I will love this man forever, such a caring, knowledgable soul. I remember being at some useless corporate party and mu mate messaged me, from Glasgow, that he had just passed away. End of evening, end a big part in my life and I never met him. Such a regret, but thanks Lou, still in my heart.
John cale is no ordinary human being, he produced and helped nick drake. Now nick drake is another one of the greatest. So we can understand how great every individual on the stage is.
Superb version, Lou Reed seems really inspired on this title. Too bad we can not see Stirling Morrison, his guitar part is full of emotion, seems to him against a little distant in this concert. My regret not to have seen them during this epic revival tour Thanks for sharing.
Holy smokes ....this is heavenly.. every note in my frequency. Ty universe ....you give me what I need to heal... Music is medicine. ... I know. ..I have Parkinson's....this is how you cure it.
Michael McLoughlin This song has that feeling, I just don't want it to end. It reminds me of a Jagger & Richards song "The singer not the song" Listen to both songs & see if you get it.
This and Im Sticking With You live might of been as good or better than the original recordings. Lou is singing it like a country song, and added with Cale's beautiful violin playing and Sterling's true to the original guitar playing, its just a unique, interesting thing to see/hear.
"...singing it like a country song" is a very good observation. It's still enjoyable, but it wouldn't be the timeless classic that it is if the studio version had been like this. The delicate simplicity of the original melody is a little bit lost here.
I really do too... I got my first copy of the banana album in 1984 and its still my favourite... this version of the song really brings home how sad i feel that he is gone.. RIP lou
Indeed it is... I have a Pale blue tattoo tear on my right shoulder blade that I got when I was 17 years old. In Capel SR Dublin Ireland. My Grandmother and Grandfather, and also my Uncle ,oh and my Great Uncle. All have pail blue eyes. I loved Nico. Who also had pale blue eyes,...wow. they di longer on ❤
“I thought you were my mountain top I thought you were my peak I thought you were my everything That I had but could not keep” I thought I knew the song but had never registered those words till now. So good.
Masterpiece. Don't need complexity, don't need computers and processors. Just need a tamborine, a violine, a fender and a voice. And genious artists. These days they don't make these pieces anymore. Craftmenship is gone, geniousity is gone. Who said rock n roll will never die ? Well not sure about that anymore.
The song is so beautiful and given Cales viola and Morrison and Lous voice and the country style is a favourite. Good old 3/4 time. Get tearyeyed up all.
Guesing this whats you get when you cross backrounds of all of us in a performsnce of our own lives. Cale classical trained, Lou off and on the streets, all together, in this performance. "Hey it was it was good what we did yesteryday., in your pale blue eyes."
It brought precisely nothing and destroyed a very beautiful song all because he more interested in being self indulgent and refused to give the people who paid to see him what they wanted and for what? Just to be a difficult and a contrarian. Lou was a narcissist .
powerful music like this was meant to relief + console + help emotions+mental health . but most young people today dont want or make powerful music ; so they can only turn to their phones + alcohol drinks + restaurants + drugs for relief + consoling + mental help + emotional help + release .
@@theunrealtimemm No you can hear there is no bass on it. Hes playing the melody in the right channel lou is playing chords. Only thing holding the low end is Maureens kick drum. They didnt cut to Sterling probably because they didnt know who was playing what (non musicians lol).
Caro ragazzo dagli occhi colore del lago, Ho poche parole ma tanti sorrisi, mi piace sedermi ad ascoltare, e preparo caffè e biscotti a chi voglio bene. Ma non importa. Da qualunque angolazioni la guardi , il nocciolo del discorso resta lo stesso. Hai saputo ritrasformare il mio sorriso in un sorriso vero. E non è poco . Forse un giorno,ma un giorno molto lontano , Te lo dirò .
