Merrill Nisker (born 1966 in Toronto), better known as Peaches, is an electroclash artist whose songs are mainly focused on sexuality. She lives and works in Berlin, Germany. She plays almost all the instruments for her songs, programs her own electronic beats, and produces her records.
Peaches' music is preoccupied with gender identity. Her lyrics and live shows self-consciously blur the distinction between male and female: she appears on the cover of her second album Fatherfucker with a full beard; when asked if she had chosen the title for shock value, she commented:
"Why do we call our mothers motherfuckers? Why do we stub our toe and say "Aww motherfucker!"? What is motherfucker? ...We use it in our everyday language and it's such an insanely intense word. I'm not one to shy away from these obscene terms that we actually have in our mainstream. Motherfucker is a very mainstream word. But if we're going to use motherfucker, why don't we use fatherfucker? I'm just trying to be even."
She refutes accusations of 'penis envy', preferring the term 'hermaphrodite envy', since "there is so much male and female in us all". Nevertheless, she does not shy away from identifying herself as a sexual being, although she rejects the sanitised portrayal of women in popular music.
Although she does not hold a teaching degree, she taught at private schools before her career in music.
Fancypants Hoodlum released in 1995 was released under her birth name Merrill Nisker
Members of her band are known as The Herms - JD Samson, Radio Sloan, Samantha Maloney.
Her songs have been featured in movies such as Mean Girls, My Little Eye, Lost in Translation, Waiting, and Jackass: Number Two. Her music has also been featured on Showtime's The L Word television series. Peaches performed guest vocals on P!nk's album Try This, on the song "Oh My God". Her lyrics are discussed as part of the Queer Studies course curriculum at the University Of Toronto, and she has been invited to lecture at the Contemporary Music Academy in Berlin. Her most notorious song, "Fuck The Pain Away", is also the name of an Electro night in Brighton.

Peaches Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And stand by me all the while
Take happiness with the heartache
And go through life wearing a smile
Oh, how happy we would be if we
Keep the ten commandments
Of love, of love
Thou should always have faith in me
In everything I say and do
Love me with all your heart and soul
Until our life on earth is through
Oh, how happy we would be if we
Keep the ten commandments of love
Love, oh, sweet love
It's oh, so grand
You will find since
The beginning of time
It has ruled in all the land
Come to me when I am lonely
Kiss me when you hold me tight
Treat me sweet and gentle
When we say goodnight
Oh, how happy we would be if we
Keep the ten commandments
Of love, of love
Oh, how happy we would be if we
Keep the ten commandments of love
Love, ooh, ooh, ooh

The song "Ten Commandments of Love" by Peaches and Steve Keeping is a beautiful love song that outlines ten commandments to follow for a successful and happy relationship. The first commandment is that you should never love another and stand by your partner through thick and thin. The second commandment is to take happiness and heartache together and keep a positive attitude towards life. The third commandment is to always have faith and trust in your partner and believe in everything they say and do. The fourth commandment is to love your partner with all your heart and soul until death do you part.
The chorus speaks to the idea that by following these ten commandments, you and your partner will be very happy in your relationship. The fifth commandment is that love is grand and has ruled since the beginning of time. The sixth commandment is to come to your partner when they are lonely and hold them tight, kissing them sweetly. The seventh commandment is to treat your partner sweetly and gently when you say goodnight. Finally, the eighth, ninth, and tenth commandments are to always cherish and love your partner, never let them go, and always honor them.
The song is a beautiful and articulate representation of the essence of love and relationships. It emphasizes the importance of trust, communication, and understanding in a relationship, as well as the little things that make up a happy life together.
