I can't really say what his best song is, but "Wild Child" has always been a favourite of mine. There are some great observational details in the lyrics. Reed creates vivid portraits of people in this song. He captures the nature of his characters' everyday lives. The song has a catchy chorus too. It's a pity the performance of the backing band is a bit lifeless.

― Mark Dixon, Sunday, 11 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

"Walk on the Wild Side" OF COURSE, for obvious reasons.

― Daver, Sunday, 11 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Solo: Street Hassle or the Bells VU: I'll Be Your Mirror

― Manny Parsons, Sunday, 11 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

heroin or sweet jane.

― Yip!, Sunday, 11 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

"She's My Best Friend," both VU and solo - Coney Island Baby version preferred

― John Darnielle, Sunday, 11 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

"New Age" with alternate lyrics on VU live 1969. "Waiting for the phone to ring..."

― Mary, Sunday, 11 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Metal Machine Music 3

― Queen G of the 7 drops of oceanic semen, Monday, 12 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

'Do the Ostrich.' By The Primitives. Yeah yeah I'm just trying to be cool. But it's the song I wish I was listening to right now! I like the early Beatles too. And the introduction to an unreleased bootleg of a tape Rody Erikson never recorded.

― maryann, Monday, 12 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Any of those numbers on the Kiss concept album (Music From) The Elder. Just for the sheer what-the-fuck factor.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

"Foggy Notion"...you just can't play rhythm guitar like that without just putting your head down and watching your hands flail. The song is concentrated genius, mmm mm mmm.

― Matt Riedl (veal), Monday, 12 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll put in a word for THERE SHE GOES AGAIN / so simple, so FXtive, and it even has a cack-handed solo. And that invented tradition of intros (x (Stones??)--> Velvets --> Marr).

― the pinefox, Monday, 12 August 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

four months pass...

Kudos to Matt who mentioned Foggy Notion. All those jangly songs are the best rocknroll has produced. I would include What Goes On, especially the live version.

― what goes on, Wednesday, 18 December 2002 00:15 (twenty-three years ago)

Reed wrote "Femme Fatale", didn't he? If so, I'd have to say "Femme Fatale", because it reminds me of back when I was in college, and my band covered it, only we did it faster, and added a Noise Gismo (weird toy from the 70s, I think) solo.

― Helltime Producto (Pavlik), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 01:10 (twenty-three years ago)

"Perfect Day" because I'm a big softy.

― dan (dan), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 01:52 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll second Street Hassle because it is a perfect song.

― A Nairn (moretap), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 02:08 (twenty-three years ago)

"After Hours" or "Sunday Morning"

― Joe (Joe), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 02:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Good call for "Sweet Jane". When the ragged middle 8 comes in - "Anyone who had a heart / shouldn't turn around and break it . . ." absolute genius!

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:06 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm with Yip on the Sweet Jane and Herion thing - they both very pretty songs.

― toraneko (toraneko), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:27 (twenty-three years ago)

With VU: Pale Blue Eyes
Solo: Satellite Of Love or I Love You, Suzanne

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 14:30 (twenty-three years ago)

with VU it's a struggle between What Goes On, Pale Blue Eyes and All Tomorrow's Parties...

solo, hmmm, I would like to pick one of my favorite Reed album, Berlin, but those songs are great in the context of the whole album, picking one single song out of it would deminish it's impact. Therefor: Street Hassle.

― willem (willem), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 15:26 (twenty-three years ago)

Metal Machine Music, side 2.

Just kidding.

I like "Waiting for the Man" and "What Goes On" and uh shit I forget the name of the song on the third VU album that talks about "put jelly on your shoulder" fuck it 'cause I like that one a lot too and of course "Sweet Sister Ray" but I'm not so big on his solo stuff aside from Transformer and on that I'd probably rate "Vicious" or "Andy's Chest."

Time for more coffee.

VU - "What Goes On"
Lou - Coney Island Baby or Street Hassle

― dave225 (Dave225), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 16:00 (twenty-three years ago)

'Heroin' is a great song. Direct. Covers the subject very well. Ebbs and flows beautifully. "I guess ... that I just don't know."

― James Ball (James Ball), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 16:12 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll double John Darnielle's vote for She's My Best Friend with a solid tip to Coney Island Baby. As for VU, i'l have to name a couple; Temptation Inside Your Heart and Ride into the Sun.

