[@MarkHarringtonAlembicLynx]

i grew up with it visiting the NY clubs when he and Nico were the Velvet Underground ..and the Banana Album seeing them at Electric Circus in NYC and ( the original ) Boston Tea Party Rock Club on East Berkley St in the old Masonic Temple in Boston in 68

[@ariari4133]

2)00%

[@FuegoPazzo]

I love the differences in timing of the lyrics between practically every incarnation of this song.

[@cooper512]

I think that's true with whatever song lou Reed is singing haha

[@harolddutton3772]

RIP Robert Quine, Wow.

[@osmiumhouse6510]

One of the best to ever do it

[@scooter2377]

Quine only one of him

[@johnstroh5897]

50 years and still a classic!

[@Zaxarian]

I think this is the best song about addiction ever written the description of waiting to score is so accurate

[@chuckcookus]

A man's love for a controlled substance

[@igorsamora5010]

This song is amazing in any version

[@johnstroh5897]

5 decades down the road and I’m still waiting for my man. Lou was unique and he may well be the man!

[@tonycostanzo4276]

he was ahead of his time ,they nailed this song down to perfection

[@NorthernMike]

Look up the recent cover that Keith Richards did of this tune. Phenomenal!

[@joecozzi1365]

yup!

[@stevelauda5435]

Indeed very cool!, why did it takexKieth so long??!!!!

[@davidmclachlan6592]

Yep it's good, but not as good as the David Bowie / Mick Ronson version from 1972.

[@NorthernMike]

@@davidmclachlan6592 I respectfully disagree

[@davidmclachlan6592]

@@NorthernMike ...... without the early Bowie version very few people would have acknowledged this song, I find it interesting that Keith Richards covers it now that both Lou Reed and David Bowie are no longer with us .

[@johnstroh5897]

Has anybody else ever smoke a fat joint while listening to Lou,? I highly recommend it!

[@CTheRevillusionS]

haven’t tried yet but i think i might just have to now

[@Milla_Anaellé]

You should try heroin and listening to uncle Lou ;)))

[@jonstoll7622]

doing it as we speak

[@Acarrdi]

Many high times.

[@davidrasmussen5697]

Fantastic recommendation.

[@JLNEWS]

Uncle Lou is gonna work it out

[@johngibbon6552]

seen em all but this guy was the best songwriter in the world back then, love john

[@bobswabski3590]

Lou Reed is the best.

[@johnstroh5897]

I remembah quite well. College dorm room, a couple good friends, spend the afternoon smoking reefer and listening to classic 70’ music like Lou. The good old days!

[@michaelvolgare4454]

RIP Robert Quine one of best ever..........

[@joefriedman9843]

He's crushing here

[@scooter2377]

Best ever saw this tour !

[@TheNeverposts]

shooting first and asking questions later on this tour. F*cking killing it

[@dianasolberg3328]

I remember seeing Lou reed and Dr. John at a Halloween concert in Milwaukee..1972. It was surrealistic

[@dianecristina3319]

Just saw B.J.Green get slammed in the neck by a Bull and thought of this song.

[@user-th3ll8rl7i]

Lou looks good here. Strong and confident. He turned dross into gold. I'll always remember him and his music.

[@keelangibson6902]

LOU!!!!!!!

[@JenniferSteel]

It's just a song. And I love it.

[@luvittodeath7031]

It’s only rock and roll

[@DeD00RS]

Start me up

[@jring3058]

It's always the right time to listen to a classic Lou Reed tune. The live versions always have a pleasant twist from the studio recording. GO GO GO LOU. RIP

[@andrewarthurmatthews9990]

Fantastic band

[@anandvriksha2798]

this version sounds clean... i like it

[@brunooliver7433]

Pure rock n'roll with attitude and lyrics

[@bradimandt3271]

He’s never early he’s always late- first thing you learn is that you always gotta wait….. (ain’t that the truth)

[@lindjohn5141]

[@johnstroh5897]

I remembah it quite well from the mid 70’s

[@mirandac8712]

The day this guy went, NYC went with him.

[@dennisscott2516]

“First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait” Only those that know - can understand this lyric .

[@eargasm1072]

How true this lyric is!!

[@heywoodjablowme8836]

Never early.... Always late

[@johnwilliams-dg6qx]

Lol yeah some things never change

[@johnstroh5897]

Lou was the man!

