I'm ignoring sirdroseph's comment, and wondering if maybe this version of the song has Lou Reed squirming in discomfort and adjusting his jeans. It's so sexy, slow and seductive...

And I did NOT just write that. *facepalm*

I'm on his side with this one.

Smooth. Haunting. Cool.

 

I love Lou Reed, but he is dead wrong!!!!! He is just being patronizing, this sucks!!{#Puke}

JUNKIES gee what do they mean here?

I dunno, I thought the orginal was down-tempo but this takes down-tempo to a new high... er... low... 

It's like a version of a heroin song that you can only listen to on downers and booze.

 
Any more laid-back and this song would be comatose. A lullaby from Snoozeville {#Sleep}

Agreed! As should all covers be, imo.

You sure don't understand.  This is one of the greatest covers of all time, hands down.
