Angry Johnny
"Angry Johnny" was the first hit song by
alternative musician
Poe released in
1995. The song was heralded as a
feminist achievement, as it lyrically addressed the relationship between
violence and
sex. The song's catchy lyric, "I wanna kill you/ I wanna blow you.../ away" was often the only noted part of the song in critical review. Poe seemingly faded into obscurity after this one hit until the year
2000 when she released her follow up album
Haunted.
