This song gives me hope,try listening to it six times and tell me you don't shed a tear.This song should be played over and over to people in a coma,I THINK IT PULL THEM BACK.
Im not sure I would get as carried away as the guys with the top comments over this song... but it did help while attempting to get over a divorce many years ago.
seriously people will look at this comment and laugh and think its untrue but this Song and Lou Reed Saved me from myself and taking my life..thank you Velvet
@IdaGno it wasn't a monster hit because it was UNDERGROUND music,. hence the name... duh and the 60's were not f'd up, they were relevant and brought about change, hey we didn't march for naught!! get a clue Pull eaze
I started listening to The Velvet Underground after we’d been touring in North America and Canada. When I was in Canada I went to see a friend and she was crazy about The Velvet Underground, as only Velvet Underground fans are. So I started listening then and loved it. 'Pale Blue Eyes' is just an incredible song. It’s so emotional, so wretched in how heartbroken it is. It’s beautiful. Andrea x
i love the velvet underground music, especially this song, there she goes again and after hours. there music is kind of haunting in a way, but kind of folk like, but i like most of the sixties music.
@ladymarchica Whatever, I'm not arguing...just sayin'. People can (as far as I'm concerned) freely talk and discuss whether they like or dislike any of the songs and videos I post,it's their opinion. As for me, I just hate when a miserable troll comes and fucks around just for kicks that's all. Cheers and thanks for the comment.
This is a beautiful and touching and heart rending song. A standard of excellence in composition of lyrics, music and of how well it is sung and played has made it a oft covered song, but this remains the first and best version. Alejandro Escovedo does an amazing performance of this live and a studio cut, but this is my favorite. I am glad that it lives on in other versions as that means that it is for the ages to appreciate. :)
I can only listen to this song once in a blue moon - cuz, like no other song, it rips out my guts & I bawl like a little like a lil girl, (Im an old man & it did it to me the 1st time too)
Yep, Lou can fall in love just like the rest of us, and express it in his music as well as the pain. He takes us through the trip with him, feeling all the feelings etc. A true wordsmith, genius etc etc.
This makes me think of a pretty girl who's got sooo beautiful eyes... And moreover her eyes are actually pale blue, even grey... I love her! And the song too!
god this makes me cry everytime; saying this song is great just doesnt do it justice. Sometimes there arent words for the way you are feeling; this is one of those times;)
2 If I could make the world as pure and strange as what I see, I'd put you in the mirror, I put in front of me. I put in front of me. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Skip a life completely. Stuff it in a cup. She said, Money is like us in time, It lies, but can't stand up. Down for you is up." Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
1 Sometimes I feel so happy, Sometimes I feel so sad. Sometimes I feel so happy, But mostly you just make me mad. Baby, you just make me mad. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Thought of you as my mountain top, Thought of you as my peak. Thought of you as everything, I've had but couldn't keep. I've had but couldn't keep. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
This is my first time hearing this song, and let me tell you that i am in love

Also myself...

Played it at Jamies (my sons) funeral.....
I wonder just how many of those there would have understood anything.....

It was good what we did yesterday.
And I'd do it once again.
The fact that you are married,
Only proves, you're my best friend.
But it's truly, truly a sin.
