    Yeah Johnett has one of the top ten female rock and roll voices in the history but when I ask just about anyone if they know who Concrete Blond is they say no or confuse them with something way off. The really interesting thing about Johnett is when she sings shes the loudest woman in the world but since I married the sister of the guy playing the drums in this video; Harry Rushakoff. I was fortunate to meet Johnett and the first time was down in the basement of Chicago's Vic theater. That's the their backstage basically because 125 year old buildings in Chicago never have enough room!!! Anyway Johnett in real person not performing almost speaks in a whisper. So quiet and I wouldnt say shes shy. Naw, I'd say shes extremely intelligent artistic and always paying deep attention to everything so she softly picks her words few and far between except if a subject is really up her alley and then you'll get some intelligent perspective.

During one show I was at she was threatening to throw out people for body surfing. It was a small place and would've been impossible given the stage and ceiling height.
      Then in 2013, on Twitter, she called some female chef the "C" word and threatened to kick her ass. In 2016 she was reportedly so drunk she fell over during a show in Fort Worth. She's talented and not underrated by any means. She's just not someone people enjoy being around.

      This song is much harder to perform than it seems.... although it don't seem easy at all.
      I have broken 11 bones from drunken stupors and many more from other stupidity-fueled fun.
      God Bless 🙏
      We LOVE you #ConcreteBlonde!

      I was 11 when bloodletting was released (that was before music DROPPED.)
      As a bass player and singer, I have always loved this band for many reasons.
      I absolutely LOVE Ms.Johnette.we have got to give credit to this great guitarist,James Mankey, with such a distinctive tone, and the drummers who played with them throughout the decades of REAL ROCK N ROLL.
      Thank you for making me still want to play and SHOUT ❤️ 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️

    Never was there a more pure band. Extraordinary musicians, poor conditions-ETERNAL FAME.
    The members of this band went into other amazing p,aces, when it was torn apart. Make no mistake: the fact that nearly every member was compensated well for the dissolution changes nothing.
    Concrete Blonde was AMAZING, and the music industry made certain they went no further, as a group.

    Feeling the fire
    Under my feet
    I was a liar
    You were a cheat
    Playing with knives
    We were cut close to home
    Close to the bone
    You're so alone
    Something to have
    Something to hold
    Something to share
    So I've been told
    Deep in your eyes
    You're one hundred years old
    Cause the years have not been Kind to you, you know
    Heal it up
    Heal it up
    Heal it up
    Feeling the pinch
    Feeling the hole
    Feeling the void
    Deep in my soul
    Feeling my feelings
    So out of control
    Cause the years have not been
    Kind to me, I know
    Heal it up
    Heal it up
    Heal it up
