  • Concrete Blonde performed on KEYE TV's Austin Live on Oct. 27, 2011. The band played some of their newer songs for the show. But as a special favor for us, they performed their 1990 hit, Joey.

      This song and Sober by Tool helped me to quit drinking. I can't listen to the song without thinking about my ex who died back in 2018😢 rest in peace Linda💔

    At this point she'd probably sung this song 1000 or so times yet the passion hasn't faded at all. It's right from her soul.

      Only other person I seen do that is Amy Winehouse. I watch these two and chills.

    I don't believe I've ever seen a vocal performance performed with so much passion at 20 years past a song's release! AMAZING!!!

    OMG I SAW HER LIVE 15 YEARS AGO AND SHE STILL SOUNDS AWESOME. HER VOICE IS SO UNDERESTIMATED. SHE IS PERHAPS ONE OF THE BEST FEMALE ROCK VOICES EVER. JOHNETTE, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE SINGER HANDS DOWN NO DOUBT.

    • @makhayahailey
      @makhayahailey ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I promise you I have never underestimated her voice . And I think in the industry it's well known. I hear you tho, this band should have been a hell of a lot more appreciated world wide.

    I think she look pretty dang awesome. She was born in '57, after all. And she still has an amazing set of of pipes, and she sings with her perfect soul. Go, Johnette!

    I will go to my grave never understanding WHY?!?!? Lady gaga, justin beaver, and Katy perry made it bigger than these SUPER talented people like concrete blonde! It pains me cause they deserve MUCH, MUCH, MORE RECOGNITION!! This song is so deep!! Everything about it, from the lyrics, to her voice, to the guitar, the drums and even without a bass in this video!! Simply AMAZING !!!

      I saw Janet Napolitano interviewed and she stated that the record companies wanted to control their music and they didn't want to be controlled it wanted to be themselves and make the music they wanted to make. That makes perfect sense because they outclass 90% of everyone I've heard on the radio the last 35 years.

    20-something years later I'm still trying to figure out where the name; Concrete Blonde comes from.
    Johnette has got a powerful yet soothing voice that accompanied me through the 90's. Thanks!!

    • @mem1701movies
      @mem1701movies 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Wikipedia says Michael Stipe came up with it. I thought it was because she was a real blonde underneath the dyed hair.

    I got into Concrete Blonde with "god is a bullet"And loved them ever since. Joey reminds me of 1990 driving around with my best friend Jennifer listening to this song OVER AND OVER again. It was just a magical time. Love Johnette forever...

      Amen to that Gregg. I was young when this came out and am feeling my age now working hard all these years. She's kicking ass far as i'm concerned. I sure to hell don't perform like I used to. All these nerd kids will get arthritis one day and not be as good at their computer games, then maybe they'll understand. Probably still live with their mothers too...

    OMG Johnette! Impressive talent!! She has a PHENOMENAL voice!! So underrated. Born in 1957 and she still has such strong pipes, an amazing figure, muscular strong arms, long hair and strong image!! She sang this song with such deep sentiment, nostalgic soul and profound emotion...The best of the best!! Not quite sure why she is so underrated. She has acquired well deserved triumphs in her life -- because she has it all and has not lost her many, many talents!!! Such a strong soul/personality! Tremendously multi-talented!!! Artist, song writer, poet, musician, singer, humanitarian animal rescuer, etc., etc. She made me cry with this version of this song. She gave it all in this performance -- She looked like she was intensively hurting in enormous pain for her suffering love in this song...Chills...FABULOUS performance!!!

      Johnette. I do too, unfortunately she fell into the pit of sex drugs and rock n roll that makes her live in the past of her glory days. But man she was one of the most beautiful sexiest woman around at that time my life, with a voice that echoed the depths of mans soul. Youth is a precious commodity, but when the wheel of life turns to gray you have to let go. Bless you Johnny, be happy for what you had and gave to others, the memories remain.

    I remember first hearing this band, a friend’s girlfriend turned me on to them. I’ve been listening to them ever since!
