Lyrics - Concrete Blonde Lyrics

After spending several years in the embryonic form of Dream
6 (under which name they released an EP for Happy Hermit in
France), Hollywood, California, USA rock band Concrete
Blonde formed in 1986.
The founders of the group, former Sparks’s personnel Earle
(production) and Jim Mankey (guitars) plus Johnette
Napolitano (bass, vocals), were joined by Harry Rushakoff
(drums) for their debut on I.R.S. Records. Its alluring mix
of energy, sensitivity and streetwise wit secured Concrete
Blonde a positive response from both the music press and
more mature rock audiences.
For Free Napolitano handed over bass duties to new member
Alan Bloch, allowing her to concentrate on singing.
Irrespective of this, she remained the focus of the band -
her remarkable voice, which so More...

Review about Concrete Blonde
tomorrow wendy | Reviewer: jane weir
------ About the song Tomorrow, Wendy performed by Concrete Blonde
I heard somewhere that this songs lyrics referred to an act of euthanasia - Origin early 17th century in the sense [easy death] from the greek eu 'well' + thanatos 'death'. It makes sense with the lyrics 'Only God says jump, So I set the time' thats how they know that it is tomorrow that Wendy is going to die. Beautiful gutsy song though in every sense.
He is an addict | Reviewer: Carol
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
when she says joey i got the money... he is wasted and he wants to get more drugs or what ever his habbit is. She is just trying to keep the peace and to keep him in one piece. She does not know what to do.

------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
i was having an affair with my joey. we were both married. He stuggled as did i about our situation.He would always stay a while and leave, then come back again when things were bad. The money part i can relate to..(lets just go away together). But reality isnt the same. Although this song is probably about joey being an alcoholic or drug addict.I suppose itcan be just about joey not knowing how to deal with his pain.
Addiction | Reviewer: Johnny
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
The money reference can be her way of offering to pay for the vice that holds "Joey"; for any addiction,,,, as in "come back to me and we can work through this together". Unfortunately, enabling a problem does not and cannot fix it. But the love the purveys CAN fix an addiction or any problem as long as both people acknowledge, accept, and desire to get through it together.
Personal life experiences!/Love this song! | Reviewer: Mackenzie
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
well actually my ex's name is joey and im still very much in love with him. he started talking to me again and wanting to get closer to me again, and he was telling me he loved me and stuff again. but previously he had left me for his ex, so i thought it would be the same this time. well we were getting really closer to each other again, and i thought it would finally be my chance, but he got mad at me one day and found someone else and asked her out on the spot! i was and am still crushed. this happened a week ago, and i dont know what to do. i really do love him, but he has her now. this isnt the first time hes picked someone else over me, and i hope we will have a chance again. im just sooo confused on wat to do??? i realy care about him and want my chance but i dont think it will ever come!!! i wish and hope it will but i have a feeling it wont, that ill always be the girl that he messes with her head! i wish i wasnt but i guess i am. this song really hits home with me and its got his name in it and has similar struggles in it. im not angry at him anymore but im still in love with him, but i guess i should stop caring about him because its obviously never going to be my chance!!! =::[
Unbelievable | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
I just discovered this song yesterday, and I've never discovered anything like it. I found myself MEZMORIZED not knowing what went on with it. Her voice is really great, and i didn't even hear that at first.. Not everyone could sing this song.
This is the first song I've ever wanted to comment.
Joey, baby.
That Voice! | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
What a Voice!!!I just discovered Johnette with this song. She could sing about used cars with that voice and it wouldn't make a bit of difference. Unbelievably haunting-Just breathtaking. I love this song.
I am Joey | Reviewer: Carolyn
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
Maybe it is the person singing is Joey and the singer too. I personally fight a battle with myself. That is why the singer says if you are hurting so am I. My flashbacks about my younger self scare me. So my current self scares the little girl and the adult self. The money is for my therapy as they try to reprogram me to be strong and not so afraid. I often use drugs and alchohol to mask the pain and total fear that comes. There have been too many times I have been passed out on the floor, in the grass next to the railroad tracks, in a stragners house, you get the point.
Joey | Reviewer: mike of cnbra
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
The reference to money is a measure of her desperation. She loves this guy but doesn't know how to help him or understand what it'll take to make him happy...and love her. Look at the lyric about money: She just mentions it like she's throwing it out there. She doesn't know if it'll impress him. She doesn't know what it'll take to make him love her. In the end she can only offer the love that didn't win him in the first place. Money? (what will it take Joey)?
PLEASE EXPLAIN | Reviewer: redducky
------ About the song Joey performed by Concrete Blonde
I love the song but am a little confused...what's the MONEY for? I take it Joey's an alcoholic and she wants to keep trying at a relationship with him. Am I correct??
As good as any band ever! | Reviewer: Todd Evans
------ About artist/band Concrete Blonde
I LOVE Concrete Blonde. When I was in my early 20s, and wanted nothing more than to be a rock star, they were the only band close to my age who seemed to be really original, beautiful, and to ROCK. Johnette and Jim are still as great as anybody, ever. Their comeback tours were UNBELIEVABLE!
Peter left Wendy hanging | Reviewer: momule
------ About the song Tomorrow, Wendy performed by Concrete Blonde
And yes, our country has never been the same since JFK, Bobbie, and Martin were put down. What happened to the dream? Now we just force our will on others. Wendy is still alive and well....we just need to wake up and embrace her. What a wonderful song....

------ About the song Mexican Moon performed by Concrete Blonde
Mariachi's and tequila under the Mexican moon. I first heard this song on a cruise to cozumel in the early 90's. I played this song for a latin beauty and it was a night I will never forget. I am heavy metal by nature but this song took me to a different place and remains one of my favorite's of all time.

------ About the song Everybody Knows performed by Concrete Blonde
This is my favorite version of this song. I just saw Johnette live 5/21/07 and can't recommend enough that you check her out if she comes to your town. I cried for the first 10 minutes of her show.
