You Look So Fine - Song Profile

Song Profile

"You Look So Fine" was written, recorded and mixed at Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin. One of the very final songs written during the recording of Version 2.0, "You Look So Fine" was created from a scrapped track titled "King of Crime" which had been abandoned very late in 1997. "You Look So Fine" was completed just as mixing for the album began in January 1998. Butch Vig described it as his favourite song from Version 2.0 citing its "Carpenters covers Sonic Youth quality" "You Look So Fine" was first performed live on May 15, 1998 in Combined Locks, Wisconsin on the first date of the Version 2.0 tour. In advance of the song's eventual single release in late 1998, Garbage performed the song on TV recordings for MTV Europe and MusiquePlus.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or profile:

    The city sleeps and the country sleeps,
    The living sleep for their time, the dead sleep for their time,
    The old husband sleeps by his wife and the young husband sleeps by his wife;
    And these tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them,
    And such as it is to be of these more or less I am,
    And of these one and all I weave the song of myself.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Actor: Electrician, a little more this way with that spotlight. What are you trying to do, ruin my profile?
    Electrician: Your profile was ruined the day you were born.
    James Gleason (1886–1959)
