Poe - Angry Johnny (Rock Version)

[FMFCristo]

After listening to both versions I can say this one is the best. It is darker, more meloncholic and captures more of the angst and pain that the lyrics intend than the (album) version.

[Ascyllia1]

They're both great. Personal prefference notwithstanding. ^^

[MerchManDan]

The other version is OK, but this one is the best. I love the build-up starting around 3:30 and finally rockin' out at 3:50 - can't do that on the "original."

[WinishkiJones]

This isn't horrible, still like the album version better.

[TheNicoleye]

I love this version! where can I find it?

[bitterlee]

It's funny - this version was the version they played on the radio out here. I liked it much better than the album version, and this is the first time I've found it online. Thank you for posting it. :)

[mandygartman]

WTH is this crap? the original album version is so far superior...

[cazzidymichele]

this version stinks! Not the orginal! back to the cd now!

[sh4doww4lker]

OK, first, IMHO, I like the version that started all this discussion. Second, for those who want the original, google poe - hello and you can download the original album easily, for testing purposes only, of course.

[LateNightCable]

All I hear is that she wants to blow him....

[wackywankavator]

This is not rock.

[MamDawn9709]

hahaha i love this song, me and my friend would sing this to our friend because her boyfriends name is johnny she hated us!! haha

[25Mmarie]

I cant find the original!!! i don't like this one....

[InevitableMC]

Where can I find this version, I think its way better, drums and vocals!!

[Dime6String]

I'm not giving out my email for the full album or anything. I just wanna know where I can find the original song I remember from Jr. high school! Anyone know?

[sh4doww4lker]

@Dime6String this IS the album version.

[Dime6String]

@sh4doww4lker Sounds a bit different than I remember from jr high for some reason.

[PopCulture20]

@sh4doww4lker No sir I have the album and this is NOT the album version!!!! The album version has a more R&B flow to it. This is some silly single version!!!

[rhettly]

nothing like the 90's

[MissMariJaine]

man i used to b so spun out with rebellion and my music... poe helped me thru the years

[LedWilde]

Fuck. There are three versions of this song. I can't find the one I'm looking for.

[ForeverVachon]

@LedWilde I uploaded the original version and official music video and promptly deleted it: WMG has blocked it worldwide and this is grounds for account deletion. You can always go dailymotion & download it from there.

[LedWilde]

@ForeverV That's where I found it. Someday a person might upload it, title it something else than what it's titled, and then have it unlisted. Then when someone says,"Where's the version?" Someone sends it. There's actually a lot of videos of a particular band on YouTube that's titled under a different name from what the band name actually is. And they aren't unlisted. And after 3 or 4 years, none got taken down. WMG aren't smart enough to know. People that are "hip" know what to search for. ;)

[Rest62less]

This is the version I first heard, and on the basis f it and "Hello" from the radio, I bought the cassette. Loved it, even if the songs were different arrangements than the ones on radio.

[TheSidviciouss]

esta no mola nada sube la otra ya

[TheSidviciouss]

where is the original version of this song?? jon jones brought me here

[tinabooty1000]

Yeah, I'd like to post the album version on my page... even the live versions I've found are like this one. Boo! >:/

[Oracle428]

Yeah, I definately like the album version of this better... those muted trumpets are sexy... but I like the rocked out version of 'Hello' better than the album version. Why is the original video of Angry Johnny so hard to find?

[JamieFelker22]

JON JONES BROUGHT ME HERE

[MrIdontwannahearit]

@JamieFelker22 jon jones can eat a dick

[MrIdontwannahearit]

@JamieFelker22 jon jones can eat a dick he actually wants to blow a dude

[NexisFirehawk]

Why do people hate this version of the song? I think it's better than the other version.

[setbro]

@NexisFirehawk It's because this version is so simple minded and generic. The bluesy one works way better and conveys the feeling of the song better.

[DerekBarns]

@setbro That's all well and good, but the album version wasn't what got me (and many others) hooked in the first place. Warner pulled a bait and switch on the listening public by promoting a version that's not even on the CD.

[setbro]

@DerekBarns LOL! Really?? It was on the CD I bought back in 94 or 95 it had to be. No, they recorded THIS version for the clubs since they were being accused of "selling out" by morons who used to hang outside their gigs (Poe didn't help matters by doing voiceovers for video games with Bruce Willis--true story! I used to have the game. Don't recall the name of it, but she was one of the boss level villains it's hilarious!). "Fingertips" is just like this one.

[DerekBarns]

@setbro Your reading comprehension sucks. THIS was the version getting radio play, not the original, making this the PROMOTED version.

[DerekBarns]

@setbro THIS was the version getting radio play, at least in my area, making it the PROMOTED version. Learn some english. And people that accuse people of "selling out" are just pathetic wannabes.

[serenadeyuki]

iwish i had been older during the 90s. it wouldve been awesome:)

[ScienceProjek]

She reminds me of Tracy Bonham. Vocals and all.

[pieisnotcake]

i first heard this song on my ipod my dad got me that was packed with lots-o-songs i never heard of, but this started playing when i was my bus to school and it was raining so it was perfect :)

[TEXAZHAZE]

i wanna see a jon jones fight higlight 2 this track

[damnyancey]

saw them at five points music hall in Birmingham with 7 Marry 3. pretty cool

[ontheinsideoutside]

I really like this song, but what is it about?

