Tonight is a night for some Velvet Underground. I’ve been listening to “Pale Blue Eyes” and “Hey Mr. Rain” religiously because they seem to fit the mood of this grey, indecisive day. There is something about Lou Reed’s voice and cadence that makes everything OK. His lyrics on “Pale Blue Eyes” sear right through you. John Cale’s viola work on “Hey Mr. Rain [Version 1]” is gorgeously orchestrated madness. This stuff encompasses the listless chaos of today.
