@@gogoyubari366 you read his book and you realise the actual extent of his being a truly good human being. If you read anyone's autobiography expecting to discover they were perfect, then you know it was all a lie. Jonesy is and always was a desperately damaged and flawed human being who hurt some people, but no worse than he was hurt. God knows he wishes he was stronger, more courageous, but he's survived where so many others didn't. That's called life. He's a good man.
@@kokorozz Can't call what singing? He was the Pistols original singer. He Friggin In the Riggin' on the Swindle soundtrack, then after the Pistols broke up he was the singer in the Professionals and his solo stuff, sung some songs with the NB Outsiders, etc. I've always thought he was a good rock singer and he's gotten a lot better over the years. Check out his instagram, he covers a lot of songs and he really can sing.
This is very fitting as Steve was hooked on Heroin for a number of years, you can tell he he is thinking back to those dark times through the lyrics of this song.. this was from the heart
@@lysanderofsparta3708 Songs can mean different things to different people. Lou was kind of into heroin and whether he explicitly wrote this “about” heroin or not it has been used in connection/linked with drug use often, like in Trainspotting. It’s a very bittersweet song.
I've been in love with Steve since i was a kid. My brother introduced me to the sex pistols and my heart just melted when i Saw Steve Jones. I love his version of this song Better than the original
Steve can sing. He was singing before he was a guitarist. He said originally the guitar was just a prop so he’d have something to do with his hands. Then he took a bunch of speed and played with records until he learned to play basic stuff. So drugs aren’t all bad kids.
It really is, Steve does a great job and the slide guitar adds a sense of melancholy. I've always been a fan of Steve's and this really shows what he's capable of and makes all those "the Pistols couldn't play" idiots look like the fools they are.
Steve can do anything! From awesome "punk n' roll" with the Pistols ,Professionals and Neurotic Outsiders to great hard rock (his solo material). Now he shows that he can do slower stuff superbly as well! Such a pity that such a great musician has released just a few albums...
Lou's second most well known song. And Lou, I read, was stricken with incredible jelousity and that's where this song stems from, but damn,- is it so good.
Well done Steve, Vanessa, and Kirk, beatuiful combination of cello, bottleneck, and rythem guitar, the intro is awesome Kirk, and the cello finale? that just hits the spot! When I'm "gonna reap just what I sowed" so to speak this is on my play list, x
Steve you are and always will be the best rock 'n' roll rhythm guitarist who ever lived. You were the heart of the Pistols and you have matured into something even finer here. And you still look cool AF This Scouser here has always loved you, even tho you're a cockney hehe
this was incredible. Been such a Steve Jones fan since the Professionals and his solo work and of course the Neurotic Outsiders. My wish was that this would be a single somewhere. I mean i did convert it to mp3 format so i can listen to it whenever but still it would b nice.
You have to look for it. I mean I'm a Steve Jones fan and I just stumbled on it by doing a Steve Jones search. Plus not many people know who Steve Jones is. I mean Pistols fans do, and guitar players do but outside of that he's not that well known. Most kids today have no idea who he is.
@holloween jack I’m pretty sure money was the motivating factor. He wasn’t a social worker, he was an entrepreneur trying concept after concept before coming up with Sex, the shop. The band was just another money making idea

Always love his singing. From the late Pistols stuff, trough Professionals and his solo albums.
My Wife's and myself's Wedding Song. Thank You Steve Jones xxx
who would ever have thought Sex Pistol Steve would one day play unplugged covers of Lou Reed? I have to admit I'm impressed. Good job Jonesy
Steve Jones is a good guy
Not really, read his book.

