Babes In Toyland "He's My Thing"

[dirksnider]

ive always liked the intensity in babes in toyland , but just could never get over there "girl power" "You go girl" element. i don't give a fuck if your a woman, its nothing special to be a woman or a man. let us be measured by our intensity.

[girlslikesatan]

In my opinion, she has the best female voice with Julie London and Edith Piaf!

[user3182]

her voice is so sexy!

[ScarlettAnarchist]

Love Babes in Toyland <3

[ninjaweedy]

I cant believe she went to my middle school!!!

[gonevamyth]

Music=good

dolls coming to life= scary shit

[tobyhel0]

Babes in Toyland VS 7 Year Bitch xD

[twopure]

I love this song! :D

[superafim17]

The version with Michelle Leon is way better, better sound quality and heavier bass.

[SatounoKumo]

now these are proper female screams (unlike angela gossow's...meh)

[ScarlettAnarchist]

@SatounoKumo But you have to think about this- Babes in Toyland is not a death metal band, theyre simply Grunge. Arch Enemy is Death Metal. Therefore you cant compare because its not the same thing and not meant to be.

[foovana95]

when was courtney love in this band.......

[alotofcheese76]

@foovana95 she was in it for a really short time before they recorded music or anything

[maxhowlingbeagle]

I think I'm in love with Katherine. I would be her thing any day!

[demetriorex]

20 bieber fans!!

[heyyouband]

hot rocker chicks!! LOVE IT! Sweet song and video! Way to pave the way for us female rockers!!!!!! I am in a new pop/punk band called HEY YOU! and i think we need to go back in time...haha. If any of you BIT fans wanna give it a try let us know what u think (it is a lil more poppy than this one, but MAN!! Wish we could play a show together )

youtube search: Hey You Band Taking Over (the one with the bunny)

[zerrson]

best band of all time with a couple of bands.

[us8likes8cheese]

Laura-Mary Carter brought me here.

[tessy0504]

my favorite babe's song!! =)

[Cryptorchild92]

The song sounds like a nightmarish reconstruction of a surf-rock song... Its awesome, I love it !!!

[maxime324]

nice band

[nickashine1]

riot grrrrrllllll is some dyke power crap with badly played punk. This band isn't in that genre.

[kamrade1]

The live-action segments just nail the feel of 1960s exploitation horror movies.

[TheGrungenoise]

hell yehaaa I know nobody cares but, i have a band of Grunge call Sgroya search here n Grunge not dead

[johnlovesbridge]

I loved Babes in Toyland. I never knew there was a video for this song.

[alodie6578]

best band of my known fuckin life. ggggah fuck i wanna . gah

[tommy1973able]

@alodie6578 i totally agree!lol

[MashaRzhavaya]

<3

люблю женский грандж ^_^

[calvin799]

if the vocalist  marry with kurt it will be the best rock couple ever!!

[tommy1973able]

@calvin799 blasfemie!

[tracypitre]

something different but difference is what makes it special

[WormTyrant]

@myvspazz

Well...it's fucking great that you feel the pain of it. I'm 35 and yes I should feel lucky that I grew up in this era. Although I'd have to say I wish i grew up earlier. Late 70's Las Angeles was the SHIT ! Fuck yeah ! and I was in diapers back then. And not even American. It's sad that female representation is so weak and commercial. (I'm male too.)...I got attacked rather ferociously for suggesting that Lady Gaga was a boring cunt, on a Butthole Surfers messageboard no less. Jesus !

[HAYDS510]

@WormTyrant thats unlucky dude.. makes ya wonder how they migrate from their bubbles of commercial safety to real music to defend their shit.

[intentions666]

I would have loved to be Kat Bjeland's thing! :P

[MattiiPeachez]

@intentions666

Agreed!!



[MegaMelloD]

@myvspazz I'm with ya on that. It makes you wonder where music is going...it really sucks that we're stuck with the shit we've got right now these days...

[MarsionLove]

Riot Grrrl isn't a label, it's a movement. I don't see it as a bad thing, I think we should leave it to the band to decide if they are Riot Grrrl.

[linafelina]

i thought this was riot grrrrl....so im wrong apparently, i will never understand genres and labels.

[MrPsychopatic]

listened first 20 seconds

I'm in love 

[jujkuj123]

I just bought a Japanese import of spanking machine and to mother on one disc and it's pretty fucking awesome.

[EASTBAYPUNK681]

RUNKROCK ON HELL YEAH

[Flingpingz]

@EASTBAYPUNK681

runk means wank in swedish. But hey, whatever rolls you're boat miss.

