The Gift is the best track to be honest

>AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

It's overlong, it holds up so poorly to repeated listens and the instrumental is boring af. It takes up almost a quarter of the albums running time and it borderline ruins it outright. It and Murder Mystery are the only songs I actually skip on albums I otherwise enjoy.

Agreed. But listening to it through headphones makes it the worst song on the album

Why did they add that skull tattoo to the cover? Looks so stupid.

Because your mom is actually a man

I'm pretty sure they designed it that way but I do the same thing

>>61998643
lol

Sister Ray and lady Godiva's operation > The Gift IMO.

Possibly one of the worst songs of all time. This is a fantastic album but The Gift is bad beyond justification. I have never in my life seen anybody provide a case for it being anything other than a piece of shit.

>skipping murder mystery
It's funny because it used to be that the measure of a VU fan could be measured by how many of the lyrics they knew of Murder Mystery

>>62001173
every song in the album is goat kill yourself

Heard her call my name is the finest demonstration of the electric guitar I have ever heard.

No troll

>>62001726
Why would anyone think you're trolling? That song makes every single "top guitar solos" list.

>trolled hard

john cale's accent on that track sounds incredibly indian to me for some reason

>>62002150
he sounds potato to me desu

>>61997294
>skipping the only good song on s/t
This is a new kind of pleb

Lady Godiva's Operation > Here She Comes Now > The Gift > I Heard Her Call My Name > Sister Ray > White Light/White Heat

SWEETLY is one of the greatest moments ever in rock and roll.

>>62002544
really? I hate how awkward his chiming in sounds, it's still my favourite off the album

>>61997294
plebs live among us

>>62002581
I just think it's funny and I have the image of him randomly taking the mic of Cale.

>>61997016

I'd listen to it for the instrumental track alone. I wish the Velvets did more extended instrumentals in the same vein as James Brown recorded many albums worth of instrumentals.

>>61997016
It's the best track the first few times. As >>61997294 said, it becomes a total drag after that. "Here She Comes Now" and the title track are the best.
