Won't someone please think of the sickle?

The poor sickle. It gets no love.

If I Had A Hammer - Peter, Paul, and Mary
Don't miss out on this fabulous cover, either! (Hee!) Also? This song will forever be associated with my number one best college story. I can never hear it now, without snickering a little inside.



Maxwell's Silver Hammer - The Beatles
Love this little animation I found on youtube. Also, again? This was one of my favorite songs to sing when I was in fourth grade, directly influenced, I suspect, by the bullying I was putting up with at school that year. Good thing we moved, I think.



Hammer To Fall - Queen
I am still bitter that my sister got to go and I didn't...



Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel
I always thought Peter Gabriel would've made an insanely amazing--with emphasis on insane--person to have as a short-term boyfriend, in his younger days.




Brenda's Iron Sledge - Robyn Hitchcock and The Egyptians
Maybe if Maxwell and Brenda get together, things would start looking up.



The Hammer Song - Nick Cave
You know, Nick Cave also gives me the insane vibe. Not, however, in the amazing way of Peter Gabriel's. This one I wouldn't even care to have for a one night stand. Of course, his music is a different story.
