Take it off right away. Come back to it later. To hear you describe "Sweet Thing"/"Candidate"/"Sweet Thing (reprise)" as borderline Rocky Horror just pains me no end.
They're not fucking worthy
In all fairness, in the 11 years since I wrote that, I have come to love Diamond Dogs. And I do love Bowie.

It's all "Kendrick Lamar this" and "Kendrick Lamar that" with him these days, give it a rest Moddie
