We've got workers residing the house right now and their radio is playing "Ice Ice Baby." Even taking his biographical lie out of the equation, it is just so damned limp. Everyone who bought a copy should have to perform penance.
It’s a smart hook/sample. That’s about all I can give it.
And it gets tiring very quickly. Mind you, I feel the same way about "Under Pressure."
Hugely lauded but never got it myself. A bit like Heroes, another massively overrated Bowie song.
Despite the constant spats and cheating, I can never divorce you.

Under Pressure is an absolutely powerhouse song to drive to. Top 10 "open road" song, easy.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Just ahead of Dead Cities by the Exploited.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I mean, yeah, but Dead Cities is really a top 10 lovemaking song.

Kind of sad, but that's almost what Record Store Day is turning in to. People grab anything they think they can post on ebay and collectors are left deciding whether or not they want to get gouged in order to own a copy.
