After Juliana Hatfield disbanded the jangle pop trio the Blake Babies in 1990, she launched a solo career, performing similarly melodic indie guitar pop. Singing in an endearingly thin voice, Hatfield married her ringing hooks to sweet, lovelorn pop and startlingly honest confessional songs. Her 1992 solo debut, Hey Babe, became a college radio hit, and its follow-up, 1994's Become What You Are, was primed to become a crossover success in the wake of the commercialization of alternative rock. Although Hatfield had a handful of modern rock hits, including "Spin the Bottle," she never managed to gain the mainstream audience of peers like the Lemonheads did, and by the late '90s, she had settled into a cult following. Hatfield was raised in an upper-middle-class home in Massachusetts; her father was a doctor and her mother was a fashion editor for The Boston Globe. As a child, she learned how to play piano, and during high school, she played guitar in a covers group called the Squids before discovering alternative rock through the Velvet Underground. Following high school, she attended the Berklee College of Music in Boston, where she studied voice. While at Berklee, she met guitarist John Strohm and drummer Freda Boner, with whom she formed the Blake Babies in 1986. Over the next six years, the Blake Babies and their charming jangle pop became college radio favorites. Hatfield left the band in 1990, and Strohm and Boner formed Antenna. Immediately following her departure from the Blake Babies, Hatfield contributed several lyrics to Susanna Hoffs' debut album. The following year, she played bass on the Lemonheads' It's a Shame About Ray, which turned out to be the band's commercial breakthrough. The success of It's a Shame About Ray in 1992 stirred interest in Hatfield's solo debut, Hey Babe. Released on Mammoth Records, the album was very similar to the Blake Babies, yet the songs were more personal and confessional. Hey Babe was critically praised and became a college radio and MTV hit, leading to a major-label contract for Hatfield with Atlantic. In 1992, Hatfield formed the Juliana Hatfield Three with bassist Dean Fisher and drummer Todd Phillips, and the group recorded its debut for Atlantic with R.E.M.'s producer Scott Litt. As she worked on the record, Hatfield became a minor media sensation; her songs were accepted as friendly, more accessible distillations of the feminist alternative rock movement known as riot grrrl. Hatfield appeared in fashion layouts in Vogue and Sassy, and she became the subject of gossipy tidbits about her speculated romance with Lemonhead Evan Dando and her assertion that she was still a virgin at the age of 25. In light of such exposure, many observers expected her 1993 album Become What You Are to be her mainstream breakthrough. A heavier record than its predecessor, Become What You Are was a moderate hit, as "My Sister" and "Spin the Bottle" earned heavy airplay on MTV and modern rock radio. Nevertheless, the album failed to make her a star. Only Everything followed in the spring of 1995 as alternative rock was beginning to decline in popularity. The album was received with mixed reviews, and only "Universal Heartbeat" managed to make much headway on radio or MTV, causing the album to slip down the charts quickly. Hatfield returned in 1997 with the EP Please Do Not Disturb, followed a year later by the full-length Bed. Spring 2000 was a busy time for Hatfield; she released the quiet, reflective solo album Beautiful Creature and Total System Failure, a collection of louder, poppier material, on the same day. Total System Failure featured Hatfield, former Weezer bassist Mike Welsh, and drummer Zephan Courtney as a new band, Juliana's Pony, which was a trio along the lines of the Juliana Hatfield Three. Hatfield's next project was a return to one of her first: she reunited with Freda Love and John Strohm in 2000, launching a Blake Babies tour and recording an album entitled God Bless the Blake Babies. The reunion was short-lived, but Hatfield and Love continued to work together in a group called Some Girls, which also featured Heidi Gluck (the Pieces). Some Girls put out the Feel It LP in 2002 and also did a moderate amount of touring. After that, it was back to the solo game for Hatfield. 2004's In Exile Deo was a bit of a surprise, however, since after all her restlessness it was easily one of her strongest, most mature albums to date. That mature streak continued with 2005's Made in China, a raw and direct effort that she produced herself and put out through her own Ye Olde imprint, as well as the Sittin' in a Tree... EP, which was recorded alongside the Boston-based alt-country band Frank Smith. A collection of live tracks called The White Broken Line: Live Recordings followed, and 2008 saw the release of two Hatfield products: first, a solo album entitled How I Walk Away, and second, an autobiography detailing her highs and lows throughout multiple decades of music-making. In 2010 Hatfield released another solo album, the self-produced Peace & Love, through her Ye Olde imprint. For her next album, Hatfield reached out to her fans, crowd-sourcing the funding for the album through website Pledge Music and giving a portion of the money donated by fans to a pair of animal shelters. The album, There's Always Another Girl, arrived in 2011. Two other Pledge Music-funded albums followed in the next two years -- an eponymous covers album in 2012 and Wild Animals in 2013 -- before she joined with Matthew Caws of Nada Surf for a duo called Minor Alps. After this project, she reunited the Juliana Hatfield Three to record Whatever, My Love, the trio's first album in 22 years. Whatever, My Love came out in February 2015.

