Couldn't find this version on RU-vid, so here you are. Music taken from Lou Reed's «Rock and Roll Diary 1967-1980». No copyright infringement intended.
@@danniel766 Can only listen to the albums, there’s no video. Their 1969 double live album (with the girl in skirt on cover). It from multiple convert dates though. And there’s also the Matrix tapes that were released that have some of the songs but with better audio quality.
Edie appeared in Vogue in August 1965 as a "youthquaker," as well as a fashion layout for Life magazine in the September 1965 issue. On February 13, 1966, Edie (along with Warhol and Wein) were photographed for The New York Times Magazine. In 1966, Andy Warhol approached his musical "discovery" Lou Reed with a proposition. According to Reed, "Andy said I should write a song about Edie Sedgwick. I said 'Like what?' and he said, 'Oh, don't you think she's a femme fatale, Lou?' So I wrote 'Femme Fatale'.
Very raw. Includes riffs similar to some in "Heroin". Could not appreciate the humor and laghter considering the early demise of Edie Sedgwick. Nevertheless powerful.
If I look for lyrics I see "your number 37 have a look". If I listen to this song written by Lou Reed I do hear 47? If I listen to the versions performed by Propaganda (Claudia Brücken) I do hear 67? All numbers (37, 47 and 67) are prime!
well let's be honest - it's awful if you ever heard how poets reads their own verses - quite similar feeling. Leave performing songs for singers, reading poems for actors. With all due respect to Lou Reed, he is not a singer, great author, appreciate that. No doubt the song is pure gem
