ten Minute Tune up. To hear any of those classic tunes from before 2025, you can click here and search through all of those amazing ones in the archive.

Starting in 2025, we wanted to record all Ten Minute Tunes on TheAndieSummersShow.com so that everyone can get access to them! You can also follow us on Instagram to see the videos weekly.

Genuinely, ten movies nominated for Best Picture in the 2025 Oscars and we don't know any of them. So we decided to sing about it. Taking Jordan Davis' "I Ain't Sayin'" to remix it for this week!

Sing A Long! 

It’s just another award show

And we don’t know half of the flicks

If we watched them we’d be bored though,

Cause all of them are the same ole shtick!  

And yeah, Conclave, Complete Unknown,

The Brutalist, Nickle Boys, I wouldn’t’ know

Dune and Wicked, hey wasn’t that a show?

Nobody has watched more than one, so…

I am sayin’ that I don’t care, who, what, when, or where

I hear Emilia Perez will win!

Wait a minute, who is that chick? A movie nominated

Only seen one of the ten best pics

Cause the Oscars are movies ain’t watchin’

Didn’t see them no, except Wicked okay?

So coming on March 3rd, do we even care who won?

It just better be Chalamet

Timothee Chalamet

Timothee Chalamet!

We love Girl Scout Cookie Season!! It's the best time of the year. And Jeff has been tasked with performing "Damn Good Day To Leave" by Riley Green.

Sing A Long

Man it’s ‘bout time for them to come a knockin’

I need my fix cause it’s something I’m cravin’

I opened a bank account so I can be savin’

All year I waited for this

I will take orders from everyone that exists

It’s finally Girl Scout Coo - kie

Season and I need my do si does

Throw in a box of Sa Mo A’s

Adventurefuls are cool don’t forget the thin mints

Ain't a cookie out there I won’t order I wouldn’t

Give me your best pitch and you’ll see

I will always buy Girl Scout Cookies!

Did you team not make it to the NFL playoffs this year? We know that feeling all too well! Every fan base has been there! So Jeff took Chayce Beckham's "Everything I Need" to sing about not making the playoffs!

Sing A Long

Well, this season was real hard

No division or wild card

From the end back to the start

My team just didn’t do well

We’ve had lots of players hurtin’

Some nobody was a startin’

It looks like we’re draftin’

New players man it’s hell

My team stinks, like the Cowboys

And this winter, they are plow boys

It’s depressin’, watching all these other teams

Every touchdown that they score

Is just another drink I pour!

And hope and pray we play just like a different team

Fire our head coach, and start a new QB

Better players are what we need!

Nothing is worse than being the first one back from the holiday, and the place is empty, you know everyone is sleeping in and it's just you alone. Or is that the best? But also, we all aren't ready to go back to work after the holidays. "High Road" by Koe Wetzel and Jessie Murph is the song Jeff is remixing. 

Sing A Long!

Well, it’s twenty twenty five

And most of your coworkers don’t know you’re alive

Cause you have not been in since before Christmas! 

And now you have to wake up and deal with the drive in

And then there’s that guy who is always just thriving

He won’t, be quiet

You should wear some headphones when you walk in

Keep your head down so you can’t hear talking

Then you’ve got four hundred, unread emails

And your boss is coming in talking slow as a snail

I don’t need to hear about your vacay

Or even whose house you went to on the holiday

I just need some real time that is just mine to reset my mind.

In order to kick off 2025 off right with new Tunes, we have to recap what went down in 2024, right? So, Jeff was tasked to take LoCash's "I Love This Life," to sing about the highs of 2024. 

Sing A Long

[Verse 1]

Twenty Twenty Four is coming to an end

Yeah it’s been a crazy one, you could say that again

Let’s now take a look back at the biggest things

That happened this whole year, summer winter and spring

Of course the election that one was pretty big

But no politics here, because that’s not my gig

I’m talking lots of big things, that’s where I am at

Maybe then you’ll say let’s run it back

[Chorus]

I’m talking Caitlin Clark,

Women’s basketball

Paris Olympics

And all those medals

And then there’s Post Malone

Country is now his home

Wicked was, so so good

In the movie theater

We finally got a

Yellowstone ending

Then there’s Jimmy Carter

He just turned one hundred!

And then there’s SNL 

50 years ring that bell

Twenty, twenty four

Ended up so well!
