I dont see them talked about a lot on here. They've got a lot of good ones.

1. Sweet Jane (in my top 10 all time)
2. Waiting For The Man
3. Heroin

Was going to list Perfect Day but I'm pretty sure that's a solo Reed song.

The first minute or so is amazing. When the screech hits it loses me.

How did I forget to list Pale Blue Eyes. Easily one of my favorites from them. Love REM's cover too.

That's simply a ripoff of the Velvets' original live version
