  • God, I am pitching a tent over an image of a woman 44 years in the past. Talk about unrequeited LUST!!! I love this song. It just sounds so....EPIC...so bigger than life!!! Taken individually, this song sucks---the weak piano playing, Nico's atonal singing, the elementrary guitar playing would be instantly dismissed. BUT, together, the cacaphony of sound sounds so MAJESTIC!!! IIt kills me that I can not have her. If I wanted that kind of self abuse, I'd...I'd...I''d ooops; Nevermind!!!

  • The song is a sonic masterpiece by the ethereal Nico!

  • Once,in Paris, maybe in 74 , I saw her in a church. It was at a concert with Terry Riley, with a reduced public. Has the interval, I took a walk in the church and I came face to face with Nico behind the altar . She was smoking a cigarette and I was petrified . She looked at me ... Then I became a worm... A little , little worm , watching a star !

  • A long time ago, when I was a barkeeper, I had to clean the bar in the morning.before opening. This song helped me through that process and sounded repeatedly for almost an hour. And even now, some 30 years later, I have to listen to this song at least 2 or 3 times in a row...Thnx Nico for this lovely peace of art!!!!!!

  • I believe this was Andy Walhol's favourite Velvets song. Mine too. Perfection. And Nico......well, what can you say ? A goddess !

  • she is beauty¡¡¡¡

  • beautiful

    

  • Watch NICO ICON to see what she really thought of all this beauty. Andy has to be thanked too. He made the VU put her in front. Art meets music meets reality TV. Art is anything you can get away with--AW.

  • Essa música é d+!

    Thanks for sharing. RIP Nico!!!
