My Song of the Day

Song: Bull In the Heather (live on Letterman)
Artist: Sonic Youth
Album: Experimental Jet Set, Trash & No Star

After watching Juno, the underlying theme I walked out with was Sonic Youth. Weird, I know. Without giving anything away from the movie the line, "It's just noise!" resonates when talking about the band. Although some songs are a little too experimental even for my taste, this song is one of the first that I remember hearing from the band (I was 8, I think) and I came away thinking that I have to hear more from this band. While this performance from Dave may not be the best in their arsenal, it makes the Juno experience come full circle as a very pregnant Kim Gordon leads the group.
