Lyrics:
I'm waiting for my man
Twenty-six dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington, 125
Feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive
I'm waiting for my man
Hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown?
Hey, white boy, you chasin' our women around?
Oh pardon me sir, it's furthest from my mind
I'm just lookin' for a dear, dear friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man
Here he comes, he's all dressed in black
PR shoes and a big straw hat
He's never early, he's always late
First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait
I'm waiting for my man
Oh, work it now
Up to a Brownstone, up three flights of stairs
Everybody's pinned you, but nobody cares
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
Ah, then you gotta split because you got no time to waste
I'm waiting for my man
Baby don't you holler, darlin' don't you bawl and shout
I'm feeling good, you know I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good, I'm feeling, oh, so fine
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
I'm waiting for my man
Walk it home
Oh, it's alright
Huh huh

He's never early. He's always late. I'm waiting for my man.
That beautiful energy of Matt
I am a simple man, i see new release from Matt Berninger i click
how beautiful life is like Matt's voice
“The Man” Matt Berninger.
Great version from The National's singer/songwriter
Matt is certainly aging gracefully
Best velvet underground cover so far 👍

I'm waiting to dance with THE man : Matt Berninger !!!!
Aahhhh. Today's going to be good. My favorite musician since 2010 uploaded today!!!! It will be brilliant, of course ...bc its Matt B.💯💃🎀 Everything he touches turns Gold! "You're the tall kingdom I surround.. think I better follow you around. "- brainy- The national. Yep..i knew pretty early on he was a poet and he'd be up there with leonard cohen in my book. Their show in Cincinnati Ohio, was tear inducing. Drove from cape may NJ. Completely worth it..that's a day I'd like to do over again...lol. Just to be there when the 1st chord base drums of runaway starts !!!! 💞💯🎶🎀

@@Hotllamarama I forget the year I saw them now? Sounds like show you saw might've been outside?? 1st show I saw was an inside show in Cincinnati. Beautiful place. Then the following summer we saw them closer to home in Philadelphia. Back to back summers. For me that Cincinnati show was the best tho. But it was also my 1st time seeing them. I'd been playing them for years at this point and both my hubby and I were insane fans. Lol. But even still ...I didn't expect I'd be in tears hearing them live - (I'm not that person🤦🏻)...like it was the 60s with the Beatles in front of me. 😂 But yeah I WAS THAT PERSON😜 But its ok bc imo they're WAY WAY better then the Beatles and deserving of tears! .. lol.
This is like turning a stunning huge hard rock into a small pinky oval piece of glass.
Hello, I've to say thank you, your music makes my days greatest and I love his lyrics, your voice and your stile you're only one in the music.
OMG I love this!👏

Who ever said it's better? needs to re-think their whole life because its not anywhere near as good as the original. Its not a hard song to perform, the magic is from when they wrote it originally and played it live. I love John cales rendition from 1983/84 it's amazing and wild and really blows you away, John cale is still making music and performing to this day. Proper Welshman,
💙
Nice one Matt!
in french we say - vous avez la classe
Reminds me of one of the best bands from the 80s, Jesus + Marychain.
why isn't this version on the tribute record? it's much better
I miss the National. Matt kinda makes me sad.
Wish the version on the VU cd sounded like this...
Matt sings like Elvis on this cover
Missing Lou but this makes it a little easier.
The Velvets would not approve Mo would cringe at those drums😂
HE. JUST. DOENST. UNDERSTAND. THE. V.U.
This is the best thing I’ve heard in forever but that girl loves herself too much.

Hello all - I love this version of the song. It is a classic of course and Bowie covered it well too. I believe there is great respect amongst the artists for the original. Can someone tell me who the members of the band in the video are and who the woman is that does the backing vocals? This is a solid video and really great recording. I’m just interested in learning about the artist in the video as they each and everyone of them is really talented - drums, guitar, piano and backing vocals. I can’t seem to find the info on line - any and all help is most welcome. Thank you! Cheers!

On the description it says that this song will be on a VU tribute album but I guess this will be the only cover by Matt
Feels random that a Tokio Hotel music video brought me here. 🤔 I wonder the relevance.

A new Morrissey?? Sliced almost with tiny bits of Ian Curtis. Just wishing. He needs to hit Texas hard they would really show him the love. Dallas anyway.
Simply beautiful, he moves and I see seduction.
Es mejor la versión original por mucho. El es el de The National? La única vez que lo he visto, se estaba casi cayendo en el Vive Latino del 2011.
If Bono had done such a cheesy straight rock version of this he would have been crucified. Sounds suspiciously like Steets Have No Name and not a big fan of the dad dancing. Still love The National.

You obviously do not love The National.
Sounds like piggybacking on something you have no clue about… Just saying. European son now that sounds amazing! I think he should go solo. His solo album sounds much much better than the national’s latest ones
Who is this guy, why is he in my recommended and why is he playing the velvet underground

That’s Matt Berninger. He’s best known for his work as the lead vocals of the National, a critically acclaimed indie rock band. For the past year or two he’s been doing a lot of solo work, and at some point that apparently involved contributing to a velvet underground tribute album. To an outsider looking in, I can see why this video kinda looks like some random 50 year old dad with a record deal whose desperately trying to be a rock star, but his other work is actually really good, and his voice is fucking brilliant when he uses it correctly. I thought this was pretty fun, but I will admit that this performance probably isn’t a good first impression of Matt.
No
like his work on the National but this cover ..is....weak.....totally not gettimg the mood of the song..
This is so much better than the original. Lou is far too arrogant to convincingly apologize to anyone ...
This is a bit too earnest. Like someone who read a bit of Rimbaud deciding to run guns on a lark. Matt seems a good dude, flawed like all us mortals are, but you can't get in Lou's head to do a tune and you need to. Lou was all sorts of...fucked up? Not a clinical term: Nasty. Brilliant. Caustic. Unique. Matt is not that. This is glorified karaoke...

Turning the coolest band on earth into cornball theatrics....not a good look.
Boring!
Not a fan of whatever this is… I’ll stick to the original.
Vocal is too muted barely listening it
This is terrible. Everyone should be embarrassed.
I know I'll get stick for this, and I love the national, but that was dreadful. It was like a Vic reeves club singer version.
He didn't get it, he fucked up the song. Terrible experience.
Well performed, seems to loose the importance of the song.
This is terrible.
Not good
I agree with Anthony. Horrible cover
Wow this isn’t good at all.
