[SgtSanchez]

@blacktopaz8

hi im blacktopaz and my opinion is so important that i cant help denigrating successful artists after having looked up their videos. bitter? no. retarded? maybe.

[MeChannel97]

@blacktopaz8 you are sooooooooooooooo retarted this is not a rip off from the beatles and if you dont like it dont listen to it then XP

[Perkerr]

@MeChannel97 "retarted"? lolz

[CatAtomic99]

[CatAtomic99]

[LetsGoMetsGo33]

I played this song a bunch of times around 1994 helping me grieve the death of my favorite cat ever, midnight (r.i.p. 1984-1994) when i was 19. love cats (today i have e 2, including an all black male that i adopted b/c of his resemblance to midnight), and i alwys LOVE the knife!

[hypnosrises]

proof that Asian girls rock with the big dogs! Toe to toe...They are up there with Iggy Pop, Ramones, Henry Rollins, Blondie and Chrissy Hynde...

[Klaryrock95]

I'm not sure but..I think to hear one of their song in the movie "Kamikaze Girls" ...

>__>...that's could be wrong...

[Ranaiaen]

Nice pictures, good song :) Cats ftw

[rockmusscarcella]

I don't want to be a cat, but hell this is such a good song :)

[TylerHFawcett]

[Shoknifeman]

@Slify Actually, it says, "Sometimes I step into timeless zone and I lose my way"

[nevaevaeva1]

[theGodofthebible]

[MultiWicked99]

[otakenji]

"I am a Cat" is a very famous Japanese novel written by Sōseki Natsume:

[AmericanApologist]

Shonen Knife can haz Cheeseburger?

[Slify]

[bunnygal079]

i miss the original knife....mitchie on bass ,atsuko on drums and nancy guitars...

wish they'd get back together!

[Ninjalor]

I just wish I could find someone in Canada who likes Shonen Knife. I am their only fan here I think *sigh*

There must be more... but they're hiding! o.O

[ledzelda]

@Ninjalor I feel the same way  in Chicago

[chickeee]

@Ninjalor  Ritsuko and Naoko are on twitter and a lot of fans are too

[Shoknifeman]

@Ninjalor Hey there fellow Canadian SK fan....There's lots of us, if the concert in Toronto last month was any indication

[NuclearSeagull]

@Shoknifeman

You have been to the concert? How was it to finally see them? :-)

[Shoknifeman]

@NuclearSeagull - Yep I finally saw the band in Toronto this on the fall tour, I had a great time, of course, I wish I could have seen them when Michie and Atsuko were still there, but, Ritsuko is great and Emi is just the sweetest little thing!

[Shoknifeman]

@Shoknifeman that should say : Yep I finally saw the band in Toronto this October, on the fall tour...

[Joepineapplz]

^_______^ Kero kero kero!

Nyan nayn!

[JoeyFrancoJordison]

T_T es hermoso , es realmente hermoso .

[bluekaboo44]

Can anyone tell me what album this is on???

[CAp0OnE]

KAWWAII

 ^_______^

[Maneater1984]

yay!

[Axofraum]

One of my favorite Shonen Knife's songs!! I tried to make a cover with my friends, but no one could do a voice like Naoko, became soooooo ridiculous, hahahahaha!

[HuggumsMcgehee]

@Axofraum When doing a cover, you shouldn't try to sound exactly like the original artist, especially the singer. That's impossible. You should try again! Put it up on youtube. I'd watch.

[cemetery1]

@HuggumsMcgehee Nah, not really it's better to add your own style and sound to a cover, it makes it more interesting. To me, cover bands that try too hard to sound like the original bore me. Most cover bands I've played with would agree.

[WoodRatGirl]

The Onion at the beginning is cute lol.

[Rusfi16]

I love this song though I still don't like cats, or that is , they don't like me for whatever reason.

[bananapussycocktail]

they will play in my town !!:) hope i can be there!

[solidotaku]

yo, horo is a wolf, not a cat

[mizbelle]

I just checked the release date of this album, and it was on my birthday 17 years ago. wow. I loved this album when I was 10 and I still do now at 27.

fuck I feel old.

[larkin38]

Where and when in Philly are they playing?

[guysan]

they will be playing in philly in Nov and i will be there too!!

[skywalker74]

Lovely.

[MahoStarr]

One of my favorite songs since...

I'm pretty sure before I was in pre-school... And I'm 13 now.

It's really just something about them that keeps you with them for so long.

[signcrash]

I'm 48 and I agree with you 100%!

[kei37WING]

This was one of my favorite bands as a kid. I still LOVE EM.

[TwilightZone129]

ahahahhha so funny

[Mygoodmusicchoices]

Cute song, how famous if this band?

[jhassig45]

They're punk rock LEGENDS!

[cw810510]

[CatAtomic99]

Hmm... what's the highest score?
