Didn't know you liked VU Erin, big fan or just a passing fancy or what?
I can envision you covering some of their songs,any chance of that,if so,what might they be?

'I'm waiting for my man' is my favourite to cover :)

Woe is me,another dashed fantasy,of all the monumentally great songs off that first album you could apply your icing dripping pretty voice to,that was not one i had in mind.

LOL, well, better luck next time. Is it just me or were most songs for 60s boho-vixen types sort of mopey and sad? I do like the way Nico sings 'all tomorrow's parties' because she strangles the end of every phrase. She doesn't feel any sympathy for the subject. It's delicious.

If you search teutonic nihilist or teutonic intonation the first return is Nico. FYI your main man Morrissey included a VU and a Nico solo song on his "Desert Island Discs" list.
