surprised/impressed by bogus man's showing - I used to find that song super hard work but then it clicked, I get it now
amazing that a song as good as grey lagoons can come last

I used to like, but not love, "The Bogus Man" but then a few years later I really fell for Bowie's "Station to Station" and that long, hypnotic, grinding art-funk-noise.

yeah it's that long supple jam section in the middle that totally makes it work

I'm kind of surprised, tbh. "Dream Home" is not one of my faves on this album. It's like their "Freebird" or something (not that I dislike it or "Freebird").

Bogus Man voter here. What a weird, beautiful thing.

Bogus Man was the most immediate track for me when I bought this album... just sounds so damn cool and otherworldly

Wow that version of Trash, so Avalon-esque when I figured it was written to be fundamentally a new waver. Want to hear the hot jazz-age version next.

Voted “Editions of You.” The synth solo never fails to knock me out. I heard FYP for the first time the same day I had my first listens to Miles Davis’ Pangaea and Scrawl’s He’s Drunk. That was a good day.

poor Ferry stopped running to play the organ solo years ago; these days he doesn't leave the keyboards.

I voted for Strictly Confidential just because of my mood that day - I'll take any song on this perfect album. My question is: do you think David Bowie CONSCIOUSLY modeled 'Lazarus' on 'Strictly Confidential'?
