    “Pablo Picasso” is a song written by Jonathan Richman, recorded in 1972 but not released until 1976. Originally performed by Richman and his band The Modern Lovers, It is the fourth track on the group’s debut self-titled album. Produced by John Cale, who later became the first to cover the song, Richman said he wrote the song as a way to vent his frustration at his lack of success in picking up girls.
    In the song, you hear a combination of frustration, anger and insanity.

    This is pure genius. I must have listened to over 50 versions of this song, most of them by Cale, but this one rules them all like Sauron's Ring.

    John Cale, you're a f**king dream to listen to. Emily, Fear, Gun, Charlemagne, Child's Christmas In Wales, Helen of Troy, just everything has been a dream. Sometimes a twisted one, but oh boy, your stuff is beaut. Leadmill Sheffield, circa2005. A night to remember.

    I was at this gig and I will never forget that guitar riff flooding the Myer Music Bowl and beyond. Like the Stooges this is amplified music at it’s most powerful.

      The Modern Lovers were the band at the first mixer of my freshman year in college (Boston area, obviously), in 1972. They played this song, and it sounded like White Light, White Heat then, too. I thought they were some sort of Velvet Underground tribute/rip-off band at the time -- though I never forgot this song, or Jonathan Richman's obvious fun in singing it as he worked the crowd with a disproportionate number of geeky teenage guys.

    Remember John Cale produced the very first recording of this song (in 1972 --though it only appeared four years later, in the Modern Lovers' first album).
    This version is great. I think Jonathan Richman would be proud. :)

      Also, the first version of this song by anyone that was released on record was Cale's cover of it on his Helen of Troy album, which came out in 1975, about a year before the Modern Lovers self-
      titled album.

    As witness to seeing The Modern Lovers do this many times I have to say this is the most rocking version I've ever heard and close to the way they did it live, tho obviously not quite this ferocious.

    Still not got to the Picasso gallery in Malaga. But in 2004 I did somehow end up with my niece Caroline at private viewing in a gallery in Malaga. When I realised what was happening, I told her to play it cool so that I could get some free vino. We’d just wandered in off the street. We’d got the train to Malaga that evening from some resort along the coast where we’d left her mad mother. C was only 16 then. We laughed all the way home.

    Thanks for the upload. I never realized that John Cale recorded this song until today. But not only that, he actually released this song before the Modern Lovers did, even though they recorded it first (with him on piano).

    Cale must had been the lighthearted VELVET. This version is fun-filled, even accounting for dif betw live and studio, compared with Bowie's version, but funny in the manner of THE GIFT. Wonder if Cale suggested that narrative? That's a funny song. I'd start webbased fan club for THE GIFT: the sitcom.
    Back to reality: THIS ROCKS.

      Not so sure i’d call John Cale the light hearted Velvet. Probably Mo or even Sterling. Cale brought the avant garde and both he and Lou had a very dark side. Amazingly he is same age as Lou and he’s still going strong. Great version, JR is a great writer but JC is a whirlwind.

    Love the original to bits, but I consider this live version to be the best rendition. Maybe that’s a bit of an overstatement, as the original is the one true version, and Cale’s studio version just isn’t as good. But this version... oh my god.
