Easily one of the most underrated bands of the 80s and 90s. IMO no 80s playlist is complete without some Femmes and Boingo.

Couldn’t agree more! Is there anything better than VF or Boingo live!?

Most Wisconsin looking man alive what a legend

This song just hits right. Everything the Femmes do better than anyone. One happy, sad, dark perfect blend.

why does this sound so much better than the ones on spotify I hate that

There should be a new category of likes for this song.

I'm glad they put this back on here.

this song has always been one of my favorite, glad to know there was a video to go along with it!

Brian Ritchie rocke'n the black flag tank top

I can remember all three Australian gigs I attended First was Byron bay at 19 I'm 52

Love this song 🥰🥰

Reminds me of the pre-social media optimistic world.

Yay!

Brilliant

Can’t wait for the Denver show!!!

Trying to get friends to go to Boston show in the fall. Saw them at Bucknell University in college in the 90's!

Curious why Victor DeLorenzo isn't in this video? Was it made in 1993, after he left the band, even though it comes from an album that was released in 1986?

We didn't have the word Nonbinary. We had the Violent Femmes. We had David Bowie, Joan Jett, and Annie Lennox singing Sweet Dreams. It's only in my midlife that I have managed to pull back that shadow and be in that bittersweet remembering. Pluto has me picking scabs again, but this time I have joy too.

And Sinéad O'Connor, rest in peace. I remembered this comment, and had to seek it out.

Simpatica canzone

this audio recording seems slightly different from the album version I'm familiar with

you might have heard this one - kzread.info/dash/bejne/nGZ-p5uEob2aZ7A.html (I believe it's the original album version)... I prefer the version above, personally

Definitively this is NOT the same recording made for their 3rd record. It sounds much better!!!

You can find this version on the Greatest Hits package “Add It Up 1981-1993”. I agree, this version is much cooler than the one released on “The Blind Leading the Naked”.

Sweet. This video was on KZread before, but it was super shitty quality. Not a great video either way, unfortunately. But it's one of my favorite songs from VF. It was written for a movie that never got made, I believe. Funny because it sounds like a song made for a movie. You could almost think a modern AI made it today based on the 80s Femmes style if they hadn't done it in the 80s.

silly and/or goofy group name
