Lyric Of The Day – Street Hassle (Lou Reed)

Posted on August 31, 2017October 2, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Lyric Of The Day – Street Hassle (Lou Reed)

It’s a cover, but I love it…and, well, if I am to make a piece for every track on every Simple Minds album…this must be included, for it is a track on Sparkle In The Rain.
Probably should have not used these particular lines, either…but in the context of the song, they hold the most resonance…and…are beautiful…bittersweet…sensual…painful (resonating on a personal level quite a bit right now too).
