This song rocks. I'm forming a math rock/post rock band with an awesome drummer. I play mathy-tappy-psychey guitar and sing. We need another mathy guitarist and a female singer. Listen to examples by searching for 'The Still Lives' on myspace and reverbnation
i cry all the time when i hear this song, it makes me feel so powerless, its so beautiful but dramatic at the same time. i love it. its one of my favorite from this great band. i love kim gordon, she is my inspiration to my songs, love her. wish they make a lot of things for a long time!!!
I'm wondering if the home movies are just old footage from all of the band members childhood/ or family members childhood/ and the newsclippings proclaiming "22 killed in" aren't just the bands joke on us trying to make the song/video seem deeper than it really is? Or perhaps they really are being sincere, who knows?
you have to admit, its unusual. in a song like this, its eerie in a way, dont you think? their (SY) new album is due out some time in june. i hope its good.
Sonic Youth don't do bad albums! I think Murray Street is my least favourite of them all and one with Confusion is Sex is difficult but they can do no wrong. I've seen SY almost a dozen times live now but I don't think I'm biased. I don't think Kim's voice is eerie, I think she sounds sexy.
maybe you can answer what the deal is with this song-- its been bothering me since i first heard/saw it here. what is this song about?! do you know? this video is haunting. i wont rest until i know! (and i cant find any links to a "thurston" or "kim" mailbag anywhere on the net!)
No, I don't know sorry, I've had a quick look for an explanation on the forums and stuff but got distracted. I usually get the jist of a song by listening to the music. I find it hard to concentrate or understand lyrics.

I can't decide if I should be more jealous of Thurston being married to Kim or Kim being married to Thurston. Both are just too damn cool.

Dead boy stares
Strange to meet you
Dead boy cares
So great to see you
Is it time to go?
It's a place I know
I can't read yr mind
I can't find the time
I can't feel the thrill
I don't have the will

I love you metallic blue
I love you golden blue
I miss you shining all alone
I miss you I don't know what to do
I don't glitter like the stars above
I don't glow like neon alone
Don't blush, it's just the wind outside
Don't rush to be by my side

A lot of Sonic Youth fans that I know hated 'Sonic Nurse,' but personally I think it's a great album.

the family video is from the 1960's/early 70's. cant be lee's son. is it a song about Kim's brother, who maybe went to vietnam and didnt come back?
this is a beautiful video. i want to know about it, too. nice song. if you like this, check out "jc", from the "dirty" cd.
