Velvet Underground - Femme Fatale

“Andy said I should write a song about Edie Sedgwick.
    I said ‘Like what?’ and he said ‘Oh, don’t you think she’s a femme fatale, Lou?’
    So I wrote ‘Femme Fatale’ and we gave it to Nico.”
[Lou Reed]

"My politics are very simple. Basically, I just wanted to inspire kids, get 'em off their ass, get 'em thinking, get 'em pissed off, as pissed off as I was. Get them to look around at what was going on, even in the simplest way. Just get them to ask a few questions. You know, interject a little extra joy and pain into their lives. "
[Patti Smith, SPIN, April 1988]

Jakob Dylan "Nothing But the Whole Wide World"

Mika:
So I was sitting there in the bar and this guy comes up to me and he said "My life stinks" and I saw his gold credit card and I saw the way he was looking at people across the room and I looked at his face and you know, what a good looking face, and I just said, "Dude, your perspective on life sucks".
