Sonic Youth - Tunic (Song For Karen) Lyrics

Я на питьевой ^^

I just close my eyes and listen to this song. Gives me chills to my bones

this is one of the best video's I've ever seen♥♥♥♥💘♥♥♥♥

1:50 there's just something so raw about that riff there that I can't put my finger on. That guy really knew something about life

timeless

this video feels like an infomercial you watch at 2 am that you have to hide from your parents because it gave you your first sexual awakening, I wonder how much pbs and Sonic youth worked together in their long storied careers (;

Hello! This is 20 20

Love it. I always have.

This video was made by David Lynch

A great tribute to Karen. Amazing song, amazing band... You aren't ever going anywhere.

one of my favorite song ever. ever.

This good avant garde
Getting smaller everyday, anorexia so fuckin make me scare

ive always just listened to the guitar symphnny and rhythm of that song. Never realised the literal reality of the lyrics until reading the comments section. Brilliant. Seen the Youth plenty of times. Shame they're no more, a great live experience

and it was !

Uffff temazo! La letra oscura, el video me encanta, amo esta canción ❤️
Un homenaje grandioso a Karen Carpenter.

I miss first discovering this ;/ best days of my life.

The band's not half bad

Just listen. Music does not get any better than this.

Don't be sad, the band's not half bad

So what's the back story of this song? I know it's for Karen carpenter, but I've never heard of her before.. Can anyone help me out please?

Karen Carpenter?

From this video we see that they didn't take themselves too seriously, while they were reinventing rock music.

Anyone think this sounds like Age of Empires

Art makes all the good and all the crap acceptable.You can apply it to everything.Art is everywhere and all seeing....
It may help you reach the sun.

Ohhh yes. That's the drug song!

I don't know why but for some reason this song reminds me of Princess Diana

"Little girl's got the blues".

This gives me LSD flashbacks ..

What is YouTube recommending these days?

Now I'm scared.

And this where Scion car got its name.

to me this is by far their best song - still gives me this chills

this song makes me fly

Now i want to listen to schizophrenia

Inoubliable.

Awesome

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint

"REAL ROCK ERA" 90s.

This song deserves be a rock hymn on the tops

Boy I miss the grunge aesthetic & sound & ideas, but at the same time it was a little bit like joining a cult... especially with the whole poser/fake thing... but so funny though how the people who were going around accusing everybody else of being posers and fakes turned out to actually be the posers and fakes :D

The most haunting song I’ve ever heard.

Love this band but some of their music videos hasn't aged super well

Dirección: enrique segoviano

Who is Dennis

D.Boon maybe

VANITAS

a negative eulogy .. the truth .

God give mi a gun to shoot my self

You said honey, you look so underfed.  That's one of only two songs that ever made me cry.  The other is Motorhead 1916.  52yo male here.

So glad I didn't smoke before watching this!

Sonic should name a hamburger combo after these guys. "I'll have a Gordon Bleu Burger, Moore Fries with a Sonic Shake".

I saw these kids at the Latin Quarter in Detroit, 1990. Iggy Pop played the Fox Theater that same night. They were loud and fuzzy. Very loud.

I love Karen Carpenter & I love Kim Gordon & Sonic Youth.

This song is heavy. Lyrically and emotionally

*the bit where they're all around her as she sleeps reminded me of that lewis and the news clip where they all sing around the girls bed*

I was 5 at the time this was on mtv, so fuck my life, yeah.

Great Tune

Seriously, Karen was an under-appreciated instrumentalist (drummer), singer and songwriter -- her music may have been too mainstream "poppy" for heavier rock fans, but there was a depth to her lyrics that most pop songs of her times didn't dare have.

PLEASE, can someone find the name of the song with Kim repeating "Don't look at me" in the background over and over. I've searched every lyric I remember of it and NOTHING. Ghost song.

No Wave

just listened to this for the first time, after hearing it mentioned in a documentary. I can`t say anymore about it, because I need to stop my ear`s bleeding, so off to A&E!!!

lp goo 1990

A powerful tribute if there ever was one. Sad and haunting but liberating as it gives Karen a voice she was denied while living.

😦😢

No girl in the ever world could match this.

Karen give the kids back please I miss them they're my kids too

this *IS* the song where the bridge was supposed to have them singing a Carpenters song but of course Mr. Richard did the old *'copyright infringement' rubbish* like he did to poor old *Todd Hayes with his 'Superstar' flick*

As much as the sonic youth songs are beatiful their videos are horrible and stupid, some of the worst i ve ever seen..

Who else had this pirated on their walkman with Slayer on the other side? Just me? OK then.

shit soo good

shit... loooong ago... me, my board, my favourite half pipe and sonic youth..... best times in youth! ;)

Whenever i hear this song it just hurts my soul :'(

Why are they not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

lo mas 10 10 10 10 10

This song is the only song that makes me cry. Rest in peace Karen, wherever you are I hope you're happy and we all love you. ❤️

P.s, thank you Kim for coming up with these lyrics and letting people hear her story.

Increible cancion y escalofriante video. Solo Sonic Youth puede hacer estas obras de arte. Thank you,Sonic Youth!! Rip Karen

Blonds and blue eyes have more fun but really mid remembered the next day

None can choose probably why they call it Red

Nothing makes me cry, but this song does it easily.

So much SY

Such a badass song

Ce disque sent la dope ; Autant que le premier Velvet. Certains sons changent votre ADN ...

Kim Gordon is so ugly she has horse-face

this scares the hell out of me

I'm learning this song on guitar and it's so weird to play lmao the tuning is fucked

What is the tuning?

@Out Of Oblivion Productions GGDDGG (tuned up not down)

@Rebby L Thanks. They liked that GD combo. Great start this song, when the drums kick in.

@Out Of Oblivion Productions I'm playing it for a cover band I'm in and I love it it has so much energy but it actually pretty easy to play.

@Rebby L awesome not your usual covers band :) Keep the Indie flame burning. I saw SY twice. Now I love Stereolab.

SYs greatest era was Sister, Daydream nation, Goo, and Dirty...

I love how I had a food commercial before this song😅

So..
Sonic youth

Excellent !!!!!!!

Brillant song that would deserve a better video

This is one of my favorite songs by sonic youth. Kim is such a badass

:( hard grappling this shit

Que temazo!!👏👏

This Free Soul are so lovable... I wish i could have loved her.

i wish she could have loved her

Terrifying but accurate! Wonder what ol' Richard thought of this?!

Its nice to know that a band can break when they hit their 40's.
