Velvet Underground - Rock & Roll

"I have always believed rock & roll comes down to myth. There are no 'facts.' "

"Good rock & roll is something that makes you feel alive."

"Rock & roll is an attitude. It's not a musical form of a strict sort. It's a way of doing things, of approaching things. Writing can be rock & roll or a movie can be rock & roll. It's a way of living your life."

You are right, Lester. You are always right.

original version from Loaded

live version from 1969: Velvet Underground Live (probably the best live version ever)

Jenny said, when she was just five years old
There was nothin' happening at all
Every time she puts on the radio
There was nothin' goin' down at all, not at all

Then, one fine morning, she puts on a New York station
You know, she couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started shakin' to that fine, fine music
You know, her life was saved by rock'n'roll

Despite all the imputations
You know, you could just go out
And dance to a rock'n'roll station
And it was all right, hey baby
You know, it was all right

Jenny said, when she was just about five years old
You know, my parents are gonna be the death of us all
Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars
Well, you know, ain't gonna help me at all

Then, one fine morning, she turns on a New York station
She doesn't believe what she hears at all
Ooh, she started dancin' to that fine, fine music
You know, her life was saved by rock'n'roll
Yeah, rock'n'roll

Despite all the computations
You could just dance to that rock'n'roll station
And baby, it was all right, yeah
Hey, it was all right
Hey, here she comes now

Jenny said, when she was just about five years old
Hey, you know, there's nothin' happening at all, not at all
Every time I put on the radio
You know, there's nothin' goin' down at all, not at all

But, one fine morning, she hears a New York station
She couldn't believe what she heard at all, hey, not at all
She started dancing to that fine, fine music
You know, her life was saved by rock'n'roll
Yes, rock'n'roll

Despite all the computations
You know, you could just dance to the rock'n'roll station

All right
All right, all right, and it was all right
Oh, listen to me now, it was all right
Come on now, believe me, it was all right
It was all right
Hey, it's all right now

有點搞不懂﹐Lester備受推崇﹐追隨者卻少見
他絕不照單全收﹐完全自主又不留情面的作風﹐遠近難求
