Poe - Angry Johnny - 1996-09-20

[@lisahasapoint]

Her timing is so unique. So chill but precise. Kills me everytime.

[@sashawhyte7396]

Man this song has some serious HS memories growing up in NYC. The 90’s were quite the time to be a teenager.

[@paulovsdasilva]

I will never forgive the music industry for killing her career

[@kless001]

The lyrics are so creative. You’ve gotta be in a certain state of mind to craft a song like this. Lightning in a bottle moment I imagine.

[@Jamiecbailey]

The song is about “Johnny Truant” a character in the book “house of leaves” written by Poe’s brother.

[@thewedge8823]

such an underrated artist. I wonder why her career was so short, pure talent here

[@InfectedChris]

Not her....the record label. It was very, very ugly. They aol time warner merger I believe. It's been a few years. The record label was horrid to her.

[@erika6651]

@@InfectedChris IIRC she released one more album and then they stalled her 3rd, which consequently never got released.

[@ryanmchargue7627]

@@erika6651 Yes, Haunted, which was largely a soundtrack to her brother's book, was released and it was absolutely stunning.

[@TheDamageinc81]

A lot of artists in the 90s got swallowed up by the record company crashes. A damn shame. Dreams shattered.

[@robertswartley4609]

She recorded under the psudoenym Jane with Conjure One on the tracks One Word, Endless Dream, Center of the Sun, Make a Wish, and Extraordinary Way. You can also search for her cover of Our Lips Are Sealed by the Go Go's. Not much, but at least a few additional recordings of this amazing voice.

[@Leo-yn5fx]

She was special. Truly one of a kind like Alanis, shirley, nina, sarah, and sheryl were.

[@titussardonicus338]

Crazy that I've been listening to this for almost thirty years. It holds up.

[@edwardsanchez3708]

I fell in love with her beauty attitude and voice from the 1st moment I heard her and laid eyes on her when I was 16 in 1996. I still listen to and cherish both of her albums to this day and she has one of my favorite voices of all time. I hope she makes music again one day

[@ellenmarch3095]

Haunted one of my favorite albums of all time.

[@Beardmo]

psst, you may want to look at her channel.

[@shinyminunthetheatregeek2036]

So sad i discovered her so long after she stopped making music. Got into her for her album Haunted, cause House of Leaves is my FAVORITE BOOK EVERRR but I really love Hello too! I wish she had more albums for me to love :(

[@Isaacandjed]

Her new song for Alan Wake II was so good, it got my hopes up for another album

[@74jtoon]

Jesus this was awesome. Always loved Poe. This is now my favorite version of this song.

[@zebanon5]

I think I still like the album version better, but it was a real treat to see this live version.

[@SimonRHoule]

MAN THAT WAS INTENSE! Why can't we have this kinda performances on TV anymore? Long time fan of Poe but had never seen this until now. Wow!

[@steelygray]

Thank you for your comment simon, i'm glad you enjoyed this. Just in case, here is another tv performance by Poe kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnjHd3SCgq6Jpq8

It was the ass end of the 20th century.

[@mementomori2540]

Thanks for posting

[@toddrichardson8595]

Poe has one of the Best Female Voices of All Time!!

[@astraluna6is9]

Saw her and Cameron only, open for Violent Femmes in like 97 or 98 at the Celebrity Theater in Phoenix Az. Strong female. Highly intelligent with her heart dedicated to art and expression. Being such a small intimate venue, that night we were family. And she was incredible. One of my few best moments(cuz there weren’t many)of the 90s.

[@tarcrystalline]

POE's first record is one of the best debut albums of all-time.

[@donaldstanley8990]

So underrated

[@skrach]

Give me this alto forever! Where has her voice gone?

[@MrKill_SC]

Too bad it was never released on vinyl 😠

[@doc_sav]

Bummer that they cut away from her to the guitarist when she tossed the mic stand. I don't think I've ever seen a cellist get that into the flow. Also the bass is so crunchy, it's a beautiful thing. Awesome.

[@brianrawcliffe876]

Saw her front row on the main stage at a festival in 96 early in the day and she stole the show until the headliners came on 12 hours later….the cellist was literally riding his instrument the entire show….A pretty amazing 45 minutes!

[@juancaca938]

I remember listening to this song for the first time on the radio, an acurate and amazing 90's experience... and yes, she's heavenly beautiful.

[@davidvollmar9029]

I HAVE MAD RESPECT - Simply because she doesn't hold back. Softly. With a big stick. 😎👌👍🤘💖

[@gregorydominick6057]

In case any of you kids were wondering, this is what an artist sounds like and looks like

[@Leo-yn5fx]

Oh god stop with this same old comment on every old artist

[@rtothec1234]

@@Leo-yn5fxwhat would boomers and GenXers do without making this lame tired comment? 😂

I grew up on this in high school (90s) and miss legit talent.

[@dan00001]

She was beautiful! Amazing performance, love this song,feel like going back and listening to both albums again!!!

