Today I rode my bike around the neighborhood at 6 am, listening to an entire playlist by this band and I felt good for the first time in years. Thank you for bringing me joy, even if it's just a little bit.
To me, this is what music is about. Not overly skillful, nothing too ridiculously passionate, just something which strikes a deep emotion in oneself which makes something so amazing.
I'm actually 19, and you can be any age to have nostalgia. This song came out in 2006, and even if I had never heard this song before, this song captures that feeling of nostalgia more than any song I've ever heard
This is such a great album, especially for a band late in their career. Jams Run Free also has a simple riff yet so emotional. It's more about the texture around the riff, which then becomes the cherry on top.
The best era of American rock. Sonic youth, pavement, dinosaur jr, pixies. man, wish i was alive in my hayday to make it some of those shows in the early years
I was alive and made it in the UK, but yes it was your heyday. Today you're giving us Taylor Swift - I mean good luck to her, she seems a nice person, but what happened over there musicwise? For some reason I always want to see her doing a Slits cover version, but I digress...
@@pici5533 It was absolutely an amazing time. I was in the thick of it. Saw Sonic Youth on the Dirty tour, it was awesome. The era of 1987-1994 was off the hook.
I love that i get to play all this for my little girl. She is now 15 and loves the deftones. I listen to everything, and tho Sonic Youth did not make it completely mainstream I think it's important to teach your kids about art and music. There is nothing wrong with being eclectic and listening to a wide range of things. She now loves tribe called quest , wutang , and her favorite band is fly leaf. Lol
sure! I try to do the same with my daughter. let's be clear, I do not want to force her to make her listen to the music I like, but I would like to be able to give her a little wider panorama than what they make her listen to at school.
Love how one guitar is panned to the left and one to the right, and each plays it's own lines which are different but interweaving. I love the guitar on the left... how it's so sparce and a little sloppy, almost on purpose to give the song it's moody sound and feel. Great song.
Sonic Youth did that a lot during production, Thurston Moore on one side and Lee Reynoldo on the other, because both were incredible and doing so allowed the band to showcase each talent individually whilst allowing both individual (i.e. NOT IDENTICAL) lines to play off/ merge with each other, which was a big, if not always obvious, part of the genius behind Sonic Youth's sound.
If you like interweaving guitars (not so much in mix but style of play) check out Television's Marquee Moon with Verlaine and Lloyd switching between lead and rhythm (but less traditional in their case). They set the ground work for many bands that followed.
Creative lyrics that strike you and a melody with so sensitive and fragile guitar riffs always put tears into my eyes and are the reasons why I consider this song as one of the greatest masterpiece of music history. Even I'm not a number one fan of Sonic Youth, I always come back here, year after year. And I will do it as long as I live.
I'm a guitar player since age 11 and sonic youth is at the top of my admired guitar playing...the tuning, cadence, chord progressions everything one of the hardest bands to cover/ duplicate. Love me sonic youth forever 🤘
stumbled onto Kim Gordon and went through her music history. This is the first time hearing Sonic Youth's songs for me, and it has been a ride. I'm kicking myself I've never heard these guys before, but absolutely enjoying the journey of discovering.
holy crap... watch this at 2am in full screen in a darkened room with no other lights. suddendly everything in this music video starts making sense. i'm legit mindblown, this is one of the best music videos ever for such a beatiful song
its imposible to listen to this song 1000 times a day. theres not enough hours in a day to do that. are you a liar of some sort? i know this is posted 10 years ago but pls explain to me. please be patient im authistic
This is the type of music that makes you feel young forever - the song is a classic and it will inspire generations throughout time to experience immortality. Such is the effect of a classic ❤
One of the few bands I've seen live more than 10 times. One of the best bands, and some of the best live shows, ever, period. They taught me dissonance is beautiful. SY were life changing for me.
Mis respetos para esta bandota,que siguió resurgiendo de aquel 2006,cuando la onda alternativa y el hardcore se iban diluyendo,hasta quedar en segundo plano,para dar paso a lo que escuchamos ahora,las ondas indie.Siempre Doble Nueve estará allí para hacernos más feliz la vida,con sus innovaciones musicales,y mezclas que pocos conocen.
Amo esta canción Me recuerda mis últimos días en la universidad, con mis amigos Enfrentando la incertidumbre y las pequeñas desdichas de convertirse en un adulto
My brother introduced me to this song when I was 8. It all changed from there. One of the greatest songs of all time. One of the best riffs ever written.