Robot City Jehovah knocking at my door What can I say I gave him some He wanted more So I paid And now he's gone Another round for everyone I just wanna be your sugar mom Dick and Jane were married on TV And New Jersey cried itself to sleep They tried not buying anything today Inside robot city Dirty virgin lying about her age She loves Frankie B. She dropped several hundred on her hair and underwear Make me fit in a tiny place Old lady's giving me dirty looks 'Cause I touched her space Dick and Jane were married on TV And Florida cried itself to sleep They tried not buying anything today Inside robot city Pick it up and put it in Then you go back and do it over and over again Dick and Jane were married on TV And Phoenix cried itself to sleep They tried not buying anything today Inside robot city Launch Pad By the launch pad We're expecting just a short delay The back of your head it telling me what you won't say It's not the tires on the track The broke her heart and broke her back The road not taken Stone unturned The letter written Later burned You say to me it's gonna be the longest day In the back of my mind I'm looking for a getaway But it's not the tires on the track That broke he heart and broke her back The road not taken Stone unturned The letter written Later burned Later burned The map is out the window I'm driving with my eyes closed I lost the plot a thousand miles ago It's time to go It's time to go...

The Getaway I tried to call you Sunday morning It was later than you think The doctor tells me that's a warning There was something in my drink And if I could hide my soul From your golden glow I'd find a corner black as night But I can't forget about it Didn't you used to Didn't you used to be My darling angel Who promised everything to me I saw you standing in the doorway There was something in your eye You're screwing up the secret signal And the driver's on the fly If I could find a way To understand it when you say There is a reason clear and bright But I can't forget about it Didn't you used to Didn't you used to be My darling angel Who promised everything to me And didn't you used to Didn't you used to say If I could find a way To understand it when you say There is a reason clear and bright But I can't forget about it Didn't you used to Didn't you used to be My darling angel Who promised everything to me And didn't you used to Didn't you used to say That we could make it Make the greatest getaway

