Song for Sunday Night

OK, I've never repeated a song on here before, but after seeing Beautiful Darling, I've been singing Candy Says all week.  Of course I love the original, but this performance, by Antony & Lou Reed, just about puts me in a sobbing heap.  For the second time.

Great video and what a great night for NYC tonight!

Yes, & yes! This version of the song just kills me. Antony's singing is haunting, & the looks between him and the aging Reed are so tender. Aaagh! Antony does amazing covers - his Crazy in Love is also spine-tingling.

I also like their version of A Perfect Day.
