Le Tigre - TKO

Music video by Le Tigre performing TKO. (C) 2004 Universal Records, a Division of UMG Recordings, Inc.

I remember when I was 11, this song came out, and I used to rock out so hard to this. When I was 15, I got into Bikini Kill, hardcore. Now that I'm 20, I REALLY want Kathleen to sing at my wedding. That would be so bad ass.

[@deprivedwinstinchurhill]

Did you try to book her?

[@kaelynmulford5817]

she is on tour! got her concert tickets for February.

[@peterbillionaire]

I saw Le Tigre at The Bottleneck in Lawrence, KS. The audience was 100% female packed in front of the band. Everybody was dancing. The room was very happy. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@paultidwell8799]

Bikini Kill is coming to the Crystal ball room and I'm pretty sure I'm going. Although judging by the Local climate there's a good possibility the crowd will be more balanced. We have a woman for our governor and a slew of women in the state legislature, Salem is pretty well accustomed to the idea of Women in leadership roles.

[@joebaumgart1146]

I saw her back in the day with Bikini Kill and I'm non bianary, so when she yelled for the girls in the front men in the back I yelled "I'M NEITHER, WHERE DO I STAND?" She starts laughing and yells to me "IDK SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE I GUESS!" That was a fun night.

[@corinaklies8131]

Lyrics: Want more real attention At my expense guess you forgot to mention You talk good, I'll eat glass I heard you read my mind behind my back Outside, I'm waiting By the car when you're hesitating Take a good look Take a photo Write about it in your tiny notebook Don't you know? You're out cold Don't you know? It's our dance-floor T.K.O. Hear it on the radio T.K.O. Play it on your stereo T.K.O. Watch a live video T.K.O., T.K.O. Got your money safe Want to be "in" Everyday it just gets closer to you I'll say my piece And when it's over you'll be on your knees I got this soul thing On the go Read about it at your Barnes & Noble Don't you know? It's our dance-floor T.K.O Hear it on the radio T.K.O. Play it on your stereo T.K.O. Watch a live video T.K.O., T.K.O. Night is young And we all know what's up Beyond the seventh sun The ocean calls us Away from.. Don't you know? It's our dance-floor T.K.O Hear it on the radio T.K.O. Play it on your stereo T.K.O. Watch a live video T.K.O., T.K.O.

Technical knock out, it’s a boxing term.

[@thisorthat7746]

When I was 10 and listened to this song and saw the MV I always wondered why the "guy" was singing/mouthing to the song but you could never hear his voice coz it just sounded like the girls were singing. It was only very recently after I rediscovered this band that I understood, lol.

[@mariusgives]

This song is 12 years old but it’s still so good

[@frankster2949]

It actually came out in 2004

No.

[@shrikechannahcekirhs9011]

david stanley The next time someone tells me men aren't gross and inappropriate, I'm going to point to you, David. A woman expresses attraction to WOMEN, and you see that as reason to make an advance. It's like you either don't know what lesbian means, or you see lesbians as some kind of offense to you being a heterosexual guy. Either way, you're the bane of humanity.

lembro q uma vez vi na mtv e fiquei tão chocada na vdd 15 anos dps ainda estou chocada

[@BikeScene24]

I dont think kathleen hanna will ever sell out. Le Tigre is a different band than Bikini kill. Thats what side projects do, if she wanted it to be bikini kill then she would release another album with them. Le Tigre is her way of experimenting with a new sound. Even if it is on vevo.
