Velvet Goldmine (song)
"Velvet Goldmine" is a song written by David Bowie and recorded during "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" sessions.
Recorded on 11 November 1971, the song did not make it onto the album despite being chalked up on the original master tapes running order.
Its slot was effectively replaced by "Starman" after Bowie was told by RCA's A&R department that they needed a "hit single" for the album.
The song was originally titled and demoed as He's a Goldmine.
A mid-tempo rock song, it very much fitted in with the heavier cuts on "Ziggy" and contains the usual craftsmanship of Mick Ronson's Les Paul signature guitar licks.
In a radio interview in 1972 (prior to it being dropped from the album)
Bowie said he felt "Velvet Goldmine" was a "lovely thing" and "very David Bowie".
"Velvet Goldmine" was eventually released as the B-side (along with "Changes") of the UK re-release of "Space Oddity" in 1975 which went to Number 1 in the UK singles charts and gave Bowie his first UK chart topper.
Bowie, who had moved to LA at the time of the release said later of the song's inclusion "The whole thing came out without my having a chance to listen to the mix.
Somebody else had mixed it - an extraordinary move".
Although it was originally thought that Bowie wrote the song as a description of him making out with another man, it was claimed by Bowie in 1990 that he was writing in the third person and talking to/worshipping Ziggy Stardust through a groupie's eyes: "You got crazy legs, you got amazing head
, You got rings on your fingers and your hair's hot red..."
Social pressures and RCA's managerial stance against suggestive or provocative lyrics at the time resulted in Bowie rewriting the song to be slightly more ambiguous compared to the demo, although it was still considered too risqué a song (even after watering down the lyrics) to be released in 1972.
"You're my taste, my trip, I'll be your master zip,
I'll suck your hair for kicks
, you make me jump to my feet, So gimee your hand, gimee your sound, Let my seed wash your face, I'm falling up
, I can't stand...
" A similar fate befell "Sweet Head", another rocker with sexual lyrics that was dropped from "Ziggy" in favour of a cover of the MOR song "
It Ain't Easy".
The song title inspired the name of the 1998 film "Velvet Goldmine" starring Jonathan Rhys-Myers but Bowie refused to license the song to the film makers after reading the script and realising
it was a blatant parody of his Ziggy Stardust character.
Despite being originally only released as a B-side, this song has become very popular amongst fans and has subsequently appeared on several "best of" compilations.
The structure and chords at the end of the song (the melodious humming through to fade out) were later borrowed for Bowie's 1978 "Revolutionary Song" which he wrote for the "Just a Gigolo" movie and soundtrack under the name "The Rebels".

David Bowie
David Robert Jones (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016), known professionally as David Bowie , was an English singer-songwriter and actor.
He was a leading figure in the music industry and is considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, acclaimed by critics and musicians, particularly for his innovative work during the 1970s.
His career was marked by reinvention and visual presentation, with his music and stagecraft having a significant impact on popular music.
During his lifetime, his record sales, estimated at 140 million albums worldwide, made him one of the world's best-selling music artists.
In the UK, he was awarded ten platinum album certifications, eleven gold and eight silver, and released eleven number-one albums.
In the US, he received five platinum and nine gold certifications.
He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
Born in Brixton, South London, Bowie developed an interest in music as a child, eventually studying art, music and design before embarking on a professional career as a musician in 1963.
"Space Oddity" became his first top-five entry on the UK Singles Chart after its release in July 1969.
After a period of experimentation, he re-emerged in 1972 during the glam rock era with his flamboyant and androgynous alter ego Ziggy Stardust.
The character was spearheaded by the success of his single "Starman" and album "
The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars", which won him widespread popularity.
In 1975, Bowie's style shifted radically towards a sound he characterised as "plastic soul", initially alienating many of his UK devotees but garnering him his first major US crossover success with the number-one single "Fame" and the album "Young Americans".
In 1976, Bowie starred in the cult film "
The Man Who Fell to Earth", directed by Nicolas Roeg, and released "Station to Station".
The following year, he further confounded musical expectations with the electronic-inflected album "Low" (1977), the first of three collaborations with Brian Eno that came to be known as the "Berlin Trilogy"Heroes (1977) and "Lodger" (1979) followed; each album reached the UK top five and received lasting critical praise.
After uneven commercial success in the late 1970s, Bowie had UK number ones with the 1980 single "Ashes to Ashes", its parent album "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)", and "Under Pressure", a 1981 collaboration with Queen.
He reached his commercial peak in 1983 with "Let's Dance"; the album's title track topped both UK and US charts.
Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, Bowie continued to experiment with musical styles, including industrial and jungle.
He also continued acting; his roles included Major Jack Celliers in "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence" (1983), Jareth the Goblin King in "Labyrinth" (1986), Pontius Pilate in "The Last Temptation of Christ" (1988), and Nikola Tesla in "The Prestige" (2006), among other film and television appearances and cameos.
He stopped touring after 2004 and his last live performance was at a charity event in 2006.
In 2013, Bowie returned from a decade-long recording hiatus with "The Next Day."
He remained musically active until he died of liver cancer at his home in New York City, two days after his 69th birthday and the release of his final album, "Blackstar" (2016).
