Shame, I could talk Bowie all night (but I'm sure the blog will make up for it - I bet you move like a tiger on vaseline)

Also from Queen Bitch -

"And I'm phoning a cab
Because my stomach feels small
There's a taste in my mouth
And it's no taste at all"

Did Brandon Flowers credit DB on Mr Brightside?

I couldn't resist looking back, Dio. :-)

Yeah that's another great verse. It's such a scene song. Very London of the time, I do love it (and Rebel Rebel is one of my other favourites - but that's partly the riff)

and now I really MUST write my track session up

Is it London? I thought it was more New York, especially as it was a homage to Lou Reed and The Velvet Underground. The characters are very much walking on the wild side, being bold with Harry, Mark, and John.

You have a point. But the whole of Hunky Dory is very London still don't you think? And the frock coat, satin and tat sound so very 60s King's Road.....

I saw a link to this thread in a related threads box and spent an enjoyable couple of minutes reading back :-)

This was going to be a blog, but I thought it would be good to have a wider audience, assuming this ...
