This song is beautiful, not just for itself, but because it comes from a time of innocence and freedom when there were no "community standards" on any media to censor what we can say, express or like. I bought this album when it came out and now I'm 83 and still loving it!

I used to “sneak” into the restaurant where he was a cook at a tiny old school diner and we had a summer of love. No messy breakups, we didn’t put a label on any of it. He moved and so did I. Now all these years later, we’re madly in love, but still won’t put a label on it!

My brother had just bought 2 tickets for the Lou Reed concert in Luxemburg when the doctors told him that he had endstage cancer. They gave him a few month, maybe just a few weeks. The concert was 8 months later. My brother said that he is not planning on dieing before seeing Lou Reed. He had a spontaneous remission of the cancer.The doctors called it a medical miracle when they discharged him from the hospital. My brother went to the Lou Reed concert as he had said. He even outlived Lou Reed by 2 years.

Not many musicians like Lou. Way ahead of his time and still is. They say he was very much loved by his fellow musicians. Had to have been one heck of good dude. I didn't know him but I sure as heck loved him.

This was back then when all the adulterers and adulteresses both gay or straight, druggies, dope heads, singers all had a good time, even while they’re were still in their speakeasies. Life wasn’t rushed. Before social media Brainwashing, people took it easy back then. Life was so much better off without the technology. And this is coming from an old millennial. Even having those dreams when I wish that I can walk on the wild side again again. Live in the city again, Be wild again… And I’m not the only one who that life. Always be wild, always be yourself.🌹❤️‍🔥🌃🚕🚦🥃

I was queer kid in homophobic family in small homophobic town, I knew what this song is about and stuff like this meant world to me. I know terminology about Black people in this song is problematic but I wont stop loving this song because of it. RIPWR Holly Woodlawn

Well, what a jolt of reality to hear on the radio - after the VU. Hello everybody!!!!

Been listening to this song for 50 years - still sounds great.

Fun fact I just learned a out this song today.the saxophone in this song,was played by David bowie..no shit right!!!

This song ruined my life. And I still love it. The first time I heard this I was 7. I was hypnotized, mesmerized, entranced. I walked the wild side anywhere I could find it. I couldn’t wait until I was old enough to experience real wilderness. And I did. All of it. Now I’m 40, peaceful and happy.

I remember hearing it for the first time when I was a senior in high school, and that was in late 1972 or early 1973. The people sitting around on lunchbreak were spellbound, wondering just what the song was and what was going on.

I am very close to seven decades on this earth. Loved this song back in my early days. Today they try to argue that we need to be inclusive with the Alphabet People. I have and still have close friends who are Alphabets. I love them and they love me for who we are are - not what the narrative tells we must do !!!

This is perhaps one of the greatest records ever produced. PERFECT!!!

@@JasonCunliffe That's right. One bass does the C down to F glissando, the other does the high harmony. However during the verse, there is only one bass playing a more jazzed up lick. We could always ask Herbie Flowers for the definitive answer, I guess! ;)

As with so many of Lou's. But this one, no doubt - hard to beat.

This album does not have any bad songs. That's why it's my favorite Bowie had this virtue of seeing the good in people he admired, like Lou and Iggy Pop, and helping them when they were going through bad times so that their careers could have an artistic (if not commercial) rebound. The creepy and hypnotic cover, the quality, Lou's deadpan, talky and elegant voice, the realistic lyrics with a mix of humor, glamor and nihilism, Mick Ronson's guitar, David's production... All of this makes Transformer (without fear of saying it) one of the best albums in the history of music.

This song sure made high school years SO much cooler...what a groove❤‍🔥🎶
