"Underdog Victorious" by Jill Sobule from F#CK 7TH GRADE (Pinko Records - June 6, 2025). Great for Noncomm, AAA, Women, Folk radio. Video Directed by: Tom Ropelewski Filmed by: Barry Braverman
“A witty satirist and die-hard Broncos & Nuggets fan I will surely miss laughing with her about sports and crying with her about politics and vice versa.” – Tom Morello
“She was so smart, so funny, so creative, and so talented. We toured together and had some of the funniest adventures… I’m gonna miss her, her work, her humor.” – Cyndi Lauper
“She was a shining light. Goodbye Jill.” – Adam McKay
“Let us listen to her music to honor the wonderful singer-songwriter she was.” – Tracy Chapman
“Rest in power my friend.” – Margaret Cho
“So smart and so capable. So kind. Never ever wavered in her convictions. Always cheerful and generous with her time and knowledge. If she didn’t know how to do something she’d figure it out. I feel lucky that she was in my life and heartbroken that she has left us far too soon.” – Jane Wiedlin, The Go-Go’s
“Jill was a bright light. A true warrior for injustice. Her gift was her ability to deliver cold truth in a warm way… Let her beacon shine on in us. Jill was a priceless nugget.” – Cy Curnin, The Fixx
“She was a true light and a true friend.” – Lizz Winstead
“Dear Jilly, Thanks for letting us open for you that time in Iowa and that other time in South Carolina and all the other times too and for letting us be a part of your Off Broadway hit show – that was a really fun stunt you pulled…We don’t like you…WE LOVE YOU.” – Antigone Rising
“Her powerful presence as a performer was a beautiful thing – utterly original, vulnerable and courageous. Jill’s wordplay and melodic sensibility was unparalleled…so much intelligence and also so much heart in her songs. No one looked like her, no one sounded like her.” – Rachael Sage
“Sobule offered some kind of vision for what a different future might be…every song on her 1995 self-titled album upended the pre-set systems for what mattered.” – VOGUE
“With a sharp wit and a playwright’s dramatic sense, Sobule wrote about characters squaring their internal lives with the way the world views them, and she had a flair for vividly drawn scenes in which people make discoveries about themselves.” – Los Angeles Times
“…a kind soul, passionate, wacky, witty, fiercely independent, and committed to music and the politics of social justice. She was loaded with talent.” – David Corn, Mother Jones
“Sobule’s ironic-yet-whimsical songs were perfect for the early 90’s.” – Vulture
“Touchstones hang around—manifestos live forever.” – Rolling Stone
“Sobule’s music pushed the boundaries of her time and she is considered by fans and professionals in the music industry as a trailblazer for queer artists.” – The Wrap
“… a diverse body of music that ranged from deeply intimate to socially conscious themes” – Reuters
“She never flinched from her commitment to writing songs that stuck to her values, creating music that was as socially conscious as it was scathingly funny.” – The A.V. Club
“She changed an important conversation and furthered an entire movement in her own way with her art.” – Forbes
“When we think of the great songwriters with a capital “S” that littered the landscape of American lyricists, Sobule should unquestionably be there among that pantheon of scribes.” – FLOOD Magazine
“…her rich catalog of witty, poignant and always right on target songs are a testament to her talent.” – Women of Americana
