There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A bunch of punk videos with chick singers: [link]

The Flying Lizards: Money (1979?)
Featuring scary minimalist singer Deborah Lizard.

Joan Jett: Cherry Bomb (1982?)
Joan Jett was a member of The Runaways, which did this song first.

Danielle Dax: Tomorrow Never Knows (1990)
Usually I don't like Beatles covers, but this is an exception.

The Runaways Schooldays (1979?)
Joan Jett was in this band before going solo.

Bow Wow Wow: I Want Candy (1982)
A post Sex Pistol's Malcom McLaren manufactured group.

X Ray Spex:The Day the World Day Glo(1976)
Singer Poly Styrene is one of my favorites. What an interesting voice!

BONUS: Debbie Harry sings in 1980 movie,Unmade Beds.

I bet Hec has copies of all these....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I didn't have them on video before, though I do have all the songs (excepting Danielle Dax).

Side Notes: the singer in Flying Lizards was legally blind; Sandy West drummer of the Runaways died recently; Danielle Dax had a nose ring before they were popular (also she recorded the tracks playing all the instruments herself, in the Prince style); "I Want Candy" was originally released by the Strangeloves in the sixties - a studio manufactured group which included Richard Gotterher who later produced the first Go-Gos record and Marshall Crenshaw's first record (not coincidentally their best records); I ordered the first X-Ray Spex LP special through GEMM distributors and it was worth about $80 before it came out on DVD. Also Poly Styrene was a young UK Muslim girl - as was Annabella Lwinn, the lead singer of Bow Wow Wow. Also Marco Pirroni of Bow Wow Wow had been in Adam and the Ants and later went on to co-write songs with Sinead O'Connor.

Wow. Cool.

Was it Laura Logic who was a Hare Krishna or something? or was that Poly Styrene? (I think Poly Styrene is my favorite punk name evah.) Wait, wasn't Poly institutionalized?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I thought I remembered she'd been hospitalized, but the Wikipedia page doesn't say that. She did become a Hari Krishna, though.

Rockers to sponsor under-10 team
A Lincoln boys football team have won a sponsorship coup with a difference after striking a deal with heavy metal band Motorhead. The Greenbank under-10s B team have the internationally renowned band's name on their shirts along with the band's motif - a skull named Snaggletooth.

The North Hykeham team also run out to the band's famous Ace of Spades track.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The INHD channel is playing Urgh! A Music War right now. So freaking awesome.

Klaus Nomi is way more freaky IRL than on The Venture Brothers.
