[fcknpoeth]

[1795adil]

If you like this kind of music, you should hear STREET BOYS - SOME FOLKS.

[860joejoe]

Nobody frigging cares "what sent you here" or what stupid ass show you heard this song on!

[rrilindd]

am i weird for saying sabrina the teenage wich brought me here

[AuroraWhispers]

@rrilindd Ditto!

[BeatsAndPulses]

@rrilindd The violent femmes brought me to the sabrina clip, the sabrina clip brought me here, so I don't feel too bad about it

[badgersean21]

The boys from Rufus King.

[sanjurodog]

memories of my lost youth sent me here

[boxoloot]

thats what im saying this is the best band ever im 30 yrs old i mean come on bring back real music

[falstaffswims]

Every asshole musician tries to make the tired, uninspired, banal point that "it's cool to be weird." Record companies PAY them to send that message. BUT GORDON GANO taught me that IT WAS COOL TOBE RIDICULOUS. We're f-cking human, after all. And unlike mainstream music (which "says nothing to me about my life"--moz), Violent Femmes f-cking KNOWS what a pain and a thrill and heartbreak and a dreadful feeling and a joy and an infinite heartbreak it is to be human.

[falstaffswims]

@falstaffswims ....Sorry: In short, it's a bummer, but it's a hell of a ride (arigato cocaine and falling in love). I love this man, G.G.

[2007norway]

this is my dope musik lool i just go out if jail after 5 years .. an wow wow il fuck alott my girl then she left me

[micalishis]

Okay, why are all the bass tabs wrong for this song? They all seem to be off by one note. I am starting to think they did it to make the song easier to play but it is just pissing me off because I checked to make sure I was right about 6 times and it is definitely off.

[trashtreasurer19]

The turnaround at 0:45 always reminds me of the Beatles.

[usernameclassifeid]

This goes well with a J.

[vaquero1girl]

why they aren't famous ?



[gustavodanielf]

Best bassline ever made.

[NOGAMENOLOVENOME]

[zippywaite]

@gil3cervezas

Because everybody is to fucking scared!

:(

[kilosnew]

I wasn't in love with you, Rebecca Michelle Wood, but I still really liked you a lot. Why'd you go for him without even properly breaking things off with me first? Why??

[DonPaulPro]

[Rockguitarhero462]

@noonie0444 most of the people that don't like vf are either nazis. rapists, or have faced excommunication.

[LennyWeen]

@Rockguitarhero462 surely

[ElixirPotion]

She turn around! She turn around and she like another guy!

[The112568]

who ever put the dislike must have done it by accident.

[MissionGoneBad]

when I tried out for my high-school jazz band 's bass position I played this song with the solo (which I'd been practicing like all hell) and I made it in the band.

The kid who didn't make it was actually a much better bassist than me. I still feel kinda bad about this.

[timepope]

I wrote this song in a parking lot waiting for the late bus at the cutest girl I had ever seen. Ok. I didn't write it, but I sang this to myself. She was hot. But I bet she just wanted kids. Damn needy women. my wife wants none of that. Hoooray.

[pushelildaisies]

@timepope I wrote this song (excuse me, sang it) about a girl who loved a boy who could clearly do so much more than I could for her, cos Im a girl. So dont feel bad. Youre not alone.

[TheSpookstreet]

best song ever and blister in the sun

[reeceJyoung]

this is the one band i can listen to on those days when everything else is going wrong haha. i dont wanna listen to any music at all and then think of this band! i love the femmes

[WayToroIeroBryarLove]

Me and my sissy are gonna play this song together ^_^

[gtacop11]

I know Victor Delerenzo (Is that how you spell it?) from this band =3

[mussman717word]

@gtacop11

Awesome. Golden age original.

[hitshitwithsticks]

for anybody trying to learn this song this version seems to be a semitone(half-step) up from how they play it live and from what all the tabs I've found have to say. so either capo1 and play it g,c,d or just don't play along to this particular recording.

[Kernypo]

I like it

[AHarmlessBlackMan]

FINALLY A STUDIO VERSION ON YOUTUBE!!!!!1

[propogandalf]

I love this song and that description was just too funny. Consider me conned!

[KongoKid79]

@propogandalf - hahahahaha....proper reply.

[lukeywyatt]

@KongoKid79 Hey this track is great. it seems a little higher in tone than when i play it on my record player. i'm wondering if this is the right tone and my player is running a little slow. is this mp3 slightly faster or higher in tone?

[whitsoxdude]

@lukeywyatt He probably changed it slightly so it could get through youtube's filters.

[lostpianist]

@KongoKid79 and @propogandalf

Can I get in on this?

[hamadcu]

@propogandalf yes how is this
