I remeber being I was 11 or 12 and I went to the washing machine tour. Kim saw me after the show and invited me into their tour bus. She, Thurston and the rest of the band ordered me pizza and had me hang out with them for about an hour or 2. They were so nice! Kim gave me her email and was so blown away at how young I was and really into their music. I was too shy to email her, but it was one of the greatest nights of my life!!
My girlfriend bought me this album in an attempt to lift my spirits when my best friend and bandmate died suddenly of a brain haemorrhage, bless her. This song seemed to encapsulate best how I felt about him, rest in peace brother.
Mark, Sending all the love and healing to you and all who knew your friend. I know what your experiencing, my friend and old drummer passed in 2015, only now I'm starting to truly face it (not that it'll take you that long :) my mum also passed a few months later so i truly experienced loss of my reality... Music, oh beautiful, powerful moosic! I don't have to really say anything to a fellow sound shaper :) Just remember what you had together and eventually you'll be able to listen to the songs, play them again and have tears of happiness that you even have the memories and their love, over the sadness you most probably are still holding. Only another musician can "get" what it's like to have a friend who you also go traveling in different dimensions together with Every time you hold or sit/stand behind your instrument together ∆¥∆ And if one's never played music with another or doesn't play - they know what just listening to music does - it reconnects you to a higher truth, and to our soul. Our individual and of the collective. Wherever you are in our realm brother, it's a Tuesday am (can't say that word anymore, as it's never a good one!) here in australia. It's winter, i live in my campervan with my guitars and art supplies and a wide open heart - which is sending a big hug, much love and peace of heart for you. Now go pick up your instrument and be inspired. Peace, andria You've a cool girl! Say hi from me :p
Look into his eyes and you will see That men are not alone on the diamond sea Sail into the heart of the lonely storm And tell her that you'll love her eternally i have no words for this only tears
This song takes me back to my freshman year in high school. After getting high I was hanging out with my girlfriend late one evening in my room and I remember hearing this song playing in the background on 107.5 The Buzz. Good times, man! Good times!
I heard this song the first time on the local college radio station. I recorded it on cassette tape. The first time hearing it was a memory I still have that's crystal clear. I was 14 just sitting my small bedroom getting ready to go stay the night with my friend across town and this came on, the long version and I sat and listened to the entire thing.
Holy father in heaven, PALEEESE bring Sonic Youth back to us!!? This band is -timeless! They all have their own things going, which I respect. However, this band and the ethereal paradigm shifting music they channeled in to my soul has never and will never been bested! When a group of artist can change your state of consciousness, without the need of narcotics, it is something incredibly special and important. There has never been another bands like Sonic Youth and I honestly don’t think there ever will be again! Thank you Kim, Thurston, Steve and Lee!! Thank you for the mind blowing memories and for opening my mind and soul to your other worldly and incredibly beautiful music and art! ❤
I'm getting this Bud Light ad every few songs on this playlist and it's got this super cheesy club techno beat which is just SO JARRING after a few great Sonic Youth songs in a row. They seriously have to change that ad, my brain is melting.
So glad you stumbled across this amazing track. ...I remember being 14 and hearing it for the first time. It has been a favorite since. ...it wasn't played on the main radio station in Houston, but they had a weekly show Sunday nights at 10 where they played "indie" stuff, hipster music. I would record the songs i liked onto my Tape Recorder, and would let my friends listen to it. It was a school night so mostly everybody I knew were in bed. Thank God I wasn't. ..I just turned 40 a few wks ago. You kids rock on. Music makes it a beautiful life❤️🤘
Same here, yet I’ve been listening to Sonic Youth since the late 90s. I noticed this single on RateYourMusic and that it was their second-most rated single after Teen Age Riot so I decided to check it out. Wish I’d listened to more SY than just their albums from the 80s and early 90s!
ya but Thurston gave me a nice tip and was understanding. I didn't have the never to tell him my band was on a compilation with his side project sons of lee marvin.carlsmeric
Who hasn't screwed up Sonic Youth's breakfast order at one point on another. One time My Bloody Valentine asked me for hashbrowns and, silly ol' me, I stabbed Kevin Shields in the neck with a spork! Ah, they were nice about it.
Saw them play in 1995 San Jose Almost Acoustic Christmas, they ended with this song, the stage turned around as if they were done! They continued ripping on for another 20 minutes while the impatient young crowd booed, so funny, they are classic.
Siempre será mi canción favorita de Sonic Youth... Siempre me llevará a la nostalgia de mi adolescencia... Dónde pasé tantos cambios ... Dónde me sentía pequeñísima en ese mar de diamantes... Aún me siento pequeña, pero más tranquila (': 💖
This song reminds me the love of my life.. she used to sing this song all the time. It was 13 years ago.. listen to this right know at 24… i cant even explain. I love her so much it hurts. “You never never know how close you came” Love you, L
Time takes its crazy toll And how does your mirror grow? You better watch yourself when you jump into it 'Cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul I wonder how it came to be my friend That someone just like you has come again You'll never, never know how close you came Until you fall in love with the diamond rain Throw all his trash away Look out, he's here to stay Your mirror's gonna crack when he breaks into it And you'll never, never be the same Look into his eyes and you can see Why all the little kids are dressed in dreams I wonder how he's gonna make it back When he sees that you just know it's make belief Blood crystallized as sand And now I hope you'll understand You reflected into his looking glass soul And now the mirror is your only friend Look into his eyes and you will see That men are not alone on the diamond sea Sail into the heart of the lonely storm And tell her that you'll love her eternally Time takes its crazy toll Mirror fallin' off the wall You better look out for the looking glass girl 'Cause she's gonna take you for a fall Look into his eyes and you shall see Why everything is quiet and nothing's free I wonder how he's gonna make her smile When love is running wild on the diamond sea
i saw them in Manila, together with Foo fighters and Beastie boys, and when they performed the power was cut many times, probably because of their tower full of guitar effects - good times :)
Just started trying out this band. Schizophrenia and expressway to your skull were good, but none of them packed quite as much as this song. This is what i was looking for
You should check out bands like My Bloody Valentines, Cranes, Cocteau Twins & Slowdive. Most of their songs are as epic as The Diamond Sea with a lot more atmosphere, reverb & feedback.
Janez bekš Check out the 19 minutes version in the actual album or even try the 25 minute alternate version one from the destroyed room, you will be even more mesmerised.
I personally prefer the 19-minute version (even better, the 25-minute one from The Destroyed Room). The solo is so much longer and better. Still, a fantastic song.
This video was done by 5 different directors (including Spike Jonze), hence the many variations of it. Would love to know who the other 4 directors were!
1994. Poland. Poznan City. I'm looking for any Sonic Youth album. And I found small something like store? And they sell tapes! And there is "Washing Machine", Sonic Youth. I'm 19 years old. 30 years ago. Before that I only knew one album ("Experimental...") and few songs...

