Lou Reed - The Power of the Heart (2008)

[jeffr333]

I like it too honeybunny

[HoneyBunny252]

i like it that this video has no dislikes...

[CricriAndZouzou]

It seems that there are people who don't know what tolerance is and don't like when others don't agree with them. Heart and Love are synonyms of acceptance of each others opinion and not insulting the one who doesn't agree with you.

@CricriAndZouzou You star

[goomer42]

Por supuesto la versión de Peter Gabriel. Of course Peter Gabriel version

[GaryG1960]

there must be some way out of here said the joker to the theif ! Sound like something?

[sid079]

@GaryG1960 yoop, sounds like Bob Dylan's All along the watchtower..

[Audioholics]

Peter Gabriel version of this song is simply amazing

IMO it kills Lou Reeds.

[piuspeto]

@Audioholics Lou Reed is a great lyricist, but Peter Gabriel is way better a singer.

[raga609]

Dear rochase1, I hope you will take this in the spirit intended. Please remember that Peter's version would not EXIST without Lou's vision and that Peter was INSPIRED by Lou to create his masterpiece

[rcchase1]

@raga609 that is quite true and I give Lou Reed total credit on this...the lyrics in particular are absolutely remarkable.

[x8z3]

I love this song. I'm a fan of Peter Gabriel but I much prefer Lou's version. It's raw and real. I song doesn't have to be polished and perfect to be powerful. Sometimes it's the oppositie. This is the sound of life's experiences. It comes from the heart.

[rcchase1]

This version sucks big time. I know he wrote it, so I give him credit. But seriously, this sounds horrible - like something William Shatner would sing. Peter Gabriel took it to a whole new level and Lou Reed's version just sounds awful by comparison.

[Richterscale]

@rcchase1 I think you're a bit overcritical. This is a rough version, for sure, but still powerful. But I do agree that Pete makes this song shine.

[MetalFingazDoom]

@rcchase1

you don't know shit about anything,if Lou saw you in real life he'd beat you down and piss all over your faggot face,when you diss Lou,you diss yourself motherfucker

[rcchase1]

@MetalFingazDoom you make me laugh. There are always idiots like you on youtube who have trouble expressing themselves like normal people and now you have joined their flock like an illiterate little sheep. I stand by my opinion. Sorry you feel so insecure and sensitive about Lou Reed and your own musical tastes.

[MetalFingazDoom]

@rcchase1

i don't care if you stand by your opinion,my opinion of you is that you're a pretentious zilch/piece of shit,understand?

[LittleItalyTV]

...Anche se credo questa sia la versione originale, credo che Peter Gabriel ne abbia catturata l'essenza in quella sua struggente versione.

E' comunque un capolavoro=Masterpiece!!!

[merrycenci]

@LittleItalyTV les due sono magnifiche a far drizzare i peli

[johngiuffrida]

Lou Reed BLOWS! Thank goodness Peter Gabriel came along and covered this version & elevated it to immortal.

[vindallo]

possibly best live artist ive ever seen.

[cosmicrider287]

was this song written in the berlin era?

[Topographer]

Peter Gabriel is doing a version of this on his next album!

[igorico]

And it's a masterpiece!!!

[AIAFHQ]

Gorgeous tune. Now one of my favorites by Lou. Anyone know if that is Laurie Anderson on violin there?
