This is much better with Beck singing. Not because it's Beck but because he "gets it". Just out of interest, why is this the alt version?

@simonsaintgilles Because that's what Beck calls it, and it was released after Record Club had already covered the other songs the album, making this one the "alt. version."

Great videos! You should put up "Waiting for My Man" and "Femme Fatale" because the only ones that are available are too long with no sound at the end. It would be greatly appreciated!

I never noticed that. I'll put them up sometime this week.

Is there any doubt that Beck continues to surprise and amaze, whether it's his own familiar music or doing something like this, notice he tends to do fine covers.

No one can do this song like Lou Reed and the rest of the Velvet Underground, that song is absolutely perfect, its beat and shift is just too unique to be replicated