[@alisonhell5993]

This version is seriously way better than their album version

[@melissasites1044]

This is a true live performance!!! AMAZING!!

[@tghost7721]

There's nothing like a live performances from the 90s😏💖

[@vovodoug]

outro grande talento que sofreu por empresa

[@ethanpruitt2061]

Right after my birthday.....fell in love with Poe......under the radar, low key....she knows wuss up

[@PsychedelicFreakshow]

I remember watching this performance on TV with her beating on those cymbals!!

[@abrahamkim1078]

Haunted was such a killer album. Bought the cd at circuit city right before a five hour road trip from Lubbock to Dallas. That cd was on repeat almost the entire way there.

[@Qkfreakshow]

Im from Argentina and a big Poe's fan! Her two albums are amazing. "Strange Wind" beautiful song, and her songs with Conjure One Are Great.

[@steelygray]

Gracias por escribir, un saludo.

[@kevinlambert2756]

Bought her first CD..what a voice...Then she just vanished..🙅

[@aceshigh6499]

I helped push her back on stage after a stage dive. Fantastic performance. Grant Street Dance Hall, Lafayette LA 8/16/1996!

[@zephyrjet122]

She's so exquisite live! A treat ☺️ Glad I caught her back then. Hoping for more ❤

[@RavenPoe-bz7qx]

Such a haunting song, amazing rendition, very mesmerizing presence 🖤

[@zenseed75]

Saw her in Biloxi. '97. So good! Loved her then she poofed.

[@boataxe4605]

Much better then the studio version, the louder, more distorted guitar makes it a different, better song. And as for the Psycho shirt, I love a woman who comes with a warning!

[@danramirez420]

just bought record store day vinyl of hello that came out last month...love this song, love poe

[@philoctetes_wordsworth]

October 5, 2021: where has PoE gone?

[@ericb5480]

Its song i heard was Hello. I was hooked on loop for every other song

[@robertanderson5087]

I seen her open for 7M3 while I was tripping on some acid freaking awesome show

[@clintedwards2034]

WOW! 😲

[@Snipely]

Love her, wish there was more.

[@djfan7310]

she's awesome

[@alternative-austin-rock2007]

I feel like I love her, this song makes me feel so many things it's amazing.

[@81rbutler]

Wow I just saw this performance for the first time. That is freakin' passion. That band got into that performance!!!!!

[@noelsonkwa]

2024. Still an original!

[@MrKill_SC]

Real ass music right here

[@mwarrenh]

i recorded this on VHS back in the day when it first aired. no idea where the tape got to, but i watched this so many times. glad to see it on here in good quality!!! thanks steelygray !

[@steelygray]

You're welcome. I posted this because t's a rare one and because i like it. Thank you for leaving a comment. Here's another tv version of Angry Johnny from the same period: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnjHd3SCgq6Jpq8

[@ThinkerThunker]

And ... I heard this for the first song ... today! My wife and I were cruising around, listening to the radio. I looked over and said "Kind of a 90's vibe, huh?" Turns out there was a reason for that. So bummed, I thought a cool new band had come along. (Where was I in the 90s ...? Busy.)

[@valuetraveler2026]

POE will you blow me … away

[@JoeHartman80]

This is so good!! I got to see her when she toured for this album. Amazing artist

[@VegasThePiedPiper]

The louder and crunchier guitars, and the lack of the synth-heaviness, make this a totally awesome but very different spin on the original

[@DeanOMiite]

I didn't really like this song when I was growing up (I was like 13/14 when it came out) but just tripping through KZbin world I came across this version and this is absolutely banging

[@patrickverona3098]

I saw her when she opened for Seven Mary Three a while back. She gave a show and had a lot of passion when she performed. Very beautiful woman also. Hope she is doing well as I haven’t heard anything from her in a long time.

[@yushublack]

fucking amazing Jonny Bones The G.O.A.T

[@TheBestMan77777]

I like her song haunted.. It’s deep and has real meaning.

[@hippiechic229]

Those who killed her career must be guillotined

[@WrongWayRomanGabe]

It's crazy that come to find out most of her albums/songs are about/inspired by her bio. Brothers Mark z, Daniellzkie (pen name) Book..marked one of the most disturbingly fantastical books ever written called House of Leaves which swept me to the brink of insanity as a teen BUt the main character is Angry Johnny..and that's all I'm gonna say..good luck

[@WrongWayRomanGabe]

The whole 2nd albu.

[@twallarobertson683]

No hard feelings Poe. Love it

[@voltz15]

Really upset with what the record merger did to her career.

[@slamboy66]

[@garyguild8845]

She was so real the industry shelved her 3rd album and kinda stood in her way from creating more elsewhere.

Poe fans need to check out "Conjure One "Extraordinary Ways". Also check out a song called "Center of The Sun"

[@cujet]

She accurately and beautifully captures the utter vitriolic hatred that is in the heart of some women. The desire to destroy a man using any possible method.
