"Velouria" is a song by Pixies from their 1990 album "Bossanova". “Velouria” was released as the lead single from Bossanova in July 1990 and became the band's first Top 40 hit in the United Kingdom. The song features extensive use of theremin. It was featured on the influential 1990 Madchester compilation album "Happy Daze". n the video, 23 seconds of footage (the time needed for the band members to reach the camera) is slowed in order to last for the duration of the song.[4] However, the effort in filming the video was in vain; Pixies did not play "Velouria" on Top of the Pops while the single was in the charts.[5] Black Francis said of the lyrics to the song in an interview with SongFacts, “It's folklore based; the Rosicrucians of 1920s San Jose California had some pretty interesting ideas.” The lyrics allude to the mythical lost continent of Lemuria and the Rosicrucians' belief that its survivors lived beneath Mount Shasta. As "Velouria" was climbing up the UK Top 40, the band was offered a spot on Top of the Pops. However, a BBC rule stated that only singles with videos could be performed on the show. To counter this, a cheap video was made with the band being filmed running down a quarry.
