Riff: Ty Segall – “Don’t You Want to Know (Sue)”

Aug 26, 2014

Oh Susie, Susie Thumb/Your life’s just begun/Don’t you wonder, wonder so?/How it, it will go?

from Don't You Want to Know (Sue) lyrics by Ty Segall

The second half of the “Susie Thumb” saga feels more ‘60’s psychedelic, which makes it the more (understatedly) appealing of the two. Whether that makes up for or benefits from the even simpler (and more repetitive) lyricism here is up to the listener.
