His delivery is controlled mania, fearful and rebellious and so vulnerable.
Although originally written about the AIDS crisis, the song has taken on an added layer of sadness following Reed's own death three years ago just try not to get emotional when he says "See you next year at the Halloween parade" at the end of the song.
