‘Walk on the Wild Side.’

Walk On The Wild Side, Lou Reed

Have I done this one lately? Don’t care, it’s kind of peaceful. Kind of.

OK, the weather’s good enough for this.

Reminded by @vermontaigne:


Walk On The Wild Side, Lou Reed*

Well, you have to be in the right mental state for this song. It’s got to be about 2 AM or so; you sit by the window in a stark-lit room and listen to it while the wind rustles the leaves outside. So, it has to be a nice night out, see? November and you end up shivering. It’s a good song late at night; with it you end up halfway between thinking and brooding, and the melancholy’s just there to give a touch of flavor to the reminiscing. Just you, your thoughts, Lou Reed, and a cigarette…

(pause)

Oh, hell. (more…)