[@joemysterymusic]

Great version of the song. Very funky. Love the cut with Hunter and Wagner best but this is very cool, LR is the bomb RIP

[@OlYables]

Like if Talking Heads did it.

[@charlescasey9799]

Rock and roll reed He could rock yeh

[@lukakrajina9192]

Incontournable!!!

[@johnstroh5897]

Uncle Lou will work it all out!

[@vinylv48]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOU

[@johnstroh5897]

I remembah it very well

[@zizoumonk10]

Even though the chords and rhythm are simple, this is a deceptively difficult song to play and sing at the same time

[@user-fv3dd8qn2p]

fenomenale ........il poeta del Rock!!!!

[@lucarango7540]

Canzone splendida

[@fsaladanna]

SUPER

[@martijn7416]

LENNY FERRARI!!!

[@rschiel50]

Man...the old days...that was then but now it's today...

[@richardbunting1031]

40yrs ago! Shit!

[@jajlertil]

This feels so tame compared to the record

[@TheNeverposts]

it's way more rock'n'roll though (in the old school sense, considering Lou essentially invented the punk sound)

[@alexandrelaurent7941]

I dont feel like so. It's generous. And it moves. Not stupidly. Bye stranger!

[@robertbutlin3708]

@@alexandrelaurent7941 while more rocky the recorded version is so unsmooth that it feels like the drugs are there - especially the piano at the end. Just enough feedback to distort the sound just like drugs distort life.

[@agatamazzone4894]

Finisco Hannuka come ho iniziato.. ascoltando i più malinconici artisti ebrei..Lou e LEONARD..che la terra vi sia lieve..shalom..

[@thedeadonmusic1]

There ain't nuthin' wrong with this version....

[@ariari4133]

neighter whit the substance,if its pure

[@CalCali1658]

yeah, this is the "sweet" version

[@bradley9848]

He missed a line the line is "hey wait boy what you doin uptown hey white boy you chasin our women around oh pardon me sir it's furthest from my mind I'm just lookin for a dear dear friend of mind"

Of all the many versions of this, I think I like the bass the best on this one.

[@johnstroh9948]

Give it to me Quine!

[@mauricehigney4024]

Oh ! The wait😬

[@user-fh1rz1uq6c]

Why no footage of the bass player in the video? It would have been great to see him grooving, even for a couple of seconds. His bass on this is uplifting and irresistible.

[@sherylbaker1931]

GIVE IT TO ME TWIIEINE!!

[@Shorties956]

HBD lou

[@masanobushibata4345]

Give it to me, Quine !

[@vinyldiary6664]

ahaha epic!

[@nathanielbrewster7238]

Much funkier than the record versions

[@sdbolt65]

Lou Reed, NY cool. Too bad a lot of his work was overlooked.

[@stevekatz4372]

It's not overlooked at all because we are rocking to it today on KZbin and it will never Die!!!!!

[@tonybambrough1543]

I love the Strat mind, oh and yes I love the song, I don't know what the guitarist's called but he so cool

[@woodygould]

Tony Bambrough Robert Quine. Woefully buried in the mix here. RIP

I get confused about the correct title of this song, is it I'm Waiting for My Man or I'm Waiting for The Man, I'm just curious Regardless though, great song and great video, thanks for uploading RIP Lou, thanks for the music

[@FaithlessLooter]

Miles Jolly It's listed a I'm waiting for the man on Velvet Underground with Nico, but the and my are usually interchanged.

[@shivering_sky]

Robert Fucking Quine!

[@davidrasmussen5697]

Who is the killer lead guitar on that ? Love him.

[@Tjfloodflorida]

Great tune. Lou got away with murder with that very marginal voice.

[@eddielasowsky7777]

E Howard Hunt on lead guitar

[@vpcproduction7070]

what happened at 0:48 ? he looks back pretty pissed off. i think the drummers was too fast..

[@musicmitomoonx]

Yes!! Drummer is veeery bad

[@otterwv1]

Who is that guitar player.

[@purplesoup2]

It was originally called "I'm waiting for my Nan".

[@mikef.1000]

See Lou shove a shot of energy into all the band at the start there? Cool. Pity we saw next to nothing of the guy on bass... he was cranking it out with style.

[@1954telecaster]

Very funky uptempo rendition. Sounds more cocaine than heroin

[@joshualewis3337]

Give it to me Quine

Give it ti me Quine,
