Epic ballad on human decadence. By a melancholic vision, the chaos painted through a quick sequence of lucid frescoes. Passionate crescendo, vividly touching, very beautiful Bowie's voice.

That gave me chills, my god what an artist ! This has always been my favorite Bowie song since I discovered the rise and fall of ziggy stardust and the spiders from Mars when I was 20. This live version is remarkable, his voice got better with age. I love when he points to someone in the crowd as he sings “don’t think you knew you were in this song”, made me tear up a bit

I saw David at Anaheim Stadium, California. In 1983. Kool suit, sitting on a stool. And singing to a glass skull. The laser beams hit the glass skull and what a show. His elegance, his appearance, his voice. Him. I learned that a low voice is as badass as any highs I've ever sung or heard. Pure class act. For sure. D. D.
