Timeless song with meaningful, honest lyrics and a great sound. Perfect way to wrap up the 80s and kick off the 90s. Johnette Napolitano is an incredible vocalist.

@marlew6629 Год назад

powerhouse vocalist and iconic song.

@glennwood4300 Год назад

Saw them at First Ave in Minneapolis years ago. Great show live! I emailed Johnette to tell her how I loved the show and she answered back!!

@captainkangaroo4301 Год назад

I was at that show. Been to First Ave hundreds of times. I also used to love the West Bank music scene way back when.

@SaverioP Год назад

I think this song is about dealing with a loved one who is struggling with alcohol addiction.

@stevejohnson1577 Год назад

it is.. with a musician from wall of voodoo, who died of addiction issues

@chrissiegle1065 Год назад

One of my all time favorite bands... So many great songs, but they stayed just under the radar... Great reaction. Thank you. 😊

@erickent3557 Год назад

I wasn't crazy about it when it came out either. Musically, I was somewhere very different. Now, though, I can't listen without tears. I guess the power of her vocal performance, and the vulnerable honesty in the words. I guess I grew into the song. No one said it and sang it like her. I'm totally in love with this song now.

@curiousman1672 Год назад

Ugh, that voice. Instantly recognizable. Johnette Napolitano could sing the ingredients on a cereal box and would be glorious.

@ThePrincepiggy Год назад

Their version of “Everybody Knows” by Leonard Cohen is stunning. Particularly the few live ones out there

@dennissabe3277 Год назад

This is my all time favorite of thiers!

Haven't heard this in 30 years. Good song.

Bloodleting the Long Form london after midnight cut. is insane

@EgbertWilliams Год назад

This is such a sad, beautiful song. "Joey, I'm not angry any more." is so heartbreaking. In other words, she knows he's not going to change, she knows his addiction is going to kill him, but she loves him so much that she's chosen to stay with him any way, be there when it takes him. She's given on up on a happy ending, given up on everything, except for him - even in his desperate state. God, it's just gut-wrenching.

@tedcole9936 Год назад

I recommend “Mexican Moon” by Concrete Blonde from the album of the same name. “Walking in London” is also a great Concrete Blonde track. Awesome band, and lead singer Janette Napolitano was a great front woman in their early 90s run. Thanks for this request, from the album Bloodletting.

@darroncharlesworth6980 Год назад

@felixlopez1304 8 месяцев назад

If you’ve ever loved an addict, you LOVE this song.

@richardrodriguez2120 Год назад

To get the full effect you have to watch the video. It is a great song but the video hits home

@clayboutin400 Год назад

I was going to mention that if she had watched the video she would have seen that the song was about her (the lead singer Johnette Napolitano) relationship with an alcoholic. But even with that, Angela favors the tear jerking, emotional songs more.

@bossfan49 Год назад

I'm gonna disagree. If you need a video to get the full effect of a song- that implies the songwriter and/or performers didn't do their job very well. Nothing wrong with enjoying a video, but it's a whole separate thing.

@erickent3557 Год назад

Well, you don't HAVE to watch it. For me, the visuals don't match my personal vision of the story, so, the video detracts for me.

@melanieheathbeasley133 9 дней назад

One of my favorites back in the day. Saw them in my 21st birthday in Charlotte Nc as a gift from BF at the time. It was amazing. 1992

@mickdenis6630 Год назад

It's a tough subject matter, dealing with someone who has an addiction to drugs or alcohol. Another great song dealing with it is the Black Crowes "She Talks to Angels".

@jeffreyvelez1706 Год назад

Love this one ❤️

@mikeg.7248 Год назад

I cant believe you found thissong!!!! I usta sing this song to myself in hard times… still haven’t met someone who knows this song…wow,,, just wow…

@dennissabe3277 Год назад

I think a lot of us can relate to this song in one way or another......

@APaganPerspective Год назад

and a killer bass player

@APaganPerspective Год назад

Johnette Napolitano is a GODDESS

@tedcole9936 Год назад

Heartily agree ❤

@richwilson8658 Год назад

Napolitano mentioned in her book Rough Mix that the song was written about her relationship with Marc Moreland of the band Wall of Voodoo.

@mil2k11 Год назад

This young lady clearly had no clue what the song was about.

Love Johnette's raspy voice.

@mattbrothers2197 Год назад

First time hearing them!! Nice!!! Love her voice and they are great musicians! 😊

@david5544g 11 месяцев назад

She does have a fantastic voice... I'm old, reminds me of Ann Wilson from the band "Heart"... Check them out, take care.

@AkelaTalamasca Год назад

Thank you for listening to this. One of my favorites by Concrete Blonde.

@ridgebackdk 9 месяцев назад

Such an under appreciated band... been a fan since I first heard joey whenit first came out...bloodletting and free two of my favourite albums ever...

@Littleman91779 Год назад

Concrete Blonde has been my favorite band since I first heard them at the young age of 19 while in the Army stationed in Germany 1990. For me they have no songs that are bad and I'm now 51 and still listen to them all the time. You are the only reactor on RU-vid that I've seen who's reacted to them so I immediately subscribed, thank you for that it's obviously up to you but you should react to more.of them.

