In reply to:
Diamond Dogs......I recently saw a really great live version of it by Beck in Dublin. Maybe I preferred it because it sounded less Stonesy.
Based on Moulin Rouge, it's certainly a top 20 Bowie cover imo (and now I am really sorry I missed his Melbourne show). It almost sounds more Prince than it does Stones....which is really not a bad thing in this case. The lyrics are clearly Bowie (thank god) but they also suit Beck's style very well too.
As for this thread, there's some VERY interesting results. I think most people have pulled out the real interesting ones. It seems I have similar tastes to the mass of TWers as I rarely find myself disagreeing with the majority of these results on an individual song basis. The only real weird thing for me is Hours yet I can also remember the time when I rated that album very well all the same.
