David bowie, aint that the guy who used to make these terrible, crappy songs like 'china girl'? Yes, indeed. But he also had some briliant moments. Very briliant moments even.
And besides being a briliant song, i can´t help thinking that space oddity is realy about drugs (in a metaphoric sort of way).

What's wrong with china girl? That was not a bad song.

I never get bored of this one:

Awesome stuff.

I'm was a little surprised to hear David Bowie and terrible in the same sentence.

I'll see your china girl and raise you this little number

I love Bowie.

If I remember correctly this song can be about his 'relation' with heroin. The countdown could be about shooting the heroin, then after that it starts to work with the euphoric music parts.

Later on in Ashes to Ashes you will hear him talk about Major Tom again; "We know Major Tom's a junkie, strung out in heaven's high, hitting an all-time low".


Kind regards,

Well. I´m a bowie fan and for my idols i tend to raise the bar a little. If it would have been a justin bieber song i would agree that it´s not so bad.
