the operatic horror of the western male!!
i think this song more than any other showcases iggy’s vocal versatility and range. snarling, caged, paranoid, ironic, wailing, tragic (like marlon brando)
i stumble into town
just like a sacred cow
visions of swastikas in my head
and plans for everyone
i'm so serious this song is actually insanely catchy. not my choice genre of music but gaga has this magical countenance to her where she literally never misses and always ends up putting out something culturally significant.
I COULD BE YOUR TYPE FROM YOUR ZOMBIE BITE !!
i found this song on a whim on YouTube a couple years ago and it changed my LIFE. They covered and took OVER the whole song and totally brought a new perspective to it.
Love the song and the lyrics (she has a LOT of great stuff...check out Cowboy Gangster Politician too). Sample lyric: I'm so glamorous someone should sue me...

if im ever in a funk i throw this on and take a hot girl walk or a nice drive. it’s just one of the best feel good songs ever imo.
this is probably one of my favorite new york albums, if not #1 for me.
i paint pictures / to remember / you’re too beautiful / to put into words
Probably my fave Bowie album- or at least the one that helped me locate a personal resonance with Bowie. It’s jagged, fragmented and manic- written coming off of a nasty coke addiction in Berlin (the coke addiction is NOT where I found personal resonance btw). Where in the hell am I, seems to be the question.
Always Crashing In The Same Car might be the best Bowie song. The poetics of repeated mistakes.
with the lights low! with the lights off! with a candle! i just did it so that means you should too! cleanse your psyche, there’s mental dirt and grime too, man! Let it wash down the drain!
