The story behind the song

This acoustic song is a tribute from David Bowie to one of his early artistic inspirations, Andy Warhol. The album version famously opens with studio chatter, where Bowie playfully corrects his producer's mispronunciation of Warhol's name before bursting into laughter as the song begins. It features a distinctive repeated acoustic guitar riff, and Bowie even performed it for Warhol in person. At its heart, it's a musical portrait, capturing the essence of an artist through another's admiring eyes.