Fuck todays society and thy employers. BABE IN TOYLANDS!

[Dednyz]

@myvspazz Same here!

I grew up listening to Hole...I wish I was introduced to this :)

[412aztec]

WATCH OUT!!

''HORNY BOY'' by CARDONA

[amunra666]

Totally loving this song/video. Such great talent.

[smokeymunroe]

@midoritree what happened to her?

[midoritree]

@smokeymunroe i don't really remember now but i remember i read she passed away years ago... perhaps overdozed... i could be wrong... did you read/hear she is still alive?

[IcHyThuMp671]

I wanna have a band like this :) but I just know people who worship the glam then is tough .-.

[xnagab]

oh rock geniuses egos clashing, contradicting... idk... just listen... peace and enjoy the music :)

[UNDEADGYPZY]

HELLZ YEA !! NEED I SAY MORE !???

[swagar]

Bikini Kill and Bratmobile associated themselves with the term "riot grrrl". Kill Rock Stars was created so they could be riot grrrl. Although those sorts of bands sound similar, the genre is based more around feminist lyrics than what the music sounds like. So, Babes in Toyland aren't riot grrrl, but the fact that you all don't know what category to put them in means they did something right. They're original. They don't have the exact same sound as a thousand other bands. Good for them.

[krazyako]

COOOOOLLL... FREAKING AWESOME...

[happynurse63]

Saw them in concert at First Ave in 95 and they were fantastic!

[EyesOfAserpent]

I've just started recently listening to Bikni Kill and Babes in toyland just recently. Honestly two different bands two different chandras. HOw can you say Babes in Toyland is riot girl.. It's really not. It's different. Bikini Kill now that is more like riot girl. I agree with CompletaBeatles.

[ChaosXwillXprevail]

freakin awesome

[ihatemarkdillon]

i agree wit the fella under this comment, shut the fck up theres nothing worst then stupid utubers as there called arguing bout crap do you's want me to be your mammy there a fcking band tats it nothing else genres are just lebels there a band and i hate talking like this cause i should like u idiots cop on listen to the music, im glad im signed in for once so i can comment on u people who use wikipedia and wat not awh ye annoy me >:(

[Jojos25]

90s = best decade ever.

this music has a certain feeling in the air. grunge rock was special.

[jmpsthrufyre]

@Jojos25 ....perhaps people consciously or 'unconsciously' thought the end was coming at 2000, so played with utter abandon and mucho feeling...all out if you will....not giving a flying roll in the hay about all the unimportant things that go along with the music biz/scene......

[Twiggy19981]

@Jojos25 I know!! I wish we still had music like that....I wish it was still the 90's...

[OlympiaMusicTV]

@Jojos25 Hmm, every decade looks the same, but it was really good for popular music that "grunge" came out and became popular for a moment. And the fact grunge was popular for all the 90's, and in late 90's started to disappear...

[wipers86]

@Jojos25 babes in toyland were not grunge, they were a punk band that got mistaken for a grunge band, because of the time they came along

[wipers86]

@Jojos25 the gits and bikini kill were also punk bands that got mistaken for grunge 

[blonkyman]

@wipers86 Both of those bands are from washington though and grunge is just punk from washington in the 90's

[wipers86]

@blonkyman not really grunge was a mix of punk and metal and other little things, you listen to these and you listen to Nirvana or SoundGarden Babes in toyland were punk the other 2 I mentioned were grunge, Nirvana had metal elements and also pop and so did SoundGarden they also had heavy sounding songs there's a big difference in punk and grunge, grunge was a mix of punk and metal Babes in toyland aren't so they're punk

[Orphan9999]

90s music SUCKS:PPP

[guitarkidv1]

@Orphan9999 are you genuinely joking or just dumb?

[savetheunstable]

<3 them. i used to have this on vhs i feel so old..!!

[riverplate0101]

Sounds like there are lots of versions of this song recorded.

[lila0o]

let's all shut up and apreciate the hot morbidness of this.

[JamiePerfection]

this shit does rule there are only reason i would want to live i the 80's and 90's

[JamiePerfection]

this shit does rule there are only reason i would want to live i the 80's

[kurtywurty85]

I miss the 90s :/

[spacedude600]

damn this takes me waaaay back to the days of sk8boarding and partys

[TheKristof91]

SICK but great.

[funnelcakelauren]

how the fuck do you say her last name anyhow

[greatgames148]

@funnelcakelauren Kat bejelland is how you say it.

[chrysotheme]

@greatgames148 i heard kat pronouncing it "byelland" on a live recording.

