Stephanie Says
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Stephanie Says" is a song by The Velvet Underground originally recorded in 1968 and released on VU in 1985. In 2001, the song was used in the Wes Anderson film The Royal Tenenbaums.
The song was loosely inspired by the group's manager at the time, Steven Sesnick ("Stephanie" being the female form of "Steven"). Lou Reed rewrote the lyrics and re-named it "Caroline Says (II)" for his 1973 solo album Berlin. While vastly different in tone, it retained the refrain, "It's so cold in Alaska".
