I agree, T.O. Mann.  Great song, talented artist.

I'm not sure what your point is, though.  Some people have called it transphobic - I guess they have the right to an opinion.  You and I both disagree with that, but I have no idea what you think it has to do with bill C-16. 

If you think that C-16 will mean Lou Reed is at risk, you're wrong.  Canadian constitutional law contains a very strict definition of what constitutes hate speech, and Take a Walk on the Wild Side doesn't even come close.
