Sonic Youth – JC Lyrics 18 years ago
Oh no, this song is just about Joe Cole (like 100%..) This guy has been murdered, he was a good friend of the band, he made a lot of road with them during the 90-92 tour, so JC doesn't mean jesus christ but Joe Cole

Sonic Youth – Trilogy Lyrics 19 years ago
I think they're talking about NYC or big cities in general ... (NYC because they're from there and often talk about it....)

In the three song there's phrases that refer to cities and crowds :

a ) "I'm just walkin' around
Your city is a wonder town "

"I think I've been there, once before
Something tells me, there's so much more
She's back in town, to even the score
It's time to go "

b) "Smashed-up against a car at three A.M.
Kids just up for basketball, beat me in my head
There's bum trash in my hall and my place is ripped
I've totaled another amp, I'm calling in sick"

c) "Kids cruise away, pack of chickenshits "
"A poor rich boy coming right through me "

Or maybe the first part is a dream, all is going very fast, Thurston is roaring out etc...
The second part is when he wake up ( "Falling out of sleep, I hit the floor " ...) and then the rythme slow down, Thurston describe the reality...

Then the third part... i don't know... Kim would want roaring out too :)

Ayway, it's a beautiful Package of song (and sound).

Sonic Youth – Schizophrenia Lyrics 19 years ago

The first part is a little story in which Thurston explain that he met a very strange girl schizophrenic...

the second part is the girl that talk ( Kim's voice ) and try to explain her pain....

Sonic Youth – Total Trash Lyrics 19 years ago
I didn't understand this song and what we should understand to now what Thurston is talking about is this verse : "It start at the top
Now it's spiralling down
Works best when it's lost
Diggin' under the ground "...

But the guitar riff and the rythme is so good that i totally don't care about the meaning...

Long life to Sonic Tooth !!!
