------------------------
"Venus in Furs" is a song by the Velvet Underground, written by Lou Reed and originally released on the band's 1967 debut album The Velvet Underground & Nico.
Inspired by the book of the same name by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, the song includes sexual themes of sadomasochism and bondage.
"Venus in Furs" was also released as a single on several occasions; in 1988 in the UK and as a live single in France and the UK, in 1993 and 1994 respectively. This live version appears on the 1993 live album Live MCMXCIII.
Recording
"Venus in Furs" was one of three songs to be re-recorded, in May 1966 at TTG Studios in Hollywood, before appearing on the final mix of The Velvet Underground & Nico (the other two being "Heroin" and "I'm Waiting for the Man"). The arrangement features John Cale's electric viola as well as two tracks of Lou Reed's electric guitar, one tuned to D G C F A C and the other in ostrich tuning. Guitarist Sterling Morrison played bass guitar on the song, but according to Cale, who was the band's usual bassist, Morrison never cared for playing the instrument. The backbeat consists of two bass drum beats and one tambourine hit, played at a slow pace by Maureen Tucker.
Meaning
In his essay "Venus in Furs by the Velvet Underground", Erich Kuersten writes:
"There is no intro or buildup to the song; the track starts as if you opened a door to a decadent Marrakesh S&M/opium den, a blast of air-conditioned Middle Eastern menace with a plodding beat that's the missing link between "Bolero" and Led Zeppelin's version of "When the Levee Breaks".
Morrison cited "Venus in Furs" as his favorite Velvet Underground song, as he believed it was where the band achieved the sound that they had sought.
Legacy
In 2012, Paste ranked the song number nine on their list of the 20 greatest Velvet Underground songs, and in 2021, The Guardian placed the song at number three on their list of the 30 greatest Velvet Underground songs.
In film and TV
In 1965, the Velvet Underground appeared in Piero Heliczer's underground film, Venus in Furs, which was named for the song. Heliczer, the Velvets, and the other performers were featured in a CBS News segment titled "The Making of an Underground Film" which aired in December of that year.
A version of the song is performed by the fictional band Nürnberg 47, played by the real Swedish band Reeperbahn, in the 1983 film G.
The song is featured in Gus Van Sant's 2005 film Last Days, a fictionalized account of the last days of a musician, loosely based on Kurt Cobain.
In the TV series Being Human, the song is used prominently in season 2, episode 5.
A version of the song was specially recorded by Julian Casablancas for the HBO television series Vinyl. It appeared on the soundtrack of the second episode during a flashback to Andy Warhol's Factory, alongside "Run Run Run".
The song is featured in season 2, episode 2 of the series POSE as the character Elektra enters the Hellfire Club for a dominatrix session.
Pat Robitaille's cover of the song was featured in season 1, episode 1 of the Netflix series You.
