Andy Warhol (song)

"Andy Warhol" is a song written by the English singer-songwriter David Bowie in 1971 for the album Hunky Dory.

The album track opens with a series of strange electronic tones which fades into studio chatter in which producer Ken Scott mispronounces Warhol's name and Bowie repeatedly corrects him.

The song is memorable for a distinctive repeated riff played by Mick Ronson on acoustic guitar.

A November 1996 tour rehearsal recording of the song, which originally aired on a BBC radio broadcast in 1997, was released in 2020 on the album ChangesNowBowie.

[10] Rock band Stone Temple Pilots covered the song in their MTV Unplugged performance in 1993.
