Interesting. That makes sense. But in my memory, the new Lou Reed video was a scheduled event, which seems unlikely in itself. But I remember having great anticipation watching it, was trying very hard not to be disappointed for the first half of the video, and then Gaaaaaah! The VJ afterwards had a similar, “um, well. That was something.” reaction.
Someday I’ll spend some time googling to see if anyone recorded it.
