Bowie, at least, with One of these that makes me shudder,that means top 100.
The song is a piano and then the rest just dressing it, the melody is brilliant in verses and the firt time you can´t figure out what is coming on the chorus: a great slow beat dropping note by note with dramatic arrangements.
The powerful lyrics deserve full attention, mentioning two 'in fashion' celebrities: that corrupted Mickey Mouse growing because of the capitalism.. and J.Lennon, i can´t imagine why he said Lennon instead of Lenin.. probably because they´ve the same Marxist ideals (see "Working Class Hero" composed a year before "Life on Mars").
What i can´t really find out is where is the parody of Sinatra.
Yes. Figure, full , fashion, find.. evolutionR !

Another great B in music. Beatles, Beach Boys, Byrds, Bethoven, Bach...
Should we change our name to Bunset? Or wouldn't it be better Bemme Batale? ;-)
Is this your favourite of Bowie? I'd always thought it was Rebel, rebel, or maybe Ashes to Ashes :-p
I still don't know which one is my favourite ;-)
"Life on Mars" is probably my favorite song from Bowie. It's a fantastic song from a fantastic album.
