@@mrbeefhead You can not be serious? japan is not new york. and the beatles don't have a catalogue of such great influence as sonic youth do. i grew up listening to the Beatles but they would not be in my top one hundred. the best music has come out of the US for such a long time. punk and no wave started here. John lennon had a few songs that are considered influential, but for me the beatles were a cash spinner, dull frankly (Written expression revised 19/01/2020)
This song has special meaning to me. I met a girl in HS in 1993 and introduced her to SY. This song was on the first time I kissed her. Over 20 years later and a divorce from the same girl; I cannot listen to this song without thinking about that night in Randolph NJ in 1993. :(
+Jamie Webster I still want to hear the full story behind "Genetic". Like some rumours have him so pissed that it was left off Dirty that he quit the band for a couple weeks. I tend to believe above story as, well, that song is better than 95% of that album ("Wish Fulfillment" being as good).
i smile everytime somebody says, "most os the time its just noise!". Thats what is all about the noise, the amps, the feedback, total sonic experimentation.
[Lee] When you see the spiral turning through alone And you feel so heavy that you just can't stop it When this sea of madness turns you into stone Picture of your life shoots like a rocket All the time Put 'me' in the equation it's alright I've seen you moving in and out of sight My friends tell me it's all cut through you (?) From nowhere - to nowhere Cut together - cutting through I'm island-bound, a mote inside my eye I can't see you breathing as before I am airless - a vacuum child I can't stand to reason at your door In this time Put 'me' in the equation it's alright I've seen you moving in and out of sight My friends tell me it's all cut through you (?) From nowhere - to nowhere Come together I'm down in the daytime out of sight Comin' in from dreamland I'm on fire I can see it's all been here before Dream a dream that lies right at your door When the seasons circle sideways out of turn And words don't speak just fall across the carpet You're just in time to watch the fires burn It seems a crime but yr. face is bright you love it All the time...
I had depression in high school 1992 ( like most other kids) and use to put this on to max the shit out of my depression- it would get so dark it would become more of a natural high...it was a strange ride.
This song happens to blend melodic soothing vocals and a punk riff progression in a strange marriage, and it works so well. Throw in the noise and it is unbelievable.
This really was the best song on the album. I can honestly say I hit the rewind button on my cassette player at least six time when I heard it. Man! This brings back memories!

Still fucking mint. I bought this back when it first came out, so I've been listening to it for about 30 years now, and I still absolutely love this track.
That´ll always be my song for skateboarding (Someone had Toy Machine´s "Jump Off a Building" & the first 3 mins of that song were in Ed Templeton´s part. Around 1998.). Always had/loved TM-decks & heard that song in my inner ear while skating!
I cant believe they dont credit the videos directors. They had some seriously heavy hitters from the art world making their videos. Anyway, one of the best tracks on one of the best SY albums. Rock on, Lee
Everybody is talking about Lee's voice, and I agree, but J's voice is also super cool (I am speaking about J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr., he is on backvocals, you can hear him very well in the beginning of the third verse at 2:20) Overall, very good song, love it!
super grooved cool,totally like laying here looking up in the knight at that mass spiraling like a wagonwheel through space,, as feeling myself absorbed into the cut and grooven in the beautiful deep dark beauty needle goes in, as it spins , catching the light, sending it out and around in my mind far out man,,,
I first heard this song on Toy Machine's Jump Off A Building skate video when I was ten or eleven. I think it played over Ed Templeton's scene. It's the reason I got into Sonic Youth years later and is still one of my favorites. Lee has some bangers, I love Wish Fulfillment and Karen Revisited.
In 1990, back before there was Nirvana (for me.) There was this album. Unfortunately, I was by myself experiencing this sonic soundscape of an album. Kind of like it would be for a Skinny Puppy album listening experience for me. This takes me back.
Kim's bass is brilliant in this one, I play gass and we cover this in our band. The only reason why Lee and Thurston get away with their 'thing' is a super tight rhythm section with solid bass
Love seeing the Lee Ranaldo love fest in these comments. Definitely agree it's a shame he didn't get more songs, especially during the 90s era. Seemed like he got way more songs in the 80s. Would be a shame if Kim and Thurston refused to let him have more songs on the albums. But regardless, it's undeniable that his songs always stood out.
my friend tells me that all the time . saying " they don't even use proper tunings " I'm like " yeah , thats the point " they are being CREATIVE and pushing the limits of Alt rock .

