Tuneage ~ Bad Ass Mothers of RAWK!

In the spirit of Mother's Day, today's Tuneage is my little homage to the 
Bad Ass Mothers
of
Rock 'n' Roll
who I want, desperately, to be when I grow up.

(Whenever that happens.)

(Please note that, in my enthusiasm for these righteous babes,
I may, just occasionally, use expletives for emphasis.)
(But only occasionally.)

(PS: Tune in tomorrow for a special bonus post, in which I direct thee to an interview
with the Queen and King of the Greek Underworld, aka, the main characters of
my upcoming romance novel, That Fatal Kiss)


OHMAHGAH, OHMAHGAH, OHMAHGAH
Check out Nancy Wison rocking the shit outta
that motherfucking intro,
Yeah, Yeah, YEAH!!!!!!!!!!


Yeah, ok, I know this was originally
done with The Runaways
But damn, I just like it better
when Joan growls it, ok?


Deborah Harry of Blondie
Yeah, that's right: Debbie's so freakin'
cool, she's gonna walk the hell
off stage before the song's even finished!


They really didn't need that
bloody apostrophe in their name,
but, whatevs. They still rawk.


 
 Nobody rawks the eyeliner like
Siouxsie Sioux. Not even Robert Smith,
and that's sayin' somethin'.


This tune did WAY better than the movie
for which it was made.
Way, way better.


You can walk like an Egyptian,
if you want to, I just wanna
be with you.


Poor Fred doesn't get a word in,
on this tune, but danged if
the gals don't rawk the hell out of it!


How does this chick manage to make
pigtails look so fierce???

  4. Most excellent choices Miss Mina! One person I would have added to the list would have been Pink. She's a total bad ass...IMHO. :)

  6. Glad y'all enjoyed!

    I admire Chrissie and Pink, but I don't quite identify with them as performers, ya dig? But they're both amazing, to be sure. :-)
