Summer doesn’t start for me till I hear some Velvet Underground’s Loaded album, because I always sing the song “Who Loves the Sun” every morning I wake up with a hangover. I end up cursing the sun all day because its hot and bright outside, also it doesn’t help when people say “it's such a beautiful sunny day”. I’d rather lay low till night, listening the musings of Lou Reed all day long.

Sweet Jane always reminds me of this girl I knew way back when, with her wild indifference of everyone’s comfort level, and me with my greased black hair barely noticing anything around me. It was always just like traveling in my mind, seeing different sides of the world, showing my side world of the world where the working class lives and what we eat.  Traveling between the middle class and the working class always seemed like a journey to another world. It just makes it seem funnier that I was ignoring everything, while listening to this song when I meet her.

There’s a cool little draw that goes on when I listen to Cool It Down, the confidence in Lou Reed’s voice just fits the toughest stance I got. Slow and low just simple guitars and drums pick up and make you want to scream this song while in a dark bar with friends.

I Found A Reason is a sappy kinda love song that doesn’t sacrifice the talent of The Velvet Underground for bubble gum. It just hits the mark and makes use of the whole doo wop style. I can see allot of people dancing to this song at a wedding if they were cool and not Jersey Shored out (God I Hate MTV with that crap) there is allot sweet lyrics in this one.

So in the end you should really dig this album and share it. So this will be my new thing Pass it on meaning repost this link and share the music like I have
