Have you ever seen Antony perform? I saw him last year singing with Lou Reed....my daughter freaked out....the best comparison I can make (for us old poots) is Joe Cocker.....with Tourette's! Take care, Eric
I love that song! Including Antony's version...but now I'm really excited because I discovered some Velvet Underground rehearsal tapes from 1966...at the Factory, including Nico....not always great sound quality, although its better than I'd expect............really interesting..but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who isn't already a VU lover.....................Take care, Eric
The song was written by David Lynch/Angelo Badalamenti for the movie Blue Velvet... originally performed by Julee Cruise (she of Twin Peaks fame.. she also sang Falling from said TV series)...
This version though... hmmm... maybe it's that time of the year...
thought I'd add the youtube link for anyone who wants to hear:-
A Lou Reed concert from Sept, 1973....right when "Berlin" was released...the first stop of what became the "Rock & Roll Animal" tour......but much better than what ended up on that record...which was not my favorite Lou Reed album................Take care, Eric
