seriously, I'm no huge Metallica fan by any means but they are pretty tight in the Jools video. Lou is way over matched. He's not even singing he's just reading the lyrics and talking over a Metallica song.
I don't even understand why Lou is some kind of legend. I never got into Velvet Underground, He wrote on classic (sweet jane) and has had mediocre success as a solo artist.
I'm sure I'm missing something some please post most Lou Reed videos to convert this skeptic.- Lou really deserves a full thread because you really are missing out. This is by no means typical of lou.CyBrainX

fooler, good to see that even after this, you still curious about lou. any artist/musician that has a long career will have big ups and big downs. what i like about him is that he always does something different. here are some favorite lou reed moments thorough the years:

i grew out of metallica a long time ago, and really don't listen to much velvet/lou these days either, but still enjoy it more than metallica.
but yeah, they each had good music ... separately. put the two together though and metallica is now butchering some classics (white light/white heat was great by velvet underground). so, it's no wonder that lou can't sing over the metallica version ... it's a butchered version.
i'm not putting any of them down, individually (except that lars shithead) ... this just plain stinks, that's all.and he only wrote one classic?
