National Velvet is a novel by Enid Bagnold (1889–1981), first published in 1935.
Plot summary
"National Velvet" is the story of a 14-year-old girl named Velvet Brown, who rides her horse to victory in the Grand Nationalsteeplechase. The horse which Velvet trains and rides in the Grand National is named The Piebald, because it is piebald colour.
The novel focuses on the ability of ordinary persons, particularly women, to accomplish great things. Velvet is a teenager in the late 1920s, living in a small English coastal village in Sussex, dreaming of one day owning many horses. She is a high-strung, shy, nervous child with a delicate stomach. Her mother is a wise, taciturn woman who was once famous for swimming the English Channel; her father is a butcher.
Her best friend is her father's assistant, Mi (Michael) Taylor, whose father – as Mrs. Brown's swimming coach – helped her cross the channel. Mi formerly worked in stables and is familiar with the horse racing world. One day they both watch The Piebald jump over a five-foot-high cobbled fence to get out of a field. Mi says, in passing, that "a horse like that'd win the National". Velvet becomes obsessed with winning the horse in an upcoming raffle and riding him to greatness.
National Velvet are a Canadiangoth rock band, popular in the 1980s and 1990s.
The band members have included vocalist Maria Del Mar, guitarist Mark Crossley, guitarist Tim Welch, bassist Mark Storm (real name Mark Erickson) and drummer Garry Flint. They came together after a chance meeting between Del Mar and Storm in an alley during a party in Toronto, Ontario. Six months later, they released an independent, self-titled EP with original drummer Ken Sinclair and saxophonist Chris Reis. Storm, Del Mar and Sinclair lived together and ran a rehearsal space at 50 Carroll Street called the 'Jam Factory' used by many Canadian and International acts, such as Jeff Healey, Lisa Del Belo, Paris, A Neon Rome, Honeymoon Suite, And Mott the Hoople with Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson. British guitarist Mark Thwaite (later to be guitarist for British goth rockers The Mission and Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy) also joined National Velvet briefly in the fall of 1985 and recorded demos of 'Behind the Door' and 'Victim of Fashion' at the band's Carroll Street rehearsal space. Thwaite relocated back to the United Kingdom in early 1986.
I don´t know why this band is labeled in many sites as gothic rock, they are awesome but their sound is not goth rock, anyway, long time since I fixed the sound on a retro music video, hope you like it.

Would I falter your happiness? Said the darkness to the light I could be much more than mistress Said the sunlight to the night This is not for the happiness Much more likely for the frail This one's for my drunken pirates Sailing oceans and drinking ale Casa Del, Disco And it sales our to the see And brings along the waves And the sound of light to me Said it brings along the waves And the sound of light to me What a sound rings from the trees What life blows through your hair? What type of dreams do you dream? Do you side with truth or dare? If you placed peace on a plateau Would your scales tip black or white? And if they threw you a lions claw Would you run? Or stay to fight? Casa Del Disco What a sound rings from the trees And you can feel the touch of stillness Explain to the birds and bees You can feel the touch of stillness Explain truth to the birds and bees And one day The skies will grow colder And if you leave me
