The Vaselines - Son Of A Gun / Molly's Lips (Live @ Summer Sonic '09)




It is good to see them live, and still great even if Eugene Kelly now looks like a grandpa. 
In the 90s, when Nirvana have more fans than they are, a lot of young guys knowing these songs from Incesticide album.
But if you want to hear the original take, you can get the CD at amazon, or download the mp3.

Sejak tahun 1998, Festival Film International Oberhausen membuat sebuah program khusus video musik (MuVi Preis) untuk mempertunjukkan video-video musik Jerman dan menjadi festival film internasional pertama yang menerima video musik sebagai ekspresi seni tersendiri, bukan sekadar ilustrasi dan iklan (promosional) musik. Video musik di Oberhausen tidak dinilai dari musiknya, melainkan dari aspek visual atau filmisnya. Lebih jauh, Oberhausen melihat bahwa sebagai bagian dari kebudayaan massa, video musik dianggap varian dari gerakan garda depan (avant-garde).



Experimentelle Deutsch-Indonesische Musikvideos merupakan pameran pertama yang memadukan video musik Jerman dan Indonesia yang berangkat dari gagasan Oberhausen. Pameran akan menampilkan 31 karya video musik eksperimental yang merupakan hasil kurasi dari Festival Film Oberhausen sejak tahun 1998 hingga 2007 yang terkemas dalam program Zur Rettung Der Popkultur: Experimentelle Deutsche Musikvideos 1998-2003 dan 2003-2007. Dari Indonesia, pameran menghadirkan 17 video musik terpilih yang diproduksi dari tahun 2002-2009. Pameran akan didahului sebuah diskusi bersama artis video dan kurator dari Indonesia.

Menghadirkan video musik Indonesia antara lain dari Seringai, Naif,
Lain, Tetty Kadi, Rock n Roll Mafia, Cozy Street Corner, Teknoshit, OK
Karaoke, The Jonis, Candyfloss, Zoo, Shark Move, Boys A For Toys,
Homogenic, & Club 80s. Karya video artis The Jadugar, Eddy Cahyono,
Andy Metay, Tromarama, Bayu Bergas, Beni Wicaksono, Gentur Galih

Thurston Moore - Psychic Hearts (live)

Psychic Hearts


From the album "Psychic Hearts"





Lyric
I know you have a fucked up life
Growing up in a stupid town
Your mother was a mixed up chick
And your father he just fucked around
A little too much for his own good
I'd kill the bastard if I could
I'd kill all the boys with their fucked up noise
And all the bullshit they seem to enjoy
The kids at school
Called you slut
Nothing but
And what the fuck are they into
The stupid fools
Losers assholes suck all the luck
Out of the world the world for you
If I can get it back to you I will
And kick their asses all over town
All over town I'll turn it over
And I don't even know you that well
What the hell summer spell
What's it like
Going out
And no one knows what you're about
Abused and used and cut in two
By hollow man with nothing to do
Laugh all the time try to get high
And try to hide behind the lie
They fucked your head up
That's for sure
Your heart is ripped now wrapped in fur
But you know that sex is pretty insane
And magic seems to kill the pain
And the things that go on inside your brain
Makes you seem to think that you're to blame
Don't think about it
Throw it out
Love 'em all and say it loud
Fight the scumbags that slap you around
Scream your crazy lost and found
We don't have to tell you what is right
We have all the faith that it was not right
Sadness is and sadness was
And sadness will always be because
Comfort comes around from the strangest of men
I got no time for sad songs baby
Don't need you to say I'm crazy
Stick your tongue and you look at me
And I will bite it off you see
Push you down onto your knees
Do you laugh away the flees
You're not the only one in town
But you're the only one that's got me down
Psychic hearts go out to you
A psychic heart go round to you
My prayer to you
Is that you do all the things you set out to do
And live your life the way you love
But will you remember one thing for me
I will always love you
I will always love you
