Music is what ever you want it to be. Stop being a judgmental asshole and condescending about songs you don't like. Next time, just leave and let people listen to songs they like without having some stupid comment telling them what they like is bad.
omg all you religous fucks knock it off seriously the top comment is aha with both hands on the wheel wow its supposed to be ock not some gay poetic shit
@mudjunky78 yeah, this album was given a 'glam rock' feeling cos of the input of david bowie and mick ronson. Also, Lou Reed (the cultural genius that he was/is) knew how to keep up with the times and retain his own style. love it!
don't say crap like that dude barniee they wish they had what lou has so go bent over and get ours jonas brothers suck my dick too while you watch fool
@amicenufiidiot: on another video, i've seen comments saying that pink floyd are emo, while jonas brothers are the best. nothing can surprise me after that :))
tattered, blue-purple clouds, reddening in the east, were scudding before the wind. It was growing lighter and lighter. That curly grass which always grows by country roadsides became clearly visible, still wet with the night's rain; the drooping branches of the birches, also wet, swayed in the wind and flung down bright drops of water to one side.
Hey, did you know theres a retrospective of Nat Finkelsteins work from 20th Jan - 14th Feb at a gallery in London called IDEA GENERATION. He documented Warhols Factory in the 60's. You should check it out! :-)
Well, the jonas brothers usally have much more sophistication with thier song writing and are more original generally, ecspecially with thier EP... hits like S.O.S etc etc
@barniee1 what....the...fuck is your problem jonas brothers? are you fucking kidding god plaese tell me yes christ sakes you faggot jonas brothers are a bunch of kids who wont have sex till marige you religous freaks gota knock that shit off rock and roll is sex pistols, ramones, rancid, SO FUK GOD HE IS DEAD FUK JESUS HE IS NAILD TO A CROSS AND FUCK YOU YOUR A FUKIN FREAK WHO BELEIVES THAT THE POPE ISNT A CHILD MELESTER YOU DUMB FUCK!
Point taken. The Velvets did stop playing "Heroin" for a few years because Lou realized some kids were getting the wrong message and had started shooting up because of the song.
lol bud your either waaaay out there, or you don't know what your talking about, and im not saying you dont know anything about the factory, if you've lived 10% of that lifestyle then i'd think you might understand
Yeah and which guy were you in the videos of The Factory, marshall? If you weren't there then leave the kid alone. 16-18 is the ideal age to discover The Velvets and glamrock. May it always be so.
all im saying is that it may seem glamourous but dont think that using drugs is .that was my only point okay? i just hope he rea;izes that its fun to watch and that scene changed the world in that apartment in manhattan but that doesnt mean HE should go and do those things, its not all glamourous, i know you get it because the music's good and so is the art, just dont use drugs cause lou or anyone from the factory did
She wants us to note that even though she's so young, she likes good music. It's like saying, "I'm only 8 years old and I play the violin like the gods. I'm special"
Why? Isn't musical taste like christianity? wether youve been a christian all your life or first believed it at the age of 79, you still go to heaven? Isn't it the same with music? Weather you liked it when your 9 or listened to the Jonas Brithers tilll you were 64+, you still like Lou Reed right?
I was 26 when I first discovered "Transformer" now 30, will always love this song and album. How dare a radio station proclaim they play "Classic Rock" and not play this ditty. God bless em for their ignorance on "Walk on the Wild Side" though I truly believe every station should begin or end their days with "Perfect Day"
who wants to meet me in Tompkins Square Park on the East Side. We get a few beers at the pub. Listen to this song on a park bench along with perfect day. bet we draw a crowd. email me. only if your free.
one of my favorite Lou Reed tunes.. oh please..St Germain i've come this way.... never heard this album until the '90s. yes i am mother nature's son. could only happen to me. i'm so free. lost & found. anyone here familiar with this album when it came out? Lou Reed was on the fringe...not paid attention to or respected until the Internet. that's the truth. i'm a fan.
I love Lou Reed he's one of my fav rock iconic heroes right here.Damn right he definetly deseves to be in th hall of fame,oh he already is Yay!!!!!!!!!
my sister is cool. I bought her a thong for her 18th b-day. Every day she sunbathes in the thong i got her. It sexy cause she winks at me and blows kisses. I love my family
lou has saved my ass repeatedly with his music unfortunatlley most of his stuff reminds me of 13 years of heroin addiction, this tune however reminds me of getting clean which is essentially what the song is about, im an english graduate now,
Yes you were the nature's son..(but you were not the only one)and you did what you wont;but firstly you are still one of the best world's rocker,mr Reed!!!

That curly grass which always grows by country roadsides became clearly visible, still wet with the night's rain; the drooping branches of the birches, also wet, swayed in the wind and flung down bright drops of water to one side.
