    What a tremendous clip, thank you for posting. I love how fast they play it. They were right in their prime. And yes, Brian Ritchie is simply other-wordly. Dude thinks right through his bass.

    I love these guys. Saw them so many times. I took my 14 year old neice to the beach was playing this song 🎵 they made up leave said all these kids don't need to hear this. I kelp playing it all the way as we drove away.

    Wow... Love it! Crazy as it is, my old roommate from years and years ago was married by Gordon's dad. I didn't believe him for years until his Mom visited from Wisconsin and talked about it... Miss you John! Godspeed!

    This has been of my Eighties albums still in my personal rotation! This was part of my daughter's home soundtrack since they were children! They took it to college, and likely shattered some of their friends. LOL!

  • @duskhusk

    great band!! too bad they are from decades ago .....never heard of em til the 90"s.....now the femmes are one of favorites!!!

  • @ironysteeth
    @ironysteeth 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    THese guys are very talented. Just makes me wonder if theyouwoulda came out in the 90's would they made it bigger? Just seems like These guys were trailblazers for the alt rock scene. If the trail woulda been there already, theyd gone lightyears further.
    Anyway Dont know quite where to post this, but take it as a request for whoever reads it. Make "add it up" as an AMV for the new "Hellsing Ultimate OAV" thats out. There's a few lines in this song that really paint scenes from the amv.

  • @johnnyswitchblade
    @johnnyswitchblade 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @shroomser1 I agree. My favorite period of music is from the late 70s through the 80s. 90s had some really good indie/alternative groups but then hip-hop and pop took over and it all went to shit.

    Yes we know what consensus trance is. Go away if you don't like the femmes. Why would you even watch the video if you don't like their music?

    Day after day
    I will walk and I will play
    But the day after today
    I will stop and I will start
    Why can't I get just one kiss
    Why can't I get just one kiss
    Believe me, there'd be somethings that I wouldn't miss
    But I look at your pants and I need a kiss
    Why can't I get just one screw
    Why can't I get just one screw
    Believe me, I know what to do
    But something won't let me make love to you
    Why can't I get just one fuck
    Why can't I get just one fuck
    I guess it got something to do with luck
    But I waited my whole life for just one
    Day after day
    I get angry and I will say
    That the day is in my sight
    When I'll take a bow and say goodnight
    Oh, ma-mama, mama-mo-ma-mum
    Have you kept your eye, your eye on your son?
    I know you've had problems, you're not the only one
    When your sugar left, he left you on the run
    Oh, ma-mama, mama-mo-ma-mum
    Take a look now at what your boy has done
    He's walking around like he's number one
    Went downtown and you got him a gun
    So don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me
    Don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me
    You know you've got my sympathy
    But don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me
    Don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me
    Don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me
    You know you've got my sympathy
    But don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me
    Broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs
    Can I mix in with your affairs?
    Share a smoke, make a joke
    Grasp and reach for a leg of hope
    Words to memorize, words hypnotize
    Words make my mouth exercise
    Words all failed the magic prize
    Nothing I can say when I'm in your thighs
    Oh, ma-mama, mo-ma, mo-my mother
    I would love to love you, lover
    City is restless, it's ready to pounce
    Oh, here in your bedroom, ounce for ounce
    Say, ma-mama, mo-ma, mo-my mother
    I would love to love you, lover
    City is restless, it's ready to pounce
    Oh, here in your bedroom, ounce for ounce
    I've given you a decision to make
    Things to lose, things to take
    Just as she's about ready to cut it up
    She says, "wait a minute, honey, I'm gonna add it up!"
    Add it up! Add it up! Add it up! Add it up!
    Add it up! Add it up! Add it up! Add it up!
    Day after day, I get angry and I will say
    That the day is in my sight
    When I'll take a bow and say goodnight.
    Goodnight.
