That single featured, as many did, a B-side. A quality that I hope my daughter will develop as she gets older. Back in 1969, Delaney & Bonnie released the song 'Comin' Home'.
#SONIC YOUTH SUPERSTAR OTHER RECORDINGS OF THIS SONG MOVIE#
Ultimately, Juno is a movie all about love and doing what's right no matter how hard it is. Recommend me a song, I’ll rate it and if it’s 10/10 I’ll give you silver. The true standouts from the soundtrack were some of the beautiful acoustic tracks, filled with the quirkiness of the Moldy Peaches cover of "Anyone Else but You," done by Ellen Page and Michael Cera or the heart-wrenching Cat Powers track "Sea of Love." These tracks served as the perfect backdrop to the storyline.
Thankfully, this led to some great music being featured in the film, like Sonic Youth's cover of the Carpenter's classic "Superstar," and two great Belle & Sebastian tracks. It's like two different worlds colliding, as Juno's life intersects with Mark and Vanessa's, as shown in the varying musical taste of Juno (who's into 70s punk) and Mark (who's a product of 90s indie rock). On the other hand, it follows married couple Mark and Vanessa (Played by Jason Bateman and Jennifer Garner) coming to terms with not being able to have children as they look to adopt a baby and all the stresses that can accompany the process. From one aspect, it's the story of an eclectic uncompromising adolescent (played by Ellen Page) coming to terms with who she is while dealing with an unplanned pregnancy.
Juno is one of those movies that resonates with so many different types of people. The alternative rock band Sonic Youth covered this in 1994 for the Carpenters tribute album If I Were A Carpenter. This led to me brainstorming a great movie soundtrack to honor her appearance into my life. The final line of the song, "I love you, I really do," echoes the sentiment of the entire song – a deep and all-consuming love for someone who may never be theirs.I know it's been a little while since I've posted a soundtrack playlist, but during my hiatus my wife and I welcomed our beautiful daughter Madeline Grace into the world. The narrator is waiting for the musician to come back to them, and can hardly bear the thought of being without them.
Throughout the song, there is an underlying sense of loneliness and longing. The narrator is holding on to this promise, hoping that the person will return to them and their shared connection. The chorus of the song repeats the lines "Don't you remember you told me you love me baby / You said you'd be coming back this way again baby," which suggest that the two have had some sort of connection in the past. Another album closer (this time to 1986’s Evol), another track referencing Charles Manson and another masterpiece that manages to exude the essence of all that has gone before it. However, it seems that the two have never been in a relationship, despite the narrator's deep feelings. Famously, Expressway To Yr Skull is Neil Young ’s favourite Sonic Youth song. The object of their affections is a musician, and their guitar playing is particularly enticing to the narrator. The narrator fell in love with someone while listening to their music on the radio, before ever meeting them in person. The lyrics to Sonic Youth's Superstar are about unrequited love and the longing for someone who is not physically present.
