New Age (The Velvet Underground song)
"New Age" is the fifth song on the 1970 The Velvet Underground album "Loaded".
It is one of the songs that feature Doug Yule on vocals, encouraged by main singer and songwriter Lou Reed.
The song also appears on , with Reed on vocals, singing an earlier, significantly different version of the lyrics.
In its original form, it was about Reed's girlfriend at the time, Shelley Albin, and included a possible reference to Reed's bisexuality: "It seems to be my fancy to make it with Frank and Nancy.
" The later, studio version is written from the point of view of a fan addressing a "fat blonde actress."
When the album was released, this song caused controversy.
Reed, who had left the band a month before, stated that his original versions of "Sweet JaneRock and Roll", and "New Age" were corrupted.
Doug Yule, on the other hand, insists that Reed's mixes were respected.
The 1997 "Fully Loaded" issue of the "Loaded" album includes an alternate version of "New Age", along with the other previously "corrupted" songs, subtitled "full-length version".
It is about a minute longer than the LP version.

His second, "Transformer" (1972), was produced by David Bowie and arranged by Mick Ronson, and brought mainstream recognition.

"Rock 'n' Roll Animal" (a live album released in 1974) sold strongly, and "Sally Can't Dance" (1974) peaked at No. 10 on the "Billboard" 200; but for a long period after, Reed's work did not translate into sales, leading him deeper into drug addiction and alcoholism.
Reed cleaned up in the early 1980s, and gradually returned to prominence with "New Sensations" (1984), reaching a critical and commercial career peak with his 1989 album "New York".
Reed participated in the reformation of the Velvet Underground in the 1990s, and made several more albums, including a collaboration album with John Cale titled "Songs for Drella" which was a tribute to their former mentor Andy Warhol. "
Magic and Loss" (1992) would become Reed's highest-charting album on the UK Albums Chart, peaking at No. 6.
He contributed music to two theatrical interpretations of 19th century writers, one of which he developed into an album titled "The Raven".
He married his third wife Laurie Anderson in 2008, and recorded the collaboration album "Lulu" with Metallica.
