Nico - Janitor of Lunacy (Peel '74)

An unreleased "Janitor of Lunacy" from Nico's 1974 Peel Session (not the '71 session that was released in the late '80s). The video, here largely on a may-as-well basis, is Psychic TV's "Godstar" video, backwards, slower, and a trifle more monochromatic.

absolutely stunning, music and video.  Discovered this song via Bjork's list of favorite albums gathered by Alex Ross. Fantastic.

@Intergalaxy I know that "Abschied" was made for Brian Jones.... but this one, I'm not so sure. I think the lyrics "don't fit"... ;-) Anyway, this is an amazing song!!!

@RockNimbie

Yes!

Part of the confusion over the words here is due to the fact that the German word she would have used is "hausmeister" which obviously implies a different cultural meaning.

@Intergalaxy Are you sure? I know that "Abschied" ("Farewell") was dedicated to Brian; but this... I can't believe that this song was written about Jones. "Janitor of lunacy", "Janitor of tyranny"... Is this about Brian?)

PS. Sorry my English, I know it's really bad :)
