WHITE LIGHT WHITE HEAT Waiting for the MAN Sister RAY

Candy Says

Haven't listened to that noise over a decade. And I guess I'll never will again.

My favourites were:

Sunday Morning Heroin

there She Goes Waiting For My Man Femme Fatale

Trying to remember what topped my poll on fave VU songs that I did a little over a year ago, from memory I think it was White Light/White Heat and Sweet Jane. I'll look it up after awhile.

Today's choices:

White Light/White Heat

I'm Set Free

Heroin

My memory was correct....

Peel slowly......

In a Pinch:

Sister Ray Waiting for The Man Foggy Notion

For you who like Waiting For My Man, there was a Vanessa Paradis version produced Lenny Kravitz

There She Goes Crimson and Clover Sunday Morning

I like the Bowie version on "Bowie at The Beeb", highly recommend it for the second disc (the first is kinda iffy "David is a folkie"-era material)

Heroin All Tomorrow's Parties I Heard Her Call My Name

I bought Loaded when I was 16 and hated it, only listened to it a couple times.

but I just got Velvet Underground & Nico and LOVE, LOVE LOVE it.

What would be the next best album to buy?

pale blue eyes(cant believe nobody listed this yet) heroin sunday morning

I'd have to give an honorable mention to Cool It Down, for the combining of two not quite identical, not quite simultaneous vocal tracks.

1. Sunday morning (really loud on Sunday mornings!)
2. Sweet jane
3. heroin

mmmm love velvets!

White Light/White Heat Sweet Jane All Tomorrow's Parties

Great thread! One of my favorite bands.

Top three Velvet covers (that I've heard, and what I can recall at this moment anyway)

Cowboy Junkies "Sweet Jane" Echo And The Bunnymen "Run Run Run" Cabaret Voltaire "Here She Comes Now"

Best non-VU song that might be better than some VU songs: "Slipping (Into Something) by The Feelies.

This evening I are mostly favouring:

1. Rock 'n' Roll
2. Temptation inside your Heart
3. Foggy Notion

Duran Duran did a cover of Femme Fatale which was pretty good if I recall.
