I never noticed those strings before, and I must have listened to this 100 times.

this came out before Bowie's cover of China Girl.

I don't remember the original sounding like this, did Bowie Rip off The Psychedelic Furs?

Wouldn't put it past him.

Track 3 - Run and Run.

by Fangirl Three Wed May 13, 2020 7:09 pm

Run & Run. The first of my two most absolute favourite songs at the time.

I think things were converging and diverging at once.

All the New-Romantics, Blitz Kids and post-punk synthies were all Bowie fanatics at a time when the man himself was moving away from the sound that'd inspired them all.

Ashes to Ashes, that was Bovvie's NR song, then he went off to make largely unconvincing pop-soul.

This sounds a bit like Pretty in Pink.

by Nightjar Wed May 13, 2020 7:10 pm

This is fairly pedestrian compared to the tracks 1 and 2.

His voice is too low in the mix.
