Sweet Jane

There are a lot of different versions of this song, this was the first I ever heard and it will always hold a special place for me. From the classic album All the Young Dudes, Tonight, I present to you, Sweet Jane - performed by Mott the Hoople.

2. Bowie is feeding Hunter the lyrics during the recording...

because he was unenthusiastic about recording the song and refused to learn them.
Hunter: "I just didn't get the big deal about Lou Reed. This little cretin comes walking into the room and David goes all apeshit for him"

Unenthusiastic or not, it is a great performance of a great song.
