Lou was notoriously - intentionally - gnarly & cantankerous; if you soaked up anything about the artist / man , this is precisely the kind of flattering cover of one of his songs which he'd say was ," just dreadful, I can't stand it " in the press , ony to be found dancing in his dressing room or playing it in his ever present Walkman ... he was hard to predict was the implication , I'm pretty sure.... no foul to Keef...just the way Lou rolled....
72 years old and have been a keith Richards/Stones fan since they hit the airwaves, 80 years old and he's still dropping songs like this and sounding ever so good while reminding us why he was put on this Earth. Its raining and trying to snow here on this Friday morning and I hit on this and the sun burst through. What a great way to start the weekend & Happy birthday Lou Reed where ever you are, I still hear you occasionally and smile....😎
I'm right there with you! The Stones were the soundtrack to my life and I was just saying today, "when did I get old, I never noticed it" now I get automatic senior discounts without even asking, WHAT THE 😂
69 Last februrary being 70 odd years does not scare me the music who are swifties the woman called like i could live forever that was her name beautiful ttiitts that swifty has some legs and a nice smell
I just woke up this morning...pretty tired...have a 15 hour work day today...then I watched this...best morning coffee I could ask for...I'm up and feeling oh so fine....Thank you Mr Richard's and Mr Reed. It's a hit! Grateful I don't have a habit to feed. My new favorite song.
Man I just finished one yesterday, mud, water, cold as hell. Nothing fit, everything was a grind to the last second. Just got up and poured coffee sore as shit. Anyways just wanted to say Hell Yeah to your comment!
His book was all true. At least it seemed authentic. What reason would he have to make shit up? He lived the life of King's. He lived the life of a pirate and won. I can't believe that he has many regrets. He got the all of the prettiest girls, the best stories in the world and still ended up with a beautiful wife and family. Who can ask for more?
If that's all you got out of this, maybe you should go slam some heroin. It might give you a little bit of soul. Because that was an all time classic! Thanks for sharing the song with us Kieth, unfuc____ real can't wait until Sofia. Going to be grrrrrreaaatttee!!!
Keith is an inspiration for all seniors that life doesn't have to end at 80 or even the 90's. I am 80, writing my best songs ever and putting those songs to work with Nashville publishers to pitch to major labels. The hardest part is getting the labels to admit to the quality of the new songs and giving them a chance. There is always room for a great song and then watch your audience grow.
I have tried to overlook Keith at times, no malice.... tried to overlook the Stones... I always liked the fringe, including Lou and VU. But Keith cannot and will not be overlooked. There's somethin' in him, and its gotta' come out.
Sorry about this, but what is the "real stuff" you speak of? what do you want, a cover version? Keith doing a Lou Reed song, in his own way, is an act of love, respect and honor. If you look at the video, Richards is playing two different guitars and a bass. We don't know the details of the recording but it does show he was serious about it. Lou Reed had a low opinion of the blues. Maybe, this is a cosmic joker's last word on the subject of the Blues. @@alanlake4614
Seeing Keith perform this Velvet Underground classic is watching him taking a victory lap over his addiction. He's been away from that life for decades and now he's telling the story about someone else even though he lived it for a long time. This is a triumph for him.
Billy Angelino here just want to say,wow and thank you so much everyone for the likes on my comment. I get a lot of likes on every different video, be it music, sports, movies, whatever, basically because, if you knew me like a lot of people here in Winter Haven, Fl, you would know that I am always honest, sincere, trustworthy, don't bullshit or hurt anyone. Most of all, I see a lot of replies where people will down grade or really give a person a super hard time or out right nasty to someone else who had a different opinion about a video. Remember folks, that is exactly what it is, an opinion, and I respect everyone who comments, even if I don't agree, I will nicely say, I understand how you feel, but just my opinion, and we all are entitled to one, and mine is, then I give it. Great things I remember as a child, from a great teacher, my dad, who I lost last year, I move forward like he made me promise I would, but every morning I awake, I miss him more than the day before. Also folks, I am no preacher or someone special, or better than anyone else, but in this crazy world today, as well as since I was a child, I always try to talk to people in public, have nice conversations, listen, learn and laugh. Do you know how many times, after a day out, that on the drive home, I realized the smile on my face, ear to ear, just happy as hell because of good conversation and being nice to my fellow man. It's a great feeling for me because I see so many miserable people in public, from out right