Ha colaborado en numerosos proyectos musicales y ha grabado más de una decena de discos solistas, además es el fundador de la compañía discográfica Ecstatic Peace!.
…….. It is as beautiful as the retractability of the talons of rapacious birds or as the uncertainty of muscular movements in wounds of the soft tissues of the posterior cervical region.
This is one of those songs that you can just turn out the lights, lay down and close your eyes and just let your mind drift away.
Thank Goodness 💕
Especially the long album version
I've never listened to the Sonic Youth in my life, just sumbled upon this, but my mind drifted away just as you said!
@@ozanyapisan5965 So many great songs for you discover!
@@sugmintub Looking forward to it and am very, very open to recommendations.

I could see how that would be a memory to cherish, one of those serendipitous moments in life, it's a great story.
This sounds like dinosaur Jr lol I guess they were copying sonic youth
@@LeahDyson-kq4bdthey influenced each other mate. they all are friends to this day

@@andysings What a lovely reply, thank you so very much. What kind of music do you do?🤔
🤙
This video deserves a million views.
more than a million
well on the way
I'm working on it

This song is like an amazing journey of emotions inside your head
Purest Grunge
Look into his eyes and you will see
That men are not alone on the diamond sea
Sail into the heart of the lonely storm
And tell her that you'll love her eternally
i have no words for this only tears

I've been listening to Sonic Youth since I was a real little girl. Like around 4. I've loved them ever since!!
How old are you know ?
Pretty early. Are you a genius?🤔
It's 2023 and this is still my #1 favorite song
This song takes me back to my freshman year in high school. After getting high I was hanging out with my girlfriend late one evening in my room and I remember hearing this song playing in the background on 107.5 The Buzz. Good times, man! Good times!

