I'd always thought what this song really needed was a Chinese guy doing Tai Chi. Glad to see that oversight finally resolved.
Hilarious, uv got me & the rest of the room here in stitches laughing. More memorable than the performance itself!
such a bs though. I liked your comment like 3 years ago. Don't worry
He's a lot more impressive that the goddamn vocalist in the room.
Wwho is the other singer in this song, the second voice? Please
I have been chuckling about your comment all day. Good one!!
Everybody can learn to sing, but to express feelings this way it's a rare miracle
Bro he uses so many different tones and it's so weird and awkward
The imperfections are what allow this song to become perfect.
Please tell me how.
"Soil that is dirty grows the countless things. Water that is too pure has no fish." Zen/Buddhist quote.
Excuse me for my bad english but I’m a french girl. Perfect Day is the most beautifull song of the world. The man which does Thaï schi is the professor for Lou Reed because Lou Reed does Thaï schi. It’s an excellent idea. I miss you Mister Lou Reed.
È bello che anche un'anima tormentata come la sua abbia scoperto quest'arte antica 🙌
@@erikatamussin3358 Thanks you very much for your comment. I wish you a very good day.
Seeing Lou Reed is very comforting for me. His music has been a constant companion through my life. His genius was a gift that very few can match.
I really love this version. Lou's rough vocals sound great and are complimented nicely by Anthony.
Second vocalist?
no
It's always a perfect day listening to Lou Reed's timeless music.
Perfect Day is my favourite song.
That is not just a "backing singer"! That is the legend Anthony Hegarty of Anthony and the Johnsons, an incredible musician and a great friend of Lou's till the end.
the word legend is rather generous here.
@@leem7393 maybe but have a listen to their first album
@@leem7393 because of reeds free styling here.
Anohni ❤️❤️❤️
@@leem7393 O shut up. It's live you jackass
It’s 2022 and I still come back to this version when I’m lonely or sad. It somehow gives me hope and helps me keep hanging on.
Antony is amazing as is the rest of the band
You know pal, you'll be alright. We all willl
i sang this on karoake after my 40th birthday it suits my voice and temperament thankyou lou Reed, A perfect day is overlooked by the majority of us
2:42 is the best part of this song.....
His nuts gotta be smashed after that maneuver
Totes agree
I’ll never understand how such talent never took the world by storm. But, we who knew still appreciate quite how good they were.
He did for those who....hear
For Lou, a perfect day was to see how a dry leaf fell off the branch while dancing with the wind, that is the greatness of Lou.
While enrolled at Syracuse University, he studied under poet Delmore Schwartz, who he said was "the first great person I ever met", and they became friends. He credited Schwartz with showing him how "with the simplest language imaginable, and very short, you can accomplish the most astonishing heights." -- this is what made LOU an iconic figure.
Its funny how most of my favorite singers can't sing.
To be fair, he recorded this song back in 1971. It's to be expected that he wouldn't be able to sing it in his old age.
+hightimesbruce Well. The recording sounds like he worked hard to make it sound that good :D
I love this comment! :)
same reason I like flaming lips etc
You want to hear singers listen to the voice.
absolutely, the same with me. dylan, reed, furman (new guy), even the girls: shirley manson, patti smith, well
i think in the end, its more about the lyrics and the composition
This still gives me chills and goosebumps all over my body. Rest in sweet peace Lou Reed
As time goes by , I realize these lyrics are some of the best ever ❤️ Lou
So gorgeous in any version.
Ancora una volta ammiro questo grande artista nella sua semplicità. Ed è questa la sua grandezza. Grandissimi anche gli altri. Lou Reed mi manca come uomo prima che come artista. Non penso che ne nascerà un altro simile. Sempre e x sempre nel mio cuore.
Such a unique and moving performance…am I the only one in tears ?
This may be the perfect version of the perfect song
I was in at one of his performances....
And I will be always glad that I did!!!!!!
Such a sad day! RIP Lou!! Thank you for teaching me to walk on the wild side!
Wish you all ".. just a perfect day". Thanks Lou
I can only imagine how amazed and/or flabbergasted Anthony (now Anohi) must have been when he/she got the call to be the backing singer for Lou Reed on this show. Can you imagine how amazing that must be, to have one of the greats asking you to sing backup for them? I would be happy to do so!
Plus the contrast between Antony’s rather clean, soft vocals and Lou’s gravelly and speak singing works especially well here.
I'm glad I spent many days hearing this song to make my day perfect
Phoenix. His songs had been reborn by now and being listened by alot. Share him. Share Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, and so on. World needs to know value in pop music. Your body may rest in peace, your spirit may live forever, Lou.
Still listening in 2022 and always ace...
god bless you lou reed
Thanks Lou. Your LP's got me through it all, only to emerge from the other side a wiser man. May you emerge on the other side just as fulfilled. RIP.
my favorite version
That just made me cry! Thank you LOU REED and REST IN PEACE!
Love the interpretation with Dance. Surprise split.
haha you need to travel more maybe
@@davidl6332 I know Nelson Slater! Traveling is all I know.
Lou Reed, one of the greatest songwriters of all time with Anohni one of the greatest voices ever - what could be better
?
I love this performance.
I loove this song and love this version.
Lou's voice was made for Antony's and vice versa. Thank you for posting this video!
Just a Perfect Song