rude to just mean, and it's really sad, because life is great and wonderful and so much to do, places to go and see, people to meet, etc..., but in the blink of an eye, your world changes, some times, for the worse. The day my dad was diagnosed with stage four cancer, nothing could be done, October, before my fifty nineth birthday, doctor said, thank God if he sees Christmas. Guess what folks, he passed away at three am, the day before Christmas Eve. You can imagine what I think of one of my favorite times of the year, my entire life, why?, because of what a joy mom and dad made it for all of us kids, this year, the family had a great time, but I took my beloved little girls, my dogs, to Vero Beach and stayed for a few days, alone and didn't give Christmas a thought. Take care everyone and I love you all
I'm about five miles or so south of Keith Richards' house as I am posting this. I remember listening to The Stones' "12X5" album with my late older brother when I was 7 years old (1964). 28 years later, my brother was invited over to Keith Richards' house-along with his guitar. He once brought our Mom to a birthday party at Keith's house; which reminds me: Do you remember this line from "Mother's Little Helper"-'what a drag it is getting old'? She's now 89, and I'm 67. Hmm.
I did not know that but that is cool. Lou Reed's music has been a favourite of mine since the 70's. Something I lose track of and then rediscover time and again.
They have certain things in common- and I'm not just referring to drugs. Lou was a tough dude- Keef is laid back and all, but he's still tough. I bet he still carries a knife.
@@Treverum They'd be taking H, so there wouldn't be any "crapping" being done for 4 or 5 days. But, yes, it would be a hell of a night if it involved all of that plus some hot groupies.
Love Keith Richards! For someone who has million$ and million$, he sure don't act like it at all! He comes across as being someone who is really down to earth. God bless, Keith!
Be nice to your grannies... Do they like the STones? Share your loves of music with them, after asking them to share their music with you/ BTW did you know that genetically you are more like your grans than your ma and pa?
My favourite Velvet Underground song since more than 50 years. And I think, only Keith is cool enough to make a wonderful cover version. This 80 years old guy is cooler than most of the 20 years old! This cover is outstanding!!!
We all remember the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. That was a true revelation for all us boomers. But after not too long The Stones appeared and all my 11-year-old self could think was NOW YOU'RE TALKING!
@DrFelch Yeah, I got bored a few minutes in. I don't feel that desperation and futility in looking to score dope that you get from Lou Reed. It sounds really tame.
Agree. The backing vocals may also seem reminiscent of those of Diamond, Vent and Wendroff on Coney Island Baby. It was hard to imagine a world without Lou and is even harder to think of it without Keith.
@@marciap2961UR 👍 right about the ‘age’ remark - and I’m about 70. But, ‘talent’, not ‘cool’ has no age limit. Good music IS timeless regardless of anything else! It’s a shame that so many of the younger generation don’t appreciate, or even care to listen to, what MINE did. It’s their loss!
One of my favorite stories to tell is the night Keith handed me a joint when I was working at the Ritz in NYC... by then it was just a roach, wet with his spittle. I still smoked it!
true? someone met amy w ihouse before she passed a wet with spittle roach is not a joint did you when you on the job at the ritz smoke you might have keith dna in your lungs
Whoah...Keith Richards covering I'm Waiting for My Man. As soon as I saw this in my feed I knew that it was going to be great, and once again Keith delivers the goods. Long live Keith! Long live rock and roll!
Keef ??? C'est comme un Vosne-Romané, un Petrus ,,, tu laisses le Tps passer , et PUT1 ,,,, tu degustes après toutes ces années ,,,,OMG , wow WTF ? ,,,,,long Long road richards and Auguste Theodore Dupree ! I can get -BiG - satisfaction !!!!!,,,,,, Pierres Pierres rolling forever !
Truly this is a snapshot of KEEF chilling with his homies. Seriously it is beautiful coz it shows that THEY ALL CHILLIN IN THE SAME VIBE...TOGETHER IN EVERY WAY. ENJOYING EVERY SECOND
KEITH DEFINETLY STROLLED THE [BADLANS] , NO PLACE FOR D WEAK O HEART, FOR BETTER OR WORSE MY EXPERIENCES CAN BE SUMMED UP IN THESE RAW LYRICS N SOFT MELODIC , SEEMINGLY A SIREN FOR A NOD. BESIDES THE TALENT IN (SPADES) THIS MAN KEEPS IT REAL, NO MATTER IF ONE"S VIEW IS CONTRDICTORY. I THANK KEITH FOR HIS PHILOSOPHICY OF LIFE N FREELY SHARING THE GIFTS OF HIS TALENT! J.M.S.
When I was a child I used to sneak into my big brother's room and play the Velvet Underground Album. This track was my favorite. Keith, you do it so well.
It is a luxury to be able to see and hear this version that Keith Richards makes of "I'm waiting for the man". Lou Reed would have liked it very much..
Im 52, Keith is 80 and I need him to out live me because I cant imagine a world without him
Don't worry, he will. Keith is immortal.
Don’t worry, he will. 😊
We have to consider what kind of world we’re leaving for Kieth and Willie Nelson

