It was the last change in new direction before he started sounding bored. I think let's dance was really the end of the classic period.

By the way, did you sneak in a little Captain Planet reference in your review of Station To Station, or was your choice of words (“By their powers combined”) purely coincidental?

(Here's the Captain Planet theme – with visuals, inexplicably, from Xena – for clarification).

Are you hinting that David Bowie, at the time of Station To Station, had the power to save the planet?

David Bowie = Captain Planet.

Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
GO, Planet!

“By your powers combined, I am <strike>Captain Planet</strike> David Bowie!”

<strike>Captain Planet</strike> David Bowie, He's our hero
Gonna take pollution down to zero
He's our powers magnified
And he's fighting on the planet's side
<strike>Captain Planet</strike> David Bowie, He's our hero
Gonna take pollution down to zero
Gonna help him put asunder
Bad guys who like to loot and plunder

“You'll pay for this, <strike>Captain Planet</strike> David Bowie!”

We're the Planeteers
You can be one, too
Cuz saving our planet is the thing to do
Looting and polluting is not the way
Hear what <strike>Captain Planet</strike> David Bowie has to say

“The power is yours!”

Your dad has probably told you what a Bowie fanatic I was growing up. This was a very well written, perceptive look at his work. Thank you for reigniting the pleasure of so many songs that had faded to the archives of my memory. My collection pretty much ends at Scary Monsters so I'm looking forward to your next installments to see if I might find some overlooked gems! Brilliant!!
