Sonic Youth - Starpower Lyrics

Love the sound of this era, bands like Sonic Youth and Husker Du.

*The Drug War; Opium versus Opioids:*
The difference between opium and opioids is like the difference between a fine Bordeaux and $3 vodka. Opium has been around since ancient Egypt and was first used in the Far East. It was legal on several occasions and brought to the USA by John Jacob Astor. This new synthetic stuff is a cheap hamburger and will rot your brain. Opium has been disinformed to the general public because of its quality factor and elitist secrecy. These users think they're so hip with their designer synthetic drugs but they are really taking a shovel full of poisonous antimony. I'm a fresh logic fanatic and only use tobacco but anyone with enough drive can put 2 and 2 together. I'm convinced opium is the reason for the Whitechapel murders back when they started to cover it up. The opioids, I think, are chemically engineered from a small amount of cheap opium along with a bunch of other cheap chemicals. They're really getting a drop of rain in a desert. Many things have been disinformed, including the math system, metals in the periodic table, the "eternal life" philosopher's egg, the dangers of sexuality, Occultist poison, true reasons for the militia, and religious truths like atheism, rhetorical techniques...more to come, I'm sure. You could even go as far as simple engine mounting, magnetic energy, simple archimedean machines, and flip-animation...

Opaque and elegant

one of my all time favourite SY songs

Absolutely love this one! Starpower!

Lung leg. That girl on the cover of evol

Spinning dreams with angel wings
Torn blue jeans, a foolish grin
Burning down in the night
So cool, so right
Star power, star power
Star power over me
She knows how to make love to me
She knows how to make love
[Chorus]
Close my eyes and think of you
Everything turns black to blue
Star power, star power
Star power over me
Burning down in the night
Super cool, it's alright
She knows how to make love to me
She knows how to make love
[Chorus]
Close my mind when I think of you
Everything turns black to blue
Star power, star power
Star power over me

i need remix more fucking noise at 1.03min again and again

SY was so fucking underrated man

The first song I heard by Sonic Youth!

This record and the Jesus and Mary Chain made me reconsider guitar lessons

Back to School

este disco es DIVINIDAD

Always a masterpiece

This song is so dreamy

i love EVOL

Brilliant and underappreciated

A classic one. By the way, I still have goosebumps from these Richard Kern's films. And Lydia, of course.

Lightyear ahead starpowered

encountered Lung-leg once, fucking deranged girl.

Where did you meet her?

Omg when where!! How was it omg

im 16 again

Haha I relate

She knows how to make love

very beautiful noise Gauntlife

With "The Sprawl" my favourite S.Y.'s song. Chatting planets making noise....

Esse álbum é uma pérola...

Lee Ranaldo's Voice would have suited this song. Think about it..

Johnny Trash it must have been weird

Johnny Trash his voice is shit

Really? wow!

I am writing of singing not shit. Shit consists of one vowel and three consonants, singing consists of two vowels and five consonants.

so powerful

i adore this album

so. many. memories.

Starpower!!!

Those opening chords immediately take me back to ditching school to hang out on Melrose.

Me too high school days

uuuunlimited powaaaaaah

I love the darkness of their sound in this album. Also, this song reminds me of New York.

classic.

Close my eyes and think of you everything turns black and blue....

restores my faith in music

there needs to be a love button.  Almost 30 years later - this song is still epic.

watching this in 2015 and still in love

Noise. Beautiful noise.

Alternative Rock starts right here...

lol no not even close

Alternative rock starts with the Velvet Underground. But Sonic Youth were an important group in the development of the genre.

Almost 30 years of loving this album. Where did all of the time go?

Frank Spade it went to your listening to the album.

There may be GREATNESS in that guitar intro somewhere.....

Fucking great.

EVOL is such a great album.

i really like when Kim said "She knows how to make love to me" hehe, but honestly this is one of my favorite songs of Sonic youth

weres my comment...
