    I mean, some absolute gems in this decade from Bowie, Krafwerk, Roxy Music, Talking Heads… god damn.

    But for me, as a huge Violent Femmes fan, finding Velvet Underground was so important. Which song though??? tough choice, but let’s go with an absolute classic that I listen to on the reg: “Pale Blue Eyes” https://youtu.be/KisHhIRihMY

      All my favorite bands point back to the VU - Alex Chilton, REM, Yo La Tengo, and on and on. They were cooler than cool.