Social Control I didn't even wanna be there I'd rather be at home watching TV But I went there to be with you In a bar full of people that I don't wanna know One looked at me wrong Or just the fact that he looked at me at all He was saying something stupid When I yelled shut up That made him shut up And that's when I said He needed to be controlled And I wanted to discipline him Free people need social control And I'm trying to teach it to them Then one bumped into me He crossed the line literally He spilled his beer in my cleavage So I slapped him in the face Then I turned him around so he was walking away He needed to be controlled And I wanted to discipline him Free people need social control He needed to be controlled And I wanted to discipline him Free people need social control On My Own Again It took long enough to finalize a vision And follow intuition like we ever had a hope Of staying together through that kind of weather The kind that starts with thunder is gonna leave you without a home Maybe you'll come over and wear me down But we should stay away and I'll just see you around I'm down to watch your wheels spinning round and round Til I'm on my own again Til I'm on my own again Bright city lights make us lose direction Fogging our intentions like you were waving around a gun And though it seems closer to feeling like it's over You're keeping a heart beating when it's time to pull the plug Maybe you'll come over and wear me down But we should stay away and I'll just see you around I'm down to watch your wheels spinning round and round Til I'm on my own again Til I'm on my own again I'm down to watch your wheels spinning round and round Til I'm on my own again Til I'm on my own again Til I'm on my own again Til I'm on my own again Stars in My Dreams She stars in all my dreams as a soft white angel She tells me what she needs she doesn't make me read her mind I could learn from this living minute to minute take me under wing She's up for anything and doesn't waste time thinking it over She just takes off running after anything you throw her She loves motorcycles, she loves open water She loves the wind in her hair Rolling around in the grass I will defend our freedom and if she's attacked She won't back down she'll fight with all the force and the fury the situation demands Rock Or Pop Does god read the liner notes Does god watch the award shows Or is everybody just wasting their breath on energy that is better spent Oh rock or pop Oh rock or pop Oh rock or pop Oh pop or rock Think of the difference Are you writing for an audience Or are you writing for yourself You're very willing to go straight to hell Oh rock or pop Oh rock or pop Oh rock or pop Oh pop or rock I don't want you to clean it up I like it if it's kind of fucked up You're so uptight and you can't relax You gotta get to the chorus fast Fortunes made Fortunes lost Throwing bottles against the wall Good for nothing know it all Where does the soul go Oh rock or pop Oh rock or pop Oh rock or pop Choose pop or rock Live Alone I wanted to learn from you All of the things that you think a man should do For me cause I really don't have a clue I'm feeling worn down bothered and abused And you wonder where she is today In a hotel room in another state And of all the people who are happy How many live alone How many live alone How many live alone Consider the circumstances When you tell me that I left you empty handed I wasn't always there it's true But I tried and tried to try and be my best for you And what's it gonna be this time Why do you crawl back when she tells the lies And of all the people who never cry How many live alone How many live alone How many live alone And you wonder where she is today In a hotel room in another state And of all the people who are happy How many live alone How many live alone How many live alone...

I Don't Know What To Do With My Hands The couch is an island A desert oasis The room is a spaceship And you're an undiscovered planet I push the hair out of my eyes I pull the blanket around me I bite my nails, scratch my shoulder I peel the label off the bottle And tear it into tiny pieces I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands Maybe the phone will ring And then i'll get to answer it A momentary distraction I can't predict your reaction to my touch I could sit here all night Our knees almost touching But not ever quite I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands I can't decide on a channel I'm just flipping around, maybe you can choose Maybe some kind of monster Maybe I just don't know how to reach out I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know what to do with my hands I kinda want it to stay this way No wrong moves, no mistakes Nothing lost, nothing broken Like a boat on a windless ocean I don't know what to do I don't know what to do I don't know what to do I don't know what to do
Far From The Roses From the bread and the fire where they sharpen the wagon From the pasture and high stream, giving tree and village green To here, to what this is, whatever that is They say where your heart is is where your home is Distracted enough to lose all your focus So far from roses I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake From the dragon, crease, from men and slaves Over crevasses, you can fall to your death From the bread and the fire where they sharpen the wagon From the pasture and high stream, giving tree and village green To here, to what this is, whatever that is They say where your heart is is where your home is Racing leaves on shadow stream and a concrete vine Pretended to hold still They say where your heart is is where your home is Distracted enough to lose all your focus So far from roses You are the audience, you're in the only seat You paid the backdrop and direct you the whole team The answer is almost always work, it's what you need Tiny victories and bursts of speed They say where your heart is is where your home is Racing leaves on shadow stream and a concrete vine Pretended to hold still They say where your heart is is where your home is Distracted enough to lose all your focus So far from roses
If I Wanted Trouble I'll just sit here and watch you smoke Content to think but never know Maybe get just a little high Just enough to unclose one eye If I wanted trouble, I could find it If I wanted trouble, I could get it If I wanted trouble, I could find it If I wanted trouble, I could get it This growing up, it never ends The same mistakes come back again I toss and turn when I'm asleep But in the day I'm making peace If I wanted trouble, I could find it If I wanted trouble, I could get it If I wanted trouble, I could find it If I wanted trouble, I could get it I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake If I wanted trouble, I could find it, I could find it If I wanted trouble, I could get it, I could get it If I wanted trouble, I could find it, I could find it If I wanted trouble, I could get it, I could get it

