Lou Reed praises Winehouse, Killers
The Velvet Underground's Lou Reed has claimed that Amy Winehouse and The Killers are his favourite new artists.

The veteran rocker wished the troubled 'Rehab' singer well, while praising her Back To Black album in an interview.

Reed told Pitchfork: "I like Amy Winehouse - I hope everything's ok with her, but what a great song."

Referring to his new collaboration with The Killers on the track 'Tranquilize', which is due to appear on their forthcoming rarities album, the singer commented: "The Killers are a genuinely great band."
