Heroin ok, but well-beyond, she is in loneliness, in a world of solitude...It's written on his face, in his eyes..I'm very sad for her.....Love...Love....Love....
Comments re. her small pupil size indicating heroin use are questionable.She's in front of bright stage lights,so of course pupils will contract.My own experience of having kicked a 10 year opiates habit is that my pupils did not get bigger after I kicked! I actually wondered if they might,but they didn't. A lot of the early side effects of opiates use, like itchy skin, profuse sweating,etc., go away once you're an addict. Probably the eyes are less affected too.Heroin didn't kill Nico,btw.
I like Nico's music, but my God, she looks like a complete disaster here. At one time she was actually a very pretty lady. Her pupils are barely visible, she looks almost dead. They should show this to kids in schools as an after school special with a before and after photo session. Still good music though.
@TheKob1977 They really shouldn't. She's an idol. Heroin is very much a part of her celebrity and only serves accentuate her place in rock and roll. If you want to educate kids, it's best to show them a picture or scene of Bubs from the Wire. That's a more earth shattering image than a svelte German singing classic rock songs.
This is the best version of this song I saw this many times in a row I love it. shes loaded but stunning in her 40s what i'd pay to see her live whatever. Shes singing about herself... yes it's a shame that chatting idiots when shes performing. It is a point of view obviously Her heroin eyes are magic not scarry.
hey kids do what ever the fuck you want do heroin dont do heroin nobody takes advice from stupid people who judge on youtube! yeah this bitch did heroin but she also did a whole lot than your straight edge ass and you know how i know this? cause your on youtube and im on you tube
one of the greatest songs ever, and one of the most underated and unknown. All my friends and cousins have never heard this song, and I'm forty-five. I've just discovered it in 01/2010
Dude she looks so freaky in this clip. I do drugs but stuff like this really reminds me never to use heroin. To bad , Nico sang and looked much better in her good days when she actually fucked Jim Morrison. I hear she died due to internal bleedind when she fall off a bike in rehad. So sad.
It's sad that her audiences usually paid her little respect. If any of you who read this comment ever get a chance to read "Nico: The Life and Lies of an Icon," fucking read it! It's one of the best books I've ever read in my life.
I was (lucky to be) at a performance of hers in the early 80's.
I was saddened by the reactions of many in the audience who were only there for other acts in the show like Dead Or Alive and The Damned and New Order. They were close-minded for "different" acts like Nico, who gave a professional performance despite the reaction of the ignorant philistines. I was only in my twenties but thought of them as stupid kids.
She still has her stage presence.... Which very few artists today have.... and what people are saying about her looks... She's laughing in the whatever's after this life. Cuz she hated her good looks and was proud that she wasn't as beautiful as she was when she modeled.
I don't think Nico hated her good looks, they opened a lot of doors for her. If she hated her beauty she wouldn't be wearing makeup here. She just didn't want to be dismissed because of it.
Oh yes, I remember that too now. It must have been a love/hate thing then, or perhaps she wanted to have a darker beauty rather than a blonde, ethereal one.
She was amazing. How could those idiots in the club talk while she was singing. Singing Velvet Underground no less. Reminds me of that Patty Pravo youtube of "Ragazzo Triste" where one stupid woman is too busy smoking to even turn around. Some people should just stay home.
it was obv her choice to take the drugs she did, so why worry about it? she was an amazing artist and definately shaped what we call rock and roll today. so maybe without the drugs we wouldnt be listening to what we are today... rip nico. YOU DA SHIT!
i remember meeting nico in Hulme in Manchester in a club called The Russel club (p.s.v),she was badly into the smack then and looked so rough,this was back in the 80,s,god bless her,never forgotten
I went to see her in a dive bar in the east Village, nyc. She was too out of it to perform, she walked off the stage and sat at the bar by were I was sitting. I asked her if she was ok, she tried to focus her eyes then put her head right back on the bar. Sad!! but I love Nico. RIP cool girl!
MAN she is the most amazing person ever to exist. Her power just like, radiates through my computer screen. But she looks a damn mess. It makes me sad to watch her in the last few years of her life, she looks awful. Heroin will do that to you. It's amazing how much she changed since her modeling days. She suffered, but we benefited from her amazing legacy. Man.
