RIP LOU REED – Rock-N-Roll Animal Machine

Lou Reed Rock-n-Roll

RIP: Dead at 71 Mr. Lou Reed was an idle to the nyc art scene and beyond. Somewhere in heaven he’s telling a band they suck and all we have left is David Bowie, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger. They were from an era of music that was so original that we will never see or hear such a thing ever again. Andy Warhol’s magic and vision catapulted this other wise coffee house bound band into our collect unconsciousness not just in America but all over the world. NYC as the center of universe for many and if you never ever listened to the velvet underground you already know the music was as pure as the purest gold. Dirty but with a sparkle of magic glossed over it because in essence Lou Reed was what huge part of what defined cool for many of us that can whip out a The Velvet Underground cover at the flip of a dime.

Lyrics “ROCK & ROLL” by Lou Reed

Jenny said, when she was just five years old
you know there’s nothin’ happening at all
Every time she put on the radio
there was nothin’ goin’ down at all
not at all

One fine mornin’, she puts on a New York station
and she couldn’t believe what she heard at all
She started dancin’ to that fine-fine-fine-fine music
ooohhh, her life was saved by rock ‘n’ roll
hey baby, rock ‘n’ roll

Despite all the amputation
you could dance to a rock ‘n’ roll station
And it was all right
it was all right
hey babe

Jenny said, when she was just five years old
you know there’s nothin’ happening at all
Two TV sets, two Cadillac cars
ahhh, hey, ain’t help me nothin’ at all
not at all

One fine morning, she heard on a New York station
she couldn’t believe what she heard at all
not at all

Despite the amputation
you could dance to a rock ‘n’ roll station
It was all right
it was all right
oh, now here she comes now-now

Jenny said, when she was just five years old
you know there’s nothin’ happening at all
Yeah, every time she put on the radio
there was nothin’ goin’ down at all
not at all

Then one fine morning, she put on a New York station
and she couldn’t believe what she heard at all
She started dancing to that fine-fine music
ahh, her life was saved by rock ‘n’ roll
rock ‘n’ roll

Despite all the amputation
you could dance to the rock ‘n’ roll station

It’s all right, all right
all right, all right
All right, it’s all right
all right, all right
Baby, baby
baby, baby, ooohhh
