    I'll be honest, with the like 25 or so seconds of credits before the performance began, I was ready to skip to the next RUclips, but your/her voice kept me, because for what it's worth, while I think I'd heard this song on the radio or elsewhere before in passing, heard the name Concrete Blonde, but it wasn't until one night I was driving around and randomly caught on what was likely some indie channel on terrestrial radio (because where else do you hear anything that isn't TaySwift/21 Pilots these days I guess)/raised the volume to hear Johnette Napolitano singing "Joey, I'm not angry any more" with the power of those vocals-- then Googled the rest of the lyrics, learned of her relationship to Wall of Voodoo guitarist Marc Moreland-- did I understand the conviction/pain behind that singing... and your voice kinda brought me back to that feeling, to tears, far more than many of the other covers I've heard on here. Bravo.

    Maybe I scroll too much... i feel like if I scroll down far enough some doubtful or negative commentary will focus on how similar your vocals in particular are to the original, like being accused of plagiarism. It's a hauntingly similar level of talent, that is for sure. Great rendition! Not often someone makes you think it is possibly the original studio version

    Today was one of those nostalgia days, I've probably listened to five different renditions of Joey today. Those of us who lived through the innovation that was going on in music in the early 90's didn't know at the time how good we had it. Glad to see that the music that was coming out after the stadium metal formula was broken is appreciated and gaining new audiences.