My God this is a masterpiece.
A lou Reed masterpiece
@@victormorgado5318 yes, but Jonesy owned this entirely. It is a masterpiece in its own right.
Totally underappreciated talent God save the Steve
Wow, Steve this is simply beautiful. Nice one Jonesey ❤️
What a passion for the lyrics and music. I've never seen Steve do anything like this. Excellent Steve 😊
The older I get the more I'm amazed with him.
Best guitarist ever.
Superb son. Not too shabby from an 'erbert off the Bush
Well ......I have to say I wasn't expecting this beauty!
I didn't know Steve could sing. Iove this cover.
He's been singing since the Sex Pistols days :)
@@Sabbatius527 You can't call that singing :)

The song isn't about heroin. Lou Reed wrote it for his first wife Bettye Kronstadt.
@@lysanderofsparta3708 Correct. The usual "I-know-all" guys on the net ....

@@fabiopunk1661 As opposed to snarky know-it-alls on the internet who dictate song meanings to strangers?
@@Vichedges And it has nothing to do with heroin.
What a talent Steve Jones is and I don't say that lightly...
Great Steve
I've been in love with Steve since i was a kid. My brother introduced me to the sex pistols and my heart just melted when i Saw Steve Jones.
I love his version of this song Better than the original
From the Heart.
What a gift Steve is to this dirty world.
Steve Jones is superb. Cant say anymore. I am speachless. Very great version. :) jon fisher
can't believe how great this is the best cover of it ever steve jones a true legend
I think it’s the best version, period.
Steve Jones is Brilliant ! Oh, oh my ! Perfect Day by alou Reed is good for Steve Jones, love this ! ❤ - jon fisher
Never thought of Steve Jones as being much of a singer, but he does a surprisingly good job with this.
Steve can sing. He was singing before he was a guitarist.
He said originally the guitar was just a prop so he’d have something to do with his hands. Then he took a bunch of speed and played with records until he learned to play basic stuff.
So drugs aren’t all bad kids.
Beautiful. Lovely version. God Bless Steve and his friends.
apart from the original this is the best version of this I've ever heard classic song & Steve Joes a Real Legend.
Honestly I think I prefer it to the original. They're both great though.
Jones not Joes.
It's so good to go back to the simple...GREAT...little...things!
Beautiful song .. done superbly! So wonderful Steve! Great cello and guitar 🎸 too!
Awesome, Take a bow Steve
He has aged well as a musician..... beautiful voice.
Brilliant Jonesy.
Good cover by a very talented musician.
best cover i know from this song. Perfect. Such good taste
It really is, Steve does a great job and the slide guitar adds a sense of melancholy. I've always been a fan of Steve's and this really shows what he's capable of and makes all those "the Pistols couldn't play" idiots look like the fools they are.
The Best cover of this song of Lou!
Real the Best cover❤️

You made me forget myself, I thought I was someone else, someone good- Not many lines better then these ones here.
And very apt for Jonesy.
Well done Steve, Vanessa, and Kirk, beatuiful combination of cello, bottleneck, and rythem guitar, the intro is awesome Kirk, and the cello finale? that just hits the spot! When I'm "gonna reap just what I sowed" so to speak this is on my play list, x

This is stunning ❤️
Steve, you and Glen forever tarnished by the Pistols label but still great musicians ploughing your own furough. God bless❤❤
What a dumb thing to say.
this was incredible. Been such a Steve Jones fan since the Professionals and his solo work and of course the Neurotic Outsiders. My wish was that this would be a single somewhere. I mean i did convert it to mp3 format so i can listen to it whenever but still it would b nice.
I listened so many times and love it.
Surprised that there are not more views for this. It's a lovely cover version. Will post it to my tumblr.
You have to look for it. I mean I'm a Steve Jones fan and I just stumbled on it by doing a Steve Jones search.

Nice 1 steve..."LEGEND"
This makes me crave pie and mash.
cooks in Shepherds Bush has shut now though that's the only real Pie & Mash that's where Paul & Steve used to go I used to go there with my mum & dad
@holloween jack I’m pretty sure money was the motivating factor. He wasn’t a social worker, he was an entrepreneur trying concept after concept before coming up with Sex, the shop. The band was just another money making idea
You can order online at Manze, they delivery frozen pie mast and liquor
