I’m completely mind-blown by Laurie Anderson’s Oh Superman—written in 1981, it feels eerily prophetic, especially for today’s surveillance state. The line ‘You don’t know me, but I know you’ almost reads like an anthem for today’s crowd sourced panopticon. The sequence from love to justice, force, and finally ‘mom’ feels like a chilling progression toward the nanny state, with her long electric arms wrapping us up under their control. It’s incredible how this song speaks so deeply to our present world of technology, surveillance, and power. It’s tripping me out all weekend!! Just discovered she was married to Lou Reed too!
