  • very much in the same manner as Beethoven, Reed produced a body of work that allows for contemplations and self-reflection; both artisans take shape in the body of work they create

  • This is an awsome album...one of his best I think..

  • I justhad a friend damn near die at 32 years old of a brain tumor, the dr said it was his meth abuse, I said it is the dirty blvd

  • the two people who, as of this posting, "disliked" this video, were landlords with wet pants

  • Electric Shock Device

  • Noone dreams of being a doctor or a lawyer or anything, they just dream of dealing on the dirty boulevard. That's the epitaph for the American Dream. It's China's turn now.

  • sweet

  • 0:47 Michael Jackson stole the riff. FU

  • @Zombienomicon Michael jackson lying in the dirty boulevard for good.

  • New York-the city of dreams and despair. This song depicts the real America for a lot of people. despite all the misery, there is hope in the imagination, I believe Pedro does fly away--in some way or another. Lou Reed is boss.

  • @ribluesy

    WELL SAID BROTHER

  • @ribluesy

    The best description of this song!

  • @ribluesy My name is Pedro,don't worry,I flew away....

  • Awesome heartbreaking song that echoes with raw and truth to this day man. Love this jam. Purriod!

  • Mmm, mmm,mmm. Dat is Good.

  • GREAT!!!THANKS 4 POST..!!!

  • 1 person who like this video got stuck on the dirty boulevard

  • That's how to hit drums too !

  • love ya lou

  • aussie commercial radio used to play this music .Those were the good old days.

  • lou reed could record a double album of acoustic show tune covers and it would be the the greatest double album of acoustic show tune cover ever. incapable of making bad music

  • why is this justin bieber always mensioned?

    who is this guy anyway?

  • Brilliant song... NOTE to fellow fans: switching this video to 480p will produce much better sound quality for cranking loudly! Thanks for posting this great track.

  • Lou Reed is the best!

  • now this is music... not like justin beiber's songs

  • @keigerb19

    Please no jb talk here, even if it is with good intentions. :)

  • @vivemaker ok.......LOL! i forgot to subscribe..

  • @keigerb19 sure kicks the shit out of lady gaga too!

  • @hoosierdaddy3277

    GaGa is actually pretty cool.

  • @DeathBySitar That's the beauty of YouTube; there's something for everybody!

  • I wish Lou would get back on the smack. He's not awful solo, but the UV is just so far above most of his solo stuff......I mean assuming that Nico isn't singing.

  • @JLWing77 You are so right the UV's played such droney, druggie jams my wig was completely flipped

  • @iloveferkel

    His voice fit's the song. And what i like personal about Lou Reed is that his vocals are, in my opinion, humane. Maybe someday you will notice, like i did.

    :)

  • @iloveferkel

    it's cool, man, some people don't like lou reed - i don't want to hang out with them or anything, but they do exist

  • @iloveferkel

    Sorry about your comment, you obviously listened to the song without paying attention to the lyrics.

  • @iloveferkel it is honest, from the heart poetry. Not a pop song. Not for children. Not for you.

  • Tthe best among the best.

  • a really good story but a really bad singer (speaker;))

  • @iloveferkel sing it yourself - I'd love to hear it.

  • We have wrote a classtest about this song xD

  • Just a beautiful song

  • what the hell are all you thanking him for, pay for his shit and send him a money order in the mail

  • thank you so much for putting songs from new york on here! i've been waiting for this

  • Dont want to end up on the dirty blvd! But at least I'll have my guitar!!!!

  • theres a lot of dirty blvds out there

    its just a matter of which one you are on.

    great song.

  • Thank you vivemaker.... Thank you so much!

  • Listening to this again after so many years I can hear how Lou Reed's venture into perfomance poetry influenced his songwriting and, in my opinion, produced some of the greatest songs of his career. Love this album!

  • How can ya not like this song, So much fucking truth in it, I came from a place like that and I flew away and kept flying... The Mean Streets of Philadelphia is from where I hail.

  • best lp ever

  • bravissimo!!! propio una bella canzone!!

  • Such a memorable paradox created between upbeat gospel music, and perhaps the most tragic lyrics immaginable. One of my favourite songs and albums........can't beat that cover shot either.

  • Good to see people like this song!

  • Maureen "Moe" Tucker plays drums on 1 or 2 of the tracks on this album .

    GREAT song !

  • @dexamyl Yes, I believe she plays on "Last great American Whale".

  • AwEsOmE ! Psychedelic rock right?

  • I stumbled across this album at a time when I was discovering my own humanity and compassion. Thanks, Lou.

  • I was 16 when I bought this album and it was my first introduction to Lou Reed. After listening to him and Bruce Springsteen, I never looked at music the same way again.

  • and fly fly away

  • Blackfoot- Fly Away

  • Great song.

    

  • Love this song 1 of his best 

  • no one comment on this good song ?!! ... lou reed rocks
