    I had heard Joanie Sommers' "Johnny Get Angry" for the first time on an oldies station and was startled by its regressive message. I secretly loved it regardless, but I assumed no woman would want to revive it during more enlightened times. When I saw k.d. lang perform it on "Saturday Night Live," I was thrilled that she used it to make a statement that was relevant despite the anachronistic nature of the song. And yes, her vocal is remarkable!

    I saw her in Charlotte NC during this tour and we got to meet her after the show. Not only did she talk to us (we were on the third row) during the show, she remembered us after the show and was very appreciative that we hung around to meet her afterward and nobody else did. I've been crazy about her since 1984, when I read a review of her album in RS, bought it and wore it out. Her voice is hypnotic!

    @rivergirl2 Před 12 lety +25

    I think her cover of this song was meant as more of a statement. The song, in it's original form, sounds almost like a peppy endorsement of domestic violence. Or, at least, an archaic view of masculinity. "Johnny get angry, Johnny get mad...Johnny, show me that you care, really care for me." kd really brings that out with her exaggerated show of being hit (and falling to the floor).

    • @Bomthebom
      @Bomthebom Před 4 lety +3

      I know its a very late reply.
      But the original song was never about domestic violence.It was about a man being a man.Not the feminine type man,but a manly man.
      Johnny is probably a wimp,who doesn't even have the courage to stop Freddie from bothering his girl.When she threatens to leave him instead of showing of her he loves her and wants her to stay by going out of his way and doing crazy romantic things,he instead stands there like a little child being scolded.
      Her desire is clear,she wants her man to make her feel protected,to be her rock,someone she can count on through tough times,to show her that he will fight the whole world for her.

      If KD Lang wanted to make a statement about domestic violence, while poking fun at an early 1960s teen song, she could have chosen "He Hit Me And It Felt Like A Kiss," instead.
      "Johnny Get Angry" is about Joanie Sommers wanting her boyfriend to be confident, but not abusive!
