Another song that’s new to me — a lot of the covers this month, from you and others, have been. It’s so interesting to hear this without having any idea what the original sounded like. I like the sort of open, spacey sound with the singsong vocals.
this is pretty close to the original. lou reed writes in a way that doesnt leave a lot of room for interpretation. what is missing on my version is john cales dynamic piano. check out the original https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxDYMOvUeyc the song is about andy warhol, the first song in their show, songs for drella, honoring the deceased producer of their legendary band, the velvet underground.
