What's the name of this song/band?

[Octoberist]

I once heard this song on Jonesy's Jukebox, a program on the radio with host Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols. Well, the station is now off the air and I've been trying to find this song ever since.

For odd reason, it's incredbily catchy. It's more of a song of the lead singer's role as female in the punk age, but I can still admire it.

I've heard this song before but unfortunately, I don't know the name of the band. Maybe you can e-mail the station, after all they remain as an online broadcast. You're talking about Indie 103.1 right?

 

[Octoberist]

yup. But it was when Johnny Knoxville was hosting the show when Steve was on tour. hmmm... Maybe I could e-mail them anyway.

[Lasirius]

You should, you might get a response.

Wow, Google didn't help me -- that's new.

I searched on Yahoo and Youtube and nothing .

 

[Octoberist]

seriously, i've tried google and nothing turned up. Must be a really obscure song then.

But yeah, I'll e-mail them. I just don't know who's working over there now; most of the staff of Indie 103.1 are gone.

[Motown Marvel]

the name of the song is sticks and stones. unfortunately for you, its a song that hundreds of people have covered. so as to who did this version, no idea.

Voice 1: Nothing....you wont say nothing.....you wont say nothing....and that just fine.

Voice 2: Take me back to that day when i was blind i would like to see your face one last time.

Voice 3: Sticks and stones may break my bones
but names will never hurt me
and it's been years but still i fear that someday they'll desert me
oh, it's hard, i know
when it's time to stand alone
and no one understands you

 

[Octoberist]

found it.

Thee Headcoatees
"Sticks and Stones"

actually this is not that old of a song (circa 1997)

 

[Lasirius]

Where did you find it? I must know.

 

[Octoberist]

i ask my bud neil about the song so he wrote down the chrous on this lyrics program on his iphone. that's how we got it.

I was shocked because I told him that 'google' had nothing.

If you're asking me where I originally found the song, I wrote about it in my first post.

Awesome, thanks for the info .
