Paz Lenchantin Live at McCabe's 11-9-2014 Tropic of Cancer Tribute Venus in Furs written by: Lou Reed Video Camera & Editing by Wayne Griffith & Sam Epstein
I just went down the Velvet Underground rabbit hole for the first time today and ended up here. This song is brilliant, haunting, and unforgettable. Velvet Underground was before my time, but it's better that I found them late than not at all. And this cover is more magical than the original! Paz Lenchantin, where have you been all my life??? You're brilliant!
This is probably the best cover of this song ever. She's able to make a very different version of the song but keeping the same mood, or even wilder! Love the passion in her voice. Brilliant!
Once I start listening to this absolutely magical cover it's unbelievably hard not to push the repeat button again and again. It's just THAT good. Sorry to TVU, but the original song (however iconic and impactful it is, I know, I know) simply doesn't have what Paz has.
I was huge APC fan when they debuted, and holy crap I loved Paz! In my opinion she was easily the sexiest of any of the female rock bassists (d'arcy of SP, melissa from hole, rayna coal chamber, sean yseult from white zombie..sooo many!) but yeah Paz is at the top of that list. She's just got this.. swagger, this sensuality when she plays, it's hypnotic! Plus I guess I'm a sucker for a beautiful latina... Love you Paz!
What maestria ! A true artist deploying art and soul like we too rarely find and see nowadays. In a way, I regret not knowing about her before tonight, but I feel as an amazing grace that it’s been given to me in a time of fabrication of music/songs in [capitalistic commercial] chains. Her interpretation is as great as by John Cale. Envoûtante 💜🖤💜
I have seen this probably 50 times and it's so perfect. It truly makes me happy everytime. Paz - you are the fucking best! Buying you a Pabst in NYC was one of the best memories I can recall.
@@dasuberholics Sí, de todos lados. Como el 80% de la población argentina. Lo que queria destacar es la calidad/talento de músicos que tenemos en el país y que no le damos el apoyo y repercusión que se merecen.
Paz plus looper and phenomenal musicianship!!! Absolutely love Paz , amazing in Pixies, fabulous in Zwan and in A Perfect Circle. What a perfect STAR !!!❤️🤘🌹XXX
Not a love story: Always had a fascination with this song! I was about 7 the first time I got a listen. I did not understand the lyrics, but this made me realize how melody could strike feeling and curiosity! love this version!
2 things 1st thing this is the best cover by someone who isn’t in the band 2nd she has somekind of aura about her that makes this performance absolutely mesmerising! Excellento!!! :-)
Polly on guitar, Paz on bass, and Janet Weiss of Sleater Kinney and Quasi on drums. Polly and Paz can both play strings when needed. That would kick ass.
Wow, great idea Xenia, I love PJ,but have just discovered Paz,I was due to see her last summer w pixies but covid put paid to that, reschedule d for next year tho.
It's just amazing the magical sounds that one person can create. Did not know Paz before but I'm going to know her now. Love this, going to listen a few more times. Enjoy mates.
That whole thing was strangely beautiful and visceral and hypnotic; but it was the silver necklace that got me in the end. It was just dancing there around Paz's neck, through the whole weird video. I admit it. I was like a crow to a shiny thing. I was riveted by it and could not pull my attention from it once I noticed it... (sigh) ...
Had to check out Paz Lenhantin, after a interview with Band-Maid, whereby bassist Misa said Paz was her favorite bass player. Paz reminds me of Patti Smith:)
