The original line-up formed at the 1997 Cramps/Guitar Wolf show by Stollsteimer and Marcie Bolen[1]. They went through a variety of member changes and band names, including The Baby Killers, before settling on The Von Bondies in 2000. Don Blum joined the band around 1999 after attending numerous Baby Killers shows, while Leann Banks was picked via an audition. The Von Bondies got their break by playing a New Year's Eve show in Detroit, MI in 2000. In attendance at the show was Long Gone John, owner of the Sympathy for the Record Industry label. This led to Sympathy releasing the band's debut album Lack Of Communication in 2001.
In 2003, the band released the live Raw and Rare through Dim Mak Records, which was followed by their 2004 breakthrough release, Pawn Shoppe Heart, on Sire Records. Met with glowing reviews, Pawn Shoppe was produced by Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads and co-produced by singer Jason Stollsteimer.

No Regrets
Von Bondies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No one takes you seriously when you're 24
So shut off your days
And turn on your nights
'Cause the chance is for the taking
And the taking's right
No you really haven't lived life yet
If you ain't got no regrets
What I did last night
Is none of your concern
You know I feel right
But that's none of your concern
No you really haven't lived life yet
No you really haven't lived life yet
If you ain't got no regrets
If you ain't got no regrets
Don't be mistaken
For someone who cares
Oh no,
Oh no you wouldn't dare
Your the path here,
The pawn I took,
The sacrificial lamb,
The spineless book
Oh no you really haven't lived life yet
Oh no you really haven't lived life yet
If you ain't got no regrets
If you ain't got no regrets
In "No Regrets" by the Von Bondies, the lyrics speak to the feeling of being stuck and buried in life, and the desire to break free from the monotony. The singer is addressing someone, telling them that no one takes them seriously because of their age. The lyrics tell them to shut off their days and turn on their nights, meaning to let go of their routine and embrace new experiences.
The chorus emphasizes the idea that if you haven't experienced regret, you haven't truly lived life yet. The lyrics suggest that taking chances is the way to live without regret and that life is about making mistakes and learning from them. The singer's actions are his own and he doesn't feel the need to explain them to anyone, implying that people should live life for themselves, not to appease others.
The bridge of the song takes a darker turn, as the singer accuses someone of being spineless and willing to sacrifice themselves for others. This line shows that the singer is referencing someone in particular and is not just making a general statement about life.
Overall, "No Regrets" by the Von Bondies is a song about breaking free from the monotony of life and taking chances, even if they lead to regret. It's about living life on your own terms and not being held back by what others think.
Line by Line Meaning
You feel buried, you feel bored
You are feeling trapped and dull
No one takes you seriously when you're 24
At your age, people don't think you're worth listening to
So shut off your days
Escape from the monotony of daily life
And turn on your nights
Make the most of your evenings when you can have fun
'Cause the chance is for the taking
Opportunities are there to grab
And the taking's right
It's okay to seize them
What I did last night
My actions are private
Is none of your concern
I don't owe you an explanation
You know I feel right
I know I made the right choice
But that's none of your concern
It's not your business to judge me
Don't be mistaken
Don't misunderstand me
For someone who cares
I'm not invested in your problems
Your the path here,
You were just part of my journey
The pawn I took,
I used you to my advantage
The sacrificial lamb,
You were my sacrifice
The spineless book
You were weak and easily manipulated
Oh no you really haven't lived life yet
You haven't truly experienced life
If you ain't got no regrets
Unless you have made mistakes and learned from them
