Literary Theory, Ancient and Modern

First, and foremost:

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! And if you do not celebrate this non-holiday, then, feel free to hate me because I just alluded to a holiday that you do not celebrate...

AND NOW FOR THE REAL REASON WHY I AM POSTING:

I was in class on Tuesday, in my literary theory class, and all of a sudden my professor--man of almost sixty years old--started singing:

"Here she comes, you better watch your step
She's going to break your heart in two."

And I began laughing, and he looked in my direction, and asked, "Do you know this song?" And I shook my head, in agreement, and kept on laughing. The song is "Femme Fatale" by The Velvet Underground from their 1967 released album The Velvet Underground and Nico, featuring lead vocals by Nico.

THE VU is an American Band from the mid-sixties. They were definitely an experimental band, coming into phase before the punk era, making them simply a pre-punk band.

New artists that try to mock them are: Viva Voce, Pop Levi, and perhaps, The Dandy Warhols.

(Bollocks, I actually posted this right at 12 a.m. but it kept publishing it at three minutes earlier, and this is the "newer" version, which has my bloody initials, sorry for that!)


Here goes an actual video of The VU AND NICO...
