Lou Reed visualizes a lot of things that are not good, like mayonnaise soda, in "What's Good," another track off a movie soundtrack that people really seemed to like at the time for some reason
I love this because I was very much a pop only guy during this time so learning about stuff that was not in my radar then is great. Also I am still pretty much a pop only guy haha
I didn't achieve a full music awakening until about mid 1994, so even some of the pop hits weren't on my radar at the time. Definitely wasn't listening to late-stage Lou Reed in 1992, though Right Said Fred was pretty unavoidable, even for music-naive preteen Matt!
I loved Until The End Of The World when it came out - deeply absorbing, emotional, funny, and futuristic. Not sure how it holds up now. The soundtrack is terrific, but I do think What's Good makes a lot more sense on Magic & Loss, Lou Reed's magnificent album about cancer, dying, and death. The soundtrack is also notable for having the only Depeche Mode song I've ever chosen to listen to more than once - love it, in fact. Even a stopped clock...

"...Even though I’d argue it’s not one of the band’s signature tracks, “Bad Luck”..."
Same. I've always been a little surprised that "When She Begins" wasn't chosen instead.
