Lou Reed with Suzanne Vega on 120 Minutes (1986)

[@helple55]

you know lou likes you when he takes his sunglasses off before starting to talk to you.

[@clc-gl4jn]

Lol right. He was crushin’ on her...

[@christy7698]

Yep. You can see it in his eyes!

[@ezakustam]

Contrary to how you usually see him, he's very gentle with her here. I respect that. Arguably the best show about music ever on television. I really miss it.

[@chriseliothernandez]

I love her

[@krisscanlon4051]

Speechless...this era,interview,and show are gone...miss this type of low key production...legends. Old folky Lou enjoying Vega

[@rmartin7558]

Suzanne Vega was adorable. I love how she crosses her legs and rests her chin on her hand at the end.

[@riverforest2997]

Cute how Vega is so in awe of Reed she can barely think. That would be me too in her presence.

[@wysiwyg2489]

She said many times that Berlin was the album that inspired her to be a professional musician.

[@honeycatacomb1191]

Lou Reed aknowlaging the cure? My life is complete!!

[@zaihiraray]

Absolutely devastated to hear of Lou Reed's death. He made the world a more bearable place through his poetry, music and art of being an original Rock/Life wordsmith

[@misterhankey5547]

In another interview, Suzanne Vega said the first concert she ever attended because a friend dragged her to it was a 1979 Lou Reed concert. That must be weird to have the legend interview her just 7 years later.

[@TheSuzyV]

It was

[@hugovalenzuela5992]

[@YourMadTourGuide]

Wow! What a kick ass blast from the past

[@jamesgretsch4894]

She was really cute and adorable back then.

[@lewiespearman]

better interviewer than interviewee....vega was a cutey pie..

[@miyukishijisha8540]

In my opinion Suzanne is very beautiful, sleepy eyes and most cute nose.

[@alvesmonteiro5022]

Ate Sempre Lou

Look how cool they are. Lou and Suzanne are the definition of cool

[@gillesbourgeois5348]

Lou could behave like a gentleman, nice! and what else?

[@SDCLFC1]

Some off the cuff history for anyone stumbling across this (I was looking for Susan Vega). In 1985 Agents working on orders from the French government bombed the Rainbow Warrior while it was docked in Auckland harbour resulting in the death of one person. NZ police captured to the two French agents. Prime Minister at the time David Lange is heralded for the way he stood-up to US diplomatic pressure in the 80s and refused entry into New Zealand waters of US Nuclear powered vessels, however...

RIP and Godspeed Mr Reed Rock In Paradise!

[@TruNordics14]

Yes I remember when MTV was legitimate.

[@JonathanNelsonOfficial]

It was everything for about 7 years there.

[@philipgroves7309]

Suzanne Vega was so sweet even Lou had to be nice to her. But it really isa nice moment.

[@John-wu2mn]

Suzanne is a little star struck...

[@samspade5824]

Cute.

[@cuerollen]

I think the beginning gave ma a flashback...

[@mrxigunmaromba5428]

classic

[@leesherman5192]

It's the Master from the "Doctor Who" movie!

[@SDCLFC1]

...later in life he put on record his great disappointment at having yielded to the French government's request by handing over the two agents. This is the incident Lou is referring to.

[@DianaDahl]

:))) Lou

[@НикитаНикита-ь1в3ъ]

Hello. Suzanne Vega orientated on L. Reed when she has been young girl right. Right? Alright. That's right way. I readed in books that some garage musics creates so mudic: guitar, drums snd bass guitar snd donetines piano. Because music rock snd country is very lijedt more than just guitar. My English is poor. Excuse Me Thanks:-)

[@donccarlos9794]

your English is actually non existent ! but I love it ,,, lolll

[@Amuseddaysleeper]

She reminds me of Kate McKinnon

[@randallgoeswhere]

Im pretty sure theyre on acid right now.

[@mondoenterprises6710]

Awkward! But sweet. You could tell Lou really liked her.

[@mushmorant9253]

She didn't know what Greenpeace was about in 1986? Duh!

[@tuskedbeast]

She says she was thrown because she didn't know her interviewer would be Reed; she found out right before she went on. She was starstruck.

Lou Reed is overrated

@@II-xl7lj I bet he never makes it in rotation when you listen to music by yourself...people who listen to Lou Reed only do so in front of other people because they want to be perceived as someone who listens to Lou Reed.