This is filmed, exactly how I would have been looking at things while they were playing this song (if I was there live in the room). This song is great and the video adds to its overall quality.
When I was 16, I saw their live in Tokyo in 1998. I always remember that it was crowded in front of the venue that was not large, jumped all the time, closed my eyes in the guitar noise of the explosion, and flew to a different world.
This band fills the empty feeling in my life ! More art and free thinking 💭 It just makes me feel right👻 Thanks y’all, remember to be you. because you matter always grow from good energy and move forward.
Ive always loved this song. I first heard it in Mexico. I was expecting a quirky music video to go with this brilliant tune but... wow. They just didnt care. Love SY.
I love this song. So twisted, and subtle. I miss these dark years, although they have never left. Thank u Sonic youth, big part of my life. Carry on......
Old fender Jazzmasters and Jaguars have incredible tones no matter how they're set, the Jaguar being the ABSOLUTE most versatile guitar ever created, and both Thurston Moore and Lee Reynaldo are talented beyond comparison in respect to coaxing each and every possible tone each guitar is capable of producing at exactly the time each variation is needed. If you're looking to emulate the guitar tone Sonic Youth pulls from their guitars in would, without reservation, recommend a Fender Jaguar that has been broken in for at least a decade. The tone, electrified or not, is unparalleled.
@@universal_hyssoap :p I fell in love with SY in about 1990, when I first heard them on a pirate radio station where I lived (yeah, I'm THAT old, pirate stations still existed when I was a kid lol). They're the original reason I became passionate about music in general and guitar in particular, I've spent decades trying to figure out how all my favorite guitarists produce the tones they do '\_("/)_/' lol
In the early 80s when I got back from my stint in the Navy I came home, to the west coast, i came home in 79,to Seattle, I have seen Sonic Youth, early/to the mid '80s, and I went partying /welding, down into the southwest, L.A.Tuscon, Phoenix, the Punk bands I would see, new wave, some called the fusion styles, grunge, these cats and Kim, were top notch in my book. innovative.
I don't know guys what you talkin' bout. This video is perfect for that song. It shows all the details. Of burning flame and being a flame and being touched by flames.
... recuerdo cuando circulaba en doble nueve la radio rock en lima .me acompañaba cuando me amanecía haciendo mis tareas de la secundaria. Tiempos q no volverán pero q atesoro 💓
WOW!! LOVE IT!!! This wonderful song as a sort of Beatles-like vibe that truly connects with us over-the-hill Boomers, lol. Like the drummer: good rhythms!! Also love the simplicity of the whole affair: uncluttered yet sophisticated.
Sonic Youth los extraño mucho...gracias por aparecer en mi vida a los 13 años...hoy tengo 28 años y sigo pensando que su música es mágica❤ saludos desde Buenos Aires,Argentina
Brilliant without trying , leaving you with a trace of memory of the good things of your past and a little hope , never forget how good sonic youth is , there are no more bands likes this we had a good run
The video shows how in our existence the details don't matter as long as u can move your mind to everything except the details you'll be able to move on, this video exactly tells u to not Care about good video's or a perfect life nothing is gonna be perfect so grow up. this is life.
The guitar riff on this is magic.
truly
It really has the sound of a pavement guitar riff at the beginning. Love it btw!

Muito da hora!
Yes sr!
Today I rode my bike around the neighborhood at 6 am, listening to an entire playlist by this band and I felt good for the first time in years. Thank you for bringing me joy, even if it's just a little bit.
2023 will be there year for you.
You’ve got this!
I totally know the feeling. Sometimes it's too much for a soul to contain.
Cool story bro
love you man. hope youre doing well
One of the best songs ever created.
U probabily don't heard many songs
Pedro Z I have heard every single song in the planet.
You should like Dinosaur JR too.
I do myself .
this video is kinda disturbing lmao
the schmatz
If you pay close attention to the music video, you can actually see the band performing the song.
LOOK AT IT CLOSELY
No ducking way

@@cirocjones9886 My gay what?
@Wiltshire Byways love this comment. f'ing hilarious.
When i was young, I believed that the guy that singed this song was Sonic The Hedgehog
I don't remember why
maybe the name of the band?
@@gui_sem_lherme Yes, it was because of that
Wait...you mean he's not?
Lol that’s sounds like something I’d think about
gotta go fast
To me, this is what music is about. Not overly skillful, nothing too ridiculously passionate, just something which strikes a deep emotion in oneself which makes something so amazing.
Getting laid will help that :D
Sonic youth is very skillful though 😄
I rather enjoy the music and arrangements but dislike the vocals and lyrics.
@@thomxAristy I think the vocals and lyrics are great. They fit perfectly with what the song and style of music is.
Don't listen to these rejects of life. You're listening to this band for the right reasons brother
This song is one of the best things created in human history

