"She Shook Me Cold" is a song written by the English singer-songwriter David Bowie in 1970 for the album The Man Who Sold the World.
Mick Ronson's solo guitar is influenced by hard rock as played by Cream, Led Zeppelin and Jeff Beck.
[3] Its title bears a resemblance to the Muddy Waters song "You Shook Me," which was recorded by Jeff Beck for the then recent album Truth.
Reviewing The Man Who Sold the World in 2016, Rolling Stone's Douglas Wolk described "She Shook Me Cold" as "straight-up heavy-metal".
