i would enjoy this video way more if they would remove the picture that's to the left of the video of that ugly, skinny fuck from that one stupid band. wish in one hand, shit in the other..
When Sonic Youth hosted JJJ Thurston Moore said that friends of theirs (not stating whom) directed a big budget 80's film clip and showed it to them. Sonic Youth showed this film clip back at them in response and it had so much more energy and was far more captivating, even though they literally went to the mall and stood in front of a blue screen at one of those $18 music video kiosks.
I'm pretty sure they explain this video on the Corporate Ghosts dvd, I know I saw them explain it somewhere. They said it was some karaoke type thing, they could choose what song they played and what video to put in the background and got to take a copy of it.
Music videos are so fucking out of style these days.
We few people who still think for ourselves need our own special place for enjoying art on the web. Ads, big red labels, commercials, propaganda, etc. don't work on us, except in the opposite. Repulsion.
The guys from Sonic youth wrote this song for Robert Palmer and he got a big hit with it. I was suprised when I looked in my media player and saw the name Bob Bert on a Robert Palmer song.
rather than fronting a band of Duran Duran drop outs (w/a Chic drummer/record producer) I would've like to have heard Robert Palmer w/ Sonic Youth moonlighters & Bernard Edwards on drums.
Possibly the cheapest track/vid they ever did-just hopped in the video booth in a mall and karaoked it out! "Talent borrows;genius steals",as someone once said...

I like some of Sonic Youth's songs but this is an epic fail. Certain songs sound like shit when they're covered & in this case this is what happened in this listener's opinion.
she's way overrated! and so is SY