[greatgames148]

@chrysotheme yeah sorry i got it mixed up that is how you pronounce it.

[kurtywurty85]

@funnelcakelauren it's pronounced: bee-yellin...how appropriate haha

[infinitycrops]

Need a couple of hits of acid, 5th of Jack Daniels, chaser, and surrounded by people that chain-smoke [clove] cigarettes so I can relive this part of my life.

[squidster29yay]

i love the guitar here!

[justanaveragejustin]

this guitar riff worked way better with sweet 69

[ilikeyourmumsboobs]

i remember seeing them live in a tiny ass venue in liverpool back in the day. god know what kat was on but she was too fucked to sing. still, it was fuckin' awsome.

[FleaMarket92]

I wish I could be Kat Bejelland's thing :D

[tickedoffnow]

[Scrap5000]

One of the greatest obscure bands of all time...why the FUCK were they not promoted more?

[elmerlover]

[tickedoffnow]

@elmerlover Babes In Toyland are one of the most underrated Metal bands of all time, and they're hot too, that's real rock n' roll. :)

[9robin3]

@tickedoffnow its Grunge/ Grunge Metal

[holycombat]

@9robin3 How do you people figure this is metal music?

[TheLeathershadow]

Grunge or Riot Grrrl... this was out b4 anyone gave a shit to put a label on it...

[kiastar67]

My ex , David G. and Mike Etoll made this video in Mpls. I call it Smack scremo grunge rock because ya, ask Fat Miss Mary if these girls were buying Chieva when this was made! LOL Stop fighting about what it is called and look at the creepy dolls, listen to the voices.Mike and David had to burn an antique doll and hell, did they even get paid? I think it was Mike who has the idea.the guy is genious.

[MissFallenDolly]

[itsova4ya]

[darksunisone]

i love kat...she's my dream girl! kiss me pls!!!!

[HarryLeeds1]

Beautiful!

[twiggythelumberjack]

blah blah just listen to the damn song.. Smart or over opinionated?.. very thin line guys, very thin line..

[Gamagachee]

you sick pervert

[derpestarzt]

But who really came up with the 'Kinderwhore' style? was it Bjelland or Courtney Love? that's what I really want to know, coz you know, it has such a historical relevance.

[SilentRockerKitty]

@derpestarzt

If you wikipedia it, it says that Bjelland was the one to start it, while Love was the one who popularized it.

[pandagirl303]

@derpestarzt Kat Bjelland was the first to define it but Courtney Love was the first to popularize it.

[derpestarzt]

@pandagirl303 um...I was being sarcastic love, I couldn't care less which one of these two retards decided first to dress like 'kinder whore'.

[sydneysue62]

@derpestarzt Two retards? Kat Bjelland is NOT a retard.... Courtney love was.

[pandagirl303]

@sydneysue62 I must disagree. I don't think that either of them are retards. If you don't like their music or you just plain don't give a fuck then don't comment.

[sydneysue62]

@pandagirl303 Well yeah sure I respect YOUR opinion... But, I must point out this is NOT a Courtney Love video. I do like Babes in Toyland's music. Not Courtney's. And yes I think Courtney was a retard because well, she cheated on the most amazing guy in the world, Kurt Cobain.

[LivesUnderABridge]

@sydneysue62

Kurt was a great artist, but I'd hardly consider a heroin addict to be in the running for "most amazing guy in the world."

[sydneysue62]

@LivesUnderABridge Again, a matter of opinion... And he was actually recovering right before he died. If you think about it anyway, tobacco is a drug, just like heroin. They are different in ways (like what they do to you, and how they are done). But still, it's a drug. Would you say that Albert Einstein wasn't one of the most amazing people in the world if he smoked?

[Tazmania115110]

@sydneysue62 When he died, the cops found heroin next to his body. I don't think he ever did wanna recover. He just jumped ship, got as high as he could get, and committed suicide.

[sydneysue62]

@Tazmania115110 Someone had to have killed him. He couldn't have even lifted the gun up to his head with 3 times the lethal dose of heroin in him. He couldn't have even injected that much anyway, believe me, I knew a heroin addict. Also, all the fingerprints were wiped off the gun. Remember, I never said that Courtney killed him... But, she could have. Who knows, I wasn't there.

[Tazmania115110]

@sydneysue62 It don't matter anymore. I wish Kurt was still alive to have said what happened. :(

[ReinRaus93]

@sydneysue62 What do you mean cheated!?She didn't cheat on him,she was crushed after he commited suicide and left her ALONE WITH A KID AND HIS MATTERS FOR HER TO DEAL WITH!I love Kurt but God!,stop blaming her for everything bad that happened since then and listen to her music!

