Man this music needs to be on Spotify ASAP!

This movie influenced me so much as a teen. After seeing it, I wore silver glitter on my eyelids to school the next day 😄. I had already loved Bowie and other glam music, but Shudder to Think did a fantastic job on emulating that vibe as well. Love this soundtrack!

I met my wife with this line.

I had the soundtrack to velvet goldmine on CD growing up, it’s truly incredible. The film is so much fun, but the music really completes it. I’m not usually someone who likes covers, but the quality control in this was really good, probably thanks to Michael Stipe’s involvement from a musical end. I’m glad I still have that CD, as a lot of the songs (like this one) aren’t on Spotify.

I went to a screening of Velvet Goldmine a week and a half ago, and Craig Wedren performed this song and "Hot One" live before the film. It was just amazing. I've loved this soundtrack and film for so long.

I'm six-feet down at age twenty-five! What a great song.

A true masterpiece of glam rock n roll!

the whole movie is pretty much a homage to David Bowie, his life and culture shocking music and personality, and the main musical character in the movie (Maxwell Demon) is a mirror to Bowie's Ziggy Stardust.......Curt Wylde was written based on the life and career of Iggy Pop, and Jack Fairie was based on Lou Reed........but yes.......David Bowie indeed.....=)

Curt Wylde is a mixture of Iggy Pop and Lou Reed (hence the Michigan origin and electroshock therapy story). Brian Slade while uses more of David Bowie life, is actually a mixture of another glam rock singer named Jobriath (hence why Brian was open about his sexuality).

Greatest soundtrack of all time.

The reason why they used the actual musicians versions on the soundtrack is because it SOUNDS WAY better... anyone that thinks the actors versions are anywhere close to belter than the original version is mire than likely just a casual listener of music...

I always thought that the similarities to this song and to Mott The Hoople's "All the Young Dudes" were uncanny.

This song is a gem!

Yeah, I lost my full version due to a terrible computer-crash a few weeks ago.. Lost all my music, so thank you soo much for uploading this!

We know why we are all here. It's consistent from begining to end, even making me a fan of some acts I would never listen to otherwise. But we also all know that Shudder To Think is the lynchpin of the album. What could of been painfully hokey in the wrong hands turned into two tracks that will live forever along with UK glam scene.

This version is the clearest on KZread. and im glad the boys from Quadrant 44,with their vicious metal hounds dont come around here anymore.

It has all the emotion of all the young dudes..

"…Your poison doesn't hurt me, no Tender wine disguised in a milk-fat fair kiddie show. I'm here to celebrate the one below At last I've heard from good God above As the slap on my ass by a lipstick-kissed elbow glove…" Inspiration from the asteroid belt between the moons of Xarzus 7...

Best Bit Of The Whole Amazing Film.

one of my favourite songs, for sure.

Great Song, remember David Bowie!

Masterpiece

I prefer the movie version...

@ironbuttermilk Because the vocals in the movie were done by actor Jonathan Rhys-Meyer (the guy who played Brian Slade), instead of the lead singer of the band who actually wrote the song (Shudder To Think).

My favorite version. :)

thanks for putting the whole song on here

As long as I understood (and if I got it right) Bowie didn't want his music on this movie. They solved the absence just pretty fine if I can say.

maravillosa beauty song i remember you babe

Craig is perfect

why didn't they just make an album with the songs from the movie, sung by the actors :/ i love the songs so much but i don't like the versions on the soundtrack. the voices either don't fit or the tunes are completely different like for example "sebastian". sucks :(

Thanks for posting. This gives "All The Young Dudes" a lil run for its money! I fancy the Shudder vox best. Sorry Jonathan...

Don't get me wrong Shudder to Think did a fantastic job with this version but I honestly prefer JRM's version from the movie to me he made the song that much more. But with this version I do really like how it's the full song, it's such a good song!

i think this movie is quite a bit Jobriath as well...

Personally I prefer the movie version's vocal performance, but this version of whole song is better overall