[bolmsp]

[NihilistImp]

[jollyrogers011]

i used to love this group..

[Chriiissy]

Does anyone know where i can find the version of Hello from this tape?

[jiggdane]

still love her til this day! she rocks!

[thecastleanthrax1]

Edgy. Dark. Mysterious. A gorgeous woman with real talent. The airwaves are filled with drivel spouted by the pretty young flavor of the week. And meanwhile, whatever happened to Poe.

[bru12379]

ok three people, there is an improvement of the stupid peopel in the world.

[tkpadilla]

[punkchic4u]

I love this song!!!!!

[stairwaytoheaven22]

I never liked this song. I did listen to Poe back in the day though.

[leunamcrowley2]

I've just read that she's Mark Danielewsky's sister. That makes it even more awesome.

And by the way, there is this guy by the name of Juan, that I want to kill so much. Can't find a better song to reflect my rage against that dude

[mparker71]

Juan y, Angry Juan y.

[stoictoften]

[paulrockaway]

[sankfinatra]

@ox7x7x7xo Buy the album for 5 bucks on ebay/amazon

[smellyfanelly]

I first heard Poe when I was ten. It was this version of Angry Johnny on the radio and I was instantly smitten! When I bought the cd I was slightly disappointed to find this version was not on the album, but loved the album just the same!

[rdrwlb]

What I get from the song is she is calling out to her man's aggressive nature that he holds back for her. Very sensual and real lyrics.

[reymoondog]

I wanna blow you away...angry Johnny.

[steamyboy69]

but the album version is relaxing, depends on the mood you're in,, same goes with Hello,

[sourpatchkara]

definately the best version..!

[BRETTSBOO69]

My husband that left me name is Johnny and sing this everyday!!! I love POE!!!

[cell166]

We really do need to pay to this. What we used to take for granted we may never hear again. Where is POE...where is the next POE?

[TAKEDOWNx5285]

Johhny angry johnny

[buckcherrybitch]

Thanks so much for putting this version on here! I wish I could find it and put it onto a CD!

[seaniebouy]

LOVE this version! So much better than the original. Wish this version was on itunes.

[bobwellenmellon]

so.... you wanna "blow me away".....

[elbertsnext]

whomever loaded this song Rules!

[mannyortizjr]

my name is johnny!

[tinkerbell2able]

hey this is to whom ever down loaded this, this version fkn rocks!!! THANK YOU

[kryston80]

i love this song

[pinkpanther1234567pp]

Definatly like this better than the Album version

[cell166]

Just for the record, POE has been around since the late '80s. Maybe the greatest unrealized talent ever. Love her to death!

[BoyintheMachine]

@cell166

Yes, but this album is the only one that captured a generation. Here newest stuff sucks.

[BoyintheMachine]

@cell166

Sorry, I just looked it up and everything on line says "nope". Her debut album was "Hello" in 1996, not in the 80s.

[cell166]

@BoyintheMachine This is the problem with being there as opposed to reading about it. I'm not sure when her first major release came out, I know you can get an audio cassette of Hello dated October 17, 1995 at Amazon.com, for what it's worth. What I was refering to was the fact that I saw her live at a show right before I graduated from college in 1991 and assumed she had been around for a while thus the '80's. Sorry about the confusion.

[BoyintheMachine]

@cell166

Hmmm...you got me thinking. Angry Johnny was the first song I heard by Poe and I was turned on to it by a friend in either 95 or 96. The album Hello didn't come out until 96, if I remember right. Now you got me thinking. LOL

[mikeromaniw]

just herad this on the john jones entrance. what a fucking song! some great bands hiding away.

[aubreya26]

20 fuckin years wow your retarded more like 14 god get it right

[bambam548]

[kingoflamegame]

[HellsCowBoy666]

HELL NO

[cc8277]

I'm not listening to this song anymore today. It might just kill it for me. I just discovered Poe today and I can't get enough. What a great artist.

[moviedude22]

KILLER!!!

[hisxdecember]

i have this cd...it rules. but i like the other version of Johnny better

[duskyjewel6]

This song really takes me back to when I was a teenager with my green highlights, doc martins, soundgarden tee and old ripped up flannel-those were the good old days!

[uhdur]

I was thinking the same thing. I was stoned in the back of my friends 4 door caprice the first time I heard this song, I was like "Holy shit" II was an instant fan.

[KevD08]

@duskyjewel6 No it dosen't, stop lying!!

[jadedthornlive]

@duskyjewel6 I think you just decribe me. My docs were red, and my highlights were vamp red.

[rusparky2]

Awesome song! Saw where this was recorded almost 20 yrs ago!! Can't believe this band has been around so long and never knew!

[coverton341]

This song came out in 1995 that is how long the band has been around as well.... WTH is up with 20 years? I mean she is a great singer/songwriter but she hasn't been around THAT long.

[karinablack]

My favorite version!!! Would love to find this on cd.

[EmmilyOfIrk]

Heheh, I've heard a compleatly different version to this song, but it's still awesome. c:
