This was the day I saw ALex off the motorway travelling over by Warrington , almost died when i saw his head pop out of the back seat of an Suv in the service station somewhere off the M62, it was early in the morning. They must have been travelling to Liverpool , you are so lucky to go to all their gigs! You've been to loads
A very easy song to play on the guitar. Just two simple chords .But make no mistake about that. This is one of the greatest songs ever made , and this version is really really great!
Ben Jones It works because it's a tribute. the strokes once put mercy, mercy me by marvin gaye as the b-side for you only live once and It works pretty well.
Holly came from Miami, F.L.A. Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A. Plucked her eyebrows on the way Shaved her legs and then he was a she She says, "Hey, babe Take a walk on the wild side" Said, "Hey, honey Take a walk on the wild side" Candy came from out on the Island In the back room she was everybody's darling But she never lost her head Even when she was giving head She says, "Hey, babe Take a walk on the wild side" Said, "Hey, babe Take a walk on the wild side" And the colored girls go "Doo do doo do doo do do doo..." Little Joe never once gave it away Everybody had to pay and pay A hustle here and a hustle there New York City's the place Where they said, "Hey, babe Take a walk on the wild side" I said, "Hey, Joe Take a walk on the wild side" Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets Looking for soul food and a place to eat Went to the Apollo You should've seen them go, go, go They said, "Hey, sugar Take a walk on the wild side" I said, "Hey, babe Take a walk on the wild side", alright Huh Jackie is just speeding away Thought she was James Dean for a day Then I guess she had to crash Valium would have helped that bash She said, "Hey, babe Take a walk on the wild side" I said, "Hey, honey Take a walk on the wild side" And the colored girls say "Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
For 'back story' - Lou Reed had died on the previous day to the show, so they put it together pretty fast. Sweet tribute! x
I wish they'd record a studio version of this.
"You can doo doo doo a lot louder than that!"
I was there... best night of my life
every cover they do is impeccable
I've always loved the Arctics but this is beyond anything. Lou Reed's Transformer was the first album I bought. This was beautiful. Thank you.

A very easy song to play on the guitar. Just two simple chords .But make no mistake about that. This is one of the greatest songs ever made , and this version is really really great!
3 chords
Four, fam.
nah, 5
There is no guitar, just 2 bass guitars
"don't know this one, has to be from Humbug" hahaha
that killed me 😂
fkn that was hard to listen to
Eeesshh that one hurt ahahaha
Why didn't I stumble across it till just now? I got goosebumps
vividly remember crying my eyes out here
They can cover anything and do it justice. This is a perfect tribute. RIP Lou.
Sounds like they've been doing this cover for years. Pure bliss and a fitting tribute at that.
This is such a gorgeous cover
My two great musical loves collide, absolute perfection and a grand tribute to the late great Lou.
I dream of this being uploaded to spotify one day
Coming from 11 years later I think another Lou reed cover is needed Alex’s voice is so perfect I just need another
class act those guys are. and a damn good tribute to lou.
I really like how they sort of put their own spin on this song. It's subtle but I love it!
These lads never fail to impress
One of the best nights of my life, dont understand why people were talking all the way through this! It was amazing!
R.I.P. Lou Reed, ♡
One of the better covers of this song I have heard
AS IF THE MONKEYS COVERED THIS! THIS IS TOO PERFECT
I was there and I'm only 15 but what a beautiful Tribute to the wonderful Mr Reed!
the world is missing you lou....=(
All class. This tribute makes me happy.
Quality - the band, the tune, and the video. RIP Lou
Jamie is on guitar far right and Bill Ryder-Jones is on the far left - he came on for a few songs
I know this song , so nice Alex sing this song , I love it ! Simple I love AM ;)
I was there tonight and it was a truly beautiful event!
This was absolutely incredible
This was sweet and wonderful.
Great gig that night and the lads paying a lovely tribute to the late Lou Reed RIP
can't believe your still there every time! been following for years
put this as a b side on the One For The Road single!
Good idea only you don't really put one of the greatest songs ever as a b side
Let's put One For The Road as a B-side for this, then. It must be done.
Ben Jones It works because it's a tribute. the strokes once put mercy, mercy me by marvin gaye as the b-side for you only live once and It works pretty well.

Arctic monkeys 2013 isn't old arctic monkeys LoL

Rip Lou Reed, you were an amazing Rock N' Roll legend
i just came back from there, an amazing cover
Lou reeds walk on the wild side ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
Said, "Hey, honey
Take a walk on the wild side"
Candy came from out on the Island
In the back room she was everybody's darling
But she never lost her head
Even when she was giving head
She says, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
Said, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls go
"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City's the place
Where they said, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey, Joe
Take a walk on the wild side"
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
Looking for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo
You should've seen them go, go, go
They said, "Hey, sugar
Take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side", alright
Huh
Jackie is just speeding away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
She said, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey, honey
Take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls say
"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
This makes me so happy :')
Fantastic!!!
Brilliant! R.I.P Lou Reed
I was there & it really was amazing.
