I've just listened to David Bowie's "Queen Bitch" about 15 times in a row.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Do I get a prize or something?

[Midlodemocrat]

1. No, but thanks for the earworm.

:grr:

[stinkeefresh]

2. Now try the Velvet Underground catalog

upon which that marvelous song is fully based.

[warrens]

3. Oooo, you betcha

She's so swishy in her satin and tat, in her frock coat and bippity boppity hat, oh god I could do better than THAT!

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

4. I'm up on the eleventh floor

And I'm watching the cruisers below
My heart's in the basement
My weekend's
at an all time low
He's down on the street
And he's trying hard
to pull sister Flo

'Cause she's hoping to score
So I can't see her
letting him go
Walk out of her heart
Walk out of her mind


She's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat
and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than that

She's an old-time ambassador
Of sweet talking, night walking games
And she's known in the darkest clubs
For pushing ahead of the dames
If she says she can do it
Then she can do it,
she don't make false claims
But she's a Queen,
and such are queens
That your laughter
is sucked in their brains
Now she's leading him on
And she'll lay him right down
But it could have been me
Yes, it could have been me
Why didn't I say,
why didn't I say, no, no, no



So I lay down a while
And I look at my hotel wall
Oh the cot is so cold
It don't feel like no bed at all
Yeah I lay down a while
And I look at my hotel wall
But he's down on the street
So I throw both his bags down the hall
And I'm phoning a cab
'Cause my stomach feels small
There's a taste in my mouth
And it's no taste at all

It could have been me
Oh yeah, it could have been me
Why didn't I say,
Why didn't I say, no, no, no

5. ah nothing like Bowie

it's a good earworm!

[Zuni]

6. Best Bowie earworm:

Moonage Daydream off of Ziggy Stardust

[tigereye]

7. mmmm

I like Rebel Rebel, Suffragette City, and Cracked Actor best, meself. I'm not able to pull that one up in my head, Z. I'll have to look about.

[Zuni]

8. "I'm an alligator"

that is how it starts

"put your ray gun to my head...press your space face next to mine, girl...etc etc"

Cracked Actor is a good one...as is anything off of Ziggy like Suffragette City. Best David Bowie by far is his early 70s glam rock.
