Watch: Lou Reed/Metallica Perform Lulu ‘Iced Honey’ (Live on Jools Holland)

Lou Reed and Metallica have performed the song Iced Honey from their recent collaboration album Lulu, live for the first time on Jools Holland this morning. They also did a version of The Velvet Undergrounds classic song White Light/White Heat. You can view both videos below.

Lulu is named and based after the classic Frank Wedekind’s femme fatale “Lulu” plays Earth Spirit and Pandora’s Box, which tell a story of a young abused dancer’s life and relationships and are now collectively known as the Lulu Plays. Since their publication in the early 1900s, the plays have been the inspiration for a silent film Pandora’s Box, in 1929, an opera, and countless other creative endeavours.
