Agreed.  However, I kind of hate Niko.  A lot.

Sometimes I don't mind her other times she bothers me, though I heard some of her solo stuff and really liked it.

It's like she is permanently off key.  Never heard any of her solo stuff though.

try to find the song, "I'm Not Saying"....soooo good.

but back on topic...I'm definitely indebted to the Velvet Underground, because without them we wouldnt have Sonic Youth

Yeah, they're great.

I have a solo Neko album and I like it a lot.

just for the record....the correct spelling is Nico.....not trying to be a dick, just pointing that out.

Neko is how 'Neko Case' (of her own and New Pornographers fame) spells her name

I'm just listening to Velvet Underground Live: 1969 Vol. 1 and this shit hasn't aged one bit. Is there anyother band where everything they ever released was pure gold.  I could listen to "What Goes On" all day without getting sick of it.

I resent my statement. That song in the new Toy Machine video is pretty fucking catchy