― christoff (christoff), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 17:40 (twenty-three years ago)

i shouldn't get started on this, mayhaps, for every fkn time somebody asks for smth positive to be said 'bout ol' Lou, the very first thing to escape my mouth is invariably voluminous praise of John Cale, followed by - "compared to Cale, Lou is one deluded,conceited, miserable mofukka"

A*RIGHT! not that i 'avent any good thoughts on Lou, mind:

"Pale Blue Eyes" is just one of the many great songs of the Velvety period,
and quite a few on "Drella" more than just hold up,
and yes, the Berlin alb as a whole is very good.

but i've never given a tiniest toss 'bout the friggin' "Walk on the Wild Side"

― t\'\'t (t''t), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 20:25 (twenty-three years ago)

what 'bout the sax solo and backin' vocals?

― A Nairn (moretap), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 21:08 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll second after hours. I love the "Caroline/candy/were there more? says" songs too.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Thursday, 19 December 2002 00:15 (twenty-three years ago)

Aside from Caroline and Candy, there was also Lisa.

― Sean (Sean), Thursday, 19 December 2002 00:20 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh, I didn't know Lou Reed wrote "For All Tomorrow's Parties" - that a good one too but I think Heroin is the best.

― toraneko (toraneko), Thursday, 19 December 2002 01:05 (twenty-three years ago)

"I'm Waiting For The Man" for Velvets, I like the economy of the wording. Conversely I pick "Wild Child" for solo Reed, cause of the great lyrical details.

― Poppy (poppy), Thursday, 19 December 2002 02:47 (twenty-three years ago)

one year passes...

I think New York is full of magnificent songs that stands up as a whole.
Almost as awesome as Berlin.

― Chris K, Friday, 19 November 2004 03:27 (twenty-one years ago)

There is also a song called "Stephanie Says", I think, maybe from VU days - nice version.

"I wanna play footbal for the coach" on Coney Island Baby is pretty good too.

Don't wast your money on The Raven or Machine Music - unless your a hard core collector.

― Chris K, Friday, 19 November 2004 03:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Ride Into The Sun

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 19 November 2004 03:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Coney Island Baby fourthed. So dreamy, poetic, truthful. It inspired me to play a hundred songs in this fashion.

― jim wentworth (wench), Friday, 19 November 2004 04:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I really love "Beginning to See the Light" and "SOme Kinda Love"

― Seuss, Friday, 19 November 2004 08:22 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm gonna wave a little flag for "Candy Says".

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Friday, 19 November 2004 08:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Damn this is tuff. Until I have more time to think about it I'm going to go with the live version of Waiting For My Man off Take No Prisoners, even though I realize there's a lot more comedy and weirdness than song-ness per se.

― Bimble (bimble), Friday, 19 November 2004 08:46 (twenty-one years ago)

I agree, God, this is such a tough call.

So many of the great VU songs have a group writing credit that I don't know if they really count; my copies of "Loaded" and "VU" don't say who specifically wrote "Temptation Inside Your Heart" or "Cool It Down" or "Hey Mr. Rain". So I dunno if they go to Lou or not. But they are fabulous songs, and don't get their due I think because the chestnuts are "Sunday Morning" and "Femme Fatale".

"Street Hassle" to thread, for sure.

If we're picking "Metal Machine Music", (and we should), then it's all about side four: the locked groove, people!

― Drew Daniel (Drew Daniel), Friday, 19 November 2004 08:48 (twenty-one years ago)

; my copies of "Loaded" and "VU" don't say who specifically wrote "Temptation Inside Your Heart" or "Cool It Down" or "Hey Mr. Rain".

I think they're all Lou.

― My Son Calls Another Man Dadaismus (Dada), Friday, 19 November 2004 09:54 (twenty-one years ago)

VU: What Goes On
solo: How Do You Think It Feels

― Jonathan Z. (Joanthan Z.), Friday, 19 November 2004 10:13 (twenty-one years ago)

I Love You, Suzanne.

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 19 November 2004 10:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Lou is easily my favourite songwriter so I couldn't pick one..... but "Lisa Says" is one deserving of praise but often overlooked... ditto "I Love You"... "All Through the Night"... there's far too many to mention!

― My Son Calls Another Man Dadaismus (Dada), Friday, 19 November 2004 10:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I Love YOU, Suzanne.
I mean that,

― LSTD (answer) (sexyDancer), Friday, 19 November 2004 10:36 (twenty-one years ago)

No, I love YOU, Suzanne.

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 19 November 2004 10:39 (twenty-one years ago)

"Street Hassle" is amazing. I can't pick a VU fave though!

― haitch haitch haitch (or any three repetitive sounds) (haitch), Friday, 19 November 2004 13:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I like the pretty ones; and since I can't choose between "Candy Says" and "Lisa Says" and "Stephanie Says", I'll go with "I'll Be Your Mirror". All Velvets songs, o'course - I don't give a damn about solo Lou aside from Metal Machine Music

― Myonga Von Bontee (Myonga Von Bontee), Friday, 19 November 2004 14:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Sweet Jane and Romeo and Juliette

― Onzong Lee, Friday, 19 November 2004 14:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Satellite of Love. I don't think there's a prettier song in my music collection.

