I like this song more and more every time I listen to it.
I love that the opening sounds like an orchestra getting ready...that tapping sound of a conductor at a podium.
I love the horns, the handclaps, those oh oh oh background vocals that come in during the second verse.
I freaking love that chorus, mouthing the words, moving to it.
Like I am very excited by and about this song. There is something so pleasing about it, so strange and slightly off-kilter. As I said in my post, I find that the music of the seventies goes in so many different directions...Bowie manages to do that in a three-minute song.
(Slash, the album art. Like. Yes. That Bowie haircut!)
I want to get to know Bowie more.
This is lovely. Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting Bowie again, haha :)
