C'mon... The Velvet Underground are/were amazing.

LOOOOOVE Velvet Underground. Loaded is one of the best albums EVER.

Fucking Rawsome. Lou Reed's Bong Water.

BonBon85 · January 30, 2003, 02:33:05 PM

Agreed.

I love VU, especially Velvet Underground & Nico and Loaded. I never could get into White Light/White Heat.

They are indeed excellent.

It`s been said that whilst the Velvet Underground were really obscure, everytime some-one heard them they started a band, and became big, making them one of the most influential acts ever.

"Sister Ray" is my favorite song ever.

The first time I listened to Heroin, I cried. So beautiful...

Love em to death....especially their semi-punk songs.

Sigur Rós · April 13, 2003, 03:51:50 AM

I'm not that mad about them! I'm more into Lou Reed's solo-stuff! Transformer

But maybe that's because I'm the worlds biggest Bowie fan!

My favorite is actually the double live album, Live MCMXCIII. It has all my favorite songs in one lovely set, and they sound fucking great. But other than that, Loaded would be my favorite. Such a collection of amazing tunes is...well, it's amazing.

I bought that album not because i expected to like it, but because it`s one of those albums you have to own. But it`s not as bad as i expected, if im in the right mood i sometimes stick it on, but i cant listen to it all the way through.

I think VU were great. Especially 'Loaded', which included one of my favorite songs of all time, "Sweet Jane'. VU & Nico is great as well, and as a tribue I have a print of that same Warhol hanging in my kitchen.

my favorite all-time band

The Velvet Underground
