Then I can infer that "meh" means funky tune with seriously delicious rhythm guitar?  Or perhaps dancing song by global trendsetter?

The word "meh" is NOT in a dictionary...
It's a silly, stupid, contrived invention of the internet age...

AFAIK, Bowie's touring days are over. Heart problems I've heard.

My favorite bit in this song is towards the end when he sings "I've got believers" with a kind of hysterical despair.

This song is NOT on "Station to Station", it's on that crappy "Lodger" album.  Sorry Dave...

Love Eno's contributions, but lets not forget who was in charge nor lets not forget Tony Visconti.

I love Bowie, but he sounds so much like Byrne (who I can't really tolerate), I don't like this song much.

Lodger was a fantastic LP and way overlooked in Bowie's catalog! For those who hear Byrne or Syvian here do your frickin homework!{#Stupid}

Lodger Also, to nigelr and copymonkey, the Wiki page says it was Belew's solo.

Over the past 20 years I've seen D Bowie 4 times in concert. Most of his work is truly excellent and groundbreaking. Excellent artist.

However, I call it like I hear it - this little gem gets more than it deserves at 2.

C'mon Tex - where is your usually clever wordplay. You can do better as you take on the fifth (or was it sixth) most influential artist of all time (VH1 poll).


 

To be specific, it was a poll of other performers and artists as to who that came before them was the most influential.  The results in order: Beatles, Stones, Hendryx, Zeppelin, Dylan, James Brown, Bowie, Presley, The Who, The Police

Two that I know you love dearly.

He gets my vote for being the "most fearless artist of all time". The man has changed his style so many times, and he is consistently excellent.

LZ 1, previously before that day had only known my dad's vast array of mambo, samba, big band, 50's standards, blues, jazz. I thought that was all there was in the world of music.

Then came LZ 1. My mind was officially blown
