station to station: Tuesday Top Ten: Violent Femmes Songs
Jun 12th 2012, 11:30

Next month will mark thirty years ago that the Violent Femmes recorded their songs for their self titled debut classic that went on to be released in 1983. After hearing some Femmes on the IPOD on the way to work yesterday ("Out The Window"), I thought I'd throw out my ten favorite Violent Femmes songs this Tuesday. The Femmes spent countless years trying to live up to their superb debut and sometimes had some base hits. But their folk punk on the debut remains my favorite. It's hard to believe it will turn 30 next year. I'll throw "Blister In The Sun" as a bonus pick because I don't know where to put it. Viva Wisconsin!

Ten Femmes Songs that satisfy my soul.

1. Gone Daddy Gone
2. Prove My Love
3. I Held Her In My Arms
4. Add It Up
5. American Music
6. It's Gonna Rain
7. Kiss Off
8. Don't Start Me On The Liquor
9. Jesus Walking On The Water
10. Ugly

5 Bonus Picks: Blister In The Sun, Nothing Worth Living For, Out The Window, Fat, Please Do Not Go
