I think 55 this yr. Janis died @ 27 overdose. Also autopsy revealed half her internal organic were eaten up by an easily cured VD. Coroner said the pain must've been unbearable.
When I hear the "music" today I wanna shove a knife in each ear, slit my wrists, put a noose around my neck and hold a gun to my head and pull the trigger so I would be sure that I died. And I'm 16 years old. No bullshit. My parents listenes to the "music" today and I'm wondering wtf! Hell youtube is the only place left for me to hear good music again that is when the fucking copyrighters is bitchy. Wich they sometimes are.
@mrtimmi47 Same situation here. The "music" today completely sucks....Kinda funny though everyone says "oh i listen to new music!" But the fact is that none of it is new people have done it all before they just did it better and classier...Lady GaGa for example is nothing new people just think she is...kinda scary what people find acceptable and wonderful as far as music goes... :/
I used to wish that Type O Negative would cover this song. Hell, can you imagine a Johnette and Peter Steele duet? Would be fucking epic. Now it's impossible but I can dream...
She's got a really mystical voice that you can't really put a finger on. Sounds like a cross between Janis Joplin and evil priestess. Evil priestess chanting evil curses on you.
this song actually is about 20 years old and it still is better then alot of this non-sense called well whatever you young people call it today it is not music this is fucking slow but every beat and johnnette's voice is the sexiest i ever heard hot sexy little vampress noke cleveland
Never seen this, and I have been a fan since "God is a bullet". 120 minutes did play CB quite a lot for a minute back in the late 80's into the very early 90s
@sunphuk Never thought of it like that. Me too? She is without a doubt the ultimate female rock singer. CB always maintained complete control over the production of their music. Heart lost the edge they had because of letting the record company dictate artistic production. (Baracuda). I don't think CB wanted to be huge. Saw them in Detroit. She's really a cool lady. Wish I could meeet her.
@hinault1985 ultimate "female" rock singer? okay, can you stereotype a little bit more clearly than that?Just say her voice is great. or One of Rocks greatest. the ultimate.?Oh my, and now you are trying to compare Johnette to Heart. Why? One person vs an entire Band? Female rock vocalists?
How do you know she is a 'cool' lady? Because you saw "them" in Detroit?
You haven't even met her. You just stated a week ago, "I wish I could meet her"
@bordercollieluv - Thank you for pointing out all of my short comings. In my very humble opinion, I enjoy the voice of the singer in Concrete Blonde. Also, the lead singer in this band "seemed" to me to be an articulate and friendly person. I have no idea if this is factual.
@bordercollieluv : Hasn't a person's music ever touched you in a way that you totally feel like you get them? If not, that's a shame. Concrete Blonde is a salve & a balm to many people, why take a piss on that?
Since Johnnette most of the lyrics, we feel we know a little bit about her... her human-ness, her vunerability, her spirit. It's in her lyrics, her voice, the songs are wrapped around her like a shawl. I was @ a show the day AFTER the person Joey was written about died. They played Joey ( sans drummer - quit the show before) & there wasn't a dry eye in the house. That's how I know.
0:08 is supposed to be a chicks Box with a crawling clitoris?.... ..right? I want to crawl up inside Johnette's box and set up house, I dont care what the rent is, I'll pay it.
windows, walls floors..brushing out snags in her pubes..whatever...I love her.

great song one of the best and my most favorite of concrete blonde. Her voice screams sex appeal. glad you can still find this song online. cant find it in stores

Why is this song missing the whole first part of the chorus?
It skips the lyrics:
"and i've been running all this time
and i'm running out of places to go
and i am oh so sick and tired of every face that i know"
and goes straight to:
"everything i do, everything i say
everything in my head, every night, every day"
Weird. I don't like it.
Though that's not a hit on CB... awesome
