Berikut ini lirik lagu “C.B” dari Sonic Youth:
[Claude Bessy]
I'm the emcee. Hmmm... 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...
Hmm... Sonic Youth, um, are a band...
[something says something, C. B. chuckles]
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 Ethiopia 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, you know?
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 Moore]
We'd like to thank Claude for that delightful speech