funny, cause ronaldo is my favorite footballer
@TomorrowNeverKnows Wait! This is not Primus...
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that they made a music video for every single song on this album, not just the singles?
Yes
They took the money they would give them to make one video and split the money up to pay underground video artists/Filmmakers to make the videos.
Foo Fighters did they same with Wasting Light
Hey! I bought the video album!
I tried to like your comment twice.
GOO is the record where Renaldo really came into his own as a songwriter. One of the best songs in the group's entire catalog
This song has special meaning to me. I met a girl in HS in 1993 and introduced her to SY. This song was on the first time I kissed her. Over 20 years later and a divorce from the same girl; I cannot listen to this song without thinking about that night in Randolph NJ in 1993. :(
Bill Rice dang, well at least you kissed to a fucking awesome song!!
very cool feeling!
man i got this one person i was all about and sonic youth was very crucial in our relationship of unrequited love i appreciate your story
Bill Rice 😔😔😔😔
yeh but you did make the magic happen with SY. 20+yrs not a bad run this day and era.
I am 53 years old, but when I listen to this song I turn the volume to the maximum and I am a teenager again
53
Mee too!😂
Best song on the album.
+themilkman3333 What's about "Cool Thing", "Mildred Pierce" and "Titanium Expose"????
I think this song is still the best on the album.
+themilkman3333 ...for me its the best Sonic Youth song ever
+Федя Кастров This is still the best album, even if it's not the pop-iest.
+themilkman3333 2nd best, just under Tunic.
Something about Lee's voice is really calming to me.
Same here
same here o/
His voice is like Misfits, Morrissey and The Cure together, and that's sooo good
Indeed!
Agree like a big brother that wants to save you from you,, I love this!!!!???
Why is no one mentioning how insanely awesome the bass is on this track!?
Kim is the real star on here. As many many times.
I was thinking the same thing.
Is it me or was Lee Ranaldo's one song per album always the best?
I know this one is
+Jamie Webster I still want to hear the full story behind "Genetic". Like some rumours have him so pissed that it was left off Dirty that he quit the band for a couple weeks.
I tend to believe above story as, well, that song is better than 95% of that album ("Wish Fulfillment" being as good).
+Jamie Webster My thoughts exactly!
I wouldn't say always, but this one is amazing
Sonic Youth's George Harrison.

A sculpture is just a chunk of rock until the artist chips pieces away and pulls something beautiful from the mess.

