I believe I first heard of this song via the End of Days soundtrack which my brother Augy brought home for one reason and one reason only. The soundtrack "Oh My God", the first Guns 'N Roses song to come-out of Axl's heavily revamped GNR lineup. While that song was good in it's own way, one of this Sonic Youth song was the song that really made an impression on me (the album contained songs from other bands like I liked by the way... Korn, Limp Bizkit, Creed, Eminem, etc.)
It would be years when I would encounter a copy of Sonic Youth's own album, Dirty, which has a sock-puppet pictured on the cover. My own copy would be literally dirty... smudged and frazzled edges in the inlays, as it was a used copy that I bought at a 2nd hand store in Quiapo.
I tried to learn this song today on bass as well. Sometimes I still can't believe how great songs like this can be created out of 3 guitar chords that I learned as a 4th grade kid (C, D, G).
You're perfect in the way, a perfect end today
You're burning out their lights, and burning in their eyes
I love you Sugar Kane, a-comin' from the rain
Oh kiss me like a frog, and turn me into flame
I love you all the time, I need you 8 to 9
And I can stay all night, your body shining
And I know
There's something down there sugar soul
Back to the cross a twisted lane
There something down there sugar kane
I'm back again in love, I'm back again a dove
Where'd you get your light, your smilin' sugar life
Another lovers day, another cracked up night
Every night I say, the light is coming
And I know
There's something down there sugar cone
Back to the cross a twisted lane
There's something down there sugar kane
Hey angel come and play, and fly me away
A stroll along the beach, until you're out of time
I love you sugar kane, a crack into the dream
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar kane
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar kane
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar
You're burning out their lights, and burning in their eyes
I love you Sugar Kane, a-comin' from the rain
Oh kiss me like a frog, and turn me into flame
I love you all the time, I need you 8 to 9
And I can stay all night, your body shining
And I know
There's something down there sugar soul
Back to the cross a twisted lane
There something down there sugar kane
I'm back again in love, I'm back again a dove
Where'd you get your light, your smilin' sugar life
Another lovers day, another cracked up night
Every night I say, the light is coming
And I know
There's something down there sugar cone
Back to the cross a twisted lane
There's something down there sugar kane
Hey angel come and play, and fly me away
A stroll along the beach, until you're out of time
I love you sugar kane, a crack into the dream
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar kane
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar kane
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar
