[frankenstienen]

[4535ification]

@frankenstienen no :) i think its on washing machine :P

[MrElethrir]

I always forget about this song and then it comes up on my Ipod and I end up playing it 20 times in a row and end up on the verge of tears, especially at the ending for some reason.

[freudastaire]

there are no better or worst SY albums. Each and every one are great and have their own personality. And i loved them since EVOL, since 86 a long long time.

[DirtyBoots100]

Best song ever made, and I have most their albums. If anyone is interested check out some Terry Reid if you like the emotional feel type music, just saying. But SY forever, seen them in St. Louis perform under the arch in 2009, it was amazing to see a band you followed since a teen (discovered in 1992 watching 120 minutes on MTV lol age 16) to finally see live!

[dclassic33]

i've always said this is the song i want to die hearing, but i have to hear it all the way to the end.

[TheTrainRex]

WHY IS SONIC YOUTH SO FUCKING AMAZING!? IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!

[SomeSunshineOutside]

This song's from the first album I heard by Sonic Youth. And I heard it by accident, too. I meant to borrow Airbag/How Am I Driving? by Radiohead, but inside the cover was the CD Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star. Thank you, library, for screwing up and showing me this awesome band.

[redblugreenjello]

what a time, we were lucky, 1991 the year punk broke. Amen.

[thecheshirejohn]

Kim Gordon (L)

[moriluk]

I love this song!

[revolverocelot1919]

WTF IS AT THE END OF THE VIDEO? THAT SOUND

[lorddorwin]

I don't know where it stands with hard core fans. but this was always my favorite album of theirs.

[jacobladders]

@lorddorwin this was the SY album that got me into them this album was given to me by my older sister but the 1st album i bought to collect their albums was Dirty from 1992

[bakesalee]

@lorddorwin According to their fans on the official website forum, the albums from the 90's rank very low. I however, being a teenager in the mid-ninties rank 'Washing Machine' and 'Experimental...' as my all-time favorites. When I was in 9th grade (1996?) I traded my friend my copy of Dr. Dre 'The Chronic' for 'Experimental Jet Set' - it was my first of many SY albums.

[NIRVANAenvivoforo]

[angzicc]

LOVE

[moohaumedsfriend]

I'll never forget the first time I really listened to this song. Spring break, took off for NYC alone without telling my parents. Bought this CD for a dollar in the basement of a thrift store in the lowest east side. My last day in the city I started listening to it, and this song came on as I was leaving. One of the most defining moments in my life to date.

[felixduhcat89]

Too many memories of being a teenager and listening to this song. This is a classic for me.

[marsiozo]

best sonic album imho. reminds me of weed and acid...

[jacobladders]

@marsiozo SAME HERE LISTENING TO THIS ALBUM HIGH AS FUCK IS STELLER ALL THE WAY THROUGH

[dirtymoonchild]

Beautiful and reminds of the pure beauty of teenage life...

[DirtyBoots100]

I'm a big SY fan, since '90, and have most their music and honestly in my opinion this is the best song they've made. If you disagree, then at least you must agree their prettiest, this or Diamond Sea. Just crank it 3:40 and onward and be at ease.....look it's changing........

[crookedrain771]

@DirtyBoots100 i have to agree with you man, this is my favorite song from SY.

[ErikaGee400]

Such a chill song<3

[johnnydepth76]

This album is part of me, though I don't listen to it as much as before.



[johnnydepth76]

Oh, I remember.... 6:24

[omfugger]

only 49 people know what really changes colors

[rsgrievous10]

@omfugger what?

[flo0r]

I'm coming home to Swall Drive!!!

[southpawmiket]

Same here Dman216 only it was a 83 vw scirocco for me with this album over and over, everything was so easy then

[iceysaintcollins]

Please, without further adew, give it up 4 SONIC YOUTH !!!!!

[TheDman216]

I miss 420 and my 84 olds delta 88 2 door going 70 with the cruise control on at night..smoking,thinking

[tarcanbueno]

true poetry!!!!!

never wrote before.....

[tarcanbueno]

vetusto!!!!!!!!!true poetry so so sosos....

[7d7e7f7]

The guitar is beautiful.

[Kaschelott]

Whoa this is.. I mean.. WHOOAAA! Time and again. <3 <3 It really is one of the most beautiful SY songs and it makes me wanna cry, too, even though many don't seem to share this feeling as regards this song. Maybe it's just cos it's mostly calm and somehow gentle? Anyway, I love it and I'd love to understand those closing lyrics. Can't quite get "the" meaning, or any meaning in fact: "Look it's changing colors, it's bigger than a hose/rose/horse/??" Whatever that means.^^ Amazing!

[positronikfuture]

Recuerdos!!!!..De una vida anterior en este misma vida!!!!...

[iceysaintcollins]

Everybody talks about cryin to this song, it makes me wana FUCKIN' RoCK.

[ConsumptionMayCause]

fuck yea

[eveningprim]

this always reminds me of being on a plane when i was 19, going to a town i had never been to and feeling alone, sad, but really "grown up" for the first time..haha

[falattio69]

Love the bonus track

[graffitininjalo]

great song ! but bone is the best

[C4V1AR]

soooo beautiful it hurts, it makes me want to cry.... but i never do

[casamesadoof]

avid fan of sonic youth and this song is one of my favorites

[zimbra]

kim's songs are so sexy

[miepdetruus]

just a typical kim-song, like most of her songs, really good stuff, it hits you somewhere, at least, it always works for me, it's just magic when she sings somehow, it makes you wanna go driving to nowhere for forever or something...

[jhordanian]

Simply one of my favorite songs.

[40acresandamule666]

great piece of undergroud sound from nyc!

[alexmiccol]

Probably the most underrated album made by Sonic Youth, that's the final track, inspired by a road movie never done, and the Kim Gordon's teenager diaries...Every time I listen this song in my car I feel alone and I want to cry.

[tomviolenceisadream]

this is my favorite album ever, and i know its pretty underrated

[x0a]

@alexmiccol

i know what you mean...

[fishonade]

@alexmiccol this is one of my favorite song of sonic youth

very emotional

[manero170869]

@alexmiccol Are you sure it is underrated ? That's very strange because it is absolutely my favorite album.

[mushroomsseason]

@alexmiccol mourn is the same as laughing, if you are alone. How do you feel better?

[thehindmost88]

@mushroomsseason By laughing

[TheLegitMan93]

This is one of my favorite tracks on the album.

[2bin]

Yeah, pretty fuckin beautiful.

[ofz2222]

[tomviolenceisadream]