When you see the spiral turning through alone
And you feel so heavy that you just can't stop it
When this sea of madness turns you into stone
Picture of your life shoots like a rocket
All the time
Put 'me' in the equation it's alright
I've seen you moving in and out of sight
My friends tell me it's all cut through you (?)
From nowhere - to nowhere
Cut together - cutting through
I'm island-bound, a mote inside my eye
I can't see you breathing as before
I am airless - a vacuum child
I can't stand to reason at your door
In this time
Put 'me' in the equation it's alright
I've seen you moving in and out of sight
My friends tell me it's all cut through you (?)
From nowhere - to nowhere
Come together
I'm down in the daytime out of sight
Comin' in from dreamland I'm on fire
I can see it's all been here before
Dream a dream that lies right at your door
When the seasons circle sideways out of turn
And words don't speak just fall across the carpet
You're just in time to watch the fires burn
It seems a crime but yr. face is bright you love it
All the time...
what about J mascis at 2:21 ?
Потрясающая атмосфера и звук!!! Мелодично, дерзко и экспериментально
I had depression in high school 1992 ( like most other kids) and use to put this on to max the shit out of my depression- it would get so dark it would become more of a natural high...it was a strange ride.
Shit i feel that at 44, in hs i was too busy fighting or skating
Lee Ranaldo's got such a nice, deep, velvety voice...I don't get why Thurston didn't let him sing more often in the past.
ego
Always thought the same
The track composer always sing its own creation in Sonic Youth, just like The Beatles.
thurston has a big ego
Where are you getting that Thurston didn't "let" Lee sing more?
the noise part it what defines sonic youth! crank up that wasted amp, feedback and bug out. its beautiful, if you like it. if you understand it
The best part 0:00-7:37
Lol zing!!!
What about 7:38😢
This song happens to blend melodic soothing vocals and a punk riff progression in a strange marriage, and it works so well. Throw in the noise and it is unbelievable.
Happy birthday to the great Lee Ranaldo, former guitarist of Sonic Youth.
Hes not the former guitarist of sy. It sounds like he left the band. He is the guitarist of sy
an underrated classic
underrated but 300k+ views, man
sarviskuri not enough
sarviskuri but ur right it isn’t underrated
this is not underrated, this song is in their most iconical album.
underrated from sy are "Inhuman", "where the red fern grows", etc
Look up the word " underrated " halfwit
Sonic youth have left a big wedge in musical history as they were excellent.
This really was the best song on the album. I can honestly say I hit the rewind button on my cassette player at least six time when I heard it. Man! This brings back memories!
all the craziness..hustle and bustle of new york city flying through the background of their songs
Ranaldo's singing is insane in this
i love Lee's voice.... I LOVE SONIC YOUTH!
:(
I love Lee's voice and guitar.
My favourite Sonic Youth song. Lyrically intelligent with a cold feel.
This is a mid-night clip from MTV.. its very obscure, creppy and AWESOME!!
I love when things are creppy
lala vasquez like, nuttela and banana?

Спасибо.! - JoysticK.
i dont wanna see ads for maroon five while watching sonic youth.
adblock!!!!!!!!!
Then buy the album
Still fucking mint. I bought this back when it first came out, so I've been listening to it for about 30 years now, and I still absolutely love this track.
My favourite band - by far - for over 30 years!
best band ever
For Sonic Youth there should be a 'love' button to click on!
That´ll always be my song for skateboarding (Someone had Toy Machine´s "Jump Off a Building" & the first 3 mins of that song were in Ed Templeton´s part. Around 1998.).
Always had/loved TM-decks & heard that song in my inner ear while skating!
Everything Lee did with the band has something special.
Probably my favorite song from Goo.
The best song no doubt.
Arcade Gannon absolutely man! 1000% agree.
I prefer Goo over daydream nation.
Thats so true
One of SY's best
There is something so soothing in Lee's voice ❤
sonic youth made some of the most grating music i’ve ever heard, and yet they made it beautiful
I fucking Love Sonic Youth! And always will, The alternative Beatles! They should never be forgotten
I cant believe they dont credit the videos directors. They had some seriously heavy hitters from the art world making their videos. Anyway, one of the best tracks on one of the best SY albums. Rock on, Lee
Agreed. I love the composition of this video; like a transmission from another realm...
Everybody is talking about Lee's voice, and I agree, but J's voice is also super cool (I am speaking about J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr., he is on backvocals, you can hear him very well in the beginning of the third verse at 2:20)
Overall, very good song, love it!
I knew this one has something in common with Little Fury Things! I can't even think of two other songs that I like this much
They're good friends with J, right?
@@RustSQUIDFACE yep, they were responsible for promoting DJ and DJs first big tour was supporting SY
melancolía rabiosa... amo esta canción!
For some reason I woke up today and listened to this song and thought "yeah, I'm going to listen to the entire noise part" and it was nice
Esse álbum deu um nó na minha cabeça, depois dele nunca quis nada que fosse menos do que ele
Sonic noise is really awesome!!
yeah forever and ever
Love that 4-minute ending!
Based on a sylvia plath poem that's pretty sad in retrospect
Still one of my top 5 sonic youth sings forever
Much respect
1 million views now ❤
super grooved cool,totally like laying here looking up in the knight at that mass spiraling like a wagonwheel through space,, as feeling myself absorbed into the cut and grooven in the beautiful deep dark beauty needle goes in, as it spins , catching the light, sending it out and around in my mind far out man,,,
The only music video that has clips from both Koyaanisqatsi AND Faces of Death
I gotta admit that Lee Ranado's voice is so great! Fits perfectly with the song!
I am airless, a vacuum child
thats real shit sad as fuck
One of my all time favorite lyrics
coca
ye one of my all time favorite lyrics as well
Never used to like the second half, but I have grown into it, the older I get the more I appreciate it

