"Venus" is a song by the Dutch rock band Shocking Blue, released in 1969. Written by Robbie van Leeuwen, the song blends psychedelic rock with pop elements, featuring a catchy melody and powerful vocals by Mariska Veres. The lyrics describe a mesmerizing, goddess-like woman who embodies beauty, love, and desire—drawing inspiration from the Roman goddess Venus.

The song became an international hit, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1970, making Shocking Blue the first Dutch band to achieve this milestone. Over the years, Venus has been covered by various artists, most notably Bananarama in 1986, further solidifying its place as a pop-rock classic.