Keep trying.
This song truly captures the raw essence of nostalgia
Ross McDermott
Or just burning for love..creep!
How can you be nostalgic you're like 14?
I'm actually 19, and you can be any age to have nostalgia. This song came out in 2006, and even if I had never heard this song before, this song captures that feeling of nostalgia more than any song I've ever heard
+Ross McDermott chill I was joking.
This is Sonic Youth doing their thing, 20 years after they started making music. We're lucky to hear this genius!
Hell, this is closer to 30 years of them doing their thing here!
Such a simple but great riff I love it.
Amelia Carehart a knife is simple but when you need to stab something it kicks ass
The bitchy part is the tuning
This is such a great album, especially for a band late in their career. Jams Run Free also has a simple riff yet so emotional. It's more about the texture around the riff, which then becomes the cherry on top.
this isnot simple at all.
@@expertonmusic its pretty simple lool, still great nonetheless
The best era of American rock. Sonic youth, pavement, dinosaur jr, pixies. man, wish i was alive in my hayday to make it some of those shows in the early years
And violent femmes 🤘
This songs like an epitaph for that whole moment in time
Probably not the best, but certainly one of the best ones.
And now rock is dead
I was alive and made it in the UK, but yes it was your heyday. Today you're giving us Taylor Swift - I mean good luck to her, she seems a nice person, but what happened over there musicwise? For some reason I always want to see her doing a Slits cover version, but I digress...

Sonic Youth were huge mate, they were in an episode of the Simpsons.
Way to go❤️❤️❤️
Deftones*
I am 16 and i love sonic youth , deftones and a lot of rap
Love how one guitar is panned to the left and one to the right, and each plays it's own lines which are different but interweaving. I love the guitar on the left... how it's so sparce and a little sloppy, almost on purpose to give the song it's moody sound and feel. Great song.
The same way The Ramones recorded bass on the left and guitars on the right.
Sonic Youth did that a lot during production, Thurston Moore on one side and Lee Reynoldo on the other, because both were incredible and doing so allowed the band to showcase each talent individually whilst allowing both individual (i.e. NOT IDENTICAL) lines to play off/ merge with each other, which was a big, if not always obvious, part of the genius behind Sonic Youth's sound.
Love how Thurston mostly sings with his eyes closed
They usually weren’t in the same tunings either. They both used wild tunings(I know everyone knows that) Lee used a lot of paired string tunings.
If you like interweaving guitars (not so much in mix but style of play) check out Television's Marquee Moon with Verlaine and Lloyd switching between lead and rhythm (but less traditional in their case). They set the ground work for many bands that followed.
Creative lyrics that strike you and a melody with so sensitive and fragile guitar riffs always put tears into my eyes and are the reasons why I consider this song as one of the greatest masterpiece of music history.
Even I'm not a number one fan of Sonic Youth, I always come back here, year after year. And I will do it as long as I live.

sonic youth: we want a modern cool video, lets hire a producer

Are you on acid
blows my mind that this song came out in 2006, sounds straight out the 90s
it didnt ? it is from the 90's
+lakota hatcher u might want to look into it.. 2006.
You should listen to Thurston's latest work as Chelsea Light Moving and TMB, pretty much the same good old Sonic sounds ;)
probably because sonic youth are late 80s / 90s band?
surprisingly you're right
sonic youth are one of the few bands I listened to as a kid that I'm not ashamed of today.
Sounds like the beautiful chaos that was my teenage years. One of my all time favorite bands. Lots of talent. Cheers!!
I love when I find music for the 1st time. It’s a magical feeling ❤
If you like this vibe, look into the Chapel Hill, North Carolina 90s indie scene. You'll find a gold mine of amazing music. :)
i love this song, i can hear it a thousand times in a day without boring me
its imposible to listen to this song 1000 times a day. theres not enough hours in a day to do that. are you a liar of some sort? i know this is posted 10 years ago but pls explain to me. please be patient im authistic

This song just catches the pure rawness of nostalgia. What a beautiful piece of art
This is the type of music that makes you feel young forever - the song is a classic and it will inspire generations throughout time to experience immortality. Such is the effect of a classic ❤
This is the sound of a hopeful person who’s has suffered

One of Sonic Youth's best jam songs. So wonderful!!!
this is not a Jam song

What a beautiful guitar sound.
To this day still the only song of theirs i actually know. Such a great track. I'll get around to more...eventually.
I suggest you to listen to Sunday, one of their best tracks and still pretty accessible
there’s something so poetic in the way they write, i admire it sm😫
I absolutely love the crazy guitar tuning in this jam, simply fantastic
There are songs that remind you of the joy of discovering new music, but this song feels like discovering the joy of discovering new music
Ive always loved this song. I first heard it in Mexico. I was expecting a quirky music video to go with this brilliant tune but... wow. They just didnt care. Love SY.
This sound is indescribable . ...beyond my imagination ....when the second guitar kicks in....I've been in love ever since . I love you Sonic Youth .

Old fender Jazzmasters and Jaguars have incredible tones no matter how they're set, the Jaguar being the ABSOLUTE most versatile guitar ever created, and both Thurston Moore and Lee Reynaldo are talented beyond comparison in respect to coaxing each and every possible tone each guitar is capable of producing at exactly the time each variation is needed. If you're looking to emulate the guitar tone Sonic Youth pulls from their guitars in would, without reservation, recommend a Fender Jaguar that has been broken in for at least a decade.

Heya you should check out The Doublejumps if you like Sonic Youth. its a band from my home country (new zealand). worth checking out
Sonic Youth is the icon of UK punk scene and no wave scene awesome& splendid
