Velvet Goldmine - Baby's On Fire

[@amyc.peters1064]

This is both one of the sexiest covers and scenes in any movie I've ever seen

[@alexonline2340]

agreed. honestly the whole movie is the sexiest thing i’ve ever seen

[@freddybeer]

As good as the music was in this, and it is spectacular, it's the casting that made it! Jonathan and Ewan were EXCEPTIONAL!

[@sastremania]

this movie changed my life

[@eden19966]

Can you believe Jonathan Rhys meyer was only 19 here? Amazing.

[@elardoaquino6110]

No he's 21

[@eden19966]

@@elardoaquino6110 Yeah, that´s right. I thought the movie was from -96, but it is -98. Still a great performance.

He's my template to make my 3d version of Sephiroth (FF7)

[@zexnynex777]

Well we are 47 today 😂 Just watched the Jaime DLux video on this movie called "Rapey Goldmine"

[@eden19966]

Jonathan Rhys Meyer IS the singer on this cover but VIF are the band playing. I have the soundtrack, it stands clearly that JRM is singing this one. You can also hear it if used to his voice.

[@evaearthling]

God, I love this song and video! EARGASM!!!

[@TheNicklees]

It's based on david Bowie and iggy pop and Lou reed the end of ziggy stardust and the friendship between david and iggy good film great music ..

[@vincenzoraspavolo4159]

the sexiness is killin me

[@warmjet69]

why not? love seeing this song redone, even if a little fripper-challenged ...

[@Culumacilinte]

Well, hello! That's definitely a different version from the one that made the final cut. How groovy to see that. Anyway- amazing song; definitely one of my favourites from Velvet Goldmine. Mmm.

[@brittyn]

This is the version on my American DVD…

[@susannebuchholz785]

Great song!Thank you very much for uplading!👍🏻🤘🏻

[@timezoner]

He certainly was a dead ringer for Cobain in some of the scenes.

[@MAXI777ification]

The last film i saw in Italy before i move to london....just to understand better another point of view(i love wemen,all of them)

[@jonbecker03]

the idea in velvet goldmine was that the music was supposed to be a "pastiche" of glam rock. it wasn't supposed to be "authentic." just the opposite. it was more like a camp parody of what was ALREADY camp..............

[@laurastreit255]

David Bowie and Mick Ronson approve

[@amyrobinson6855]

Love this song love these two my ideal 3sum

[@ChicoChicruto]

Yay

[@imagewurks]

Actually, Bowie did become a "good" singer. China Girl? Blue Jean? I honestly preferred his work when he was off-key a little bit, say "Ziggy Stardust" era. Must be the punk left in me. He's outrageously talented. I saw him once, his "Serious Moonlight" tour. My girlfriend pretty much dragged me kicking and screaming all the while telling me that I wouldn't fuck this up for her . . . and I was floored.

[@patricio1841]

GOOD.

[@Awaitingonyouall]

1:47 Obi Wan Kenobi stop this!!

[@locote031]

thats the cutume ziggy stardust would wear

[@bootheavy]

This guy dosen't have enough of the characteristic style inherent in Eno's voice to sing this. He sounds more like a young boy going through puberty. Okay, I'll stop with the criticism now.

[@sonofjuda777]

This has to be about David bowie hmm

[@eden19966]

yeah it’s like very common knowledge since 23 years now. Just try google.

[@jeanmichellelaurent]

Not exactly, it’s about glam rock they are just characters based on Bowie

[@eden19966]

@@jeanmichellelaurent Yeah. That´s what I wrote.

[@jeanmichellelaurent]

@@eden19966 the film still isn’t strictly about Bowie

[@bootheavy]

For one thing he's making a sexual/sucking gesture on another man's penis so that throws "sweet kid" out the window. The singing on this dosen't carry any of the characteristic "smooth or cinical weirdness inherent with either Eno, Bowie, or Ferry for that matter. It sounds "flat". I would like also to correct a former entry about Bowie refusing to allow any of music to be played - it's because he's doing his movie version of Ziggy Stardust and not because he finds the movie repulsive. - I do.

[@robosushi]

@malissasweety the term is LOOSELY. and it sucked. There was a reason why Bowie wanted nothing to do with it

[@LusciousTwinkle]

It's was because it made him look bad...and it didn't suck...it was fabulous.

[@bootheavy]

Boy this sucks compared to the original. What is the aim here? This resembles more New York Dolls' exchibitionism rather than Brian Eno's mere attempt at experimenting with new sounds and concepts. This is probably why David Bowie refused to have any of his music actually put into the film. Adrogeny was a concept explored as an ideal in Glam but they're using it here as the central focus.

[@breadcrust4006]

That’s why it’s called a remake, it’s not supposed to sound like the original

[@ynesvelveteen]

it's about Bowie and Iggy
