Sonic Youth - C.b.
Claude Bessy: I`m The Emcee,
Um... So I`m Supposed To Be Saying Let`s Hear It For Sonic Youth,
All The Way From The States.
Except Uh... Actually I`d Like About Two Minutes
Of Your Attention.
Shut Your Fucking Face, I Want Just Two Minutes Of Your Attention,
I Have A Very Interesting Little Story To Tell You.
Two Minutes, Not Very Long, Right?
And It`s A...
It`s A Very Instructive Little Story.
Um... Sonic Youth, Um, Are A Band.. Shh Shh Shh...
Uh, They`re About To Put Out A Record In This Country Except Their
Record Company Has Decided To Put A No-no On The Record.
Because Of, Uh... The Cover Which Is Offending Some People At
Rough Trade. And Now, It`s Not.. I Mean It`s Not Very Offensive
Cover, It`s Uh, It`s Got A Naked Lady, A Naked Puerto Rican Lady, It`s
Not Very Obscene, She`s Not Doing Anything Weird.
Uh... It Has Nothing To Do With.. You Know, In This Day Of Aids, An
Uh.. And [?] And All That Shit, Uh, You Would Think The Major
Alternative Record Company Would Have Better Things To Do Than
Worry About The Shape Of Our Bodies. So, I Thought I`d Let You
Know, Uh, So... Um... Next Time You Go And Buy A Record, And You
Think You`re Really Alternative And Groovy, And Uh, Everybody Is
In... Is Into The Alternative Charts, Remember It`s Just Like The Other
Side Except It`s A Bit, A Bit Stranger, You Know... But Just Remember,
It`s Not Uh... There`s No Fucking Culture There, You Know.
There`s Just As Much Censorship Among People Our Age, Or You
Know.. Than Anyone Else.
Thurston: We`d Like To Thank Claude For That Delightful Speech.
This Song Is Called The Green Light. It`s About Green Love.