WOWZA !!!! AWESOME ANTHONY COMPLIMENTS !!!!! SO NICE !!!!!!!!!
This video is amazing. Made a great song epic.
¡Qué belleza de interpretación!
had a perfect day drinking with my mates in our two local pubs in Axbridge - peace and love man
There's something about Lou's vocal approach that's always appealed to me....something soothing and familiar about it.
You are tone deaf too?
How nice to see you so happy, Lou!
Día perfecto... melodía idem. Maravilloso....
The best song of Lou Reed
Lmfao not even close
What a beautiful song!
Lou lives in his fans hearts for ever, the most singular artist in rock music. Doesn’t get better than Lou

❤❤❤ Unico ❤❤❤
Master piece!!!
Hermoso tan lindo m gustan mucho tus canciones...👍💃😣😢
Great Lou Reed!
You just keep me hanging on ❤
Lou Reed perfect day from his album Transformer produced by David Bowie love the song love the album
Mick ronson, bowies early 70's guitar legend, born in my home town Hull, was also responsible for the production of this album, he also played piano and did the string arrangement for this song. Sadly his contribution to this album, and also bowies early work is often overlooked, both lou reed and david bowie tilt their caps to Ronson crediting him as a great guitar player and all round musician, and also for being a top bloke all round.
+john gowans His guitar work on Bowies early albums is awesome. Bowie should have stuck with him throughout his career. If he was that great early on, it would seem he would only get better.
Love.
I wonder if he hit the occasional right note by accident?
Roy Robart lolz
With Lou Reed, the note he is singing is the right one. Whatever it is.
Lou played whatever happened. Producer nightmare
Roy Robart You are clearly not a fan of Lou
I guess we'll never know.
juste magnifique ,rif lou
R.I.P. this MAESTRO!!!! Amazing!!
The blonde guy could make me cry you can feel what it means to him
Amazing
He was just magnificent. Velvet Underground the most important band ever. Still sorrowing over his death
Most important band ever😂😂😂
@@user-cs6up8eq7sand what's your musical background?
lou taking a chill on the wildside "legend"
Makes me cry... absence of my precious presence
makes perfect day
Gosto muito desta música.... bué mesmo

Thanks Lou
Dude, that's Antony Hegarty from Antony and the Johnsons, he's a legend.
transformer is one the greatest record of all time
I cry ..... sorry Lou, this is B E A U T I FU L
Toi la légende qui ma fait décoller dans ton rock André roll animal merci Lou
If I could bring only a handful of Artists he'd 100% be one of them. Freddie Mercury too! R.I.P
Sounds like a perfect day to me
Anohni, Tai chi and Reed
Wow... what more can we ask for in our lives?
