that's funny as hell, one time i was sharing my (apparently popular) opinion w/ my friend about this song and said "anything would sound better than what he's singing, even 'driving around, driving around...'"

..am i your mom?

I like RR, it's nostalgic for me too
Turqoise Boy is one of my fav songs on there
anyone know what Thurston says at the very beginning of that song?

[SonicBebs]

there was a youtube 'in the studio' kinda film around RR's release. They had a instrumental version of Sleeping Around playing and it was incredible. Much much better than RR version

[EvdWee]

wasn't that just a loop of the riff played?

[EvdWee]

no, you're right: http://www.sonicyouth.com/videos/summer_05.mov

Sleeping Around is really good musically. If it wasn't for the lyrics it'd be one of the best of the album. I still listen to it and think it's a good listen, but I'm afraid the lyrics really drag it down.

damn right

hi, by the way

[chrome noise tape]

musically sounds good ( i like the bass riff ) not my best from R.R (helen lundberg is my fav.) but it's ok...i'm more into the sound than the words...i don't care who is sleeping around (that's a thing i need to do more, to sleep)

[noisereductions]

"Reena" is one of the best SY songs of the last 10 yrs. (I'll say it again).

rats and pink steam are great.

i <3 helen lundeberg.

Rats and Pink Steam are the only 2 on there I ever listen to. I end up skipping everything else. But..Sleepin around did catch my ear, cause I find that type of lifestyle dispicable. I am a total monogamy lover.

Sleepin around is ignorant and selfish.

No offense meant. I am a beliver in god, (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH CHURCH) but I am not a judgemental bitch who hates everyone that does not think like I do. This is only my opinion that I have gathered through my own life experiences. In a world that is constantly pumping in the idea that life is about sex, someone has to say something; cause the only ones I hear sayin anything are "god fearing" hypocrites who are FAKE so no one listens anyway. I am not fake I do what I say. I am a sinner and accept myself as such. I do not think this way cause some preacher told me to.


Yes, I have slept around and it only led to hurting others as well as myself. I only did it cause I WANTED the attention that the pigs gave me. Then they left me on the curb cause they already got what they were looking for. I WAS SELFISH AND IGNORANT. Ignorant because I was under the impression that sex brings love and spreads love. Selfish for not thinking of how I was affecting someone else's life. What if I did get pregnant? Then I would have to choose between a child's life or mine. If I chose the child's life how great of a life would they have had from a teenage single uneducated mother? Not to mention the father of the child or my parents lives. If I had not pursued my own selfish desire for attention the the choice would not have had to been made in the first place. I consider myself lucky that I did'nt contract any diseases or spread them. I was blessed not to have gotten pregnant at 15. That is why I have come to this conclusion. Love has nothing to do with sex. Sex alone makes only the body happy love makes you happy. I never liked sex until I found someone I loved. I just thought I was supposed to like it cause all the girls on TV did.
I was hurt because of others selfishness. I was given no love. People just slept around behind my back and left me to endure the pain they caused.
All I'm sayin is that everywhere I look, everyone is sayin fuck anything you want who cares about the cosequences. We have reverted to animals. When I watch tv, every show is innundated with sexual innuendos..Every other commercial is for viagra, herpes medicine, the morning after pill, condoms, ky jelly. There are so many herpes commercials cause everyone's spreadin around like it's gold. If people don't take the consequences into account they are gonna be in for a big surprise when the shit hits the fan.

Thanks! But it isn't all about religion and my beliefs. It is a matter of logical sense.