Brings back memories

@stevenruvolo499 Год назад

song about alchoholism

@markusantonio4866 Год назад

Check out Kim, Tomorrow Wendy, Caroline, Still in Hollywood, God is a Bullet are some of their great songs. A band not to miss.

@richardpowell1220 Год назад

"Still in Hollywood" is a great song they used in a criminally underrated movie "The Hidden", featuring a murderous space alien who rocks out to punk music.

@markusantonio4866 Год назад

@@richardpowell1220 I remember that movie 87 or 88 with Kyle MacLachlan. The alien took over an old guys body and he was listening to harder music with a huge ghetto blaster radio.

@jerrymyers870 4 месяца назад

I hear a Annie Lennox/ Cher influence....Joey is an all time favorite song of mine.

@david5544g 11 месяцев назад

If you reacted to Concrete Blonde live you would like them more than just listening and viewing the lyrics.... There's visual emotions behind it that get lost.... Great content, take care.

@SuperDevilGirl666 Год назад

Always love this song ❤️❤️

@GetsumJ 8 месяцев назад

Back when the song was released, I thought it was pretty awesome with her voice, the tempo, and the catchy drum riffs. Then I had the song meaning explained to me by a "Un-named" band member from "Wall of Voodoo" at a sound studio. The song still exemplifies the reality of having to deal with an alcoholic you love. If you don't get it, most never will. It is one of my top songs of all time.

Personally, I am crazy about this song. 😀

@Robert44444444 Год назад

Kinda scanned through the comments and was surprised that I didn't see anyone mention how in the higher registers this person sings/sounds quite a bit like Mickey Thomas from Starship… there's a few vocal phrases in this track where my brain just hears Mickey Thomas… it's uncanny.

@sterlingknight8087 Год назад

Do "Bloodletting."

@matthewgoodA1206 Год назад

One of my favorite bands for a long time now. Glad you picked up on Johnette’s voice- it’s always been incredible and powerful. Totally its own unique sound and she can belt like nobody’s business. This was really their only semi-successful single. It’s the one most people know by them. But they went much deeper and stronger on their albums than this.

@bigk4755 Год назад

Great reaction. I had forgotten about Concrete Blonde, probably because I am not listening to the radio that much anymore (too damn many commercials and yapping for my tastes). Janette Napolitano has a great power singer that really should have gotten more recognition for her vocal work. I can understand your ambivalence about Joey since that song is about a love affair that has it's struggles. Angela you should check out Mexican Moon, also by Concrete Blonde. You will really like that one, I think.

@GTR0419 Год назад

The song isn't strictly really about a love affair. It's about addiction. Sure, it affects the relationship, but it's darker than the normal struggles.

@salemdevereaux5729 Год назад

Yeah, I just feel like maybe you didn’t really get it.

@marekreardon3977 Год назад

Concrete Blonde's Bloodletting album is an absolute Gem 💎 one of those listen through albums without a single bad track - I think this was the only single from it which seems odd given the strength of the album.

@dalepetersen1166 Год назад

Today's music sucks there is nothing that comes even close to this this is so heavy compared to the crap that's on the radio now why why can't we make anything worthwhile. I knew this was cool when it came out in 1990 how come young people today don't crave something that's cool

@livelonglovelife1 Год назад

God is a Bullet is another track of many of CB greats.

@Jihavoh777 Год назад

I think she sings best on Heal It Up

@TokiDoki-jt3of 7 месяцев назад

Concrete blonde is the best

@chriscraft77022 Год назад

you sort of need to see the video of joey im sure you have by now

@nomisnestral6956 Год назад

Aaah, the Ronettes intro.

@angellucas-ranck9594 Год назад

You really should checkout their song “Tomorrow Wendy” it’s another great from them.

@Ontariosound Год назад

Great band, saw them a few times up here in Toronto. This was their big radio hit. Caroline is a better song though. Heal It Up is their best IMHO.......

@anthonypowell6234 Год назад

This is one song that would have affected you more deeply if you had watched the accompanying video.

@asherdash12 Год назад

Haven't heard this song in forever. It was an awful evil time in my life(all my own doing 🙄) but I loved this song anyway...

@rmsmith2396 Год назад

She missed the point.

@dckmiller Год назад

I always thought this song sounded like a Heart song. She sounds a little like Ann Wilson.

@michaelgarza9140 Год назад

you are a very beautiful woman

@arrowheadftball 7 месяцев назад

??. Wow I guess the lyrics to song's are really important with girls...sarcasm intended. Way to deep of a song to understand after 1 listen anyway. You need to stick with Spice girls and Taylor Swift stuff.

@tedhaley1210 7 месяцев назад

😂 I thought the same thing! Completely went over her head (and most of the people commenting). She’s swaying to the music completely oblivious to the sadness of the song about the struggles with addiction.

@tedhaley1210 7 месяцев назад

@tommccarthy3052 Год назад

Honestly? Unquestionably the weakest song on the LP. On the tour - or at least the show I saw - about halfway thru they kicked it into overdrive and turned into a Punk song. That being said good for you for listening to the song. The entire LP has this very personal/painful vibe. And yes to back up what other people said they were a great live band. & James Mankey always play d the right guitar for the songs. "Heal It Up" & "God is a Bullet" are more powerful songs (neither on this LP).