Waiting For You I was waiting for you Backstage, and in friends' homes I was waiting for you In the street, and in the night I was waiting for you Now you're here Now you're here All the time that I let slip by I was worrying In the end, you found me and We were rebuilding In the day, and in my mind I was waiting for you Washing clothes, standing in line I was waiting for you Like and island, ok, I guess Oh, but half asleep I recognize my home address I was ground and beach The air around me was still Locked out, still outside You re-imagined the story You rewrote every line I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake But I'm still waiting for you Start again, in a foreign town This is how it is Head down I wash the dish and I twist the lid Are you near Are you near In a striped shirt And a grand tote bag I didn't see your ring Scan my street, I haven't seen you since Were you just visiting Like an island, ok, I guess Still a third asleep I recognize my home address I ground my wings Standing on love's corner Waiting for my ride To get your house in order They say it must come from inside Les années réinventées Tu as un tel effet Tu ne dois pas oublier T''es ma sorcière et ma fée From every apartment A different kind of rhyme Not done walking I pass so many rhymes
Away Again I was sitting in my car Looking at the house I was in the audience I was standing in the back of the club They're selling the house Something's gone I can't find What I left In the basement How long has it been gone I like dreaming Where everything is new And nothing has been decided upon Like how you feel or what to do Something's lost The life you wanted to live Let me leave Don't listen to me Don't go away again Don't go away again Don't send me away again I won't send you away again Don't go away again Don't go away again Don't send me away again I won't send you away again

5th of July
( Juliana Hatfield Download Experiment ) I haven't eaten or slept but I'm not hungry or tired I haven't taken anything but I am so wired Round about midnight that was when I hit the highway The heat lighting was so close I don't wish that you were here You can't give me everything my dear That song comes on the radio and I never want to die The tension builds and I swallow hard so I don't start to cry I'm going really fast I'm singing at the top of my lungs And when it gets to the chorus it's like an orgasm I wish that you could see How much happier I am when I am free What I am and what you want me to be It's not the same thing What I am and what you want me to be It's not the same thing Being alone comes so naturally to me Maybe I'm some kind of freak The thunder finally breaks it echoes fate The rain is pounding on the roof all the windows down this is so great Cars are pulled over under underpasses Waiting out the storm I hope it lasts I never liked the way you hate the rain I always loved hurricanes What I am and what you want me to be It's not the same thing it's not the same thing What I am and what you want me to be It's not the same thing What I am and what you want me to be What I am and what you want me to be What I am and what you want me to be
A Beer And A Shot ( Juliana Hatfield & Frank Smith - Sittin' in a Tree EP ) I used to be so unsatisfied The sun never would shine on me With all the rain clouds in my head Looking for glory and love in the sky I figured out that we were aiming too high No wonder we're disappointed all the time Now all I want is a beer and a shot One thing I know I can depend on I can see that everything's ok I thank god when the sun comes up On another day People love and then they don't They come on fast and they go so slow I sit down and I raise my cup Here's to growing up A beer and a shot is all I want One thing I know I can depend on Much is made of the dark side but it's just another place to hide Might as well share the pain ‘cause we're all the same And just to be alive is a triumph in my eyes All the rain clouds in my head Now all I want is a beer and a shot One thing I know I can depend on

A miracle baby you would have them hate. You'll be a killer if I gave you a second thought. But my baby is protected. She is loved. Don't you get it. Get it. I gave you my best, call it charity. But maybe I guess that nothing is free. Your would have me pay, for just being. I know you but you don't know shit about me. Yeah. This is goodbye to scent and fury.

But maybe I guess that nothing is free. I will never pay for just being me. You will never know what you're missing. Missing, missing, missing, missing, missing.

