Tanya is such an underrated guitar player.

[manuel1879]

The best song from the real ramona album. I like all of their albums and eps, one of the best american bands of the 80s (also very strong in the 90s and 00s) Nice to find this video on youtube.

[CoffeeDrinker2010]

It's clear - to me - years later that the drumming was such a vital compliment to the guitars. My god, where are the bands like this? I don't say that as someone waning for back in the day, but truly, for their time, and for their genre - brilliant

[DjWellDressedMan]

Throwing Muses so talented in so many ways. I really enjoy watching David on the drums, most Muses songs have multiple tempo changes. And Tanya is really wicked Hot!

[dronology]

One thing that doesn't get mentioned enough about this band is the rhythm section, whether it's Leslie, Fred, or Bernie on bass. Fred and Dave lay down a classic Muses groove on this one.

@MjrGruber you probably actually would like it fine. she's a real sweetheart.

[Beelzebubbbbles]

"My mouth is full of demons

I swear to God".

My favourite songwriter in the world. Disturbing subject matter though, Ellen West suffered from anorexia and killed herself with poison.

[raahead]

Possibly one of the best opening lines to a song ever.

[jonboyjon1976]

I hear you on that. I don't know how I would have coped without Delicate Cutters

[keauxgeigh]

I need to go to bed

I need to go to sleep

I need that hope chest

I need it to breathe

Throwing Muses were there to help me through tough times.
