Sonic Youthis an experimental rockgroup formed in New York City in 1981. They are generally seen as one of the leading innovators of contemporary rock music. In their early career Sonic Youth were associated with the no waveart and music scene in New York City, but have outlasted most associated bands. Initially inspired by the noise experimentationof Glenn Brancaand The Velvet Undergroundand the heavy garage rockof The Stooges, they are known for using a variety of unorthodox guitar tunings, and for applying screwdrivers, drumsticks or other preparations to guitars to alter the instruments timbre. Members of the band have released books of poetry and prose (a beatnik influence is evident in both their writing and lyrics), produced, written and performed in films (such as "1991: The Year Punk Broke", "Perfect Partner", "(this is known as) the blues scale" and "last days").

Sonic Youth
You go to my head.......
Mention of you.......
The very mention of you........
You go to my head........
Yeah, that's right now...
Right...
Okay, okay, I'm sorry...
I did go in there
And I did eat their porridge
And I sat in the chairs
The three chairs
And um, I did break a chair
And um, then I...
I went upstairs, I was feeling really tired
And there are these three beds there
And I laid down on one bed and it was too high
It was just too high...
So then, I um, you know, this ain't a big deal
I went and I laid in the middle-sized bed
And it was too soft
And I was so tired
And I got up and I went to the little bed
And I laid down
And you know it was just right...
And you know, I just fell asleep
And uh...
I'm sleeping
And then, like, suddenly
Somebody wakes me up
And they say "what are you doing in my bed?"
And I just got up and... I...
I just bolted
You know...
It just wasn't cool to say that
And I went to the forest so fast
And I never think back
