‘Queen Of All The Tarts (Overture)’ was used as David Bowie’s pre-show music during A Reality Tour in 2003-4.

The song was recorded in New York in early 2003 during the sessions for the Reality album.

The initial release of Reality saw two editions of the album: a single CD, and a double-disc set containing the studio outtakes ‘Fly’, ‘Queen Of All The Tarts (Overture)’, and a 2002 re-recording of ‘Rebel Rebel’.
