  “O Superman O Judge O Mom and Dad Mom and Dad Ah ha ha ha ha ha”

  As a new freshman at UCF staying in a roach-infested apartment called the Haystacks (and skipping my senior year of high school), I was drunk on my freedom. And music was a huge part of it. I don’t know how I discovered Laurie Anderson, but the minute I heard this album, I felt like I understood music in a whole different way. I saw that it could be powerful, transformative art one that subverted the traditional idea of a “song.” Plus, O Superman was great to annoy my roommate with since I was convinced she was stealing my underwear.
