Just a perfect day, Drink Sangria in the park, And then later, when it gets dark, We go home. Just a perfect day, Feed animals in the zoo Then later, a movie, too, And then home. Oh it's such a perfect day, I'm glad I spent it with you. Oh such a perfect day, You just keep me hanging on, You just keep me hanging on. Just a perfect day, Problems all left alone, Weekenders on our own. It's such fun. Just a perfect day, You made me forget myself. I thought I was someone else, Someone good....
The BBC funded and made this video to promote the pilosophy behind it's origins; that we the viewer pay for it and make it what it is. It was aired on UK tv in the late 90's and such was the reaction amongst the public demanding to buy the song the BBC decided to release it with all proceeds goin to charity. For the record, Pavarotti DOES NOT appear in this song and never has done, he may have appeared in later covers but not this particular one with all the other legends.

Only Lou Reed should be singing this song. The reason for this is because, contrary to what some may think, this song is about Lou's struggle with heroin. You can here it in his voice when he sings it. With everyone else they sing it like a love song when its not supposed to be happy.
Nice collaboration. The female voices really add to the presentation of this song for me. reminds me of little Maureen Tucker's voice on the old VU recordings.
thank for the best song ever i love to listen to every morning, thank for whoever sang, sing and have sung this song, and specialy the artist Lou Reed
Who told Lou Reed he could sing?
