Biography

Sonic Youth, which initially comprised guitarist / vocalists Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo, guitarist / bassist / vocalist Kim Gordon and drummer Richard Edson, were formed in New York City in 1981. A product of the No-Wave music scene of the late 1970s, the group had their roots in abrasive, experimental music, with Moore and Ranaldo having previously worked with the experimental composer [a=Glenn Branca]. The band were joined in 1985 by drummer Steve Shelley, and recorded 15 albums together, as well as many side and solo projects. Their work has been consistently challenging and innovative, and they are widely regarded as one of the most intriguing and influential bands of their time. This view has been added to by the strength of their record "Sonic Nurse", which also featured the talents of Jim O'Rourke. O'Rourke left the band in 2005. In 2006, Mark Ibold joined the group. In September 2011, Sonic Youth went on "indefinite hiatus" following the separation of Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore (the couple had been married since 1984). First group studio was [l265864] in New York City, after that [l328958] located in Hoboken, New Jersey.

LYRICS

[Kim]
There's something in the air there
makes you go insane
brings you back to me
it's been so long
all that i have to do
is live along
it's coming coming down
over me
do you want to see
the explosions in my eye
do you want to see
the reflection of
how we used to be
beauty lies
in the eyes of anothers dreams
beauty lies
lost in anothers dream
it's coming coming down
over me
do you want to see
the explosions in my eye
do you want to see
the reflection of
how it used to be

hey baby
hey sweetheart
hey fox come here
hey beautiful
come here sugar
