I'm going with Lesley Gore's version of "You Don't Own Me" , which I plan to play in my set of 60's Girl Groups.
What a perfect girl anthem-
"...I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
I'm young, and I love to be young
I'm free, and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please..."
What's your fave?

Re: What's your favorite chick song?
Thu, August 3, 2006 - 1:46 PMHmmm... for the '60s, 'Tell Him' by the Exciters instantly comes to mind. But if you played Aretha Franklin's 'You Send Me' (1968), you can be sure Sandra and I will get all mushy on the dancefloor. That was the song we chose for walking down the isle after we got married.
Gotta hear 'New Toy' by Lene Lovich.
Oh A Oh. -

"Sisters Are Doin It For Themselves" by the Eurythmics with Aretha Franklin. -

Hot damn... that's an UBER Chick song. You may as well bust out Helen Reddy's "I am Woman, Hear Me Roar" or Shania Twain's "Man! I Feel Like a Woman". Maybe Le Tigre's "Dyke March 2001" -

Re: What's your favorite chick song?
Thu, August 3, 2006 - 4:58 PMAll this and no one mentioned Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Were Made for Walking"
Now that's a chick song if I ever heard one... -

Re: What's your favorite chick song?
Thu, August 3, 2006 - 5:10 PMSpeaking of shoe songs - I love Kirsty MacColl's 'In These Shoes'. That's from her last album in 2000, 'Tropical Brainstorm'.

Re: What's your favorite chick song?
Fri, August 4, 2006 - 3:15 PMOoh, ooh yeah! These boots are made for walkin...
And what about Cyndi Lauper's "She Bop"? (I've wanted to do a cover of that one for years!)

Re: What's your favorite chick song?
Thu, August 3, 2006 - 5:33 PMWhat about "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" by Pat Benatar?
Oh and to keep with Aretha Franklin mentions, there's "Natural Woman", and "Respect". Aretha is good for chick songs!
Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself For Lovin' You"
Cyndi Lauper's " Girl's Just Wanna Have Fun"
The Supremes "Keep Me Hangin' On"
Glora Gaynor's " I will Survive"
The Weather Girls "It's Raining Men"

You know, I had considered doing a set of '90s Angry Grrl Rock... with artists like Meredith Brooks, Tracy Bonham, Alanis Morissette, Ani DiFranco, Liz Phair, PJ Harvey, etc.
Good stuff. Maybe for a future Decade. -

Re: What's your favorite chick song?
Fri, August 4, 2006 - 6:21 PMGrowl.... PJ Harvey. Good lord. We were listening to "To Bring You My Love" at work this week, and it made me feel all funny. -

That could have been the irony of hearing "Working for the Man" at work! -
