0:05Courtney Love identified herself as the target of "Stacked Actors"; Dave Grohl's response was broader.
2:19Asking Alexandria's "Sometimes It Ends" targeted Danny Worsnop before he returned to the band.
3:28Nine Inch Nails' musical jab at Marilyn Manson was followed by a reconciliation.
11:41The Spiritbox section examines Ronnie Radke's reaction to "Soft Spine".
13:18The host considers rock's diss-track tradition and argues that insults can also be playful.

An insult song doesn't always get the last word. In Rocked's "10 MORE Rock Songs Written As Insults", Asking Alexandria's "Sometimes It Ends" comes before Danny Worsnop's return to the band, while Nine Inch Nails' pointed "Starfuckers, Inc." gives way to reconciliation with Marilyn Manson. Even a musical grudge can have a complicated afterlife.

The follow-up draws on years of suggestions for another installment, moving from Foo Fighters' "Stacked Actors" through Pavement's "Range Life" to Spiritbox's "Soft Spine". Near the end, the host makes room for something less combustible: "It can just be dumb fun." Viewers are extending the playlist in the comments, suggesting Carly Simon, Heart, John Lennon and Paul McCartney alongside Green Day and the Used.

That list is the most-watched of Rocked's three new uploads and its busiest video right now. The other arrivals are a Podcast That Rocked episode and an accompanying Short, with Ice Nine Kills' horror-themed collaborations supplying the main talking point. The full episode also makes room for Deftones, Rush and Silent Planet's "Fangs!!", featuring Jacob Charlton.

Channel-wide daily views are running at nearly three times the usual pace, though subscribers held at 125,000 over the week. Nearby music-talk channel Popcast added subscribers, while Hellcat Records' daily viewing stayed close to its usual level. For Rocked, the extra viewing currently centers on a familiar specialty: finding another story inside songs listeners already know.
