i think it is a remarkable song...not least because the backing track was stolen by the bbc as the 'blankety-blank' theme-tune. bowie's vocal is amazing.
Compared to the sparser first mix, this is the definitive sparkling version.At the time I didn't think much of it,but around '73 everything Bowie was a must.
Oh yes...i love these collection of songs...all the early stuff, the real early ones, though i do have a vested intrested, as my mother, used to hang and see David Jones, and The Manish boys, so lucky me has had all these recordings plus many more, some quite rare i do belive...though id never sell. Just thought id let you in, to a nuget of information. Thanks all and do enjoy these records...and try When Im Five...a great lil DB song from way back when. Blessings all..
@racyweb i say so too, it foreshadows worrying trends, albeit more mundanely terrestrial ones, not quite loverboy exploitative but certainly stalky type 'offer you can't not be seduced by' vibe.
-- he pioneered performance futures bubbles, securitzed the hell out of his coming appeal ... and here's a first for you, google "bowie bond bubble" and it should lead right back to this very sentence a while. how loopy is that? He has a problem w sustainability. It's his dreamspell karma. 3eagle.
he really was ahead of me and my crowd .... the pizzeria remodelment financing vouchers for future pizzas and all that came later
but as far as right and wrong ... whole earth catalog type schiz, David too is on about leaning on apple trees as easily as leaning back into his rocketcradle .. It seems he can't be bothered or find the time to make up his mind. (ab)using the wood to sell the smoke is what usually happens, with him it seems reflexive.
ps five years later this guy was singing' life on mars' etc in a brilliant album, called hunky dory !!! One of the top 5 albums of all time The beatles s peppers and floyds, barrett inspired! Piper are alongside bowies early brilliant stuff
Hey, if you've still got some of these photos, perhaps you could send them to me? I'm a rather large David Bowie fan. I'm just picky on what I favorite, thats why my favorites are so bare.
Ohh RACYWEB, but I love you at any time; Persons like you, here, increase the joy of living.
This video, I think, really sums up your purest Essence, which is closely correlated to the more inner and expansive matrix of David (I suppose): carefree, fresh, ironic, iridescent, volcanic.
To smile so free still, in this world, is by Aliens ... LOL
Dear sweet wonderful Fiorella. I am happy you enjoyed my little video and thank you so much for your words of wisdom and deep generosity. I love you all the time, it is always such a pleasure, so THANK YOU so much :-DD

@poetpiet .. try jebcorliss by the way ... and see him
sheer just above ground at 122mph in a flying squirrelsuit. .. Anyhoo, dave

nothing so much as themselves and therefore can't get even get that right
