The Julie Ruin - Goodnight Goodbye

Copied!

Drove all night through the dirty melted snow
Didn't care if we ever got played on the radio
Held ourselves together with tape and twine
Wielded confidence like it was a shiny knife

Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye

It happens when you're not twenty but forty-one
And you have to sink into the you you've now become
Will the teenage sneer you so cultivated
Sneer back at you and make you feel so hated

Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye

Maybe it's human nature to feel so sure
That suffering's a good excuse for bad behavior
Left fades right and up can turn to down
Pain can't fade when you wear it as a crown

Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodnight, goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

The Julie Ruin is a musical project formed in New York City in 2010 by the iconic feminist punk musician Kathleen Hanna. Known for her role as a founding member of the influential Riot Grrl band Bikini Kill and later as part of the electro-rock group Le Tigre, Kathleen Hanna brings her unique blend of feminist politics and punk attitude to The Julie Ruin.

With a sound that incorporates shouty vocals, synth squiggles, and catchy melodies, The Julie Ruin strikes a balance between Hanna's punk roots and her more recent forays into dance-focused music. The band's lineup includes Sandra Landeau on guitar, Kathi Wilcox on bass guitar, Carmine Covelli on drums, and Kenny Mellman on keyboards, alongside Hanna on vocals.

Together, The Julie Ruin continues to push boundaries and challenge norms through their music. With Hanna's powerful lyrics and dynamic stage presence, the band has carved out a niche for themselves in the indie music scene, garnering critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base. The Julie Ruin's music is a testament to Hanna's enduring influence in the music industry and her commitment to using her platform to advocate for social change.
