Do You Really Want To Hurt Me? [Violent Femmes / Culture Club]

From The Vault … June 6, 2012

Last year I went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame when they had their special “Women Who Rock” exhibit. It wasn’t bad I suppose, but they over looked some obvious choices … Like Alice Cooper, Marylin Manson, Twisted Sister, Catherine Wheel and Alice in Chains.

Also over looked, Violent Femmes. Here they are covering the Culture Club’s “Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?”

Gone Daddy Gone [Gnarls Barkley / Violent Femmes]

From the Vault … October 22, 2010

Gnarls Barkey took their version of Gone Daddy Gone to #35 on the charts. Something the college rock band Violent Femmes never dreamed of in 1982 when they released the song. Then again there aren’t many songs with xylophone solos that chart, let alone two xylophone solos.

Crazy [Violent Femmes / Gnarls Barkley]

From the Vault … October 21, 2010

There’s been a number of songs called “Crazy.” Patsy Cline did one. Seal did one. However in early 2006 there was one “Crazy,” and it was everywhere. You simply couldn’t escape Gnarls Barkley. This however, isn’t that song. Not exactly anyway.

Violent Femmes released a cover of the song on June 24, 2008. It was their first newly recorded song since 2000, which wasn’t entirely new anyway, just a redone version of “Blister in the Sun” called “Blister 2000” for the Grosse Point Blank soundtrack. Take it as a musical nod to Gnarls Barkley for their cover over the Violent Femmes song “Gone Daddy Gone.”

Hmmm … that gives me and idea for the next post!
