The greatness of the song is directly related to the simplicity of the riff…no easy task when EVERYONE has heard it all, man…
THIS is “Rock n’ Roll”, what some people like to call “ punk”, whatever, it’s mostly fucking attitude anyway. This was written and released, Iirc, during the Reagan Eighties, that Consevative hell’scape of religious right lunatics. That was when they had their rise, anyway, it’s not like they’ve disappeared, they’re EVERYWHERE. What’s more “punk” than:
“I KNOW WHAT I AM
I AM WHAT I AM”
When nearly nobody else knows who THEY are, and they don’t particularly like it when anyone else does, either?!?
Anyway, just calling it The French Song is enough to git yer typical ‘Murrcn Square - L7, baby - to never listen to it. That’s BEFORE they even find out it’s about “bah-seckshul—OWL-ittee”

Nothing, that’s what.
@force263 Theres “none more punk”, none more “rock n roll “, than Joan Jett. Not Johnny Rotten. Not Keith Richards.
