  • He looks cool with long hair.

    He looks cool with short hair.

    He looks cool with blond hair.

    He looks cool with red hair.

    He just can't get it wrong even if he tries.

  • Much of Diamond Dogs (including we are the dead, 1984, and Big Brother) are references to George Orwell's 1984. The term savior is directly from the Novel. The acoustic break and closing chant have always chilled me.

    It's more than a reference. He was going to make a stage production of the novel/film but never did ): Most of Diamond Dogs are songs that were going to be incorporated in it.

  • Dimond Dogs was going to be a Rock opera in the fashion of Tommy Wall etc but who knows someday ...but not today

  • I like this song a lot more than the song '1984' he did, which I think sounds too rushed, and fails to really show how amazing his voice sounds.

  • @ih8tbush I love that book so much. Which makes the song ten times more awesome.

  • Fell in love with the lyrics when I was 15. I'm 50 now and totally understand them.

  • @Yakovlievich Agreed. Mr. Bowie is amazing. <3

  • @Yakovlievich

    He looks cool with a neon orange mullet and no eyebrows... no one else could get that one right.

    

  • Yeah, heard he got heavy influnced by George Orwell, and that is how it should be. Write about things that matter, wich very absent in todays mainstream music. More care about how they look on stage and video but the meanings fall falt. David Bowie always love you. Despite you are an old git now ;-)
