I've always liked this one from the 70's and every now and then it gets a play.
The Leyton Buzzards.

Seriously, I don't think I've heard Hanging Around since it was released.
Completely forgotten about it.
Converted it off YouTube and on iPod now. <ok>

This is the only video I could find.
Cheers

Bateman moment. Lou Reed's return to RCA records in the early 1980's yielded The Blue Mask long playing record. The listener is treated to Lou and Silvie getting out the ouija board and summoning the ghost of Delmore Schwartz. We learn that a man's got a gun and he knows how to use it. The sleeve parallels his earlier album Transformer a technique pastiched by Bowie recently with his The Next Day/Heroes mish mash. The eponymous titular track became extremely popular as a first waltz at the wedding of many a young sadomasochist. I've been a slave to punishment its always been that way.

When posting, right of the emoticon (smilies) button there is 6 other buttons. The 2nd last button is for youtube links (the film reel) and the 3rd last button is for pictures (make sure you click from URL tab when loading pictures)

If that doesn't help GIRFUY.

This for me is one of my all time favourite songs. It's not really the version that you hear nowadays. It's a track on wads of compilation albums, but it's always the faster version you seem to hear, the more keyboardy (a neologism) one. Roadrunner twice was the B side originally, but it ended up getting much more airplay at the time.

I remember it coming out. I first heard it when I was at school. I had never really heard anything like it at the time. I remember the first time I heard it on Radio Clyde it was like a ****ing epiphany man! It's obviously very Velvets influenced, but I had heard Jonathan Richman before I heard Lou Reed. I still have my original vinyl copy that I bought at the time. I got heavily into the American New wave.

Gonna drive past the Stop 'n' Shop
With the radio on

I fully concur with that whole shebang - vastly superior version - I had the single took me an age to find the version I wanted on a cd, this one definitely sits somewhere in the RL all time top ten
