Michael McLoughlin This is a great recording of a great song. I don't understand how anyone could not like this recording. At least not "Anyone who had a heart"
Anyone who ever had a heart wouldn't turn around and break it And anyone who's ever played a part wouldn't turn around and hate it Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Oh, Sweet-Sweet Jane Waitin' for Jimmy down by the alley waitin' there for him to come home Waitin' down on another corner figurin' ways to get back home Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Oh, Sweet-Sweet Jane Anyone who ever had a dream anyone who's ever played a part Anyone who's gonna live lonely anyone who's ever split apart Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet-Sweet Jane Heavenly wine and roses seem to whisper to me, when you smile Heavenly wine and roses seem to whisper to me, when you smile La-la-la-la, na-na-na na-na-na-na, na-na-na La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la la-la-la-la, la-la-la Oh, Sweet Jane Sweet-Sweet Jane
This version is by far the best. I love the omission of bm and slowing things down. the changed around lyrics help, but what makes it great is the lead guitar melody with the hammer-on of the rhythm on the g chord. Killer
Cowboy Junkies version is modeled after this version! I always wondered where they learned the version that they used as the basis for their cover (which is fabulous), since it wasn't the version from the VU album, nor was it an early demo version. Glad to finally find this version and have the mystery solved!
Me sorprendió escucharla en la radio, Sweet Jane debe ser una de las canciones más hermosas jamás escritas, pero la dulzura de esta versión sobrepasa a la gentileza del álbum y a la energía de Rock and Roll Animal.
Standin' on a corner Suitcase in my hand Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest And me I'm in a rock 'n' roll band. Huh. Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim Ya know, those were different times All, all the poets studied rules of verse And those ladies, they rolled their eyes Sweet Jane! whoa! sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! sweet Jane! I'll tell ya sump'n' now Jack, he is a banker And Jane, she is a clerk And both of them save their monies When they get home from work Oooh! Sittin' down by the fire, ohhh! The radio does play The classical music there, Jim "The March of the Wooden Soldiers" All you protest kids You can hear Jack say (Get ready ya'll) Sweet jane! (C'mon baby doll) Sweet jane! oh-oh-a! sweet jane! Some people, they like to go out dancin' And other peoples, they have to work, just watch me now And there's even some evil mothers Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt You know that, women never really feign And that villains always blink their eyes, oooh! And that, you know, children are the only ones who blush And that life is just to die But anyone who ever had a heart, ohh! They wouldn't turn around and break it And anyone who's ever played a part, ohh! They wouldn't turn around and hate it Heavenly wine and roses Seem to whisper to her when he smiles Heavenly wine and roses Seem to whisper to her, hey when she smiles
Perfect end to an amazing box set. Wish I had known about it when it came out. I could have grabbed one. As it is now, the only one I've come across is the vinyl box and it is selling for around $900! That's just absurd. Anyway, glad I got to hear it. Thanks for posting.
I heard Miley Cyrus singing this song today and it was beautiful she nailed it do you ever get a chance to hear her sing it listen it's awesome always love this song Go Miley Cyrus
This version is my favorite.It brings out the loneliness and hopeless dreams in us.I love it.God bless you if you're listening to this song.

+thenobs123 The hammer-on. That's everything.
I love the mid section, not so much for it, but for coming back out of it into the chorus, it's so powerful.
@@Rozmatronicles no u
Not to mention the bass fills on the bridge.
Definitely the best version

Live at the Matrix one of the best live albums
Me sorprendió escucharla en la radio, Sweet Jane debe ser una de las canciones más hermosas jamás escritas, pero la dulzura de esta versión sobrepasa a la gentileza del álbum y a la energía de Rock and Roll Animal.
Sooooooo Beautiful! Best version ever ,makes me cry.
I think the best version is their live version in Paris 1974...Unfortunately I can't find a good recording :/
Best version.
I remember seeing them in a small cafe in Philly @ 1968, Mo was their drummer (stand up drum set). I liked their music.
my fav of all ..heavenly wine and roses seem to whisper to me when you smile. ..
La mejor versión de todas, la atmósfera que genera es hermosa
BEST VERSION... right in the feelings
Sweet Mary Jane ...also , Love this song...
Standin' on a corner
Suitcase in my hand
Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest
And me I'm in a rock 'n' roll band. Huh.
Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim
Ya know, those were different times
All, all the poets studied rules of verse
And those ladies, they rolled their eyes
Sweet Jane! whoa! sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! sweet Jane!
I'll tell ya sump'n' now
Jack, he is a banker
And Jane, she is a clerk
And both of them save their monies
When they get home from work
Oooh! Sittin' down by the fire, ohhh!
The radio does play
The classical music there, Jim
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers"
All you protest kids
You can hear Jack say
(Get ready ya'll)
Sweet jane! (C'mon baby doll)
Sweet jane! oh-oh-a! sweet jane!
Some people, they like to go out dancin'
And other peoples, they have to work, just watch me now
And there's even some evil mothers
Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt
You know that, women never really feign
And that villains always blink their eyes, oooh!
And that, you know, children are the only ones who blush
And that life is just to die
But anyone who ever had a heart, ohh!
They wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who's ever played a part, ohh!
They wouldn't turn around and hate it
Heavenly wine and roses
Seem to whisper to her when he smiles
Heavenly wine and roses
Seem to whisper to her, hey when she smiles
Yes, these are the lyrics to the great studio version. Not what we’re hearing here though. Lou liked to change things up.
One of the coolest songs around
Perfect end to an amazing box set. Wish I had known about it when it came out. I could have grabbed one. As it is now, the only one I've come across is the vinyl box and it is selling for around $900! That's just absurd. Anyway, glad I got to hear it. Thanks for posting.
definitely the best version. gold. what a love song! heck yeah!
been listening to this for 1000000000 years and never heard the "sweet jane" whisper at the beginning until today. wow

Love this.

I'm assuming this is the version Cowboy Junkies based their cover off of
What concert is this from?
Talk Show Host It's from '1969 The Velvet Underground Live'
Sterling Morisson
I heard Miley Cyrus singing this song today and it was beautiful she nailed it do you ever get a chance to hear her sing it listen it's awesome always love this song Go Miley Cyrus
I heard it for the first time yesterday and I agree that it is a great cover version
ua-cam.com/video/eIwiODeHHwc/v-deo.html
totally bro, miley rocks
Wrong album cover
Am I the only one that thinks this song sounds weird without the higher harmony?
This version makes me laugh. I really don't like it now, as I haven't liked it when I heard it for a very first time.
Worst version ever
Worst opinion ...ever
@@leesakowski9145 I agree; I was young and stupid ... now I'm beggining to see the light
@@asolarasolarasolar Thankyou ...all the best.
I would agree it’s not a god version, but it inspired the GOAT Cowboy Junkies version.
I love this song...,,,they nail it!!!
