Biography

Punk/hardcore trio who were formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, in January 1979. Hüsker Dü (which means "Do you remember" in Danish and Norwegian, but is actually spelt without diaereses) mixed pop and punk music and consisted of guitarist/vocalist Bob Mould, bassist Greg Norton and drummer/vocalist Grant Hart. They started out as a punk band before gravitating toward hardcore, then expanding into more melodic songs. After releasing seven albums, Hüsker Dü split in January 1988 due to the growing tensions between Mould and Hart (the two main songwriters in the band), Hart's alcohol and drug problems, and the suicide of the band's manager, David Savoy Jr. Mould went on to form [a=Sugar (5)], whilst Hart formed [a=Nova Mob] with both of them disbanding their respective groups in the mid-'90s and going on to only produce for their solo projects. Norton stepped away the music business for a number of years to become a restaurant owner but returned to performing again in the 2000s. Grant Hart died of cancer on September 14th 2017.

LYRICS

You ask how far the farthest star is To go by bus or to go by car is Way too far, you couldn't say You won't get there anyway He says it takes a private plane But you could never get back to your feet again Unless you break the ball and chain He says "Now, it's a private plane" With all these places in your mind There's no reason you have to find Your private plane Don't play that game
