Changed videos, the spelling mistakes on the other one were too irritating- plus the lyrics were wrong

it's quite good though
she's a bit old to be an emo. More a shoegazer

I've no room to talk.
I like Anthony and the Johnsons.

life is strange sometimes
you hear of one thing and then suddenly it is everywhere

finally!
I've been listening to Concrete Blonde for years and trying to persuade others of their excellence.

Snap
though I can't believe I only heard Suicide Note today.

After a quick google, I realise that not bothering to google bands for ages, means I miss facts such as they had a reunion tour in early summer :(

Concrete Blonde do a good cover of Everybody Knows
on the Pump Up The Volume soundtrack. I used to have a copy of Bloodletting somewhere too, probably on an old hard drive. Must dig it out.

you know, I never knew that was a cover
The best of, Recollections is worth having.

ridiculously hard to find on CD though
ebay not coming up trumps at all

I nicked my brother's copy :-)
I might be able to help you out with mp3s

that'd be good
torrents all appear dodgy on this one.

I'd buy it on CD if I could get it relatively reasonably

It's one of those covers that is so confident
it makes it harder for me to appreciate the original. Same with Jeff Buckley's cover of Hallelujah or the Hendrix cover of All Along The Watchtower.

I know what you mean
I love Concrete Blonde. Aside from my brother you folk are the only people I know who like them. Most haven't heard of them, and when I play them, turn their noses up.

She has just got a marvellous voice.

a fantastic voice
I'm still surprised by how few people have heard of them

It is extraordinary
I'm a bit embarrassed to admit this, and it may just have been the shitty stereo we used to play it* on, but for ages I couldn't decide whether she was dude or not.

*it being Everybody Knows

sounds as manly as Robert Plant I guess!
