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").

Let me tell you every thought that Ive come to
When I think of all the things that you do
I cant see if youre the only one - its hard to say
And I think its all the same to me today
I can see you too
If I can just see you this one time
I sit alone
Everyones at home
I see it
I believe
Somehow I know its true
Your genetic kiss to me
I live inside of you
I have heard it said before itll never happen
Had it drilled in since a kid it makes my head spin
Im still looking for these thing that I cant find
Thought just come and go swirling through my mind
I see me and you
Then its him Im thinking of
We sit alone
No one else at home
I taste it
I feel
And now I know its true
Your genetic kiss reveals
Ill always be with you
Hey baby, its you Im thinking of
Hey baby, who do you love
Dont worry baby, Im watching them as you sleep
Let me whisper, some things for you to keep
Theres no perfect idea
Theres no perfect fate
Just little stabs of happiness
Sometimes a little too late
So keep your eyes wide open
And know what youre made of
Remember first thought best thought
Try to stay in love