Fade Away This is not a monument. This is not a holy writ Pull my photo from the sun To make way for the coming one. Ahh, ahhh ahhh... ahhh, ahhh, ahhh I am not an innocent. This is not an accident. In the rosy gloom of youth Every moment has its truth. It's gonna fade away, It's gonna fade away, Like God today, It's gonna fade away There is nothing I can say That is not a cliche. Love is not original, It's not irreplaceable. You are not the only one Carrying a loaded gun. This is not an attitude That looks very good on you. It's gonna fade away, It's gonna fade away, Like God today, It's gonna fade away Ahhhhhh.... It's gonna fade away, It's gonna fade away, Like God today, It's gonna fade away

Girl in old blue volvo disowns self
( Universal Heartbeat EP ) Bill and I were sisters in another life. That is why his music makes me cry - Not because I love him and not because he's really foxy (Lowest common denominator in the rock scene). Ride in my Swedish car, Swedish car. Drive with a sexy young road star. Buy not American. (American everything falls apart). Cigarette butts are piling up In my Denny's coffee cup that I stole From a Denny's in godforsaken Texas. Where is he now? (Now that I don't care). He could be in Germany. He could be just about anywhere. Ride in my swedish car, swedish car. Drive with a sexy young road star. Buy not American. (American everything falls apart). I don't expect to live to forty. I didn't think I'd live past twenty-five. To be afraid of living is to be afraid of dying. How can you get past this and cherish the fear of flying? Ride in my Swedish car, Swedish car. Drive with a sexy young road star. I'm not American, I'm a European bastard.

You say i'm crazy, inconsistant and confusing, selfish too And I know that it's all true. If I'd an answer to your questions, all the reasoning For what I did to you. What have i done to you? I was bad.....i feel like crap I don't deserve to look into forgiving eyes. Well thank the lord for all that i have taken For the hearts that i am breaking And then maybe tomorrow can i call you? I was dumb, i didnt know that it would hurt I will bite my tongue from now on when i want to shut you up When i have had enough of you. I will try harder to be nice and i will hide from the (lie?) Your disgust upon my face. What have I done to you? Please forgive, I really didn't mean to. What have i done to you? Please believe i really didn't mean to. I was drunk, I didn't know that it would hurt. I am full of good excuses for what I have done to you. What have you done to me?
Where would I be without you
( Universal Heartbeat EP ) I remember when you said how its all in my head. You said 'He may be the first, but he doesn't have to be the last'. Now, I gotta ask... Where would I be without you? X4 So sick of sitting in that room, Needing a new attitude. I said 'I don't know what to do'. You said, I gotta move. Where would I be without you? X4 It's alright to feel okay. Everything is easier that way. Tell me, tell me once again It's not the end. Where would I be without you? X4 You showed me its a crime To never even try. I could say i'm super-fine, but that would be a lie. Give it time and i'll change my mind. Where would I be without you? X4
Witches' Song ( Marianne Faithful / The Craft Soundtrack ) Shall I see tonight sister, bathed in magic greet Shall we meet on the hilltop where the two roads meet. We will form the circle, hold our hands and chant, Let the great one know what it is we want. Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire, Happy is our family, lonely is the ward. Sister, we are waiting on the rock and chain Fly fast through the airwaves, meet with pride and truth. Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire, Happy is our family, lonely is the ward. Father, we are waiting for you to appear. Do you feel the panic, can you see the fear ? Mother, we are waiting for you to give consent. If there's to be a marriage, we need contempt. Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire, Happy is our family, lonely is the ward. La da da da da da, la la la la la . La da da da da da, la la la la la . La da da da da da, la la la la la La da da da da da, la la la la la ... Yardsailing

Your Eyes I was drinking alone again You came over, my secret friend Then we talked until morning knocked on the door Then we rwalked out into the light Your eyes made it seem like everything would be okay, Your eyes Your eyes made it seem like everything would be okay, Like your eyes would never close. Like an angel you save someone By accepting her as she was There were so many things that I wanted to say The last time I looked into them You know what I feel You know what I need Your eyes made it seem like everything would be okay, Your eyes Your eyes made it seem like everything would be okay, Like your eyes would never close. Can I follow you down, I wanna follow you down To the ocean floor Your eyes made it seem like everything would be okay, Your eyes Your eyes made it seem like everything would be okay, Like your eyes would never close.
