Sonic Youth - Disappearer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MySZtE3F-4Y

And here it comes again - right out of the rain
Seems to have a new - kind of same
Been it playing on a - simple rhyme
The sign comes alive and - speaks the mind
It turns to me and - it turns to gold
It turns to see - the fast lane slow

It’s been away too long
It’s been away, I'm gone
It is coasting on
To the west star

Looking out I thought I - saw it blink
Coming on to me - like a silver eye
Pick it up and - turn it on and
Head on out to - a western starland

It’s been mad, and gone
Now it’s a singing song
Like a western star
It’s going my way

Looking out I’m back in - time to stay
Into the eastern - side of way
It comes alive - through and clearer
Ghost arise - into a mirror

You’ve been away too long
It’s been way too long
An eastern star is on
A disappearer

2. Wow.

I used to not like Sonic Youth (I know, I know, blasphemy) but I think that song has changed my mind about them. I even added it to my favorite videos on YouTube. I think I'll check out more of their stuff.

EDIT: After listening to several more of their songs on Skreemr.com, I am now officially converted. I'm so buying Daydream Nation. I'd only heard one or two of their songs before.

The one-song conversion has happened before. I used to despise Rage Against the Machine until I heard "Guerrilla Warfare," (at least I think that's what it was, it's the song that goes "now you do what they told ya" over and over) and I used to hate the Beastie Boys before I heard "Triple Trouble" and now I love both those bands.
