For the Mystery Science Theater 3000 spacecraft, see Satellite of Love (MST3K). "Satellite of Love" Single by Lou Reed from the album Transformer B-side "Vicious" Released February 1973 Genre Rock Length 3:42 Label RCA Writer(s) Lou Reed Producer David Bowie and Mick Ronson Lou Reed singles chronology "Walk on the Wild Side" (1972) "Satellite of Love" (1973) "Vicious" (1973) "Satellite of Love" is one of Lou Reed's best-known songs from his solo career. It is the second single from his 1972 album Transformer. At the time of its release it did not achieve any chart success, though it later became a staple of his concerts and compilation albums. Background and recording The song is about a man who observes a satellite launch on television and contemplates what Reed describes as feelings of "the worst kind of jealousy" about his unfaithful girlfriend. The chorus is: I watched it for a little while I love to watch things on tv Satellite of love Satellite of love David Bowie, who produced the album, can be heard providing background vocals. Often considered a Reed solo song, it was originally recorded by The Velvet Underground. The band played the song at concerts and recorded it during the 1970 sessions for their album Loaded, though like many of the songs recorded during those sessions, it does not appear on the album. The existence of the VU version was largely unknown and even forgotten by the band members themselves until the release of the box set Peel Slowly and See in 1995. It also appears on the 1997 Rhino Records 2-CD version of the Loaded album. In addition to being more up-tempo, the VU version contains a significant change in the lyrics. The lines: I've been told that you've been bold With Harry, Mark, and John Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday to Thursday With Harry, Mark, and John were originally recorded as: I've been told that you've been bold With Winkin, Blinkin, and Nod Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday to Thursday With Winkin, Blinkin, and Nod On the original lyrics, Reed said "Jesus. Best left forgotten. Obviously, I didn't want to use real names yet. I probably wanted to make sure I wasn't using a name that really meant something to me." Cover versions U2 released a cover version on the "One" singles in 1992. The song was given added exposure in 1992-1993 by its regular use on U2's satellite-themed Zoo TV Tour, where Bono sang it as a duet with a pre-recorded video image of Reed (and on a few occasions Reed appeared on stage to sing it in person). A remake of "Satellite of Love", titled "Satellite of Love '04", was released in the United Kingdom in 2004, making it to #10 on the UK Singles Chart. Actress and sometime musician Milla Jovovich performed a cover for the film The Million Dollar Hotel with the MDH band - a group whose members included Bono and The Edge. Other artists who have covered the song include The Bravery, Perry Farrell, Martin Plaza, The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain, Porno for Pyros, Eurythmics, The Polyamorous Affair, Kenny Young And The Eggplants and Danny Saber. Kowtow Popof covered the song for After Hours: a Tribute to the Music of Lou Reed, released by Wampus Multimedia in 2003. The version references the comedy television series Mystery Science Theater 3000, whose spacecraft was named after the song, by inserting the names of some of the show’s characters into the lyrics, as well as adding samples from some of the show’s host segments. The version was a collaboration with electronic rock band Hitchcock Blonde who later included it on their 2006 debut, Soul Button. Cultural references The Ron & Fez Show close every show with the song. Sometimes the show's cast and producers will sing along. The song is used and discussed several times throughout the 2009 movie Adventureland. The Satellite of Love spaceship is the primary setting of the TV comedy series Mystery Science Theater 3000. The song itself, with lyrics reflecting the characters ("Gypsy, Tom, and Crow" instead of "Harry, Mark, and John", for example), was sung at the end of all live shows featuring the cast. v · d · eLou Reed Discography Studio albums Lou Reed · Transformer · Berlin · Sally Can't Dance · Metal Machine Music · Coney Island Baby · Rock and Roll Heart · Street Hassle · The Bells · Growing Up in Public · The Blue Mask · Legendary Hearts · New Sensations · Mistrial · New York · Magic and Loss · Set the Twilight Reeling · Ecstasy · The Raven · Hudson River Wind Meditations Collaborations Le Bataclan '72 · Songs for Drella Live albums Rock 'n' Roll Animal · Lou Reed Live · Live: Take No Prisoners · Live in Italy · Live in Concert · Retro · Perfect Night: Live in London · American Poet · Animal Serenade · Berlin: Live At St. Ann's Warehouse  · The Creation of the Universe Compilations Walk on the Wild Side: The Best of Lou Reed · Rock and Roll Diary: 1967-1980 · City Lights · Walk on the Wild Side & Other Hits · Different Times: Lou Reed in the '70s · The Best of Lou Reed & Velvet Underground · A Retrospective · Perfect Day · The Definitive Collection · The Very Best of Lou Reed · Legendary Lou Reed · NYC Man (The Ultimate Collection 1967-2003) Box sets Between Thought and Expression: The Lou Reed Anthology Related articles The Velvet Underground · John Cale · Nico v · d · eThe Velvet Underground John Cale · Sterling Morrison · Lou Reed · Maureen Tucker · Doug Yule Willie Alexander · Angus MacLise · Walter Powers · Billy Yule Studio albums The Velvet Underground & Nico · White Light/White Heat · The Velvet Underground · Loaded · Squeeze Live albums Live at Max's Kansas City · 1969 · Live MCMXCIII · Final V.U. · The Quine Tapes Box sets and out-takes VU · Another View · What Goes On · Peel Slowly and See · The Velvet Underground & Nico (Deluxe Edition) Compilations Andy Warhol's Velvet Underground featuring Nico · The Best of The Velvet Underground: Words and Music of Lou Reed · Chronicles · The Best of Lou Reed & Velvet Underground · The Best of The Velvet Underground: The Millennium Collection · Rock and Roll: an Introduction to The Velvet Underground · The Very Best of the Velvet Underground · Gold · Playlist Plus Songs "After Hours" · "All Tomorrow's Parties" · "European Son" · "Femme Fatale" · "Here She Comes Now" · "Heroin" · "I Heard Her Call My Name" · "I'll Be Your Mirror" · "I'm Waiting for the Man" · "Lady Godiva's Operation" · "New Age" · "Pale Blue Eyes" · "Rock & Roll" · "Run Run Run" · "Sister Ray" · "Stephanie Says" · "Sunday Morning" · "Sweet Jane" · "The Black Angel's Death Song" · "The Gift" · "There She Goes Again" · "Venus in Furs" · "White Light/White Heat" Related articles Discography · Songs · A Symphony of Sound · Walter De Maria · Exploding Plastic Inevitable · Nico · Steve Sesnick · Andy Warhol · Tom Wilson · Heaven & Hell · Fifteen Minutes · Songs for Drella
