“Here Shall We Live… In This Terrible Town… Where The Price For Out Eyes… Shall Squeeze Them Tight Like A Fist…” — DAVID BOWIE (“Slow Burn” (2002))

…And The Walls Shall Have Eyes…

…And The Doors Shall Have Ears…

…But We’ll Dance In The Dark…

…And They’ll Play With Our Lives…

…Like A Slow Burn…

…Leading Us On And On And On…

…Like a Slow Burn…

…Turning Us Round And Round And Round…

…But Who Are We…

…So Small In Times Such As These…

…Slow Burn…

…Slow Burn. …

…Oh, These Are The Days…

…These Are The Strangest Of All…

…These Are The nights…

…These Are The Darkest To Fall…

…But Who Knows?…

…Echoes In Tenement Halls…

…Who Knows?…

…Though The Years Snare Them All…

…Like A Slow Burn…

…Leading Us On And On And On…

…Like A Slow Burn…

…Twirling Us Round And Round And Upside-Down…

…There’s Fear Overhead…

…There’s Fear Overground…

…Slow Burn…

…Slow Burn. …

I’ve Always Referred To…

HEATHEN

…As The FORGOTTEN…

DAVID BOWIE

…Album.

It Was Released In 2002…

…And I Remain The ONLY Person In My Little World Who Actually Owns It.

Some Of The Songs I Sincerely Didn’t Dig So Much.

BUT BUT BUT…

…There ARE A Few Choice Tunes That Are Simply WONDERFUL.

So…

…For Now…

…I’ve Chosen To Highlight The Song…

SLOW BURN

…As It Was Widely Accepted To Be The Best Tune On The Album.

Y’all Should Totally Give It A Listen, Sometime.