Kim played an English festival, glastonbury , 2 weeks ago
I had this album a while back. Man I love this song. Favourite Sonic Youth song.
God you don't know how hard I fell in love with listening to the 18 minute version of this on my discman back when it was released
one of the most beautiful song i ever heard in my life
Saw SY four times in Melbourne & I always felt like a little kid I was so excited lining up at the venues clutching my ticket.
I'm getting this Bud Light ad every few songs on this playlist and it's got this super cheesy club techno beat which is just SO JARRING after a few great Sonic Youth songs in a row. They seriously have to change that ad, my brain is melting.

Wow ! How have I not discovered this song up til now? Beautiful
Yeah, I just discovered it, too. Beautiful song and lyrics!

In case you haven't yet (a year later) I can't recommend diving more into their discography

i remember serving the whole band breakfast and i screwed up their order.

Liam Cooper lol
jeez u shoulda told him!
it wasnt a dream. It really happened.

No way I’m from San Jose too haha
I was there.
They could play forever

My favorite Sonic Youth song
Do you mean the 20 minute version?
weed and sonic youth = perfect moment
Facts 😎
E's speed ,lsd, it all fits now coke in my old age
@@markroughton9854 damn
I was in 8th grade when this song came out. I haven't heard it in years. Brings back memories.
I love the opening guitar effect
I'm Sainte muertto. Hello tomorrow
Bits of dust mean smiles to pain
Yo I do too
lee used a ludwig phase II for the effect
OMGGGGGGGGG i used to play this song endlessly.
I really enjoy this piece of art
Amazing jam, one of hundreds of great SY songs.
This song reminds me the love of my life.. she used to sing this song all the time. It was 13 years ago.. listen to this right know at 24… i cant even explain. I love her so much it hurts. “You never never know how close you came”
Love you, L
Time takes its crazy toll
And how does your mirror grow?
You better watch yourself when you jump into it
'Cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul
I wonder how it came to be my friend
That someone just like you has come again
You'll never, never know how close you came
Until you fall in love with the diamond rain
Throw all his trash away
Look out, he's here to stay
Your mirror's gonna crack when he breaks into it
And you'll never, never be the same
Look into his eyes and you can see
Why all the little kids are dressed in dreams
I wonder how he's gonna make it back
When he sees that you just know it's make belief
Blood crystallized as sand
And now I hope you'll understand
You reflected into his looking glass soul
And now the mirror is your only friend
Look into his eyes and you will see
That men are not alone on the diamond sea
Sail into the heart of the lonely storm
And tell her that you'll love her eternally
Time takes its crazy toll
Mirror fallin' off the wall
You better look out for the looking glass girl
'Cause she's gonna take you for a fall
Look into his eyes and you shall see
Why everything is quiet and nothing's free
I wonder how he's gonna make her smile
When love is running wild on the diamond sea
*to
El modelo de banda perfecta.
Yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo
Time takes its crazy toll
lmao bro hahaha
SY were so hood.
The almighty power of the Maestro Phase II guitar synth and Thruston Moore
It was the Ludwig Phase ii synth, everyone knows that poser@@thepostapocalyptictrio4762
como pode uma musica tão linda? eu amo sonic youth
The song won't get out of my head
I tend to have this obsession with playing my favorite songs, three times. I played this six times, heheh.
I love singing along to this, such a soothing song. It's great.
i saw them in Manila, together with Foo fighters and Beastie boys, and when they performed the power was cut many times, probably because of their tower full of guitar effects - good times :)
Lucky man. When was that?
@@psychedelicwolf9697 www.sonicyouth.com/mustang/cc/012096.html
Brownouts ftw.
Lucky, i was still in my dads balls when they did that concert
This song is one of the best of my life, thank you for all Sonic Youth.
That's gorgeous.
GOOD OLD DAYS..SONIC YOUTH..
Lembra adolescência .......muito bom esse som ......
the song who hook me up to Sonic youth thanks brother
Just started trying out this band. Schizophrenia and expressway to your skull were good, but none of them packed quite as much as this song.
This is what i was looking for
+Janez bekš play rather ripped (album) and not a track on it needs to be skipped
You should check out bands like My Bloody Valentines, Cranes, Cocteau Twins & Slowdive. Most of their songs are as epic as The Diamond Sea with a lot more atmosphere, reverb & feedback.
Janez bekš Check out the 19 minutes version in the actual album or even try the 25 minute alternate version one from the destroyed room, you will be even more mesmerised.
Try Eric ‘s trip!
I saw them at Bogarts in Cincinnatti back in 92.......they kicked ass then and took no names......left us deaf as hell too
Me too. I saw them perform it at Lollapalooza and I was hooked!
Time takes its crazy toll...
that phaser at the start is so good
Yeah it is
Great song, amazing sonic youth!!
This song makes me feel really really good ...
Thank Youth!
I wil never forget you
amooooooo esta rola amoooooooo a sonic youth..!!!
wonderful, wonderful, wonderful
90's love this songs
i named my first born child after this song. ❤
Beautiful song :)
kind of like lullabye and roller coaster all in one, very sweet, nice song too
I remember an intense moment with this song. ❤
What was it?
This song is better than drugs!♡
And great with ha ha!
I personally prefer the 19-minute version (even better, the 25-minute one from The Destroyed Room). The solo is so much longer and better.
Still, a fantastic song.
parabens
KazPranks yo creo que sos un verga
I find it very difficult to believe anything of the length is better. My attention span over the past 10 years
You are a true Sonic Youth fan
Sure, but they're not gonna release that as a single.
Sonic youth saved my life
Same
SAME... all caps
Same guys
Maravilha! Bons tempos...
Time ⌚ is crazy so.. 👍🙏😎
man. what the???
yeah, i.love.this song so much!!! ~♡☆♡☆♡~
I love this song so much I choose to listen to the even longer version off the b-sides album.
This video was done by 5 different directors (including Spike Jonze), hence the many variations of it. Would love to know who the other 4 directors were!
I need all of you to remember: I want this song played at my funeral!
Such great memories to this soundtrack new Zealand 99
Good times... and Max TV :)
Sheer brilliance
mi rola para empezar a ser feliz un buen sabado
Best song ever
If you ever fall in love, do not dedicate this song I repeat do not do it! keep it for yourself, self-love.

