Official Music Video for Sunday performed by Sonic Youth. Follow Sonic Youth: Instagram: / sonicyouth_official Facebook: / sonicyouth Twitter: / thesonicyouth #SonicYouth #Sunday
- Fun fact: This music video was directed by Harmony Korine, the director of: Gummo, Julien Donkey-Boy, Spring Breakers etc.. just learned this today and wanted to share
It was a cool gesture for Sonic Youth to give Macauley back a little bit of power by putting him in this video when he was at his “least popular", after being dumped and ripped apart by the Hollywood system; betrayed by his own parents looting his earnings; and unceremoniously becoming tabloid fodder for years.
I am surprised he didn't take his life with the amount of stress he was dealing with. He developed a drug problem,. I suppose it happens when there is nothing you can do to solve your issues. I think people turn to drugs and parties when things are out of your hands.
@@atilla4372 it's not like they were in a damn romantic relationship or something. It was just for the sake of looking cool, don't see why it's problematic
Sunday comes alone again A perfect day for a quiet friend And you - you will set it free I see new morning round your face Everybody says its another phase And now - now its come to me See the magic in your eyes I see it come as no surprise And you - you turn your eyes away Yeah you - you turn it all away I guess its true its never too late Still I don't know what to do today Oh why - can't I set you free Will you - do the same for me Sunday comes and Sunday goes Sunday always seems to move so slow To me - here she comes again A perfect ending to a perfect day A perfect ending what can I say To you - lonely Sunday friend With you - Sunday never ends
this was the song that brought me to being a fan of sonic youth, i ignored this song so many times in my recommendations, until i got very high and seen it once again. listened to it, fell in love, now i have 6 band shirts and 4 posters of sonic youth.
A lot of people don't understand what was going on at the time. The world was already out-casting child star McCauley...who had additionally just got married at 18..which for some reason the tabloids, etc. were really harsh on him for. The girl (Rachel Miner) in the video was his "new" wife. Sonic Youth has always tried to turn culture on it's head and expose it for it's vapid cruelness.
I had some friends back in 2001-03 who worked with McCauley in a theater group. I had never met anyone famous before and at the time I thought it was so cool they got to know this world wide star. But this was also during all of the chaos and from the way they talked about it the fame was such poison to McCauley. All of these stories about him, his family, and his relationship were in the tabloids and here was this kid who was trying to push through it all and still stay sane. Watching this reminds me of how young he was at that time.
@@mtr801 ow dude...I just contributed this also, in fact this track didnt give me any Blurr 'vibes' whatsoever, only my Helium alarm went off...nice to acknowledge there are more 'connaiseurs of noise' out there....
Quite simply, one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. The haunting guitar in the background is just right for the feel of this song, and it's perfect Sunday morning comedown music.
Sunday comes alone again A perfect day for a quiet friend And you, you will set it free I see new morning around your face Everybody says its another phase And now, now its come to me See the magic in your eyes I see it come as no surprise And you, you turn your eyes away Yeah you, you turn it all away I guess its true its never too late Still I don't know what to do today Oh why can't I set you free? Will you do the same for me? Sunday comes and…
What do you think the song lyrics mean? Maybe the phases of falling in love, unrequited infatuation perhaps... trying to shake an obsession with someone from their mind... ruminating..
@@antivist664 I think it was intended to be ambiguous so you could interpret it however you want; it's whatever it means to you. I've heard people suggest the "falling in love" part, but have also seen people say it's about drug use (you can fall in love with a drug/ how the drug makes you feel). To me, it's more a "coming of age" song. The "phase" being youthful love and trying to fill time on the weekends. Also, by the end of the song, it's implied whatever the feeling that was there is fleeting, just like youth does.
That awkward moment when I just sat there, listening to this panicky fast paced music, reading comments, casually thinking about the strange distorted style, for a full minute, before noticing that I had the video playing at double speed.

I can't understand, why are the people discussing if the girl he kissed was hot or not??! that's so irrelevant just watch the fucking video this fucking wonderful video of this beautiful song omg
i remember i watched this at mtv and my mother come into my room at 3:07 i didnt notice and she saw it until 3:46 and she said what the hell are you looking at?!
(In 2010) At 2:25 I entered MTV Rock's channel on TV and never heard it before. Thought it was interesting until 2:35 the guitar got me blown away. On the edge of the sofa I finished listening and ran to my PC to check out this band. Best day of my life.
You discovered Sonic Youth 9 years ago?? Lucky bastard! You should only now just about be through all their albums! I got introduced to them when I was 10 back in 93', and even then were way over a decade old.
this is precious to 90's kids. much love kim. you continue to Seikilos Epitaph, Epitaph,the bastion of art and influence and correctly so. fucking cool thing

Sunday comes alone again
A perfect day for a quiet friend
And you - you will set it free
I see new morning round your face
Everybody says its another phase
And now - now its come to me
See the magic in your eyes
I see it come as no surprise
And you - you turn your eyes away
Yeah you - you turn it all away
I guess its true its never too late
Still I don't know what to do today
Oh why - can't I set you free
Will you - do the same for me
Sunday comes and Sunday goes
Sunday always seems to move so slow
To me - here she comes again
A perfect ending to a perfect day
A perfect ending what can I say
To you - lonely Sunday friend
With you - Sunday never ends

Maculay looks like he was high as a cloud on here
+Mer Feraine Opiates definitely.
+Mer Feraine He always looks high since he grew up.
Well he did get busted with Xanax and herb back in the day.
+Mer Feraine Video was by Harmony Korine in the height of his drug days, of course Culkin was getting high with him

i havent sing for decades.
and today i sang along to this.
tomorrow i shall try to dance again.
to this.
The guitar rhythm in this really reminds me of Coffee and TV by Blur
I thought exactly the same thing
now i see where Blur got their inspiration lol
JUST... YEAH
And Sunday was directly influenced by a Helium song called Skeleton - Apparently one of Thurston's favorite bands…
@@mtr801 ow dude...I just contributed this also, in fact this track didnt give me any Blurr 'vibes' whatsoever, only my Helium alarm went off...nice to acknowledge there are more 'connaiseurs of noise' out there....
People from 2009 be like “wow omg it’s in 480p😎”
they'd be like ah shit I need that camcorder.
technology jokes are always the funniest jokes
youre hilarious
Eh?
HD DVD came out 2005, and the Japanese had 1080 HD television way before that.
480p was seen as amazing on RUclips back in 2005-2010 lol
