I heard the news slowly trickle throughout the day. Lou Reed died today. This has always been one of my favorite songs, from the first time I heard it as I picked through old record stores:
I also have this strange connection to 'Walk on the Wild Side' as I landed in France for the first time when I was 18 and the first English I heard was this song blaring on the car radio. It opened up a strange new world for me. Funny how one single song can do that to ya.
I forever wonder and ponder and gaze out as life escapes us and hope the departed can feel all our love.
'How does it feeeel to be loooo-ooooved?'
