Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2005 3:10 amThat's one's of those songs that seems to have dozens of versions...and good luck finding the one you want!
I gave up. LOL...I have two already and their STILL not the one I wanted.

Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2005 3:25 amMaybe this is from the movie with Nastasja Kinski. I think the movie came out before "Let's Dance". I like the slow version. It's a great showcase for Bowie's voice. Is the movie any good? Ms. Kinski looks hot on the poster.

I have the soundtrack, if you're interested.

Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2005 1:41 pmI have ONLY heard the version that starts out slow and dirge-y, then kicks in with the jammin' music. I didn't know there were others? Anyway, I LOVE this song! It was one of the 1st Bowie songs I'd heard, and I took to it instantly. This version, the one that starts out slow and dirge-y, is on his 2-CD Greatest Hits comp.
