remembering a place in the mall back in the eighties where you could lipsync in front of a bluescreen where cheesy images were inserted and you walked away a star with yer very own vhs tape
+dummytree Yep, just watched a video talking about the making of this video. Macy's had that booth. That's freakin' awesome that it only took $19.99 to make this video.
wow i was really sleeping on these guys. kim gordon is a legend-- hasn't received appropriate credit in rock history, in my opinion. forever grateful!!!!!!!!!
@@zxjacko back in the 80s there was a booth at some malls were you could make a music video for 25 usd. the set was a blue screen were any background video could be ''keyed''. SY brought an us army propaganda vhs and their own (cover) song to lip sync. i wonder what palmer thought of it. and the pentagon too. btw - all us goverment created images, both still and moving, are in the public domain, free to use in any way. some companies try to''license'' such footage , beware.
A smart play off the critiques of sexism the original video received at the time in the '80s. Much like Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" in 2013. www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2013/sep/03/music-videos-addicted-misogyny-sex

I really liked the original Robert Palmer composition....but when I heard this it totally blew me away and still does 😊.
The Whitey Album is a masterpiece among masterpieces
hyperbole
Yes
Wharton Tiers tower of confusion made it happen.
This is like the best cover ever made
+Magnolia Salazar Better than Robert Palmer's...
If you like this one, check out Gang Green's "Voices Carry" cover.
I'll say!!
@@GuyTVUSA I love "alcohol." great satire.
her voice is so soothing i'm obsessed
still is

No Duh
+Mark Schroeder This is exactly how this video was made, in a booth, for 19,99 dollars :)

They also made the star power video that way.
I wish I did one!!!!! Lol

I had this album in the 80s and put this song on all my mix tapes! 😊
Sweet!
Love the Black Flag earrings, so cool.
I remember seeing this video on MTV and forgot it about it until now. I wasn’t aware it was Kim Gordon at the time. What a random memory.
Still a regular fave of mine, and still love Kim ❤
Surely this should have at least one million views by now. Brilliant video.
Kim with Black Flag earring.., how cool is that !!!!!
nice, I didn't notice that ! 1:30
I hadn’t noticed
Sonic Youth owe a lot to Black Flag and SST Records - respect...
loved this as a teenager, possibly the best karaoke song ever before karaoke was invented
Karaoke was invented in 1971 and landed in America in 1982
Best Music video EVER! Made for 25 bucks. Priceless.
whats the story behind the video?

The Tiffany hand move at 1:38 is hilarious.
I straight died!!!!!
just read about this in Kim's book. She's a hilarious genius.
Exactly what brought me here!
Yeah, I think the video cost like 15$ to make. Lo fi genius is so sonic youth..
Its a pretty depressing book, all told. I love Kim
Reading it now.

This is hysterical.
You're close...it was shot at Macy's department store in NYC.

I like to think that I'm immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say I can't get enough
Video directed by Sears.
I love the cheek of the fact that she is just singing over karaoke version and that's what they released.
i read about this video in kim's book
word up
20 bucks that were very well spent.

Q massa!!!!!
This takes a cynical stab at the state's love of warfare :D Does it not?
@fmj2379 then you missed the fucking point and Kim Gordon's music is not for you lol
@@fmj2379 christ
She's too cool, and hot 🔥
Came here from Girl In A Band to search out every obscure video Kim ever did :D
Same!
❤️🙌🏽
And THAT is how you make a video for $19.99.
Kim is God
well I will admit I am addicted to love
I like so so so so much a kiss fro nwk to all!
This was done at a mall, right?
lmao. Sonic Youth's stab at New Wave
I love Sonic Youth, and Ciccone Youth was the first album of sonic youth, in honor of the wave "wannabe" created by madonna.
Yes, they also did covers of "Burning Up" and "Into the Groove" for the album.
Manuel Estevez Sonic Youth had been making albums for nearly a decade when this came out. Stop talking bullshit.
Your not immune,oh yes, its better than the original, and that's closer to the truth oh yeah might as well face it its better than the original.
Could this be considered Anti-WarConflict?
Feel free to discuss...
Thank you for your time.
Holy fuck. Those earrings...
e might face it you're addicted to love
in the kiss 1st dan brutallity
you'd like to think you're immune to this stuff
Is sonic youth, no?
Thurston's book brought me here

Obviously was a huge inspiration to Jan Terri. Where's Mike Watt?

At least give some recognition to Robert Palmer
BUSU
Its obviously a cover
This is so bad.... 😂😂😂
Their addiction to supporting abortion always seemed hypocritical when they'd mention supprting politicians who care about Human Life.
To those writing that this is better than Palmer's original: no.
My god , this is dreadful... please tell me this was suppose to be some kind of pisstake 🤷♀️
I totally agree.
It’s not obvious enough?
terrible video
Good one, jackass
I'm assuming Joseph doesn't get it 😂
Yep, that's the spirit
Well, that’s about the worst singing I’ve ever heard. Good god. 😂😂😂
u liked ur own comment
That's one of the charter members of the Cool Kim Club that you're talking about there. Show some bloody respect.
