What does Xiu Xiu mean?

[HeartsJuxtaposed]

I love Xiu Xiu, and have for a long time, and over this time I've heard many different opinions about what it means.

Does anyone know for sure? I don't know if there is already a thread regarding this topic, if so, I apologize...I'm just highly curious.

Someone at the Morgantown show (which was amazing, I talked with Jamie) said it meant poop but I just don't think so, haha.

Anyway, thanks for any information.

Precocious Wen Xiu (16-year-old Lu Lu), playfully called Xiu Xiu by her friends

I believe it's just a name from this movie

yea, on the old lo-fi blue website they mentioned taking it from Xiu Xiu: The Sent Down Girl, with Jamie describing it as "the most depressing movie ever."

In an old interview I asked him:

Nick: "Xiu Xiu the Sent Down Girl came out in 1998. Have you seen anything since then that’s rivaled it for your title of “the most depressing movie in the world?” If no, anything come close?"

Jamie S.: "Aside from the news, no."

To shamelessly plug said interview, it's at

It was conducted shortly after "A Promise"
