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

sunday comes alone again
a perfect day for a quiet friend
and you - you will set it free
i see new morning yound yr face
everybody sez its another phase
and now - now its come to me
see the magic in yr eyes
i see it come as no surprise
and you - you turn yr eyes away
yeah you - you turn it all away
i guess its true its never too late
still i don't know what to do today
oh why - can't i set you free
will you - do the same for me
sunday comes and sunday goes
sunday always seems to move so slow
to me - here she comes again
a perfect ending to a perfect day
a perfect ending what can i say
to you - lonely sunday friend
with you - sunday never ends