The most 'Keith Richards' song Lou ever wrote.
Cool it down is very Stones too!!
The Stones would be great in "Venus in Furs", too. I wish i cold hear a Beggar's Banquet version of that.
I'd have nominated Oh Sweet Nothin'.... I read a Mick interview once when he said the beginning of Stray Cat was inspired by the beginning of Heroin.
Lou was a exceptional solo artist, Keith was in an exceptional band, it's very different.

I get the feeling Keith never had to wait for the man.
Yeah, but he alwas had his knive in his boots, as he said
Waiting for the guy to get it from the guy. Thats enough reason to find a new life!

What kind of world are we gonna leave for Keith Richards?
Hahahaha! That made me laugh out loud!

Brilliant - now that is ed . He has filled worlds with sublime sounds

The song is called "Waiting for THE man" no idea why he felt the need to change it, the line sounds terrible. Bowie's cover is superior in every way.
You must have never listened to the original version then.

Wow s little bang a gong vibe added in. Kieth plays all the guitars. Real nice layers. Wonder were the bass is coming from.
When Lou Reed wrote this song way back in the day, he was thinking of Keith Richards.
I was born 1974 and this song has been true story when I was in early twenties..💯🎶👍✌
Absolutely Fantastic, I miss Lou Reed. Can you imagine both of them singing this together,🤩🤩🤩🤩
They would be looking for the Man ,and more!!!

A world without KEITH is not a world😂😂😂😂❤❤

Keith ist einfach immer noch ein so cooler Typ ! Meine Hochachtung!
living legend and an honor to walk the same planet
Hooked on this cool tune.
I GET CHILLS EVERYTIME
Always proud to be a Rolling Stones fan especially Keith Richards....Been a fan for 55yrs.. AlWaYs FoR EveR..
I can't think of a more perfect song for Keith Richards to cover. This is the sound and feel that Hackney Diamonds should have had.
God dammed! He sounds like Lou reed. Good stuff.
Truly this is a snapshot of KEEF chilling with his homies. Seriously it is beautiful coz it shows that THEY ALL CHILLIN IN THE SAME VIBE...TOGETHER IN EVERY WAY. ENJOYING EVERY SECOND
Keith's got just the perfect kind of voice to sing songs such as this. LEGEND. I love you!
GOOD MUSIC NEVER DIES
Thats the great Rock-style I enjoy since a teen ... now I'm middle of 70th ages... Go on Keith !!!
most folks who try to cover this song really just don't get it, but Keith does.
Damn straight son. Keith for sure gets Lou🕺🤪
Lou Reed wrote this about the time that the Rolling Stones had their first hit. I really like this and it fits Keith like a glove.
Keith is so humble, I admire him so much =)
Beautiful! This was the favorite song of a good friend of mine. He dos not live anymore.
This is so badass. And from the guy who knows....
Lou must be looking down grinning
He’s just the hippest dude on the planet, period ❤❤❤
He was waiting for his man for so many years so this song suits him. 😊
Great cover...
Der alte Mann hat es immer noch drauf!❤
Oooowwww WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'OLD MAN' I,LL HAVE YOU KNOW I FEEL AS YOUNG AS I LOOK. ✌️😎
Excellent version, faithful in sonic and atmospheric terms to the original. Walk it home!
KEITH DEFINETLY STROLLED THE [BADLANS] , NO PLACE FOR D WEAK O HEART, FOR BETTER OR WORSE MY EXPERIENCES CAN BE SUMMED UP IN THESE RAW LYRICS N SOFT MELODIC , SEEMINGLY A SIREN FOR A NOD. BESIDES THE TALENT IN (SPADES) THIS MAN KEEPS IT REAL, NO MATTER IF ONE"S VIEW IS CONTRDICTORY. I THANK KEITH FOR HIS PHILOSOPHICY OF LIFE N FREELY SHARING THE GIFTS OF HIS TALENT! J.M.S.
Another home run for our man....Mr. Keith Richards!!
What a great surprise. Keef is so rock n roll. My favorite guitar player ever. Gold rings on ya!!!
Lou would approve 🖤
When I was a child I used to sneak into my big brother's room and play the Velvet Underground Album. This track was my favorite. Keith, you do it so well.
Let's get the winos back together those guys rock❤
It is a luxury to be able to see and hear this version that Keith Richards makes of "I'm waiting for the man". Lou Reed would have liked it very much..
FRENCH COVER ? YES SIR !

If Kieth Richard was the only musician in the world, that would be plenty
Keef has lived this song.
Keith has always been a good singer.