― seedy poops in the woods (Queen Electric Butt Prober BZZ), Friday, 19 November 2004 17:06 (twenty-one years ago)

No love for "Rock and Roll"? Despite all the comp-u-ta-tions you know you could just dance to a rock-n-roll station. What could be better than that?

― BrianB (BrianB), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, I dunno, it's probably really "Femme Fatale." In that it's a song you can do any number of ways. "Pale Blue Eyes" same, they're Klassiks of American Songwriting. They're such Songs 101 songs, simple, very my-first-song-I-ever-learned-on-guitar. Kids should learn them early along with "Row Row the Boat" and "Happy Birthday." Lou Reed leaves no child behind and all that.

But maybe "Sweet Jane," which after all is his best riff and his best-known song after "Walk on the Wild Side," which is a great RECORD and it's a song too, absolutely. "Rock and Roll" is another good one to cover. "Head Held High" is a good basic one. "Wild Child" and "Satellite" I heard last night for the first time in a L.T. and they're good ones too. His later stuff, I don't consider "New Sensations" a "song" in the same way as "Pale Blue" but it's good, real good, as is most of that album. "Don't Talk to Me About Work" is a good one. After that, I never heard most of it, I did get "The Raven" for my birthday last year and I have listened to it. But Lou, he's pathetic now.

― eddie hurt (ddduncan), Friday, 19 November 2004 23:34 (twenty-one years ago)

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 19 November 2004 23:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes, absolutely Lisa Says! Damn I should have thought of that one first. okthanxbye.

― Bimble (bimble), Saturday, 20 November 2004 14:33 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean the live 1969 version, of course.

― Bimble (bimble), Saturday, 20 November 2004 14:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Bimble, that is a GREAT version! I remember long ago being a teenager one Saturday walking into a record store up on Broadway near Columbia University where they were playing that and thinking: what they heck is this?

I'm too big a fan to pick one, but I like eddie's rundown up above. If I have to pick, almost anything from the first album, but obviously here the John Cale influence is very strong. I guess I'll go with that "song about love between man and subway," Waiting for the Man. For a good analysis of this song, see a Robert Quine interview at the old Perfect Sound Forever.

― Ken L (Ken L), Saturday, 20 November 2004 15:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean those 4 albums are all great, the VU stuff. I've grown to like "Run Run Run" and "European Son" and the weird stuff on the second album like "Brother Ray" and "The Gift." Those are the things I go back to now, I'm kind of over the third album just like I'm over the Beatles. Some of the things on those two VU outtake albums are great too, always liked "Ferryboat Bill." "Beginning to See the Light" is a good candidate for Greatest Song He Wrote too. I guess enough people have heard those first 3 albums to make them alive in the popular consciousness, but it's gonna be "Sweet Jane" and "Walk on the Wild Side" that America will fondly look back on when it's said and done.

― eddie hurt (ddduncan), Saturday, 20 November 2004 17:32 (twenty-one years ago)

If you play a Strokes fan "Coney Island Steeplechase" you can fool them into thinking it's an unreleased Strokes B-side.

Best songs to me are the ballads: Pale Blue Eyes, Femme Fatale, Mirror....although among his latest songs I'd say the song is Baton Rouge.

― shookout (shookout), Saturday, 20 November 2004 17:39 (twenty-one years ago)

one year passes...

With the Velvets: Changes daily. Listening to "Foggy Notion" now. The version of "Ride into the Sun" from the Quine tapes makes me quite happy. I'll also second "Stephanie Says" and nominate "Hey Mr. Rain" (particularily the second version) for the most unfairly overlooked VU song.
Solo: The first three albums on the whole are quintessential.

Should be a POV, at least... torn between "Venus In Furs" and "Pale Blue Eyes".

"Thought of you as my mountaintop / Thought of you as my peak / Thought of you as everything / I had but couldn't keep" is a hall of fame lyric.

― Edward III (edward iii), Monday, 18 September 2006 14:24 (nineteen years ago)

Definitely "Rock and Roll," with "Perfect Day" not far behind.

A bit of a 'Everybody Hurts' sentiment going on, but then, I love grand sweeping gestures.

Man, what an impossible question. But at least sentimentally I guess I always come back to "I Love You" (where I think he might be being sincerely loving) and "Perfect Day" (where I'm pretty sure he's being deeply biting). . . "The Bed" really cripples me, and "Street Hassle" always wows me, too.

I love that line in “My House” —

I really got a lucky life

— and particularly how the “life/wife” rhyme echoes the long-ago rhyme in “Heroin” (in a very different context).
