Acabo de saber de fuente bien informada (uno de los componentes) que el grupo español de los 80´s y primeros 90´s Comité Cisne tomaron el nombre del título de esta canción

@cgdpedraza gracias por el aporte!

This is an amazing song.

This has always been one of my favourite Bowie songs. I don't understand why it is so overlooked. Clearly much better than the Space Oddity.

Straordinario esempio di classe superiore nella stesura della composizione. Bowie sembra attingere a Dylan da una parte, ma in fondo risulta credibile e genuino perchè credo questo pezzo sia molto sentito dal nostro eroe. La canzone cambia in un crescendo davvero molto emozionante e poi nel finale esplode nel dichiarare quello che tutti veorremmo fare: noi vogliamo vivere....Grandissimo David.

@mediascribble Bowie was barely 20 when writing this amazing stuff as well as doing his own arrangements and playing the various instruments.

If there is true genius in music, he was that at a young age.

This song is ultimate Bowie. He was touched with genius when he wrote it. He surpassed all his contemporaries becoming a literary agent of the times (Reed, Mott, Warhol Roxy, Stones-they only could hold his apron strings and watch greatness before them.

The first alternative music song.

This song and "We are Hungry Men" both give an interesting glimpse into Bowie's political mindset back in the late 60's

[Spider4642]

Absolutley his best ever!

@Jitpring Let's face it, at nearly 10 min. this song would hardly ever get radio play, if ever. You would have to buy the album (CD. Whatever.) to ever hear this song or find it here.

As far as "Utopianism kills", you have hit it on the head, my friend.

Whenever I run into someone I haven't seen in a while, I always quote this song when they ask me what how things have been.

"So much has gone and little is new"