[sydneysue62]

@ReinRaus93 Yeah actually I don't care for Hole... so no, I won't listen to her music, and I hate to break it to you but there's evidence he filed for a divorce before he killed himself/got killed or whatever. I don't know if she or someone else killed him and I don't know if he killed himself, and neither do you. And anyways, Courtney is a terrible mother. She called Frances a fat ass.

[courtneylove4]

@sydneysue62 Just wondering, when did she call Frances a fat ass?

[teenie959]

@courtneylove4 Hmmm, not too long ago, on Facebook.

[teenie959]

@courtneylove4 Or maybe twitter.

[courtneylove4]

@teenie959 oh, thanks

[courtneylove4]

@teenie959 actually, I'm sorry, I just researched this, you are mistaken. On Facebook she called PEREZ HILTON a "fat ass piece of bullshit", so for the record she did not call Frances that. I can see how you would get confused, as she called Perez that in relation to the whole Frances issue. He said some nasty stuff about her and Frances, so she called him a fat ass

[ReinRaus93]

@courtneylove4 I was just gonna get really mad about it and post a raging message to a person who commented below but you explained it well enough.When it comes to Courtney people always say what they want no matter what the truth is,i think it's rather an uncounsciouss thing that causes it but despite that I get angry..

[courtneylove4]

@ReinRaus93 thank you for agreeing with me and making a great point :)

[kurtywurty85]

@sydneysue62 It's so sad when people have no idea as to what they're talking about...

[sydneysue62]

@kurtywurty85 I know, right?

[pandagirl303]

@derpestarzt Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet. And if you don't give a shit don't ask, because it simply makes you look stupid.

[NymphZoic68]

GRRrl!!

[CercleKoen]

One of their very best. Love women with balls!

[stillnobodysnothing]

love them!!!!! fontenell was super

[mrbejam]

I was only 10 when this album came out and I remember my older Cousin playing this song.

I thought - wow those girls are screaming like the devil! awesome!

So even though I got into rock and metal through other bands, Babes in Toyland were the starting point for it all.

Awesome song.

[nextandykaufman]

this shit really is boss, isn't it bitches?

[radddxpxpxp]

this shit is boss bitches,

[xmiezex]

ohw man! blast from the past! i loved this this song! i still do!!!

[chunk1bunk]

WHOA!!!

hold your horses on tha last comment

[moonlily1]

nobady said anything about nirvana. no need to hate on somebody else to express your admiration for these bands. it's irrelevant really, who they're better than or not as good as.

[drslobulus]

That was six female bands... just sayin'...

Also, Joan Jett sticks out like a sore thumb... seeing as the Blackhearts are all guys... why not replace her with Dickless?

And although I admire your list, Hole does not kick Nirvana's ass.

[GayCollegeWhore]

Not bitch, Hole does kick Nirvanas ass

[gangs16]

@GayCollegeWhore OMG 2 DIFFERENT BANDS GET OVER IT

[JayT851]

YOO babes in toy land kicks Holes ass thats who you should compare Nirvana isnt in this conversation this is a girl band

[MissScabtree13]

dont forget jack off jill

[GayCollegeWhore]

yes they're amazing

[marrymekate]

it's ok not to like nirvana, but sincerely FUCK YOU, sit down, open your ears and brain and listen to in utero.

[Felix1178]

ohhh no you hurt my fucking feelings haha NOT! but guess what? fuck you too

i listen to REAL! music and not this bullshit anymore grunge ain't shit anymore so go fuck yourself please :)

and SHUT YOUR PIEHOLE! motherfucker

and go listen to your fake ass non talent music

[CompleatBeatles]

LOL, you criticize grunge, yet your watching a grunge video as you are reading my comment. That makes no sense.

[duanerichardson]

@CompleatBeatles This is NOT Grunge....Buy a clue...IT'S RIOT GRRRRRL

[CompleatBeatles]

No, it's grunge. Babes In Toyland never directly participated in the Riot Grrrl scene. Get a clue.

Isaiah

[ledonnarama]

I agree. They were not directly Riot Grrl, that was much more of a Bikini Kill-Heavens To Betsy-Bratmobile-K-Records movement.

[RadioFriendlyNoise]

@CompleatBeatles no it is actually punk. They just got grouped into the grunge scene. Grunge is a marketing term. Yes it is a genre but lets be real. Nirvana Mudhoney, Babes in Toyland, and L7 were punk bands. Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden were hard rock/ alternative metal bands.
