Surely skulls were pivotal to all the VU albums? If not for skulls, Lou's brain would probably have fallen down his windpipe and he wouldn't have been able to sing properly.

Haha! :lol:

I voted for ATP, because it's the only one of the three I can't immediately imagine anyone else but Nico singing. John did a pretty great job when he had to fill in live for Nico, but Nico's version on the album is the definitive one IMHO. I actually prefer Lou's live versions of FF and IBYM.

Spooky! Let's try that again, just to check it's not actually a fluke.
Ok, so 'favourite VU song that lasts 4:35' ???
"Beginning to see the light." :-P

Very close, I have to admit. But that's 2-3 seconds too long (depending on which mix you choose). Sorry, but rules are rules.

Anyway, back to the poll - can I vote for 'Storm in a Teacup' ? I know she recorded it after she left the Velvets but its still a great song.

Actually, I like "It was a pleasure then," but I did vote for "I'll be your mirror."
