In one of the early-1990s riot grrrl zines, Bikini Kill threw a challenge at the young women of America: "Find the biggest bitch in town and start a band with her." Two decades later, that wise advice keeps making noise around the world, from Pussy Riot to the kids in your town who just started their band last week. BK’s 1992 debut EP remains one of the all-time great American punk statements. These rebel grrrls turn feminist rage into rowdy rock & roll fun, ranting and chanting over primal riffs like "Suck My Left One." They went on to make even stronger records, but the ballad "Feels Blind" sums them up – desperate, defiant, unkillable, inspirational.

“(We're Not) The Jet Set”

George Jones and Tammy Wynette were still married when they recorded the tongue-in-cheek "(We're Not) The Jet Set." The lyrics, written by Nashville songwriter Bobby Braddock, who also penned Wynette's "D-I-V-O-R-C-E" and Jones' "He Stopped Loving Her Today," make fun of the good life by declaring, "We're not the Jet Set/We're the old Chevrolet set." Braddock recalled that while writing the song, he needed the name of a city that evened out the rhyme he had with "Riviera" and "Missourah." “I got out a Rand McNally atlas," he said. "In the first part are the maps. The last part is an alphabetical listing of cities. I wanted a rustic, small-time sound. I went to the listing for Missouri. And I found 'Festus.' I loved the sound of it."
