Youth Song I forgot the Sheer Beauty of
 

For one reason or another, I don't really like and rarely listen to "Goo" anymore, but I just was flippin to my I-tunes to which is noticed I havn't played "Mote" in a while. Honestly, that song alone makes Goo a great record, its just amazing epic quasi-psych noise pop along with the greatest vocal melody Lee has ever done. Its actually my favorite Lee song I think, for sure.

yes
we might even all AGREE on the greatness of this song
yayz

Mote is the be-all and end-all of the sonic dochotomy. beautiful melodic lyric line, clear singing, excellent riffing, and then SHAZZAMMOOOO, the skronk dials it in for like 5 fucking minutes!!!!!

My second fave SY song ever


Put Mote and Genetic in a time capsule and save them for me to play in the last 10 minutes of my life...

yeah it is the best song on goo and one of the best sy songs.

I like Titanium Expose a lot.

^^^me too
and Tunic
and Mildred
and Cinderella
and Disppearer

huh

GOO has grown on me a lot of the years. But yeah, "Mote" is the shit on there. Strangely HITS ARE FOR SQUARES reminded (or maybe revealed to) me how awesome "Disappearer" is.

yes, it's a really brilliant song. It always "gets" me when I listen to that album..

tunic is one of the best songs they have ever written.

Not Goo related
but i always forget about

Anagrama

just structurally brilliant

Me too. That's my favorite from that album.

Mote is absolutely brilliant.

It's quite possibly my favorite on Goo.

For years Goo was my favorite album of all time...

I haven't listened to it in a while, though...I'm afraid I listen to so much stuff nowdays that it may not be as special as I remember.

But, yeah, Mote's awesome. Every song on Goo is a masterpiece to me.

Goo is one of my least favourite SY albums, but it does have a few fantastic songs, the best being Titanium Expose, followed by Mote and Tunic.

you named all the ones i don't like.

^^ha ha
let's be friends
hahahha

disappearer is a fucking BEAUTIFUL song.

Hell yeah, it's my favorite off Goo.

I like Titanium Expose. I never really notice it before, but one day when I was high the song seemed way intense which was awesome.

Mote is pure greatness. Basically, bump Disappear up a few places and the songs on Goo are ranked best-worst in exact relation to longest-shortest. There's probably a message there.

that chord that goes KWERRRAANNNGGG at the beggining of disappearer rules

I always thought it went WRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

it's more like wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiooooooooooo ooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggg

actually, I just heard it, and it is like


fffffffuuuwwaaaaaanannnngngngngggggggggggggg

You're all morons. It goes;

KRUWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE E

yeah, ive totally been rediscoving this record. its great, lots of amazing melodies and riffs, yada yada. but you know what it has a lot of that isn't even really talked about? NOISE. for a major label debut its good a lot of skronk on there, we talked about the outro to "Mote" which wouldnt have been out of place on "confusion" or "silver sessions", but also "Cinderella", "Titanium Expose", etc.. And it has some of the best all out rockers like "Dirty Boots". Unfortunately songs like "goo" ruin the record for me. Actually no they don't, Im starting to love this again.

goo does have a LOT of skronk! I love the skronk! I need sonic youth to give me more skronk because it is their skronk I am addicted to. skronkafy the soundwaves sonic youthians!
