The Velvet Underground - Lady Godiva's Operation mp3 download

Collective Soul basically took the riff for the song Shine.

Lou almost got a lobotomy to “cure” his weirdness as a kid. Thus the inspiration for this

check out the version by Chapterhouse..not as good..but a worthy cover!

What I’m getting from the lyrics is that this is a sex change operation that goes wrong and the patient dies when they’re cutting off his penis. Am I wrong?

For its time this is an awesome song. If they had changed that tempo and mix it up a bit. It needs a part thats a bit faster.

when i first got into weed this is what i would be bumpin too at night. id wait for parents to go to sleep, then id go outside in the backyard porch, lay on the couch bumpin to this and smoking a phat joint, tripping frickin balls..man i miss back then, now i guess i got used to weed and its not so fun anymore

Having listened to this song for many years, does anyone else hear whispering in the background just over half way through, but cannot hear what being said? Does anyone else hear this, and possibly know what been whispered??

just cant get over this song. every VU song when heard for the first time plays in your head for atleast 2 months

These guys were in a completely different musical galaxy, sounding like no other band of the era and beyond.
