SissyReed 578 Posted November 13, 2016 Surely the background vocals are the part she wanted Lou Reed to sing? no, actually she wanted to make a totally different song with him but he died before it happened so she decided to put the verse "while i sing lou reed" to brooklyn baby, at least that's what i heard! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

reputation 6,319 Posted November 20, 2016 I wonder if Brooklyn Baby has a deeper meaning. She's used it in previous songs with very different tones 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SissyReed 578 Posted November 22, 2016 I wonder if Brooklyn Baby has a deeper meaning. She's used it in previous songs with very different tones i think she's just referencing to "Coney Island Baby" by Lou Reed 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotshot2am 18,781 Posted February 27, 2023 Turns out Seth Kauffman didn't do background vocals on Brooklyn Baby, it was Leon Michels https://reddit.com/r/lanadelrey/comments/11dip46/mystery_vocals_on_brooklyn_baby_by_ldr/ 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
