Cat Power - Nude As The News

About "Nude As The News"

"Nude as the News" is a song by the American singer/songwriter Cat Power (a.k.a. Chan Marshall). It is the fourth song on her 1996 album, What Would the Community Think. It was released as a single, and a music video shot entirely in black and white and directed by Brett Vapnek.

A review in Vulture called the song both eerie and propulsive, saying that "it rolls like a long snarl." The song is autobiographical, telling the story of an abortion that Marshall had when she was twenty. The chorus lyric, "Jackson, Jesse, I've got a son in me", does not refer to the Reverend Jesse Jackson but rather the first names of the children of Patti Smith, one of Marshall's heroes.The B-side "Schizophrenia's Weighted Me Down" is a composite of the two songs "Schizophrenia" by Sonic Youth and "Weighted Down (The Prison Song)" by Skip Spence.