reminds of being really drunk and stoned in my teenage years, passing out in the back of buses in hong kong
Lol deep tho.
In the way of "I love golden blue", the slow songs of Kim & Thurston are the best quiet rock music ever - may be with Jeff buckley...
Listen to any song over and over it becomes good
Drive you insane you mean
Shit you're right
@@gaffaw that doesn't happen very often.
the videography is so good
i really do think this is one of the greatest songs of all time. sucks i’ll likely never get to see sonic youth live, they broke up when i was only 7
When I see a post/tweet asking what my favorite song is, I can’t think of anything else to comment with but this video.
Joya de canciòn,
This song is my religion.
This has always been my fave song for life 😍
This song makes me feel happy
I hope it does to others aswell :)
It does :)
Good song. Love my fishing so there for the sea is my place. This songs floaty and makes ones mind drift:)
Fell in love !
BEAUTIFUL SONG
this and dirty boots sums up the 1990s
Спасибо, sonic youth
Thank You Noman ,for sendin m here :)
con esta te extraño tanto hermano
One of the most rubbish things about my life is that I will never see Pantera and probably not Sonic Youth play live.
s695579 Saw them five times. A great live band.
s695579 Saw them at Lollapalooza in 95. The sad thing is that I didn't really get into them until a few years later and never got to see them again.
s695579 tampoco es la gran cosa
Saw them both on the same bill along with Ministry in 1992.
Pantera sucks

LA chanson de Sonic Youth, incontestablement.
고등학교때 처음들었던 곡 몽환적이고 늘어지는 멜로디 중간에 막치는듯한 기타
THANK YOUTH !!!!
:))
Ganz grosses Kino !
…….. It is as beautiful as the retractability of the talons of rapacious birds or as the uncertainty of muscular movements in wounds of the soft tissues of the posterior cervical region.
I remember nothing... But I had this CD when I was trying to relax with a joint in high school.
My morning song
for me, is the 3am song
its just beautiful!
Eu viajo nesse som...
Nice!!!!!
