Cool mix

Venus by Television is such a great song,makes me wonder why no one covers it Father To A Sister Of Thought by Pavement is one of the best songs off of Wowee Zowee I think.Heroin by the VU is one of the best songs ever written,it`s more about a story of a drug addict,it`s how he sees himself in the world and "politicians making vicious sounds and all the dead bodies piled up in mounds" is not a dated lyric.

Yeah, that song has such an extreme power, both in terms of the melody and lyrics. I have the most wonderfull VU bootleg(Le Bataclan 72,) with their(Reed, Cale, Nico) last performance together + some rehearsals. Their performance of Heroin is perhaps the most spinechilling 7 minutes and 17 seconds that’s ever been captured on tape.
I’ve always dreamt of a "Hand It Over era" cover of Heroin.

….probably because it’s such a great song , can’t imagine anyone doing a better version of it…..

True. BUT, when has that stopped people from trying?

…Unfortunately that attitude has resulted in atrocities like Britney Spears covering Pat Benatar’s "I love rock’n’roll", and Limp Bizkit ruining the Who’s "Behind blue eyes" , some songs are better left untouched……
