The Original
From the album Hunky DoryDavid Bowie: Web site MySpace
DJ comments: Like I'm not going to embed the performance with Robert Smith from Bowie's 50th birthday bash. — cwc
According to my good friend Wikipedia, this song was inspired by Buddhism and Nietzsche's concept of Übermensch (Superman/Overman) -- man is something which should be overcome. In honor, Chris and I have created our own branch of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and will be burning incense in studio. — BJ
The Cover
From the ep Whatever's Cool with MeDinosaur Jr.: Web site MySpace
DJ comments: This isn't a lyrically faithful cover, but cool all the same (and the second time it's been played on the Soup...some letters are tougher than others). — cwc
Other covers include the Portuguese version heard on the Aquatic Life soundtrack and Seal's MTV recording. Mmm... Seal. — BJ