That vid got me here to at about the same age hahahaha
They should be at least Sonic Middle-Aged people or Sonic Seniors by now.
Goo is my fave jam. For real
😆
lol why are people who call others seniors on these videos who call anyone seniors
Probably my fave song on Goo.
Feliz cumpleaños al gran Lee Ranaldo, por cierto Mote de lejos uno de los mejores temas del laureado "Goo" (1990).
I like songs from everyone in SY but I feel like Lee’s songs are the most fun. Hey Joni, Eric’s Trip, and Rats are probably my favorites of his
Melancholy of the 90s Seattle encapsulated in this song- it was a part of the mixtape I gave to my unrequited love interest.
In 1990, back before there was Nirvana (for me.) There was this album.
Unfortunately, I was by myself experiencing this sonic soundscape of an album.
Kind of like it would be for a Skinny Puppy album listening experience for me.
This takes me back.
My fav sonic youth song, love it!
I love this song so much. The melody is so beautiful and it's also beautifully noisy
Kim's bass is brilliant in this one, I play gass and we cover this in our band. The only reason why Lee and Thurston get away with their 'thing' is a super tight rhythm section with solid bass
Listening to this with beta and theta waves on another tab.
Transcending.
Best played a 1600kmph on a country road in a sports car. Trust me on it.
1600 kmph is like 1000 mph
you're breaking the sound barrier
thats a crime
@@clydecash2212it's actually SY breaking it
one of the most genius artists in the world
what a song Jesus fucking christ
yes..christ like..great fucking song, Lee is good with it
killer track................brings back memories of being in my bedroom
This is one of my favourite songs.
don't understand why this is so underrated
my favorite lee song
a trip back to the 90s
One of the best songs of SY
Love Lee, thank you for the deepest songs

One of my favorite songs from decades ago.... ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 I can listen to this 10 x in a row.
Favorite Sonic Youth Song.
What a ride
I’m island bound
A mote inside my eye
And I can’t see you breathing as before.
Favorite SY song by far. I love Lee so much.
This is real music!
This is hands down the best Sonic Youth song.
one of my favorites from SY and they have loads!! SY forever
That guitar riff is brutally good
Not the easiest music to like, but those guitars are otherworldly.
Maybe the best sonic youth song
Absolutely brilliant .
Miss you guys
Best track on "Goo" !
you know when it's Lee singing it's gonna be a good one
they way Thurston just makes his guitar JUST WHALE on this song is insane to me
The end of this song is epic, and way more with the last 2 minutes of this video...
This video looks like it was shot with the PXL2000 camera, which was also used for SLACKER (1991) and ANOTHER GIRL ANOTHER PLANET (1992)
oh great we got a fucking detective over here
Today your love, tomorrow the world
my friend tells me that all the time . saying " they don't even use proper tunings "

ive been trying to find this song for about 10 years
Lee has such a nice voice, why didn't the other let him sing on their songs?
+Jack Oster wtf you say hahahahahaha
jealousy? best voice by far
because kim wouldn't be allowed to fill up a good half of the album's runtime blabbering about feminism
@Premium Nostalgia You say that like any SY member was a great live singer.
@@thebasedgodmax1163 Ouch. I've been diving into their catalogue and that's something that is hard to get past.
