Answer 3

You're definitely not the only one!

Lou Reed is a GOD!

my favorite songs are "I'm Waiting For My Man" and "European Son"

that whole debut album is gold. =)

Answer 4

Almost everybody knows who they are. I feel sorry for those who don't.

Answer 5

They're just one of the more influential and talented badns of their generation. lol

No, I have no idea who they are. Who's this Lou Reed fella? He seems weird. Wonder if he walks on the wild side...

Answer 6

I keep seeing their names everywhere, but I've never actually heard any of their music...

Answer 7

A lot of people know who they are.

Answer 8

Of course. But not the last album, since it just had Doug Yule on it. No Lou. But I'd have to say my favorite album by them is White Light/White Heat. And they are one of my favorite bands.

Answer 9

wait thats the band with slash  and some random blonde dude singing right?

Answer 10

I'm always considered myself pretty well versed in my music from the 30's to the 70's. . .but I'll admit, I'd never heard of these guys. I know Lou Reed, but not of this band.  

Interesting.
