An amazing bit of pseudo-soundtrack music.

Like the opening track, the title acts as the vocal content.

Like an upbeat epitaph.

I like the kick drum. Shame they didn't use a drum machine.

In modern music I don't think an harmonica has been better deployed.

It's not like her to be angry to the point of boycotting a commentary.

This is, by the way, incredible.

Bowie starts making up words.

This is going on too, oh, it's over.

by Guest Sun Jul 26, 2020 8:57 pm

Is this an instrumental?

by Nightjar Sun Jul 26, 2020 8:57 pm

This is the track that starts sounding like the Tron soundtrack.

by Guest Sun Jul 26, 2020 8:57 pm

Is this a long album?

Spooky version of See Saw Margery Daw.

I have always loved this Bowie vocal outro.

His love of Jazz let loose via free improvisation.
