Composed and sung by Lou Reed and performed by The Velvet Underground this song was included on the group's 1969 album release - The Velvet Underground.
The interweb suggests that despite the name this song was all about someone whose eyes were hazel. Reed noted in his book Between Thought and Expression the song is said to have been inspired by Shelley Albin - his first love. Who at the time was married to another man.
A couple of months ago I posted the original recording. Today is a reprise cover performed live by a couple of my favorite artists - Sheryl Crow and Emmylou Harris.
