I'd always thought what this song really needed was a Chinese guy doing Tai Chi. Glad to see that oversight finally resolved.

"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.

@@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.

It's always a perfect day listening to Lou Reed's timeless music. Perfect Day is my favourite song.

I really love this version. Lou's rough vocals sound great and are complimented nicely by Anthony.

This still gives me chills and goosebumps all over my body. Rest in sweet peace Lou Reed

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.

As time goes by , I realize these lyrics are some of the best ever ❤️ Lou

So gorgeous in any version.

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.

That just made me cry! Thank you LOU REED and REST IN PEACE!

Such a sad day! RIP Lou!! Thank you for teaching me to walk on the wild side!

god bless you lou reed

This may be the perfect version of the perfect song

Wish you all ".. just a perfect day". Thanks Lou

I was in at one of his performances.... And I will be always glad that I did!!!!!!

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.

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.

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.

Such a unique and moving performance…am I the only one in tears ?

Lou Reed, one of the greatest songwriters of all time with Anohni one of the greatest voices ever - what could be better ?

Love the interpretation with Dance. Surprise split.

I'm glad I spent many days hearing this song to make my day perfect

Still listening in 2022 and always ace...

I loove this song and love this version.

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.

Just a Perfect Song

WOWZA !!!! AWESOME ANTHONY COMPLIMENTS !!!!! SO NICE !!!!!!!!!

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.
